Matt Cain has no idea how he'll handle the dead time of being on the 15-day disabled list which is understandable. The Giants Opening Day starter was placed on the injured list for the first time in his nine-year major league career Friday a day after he suffered a bruised forearm when he was struck by a line drive. Cain said his arm was feeling a bit better Friday but that doesn't ease the sting of being sidelined. "I take pride being able to go out and take the ball every fifth day" he said. "Not being able to do that it will definitely be a different situation to watch somebody else start for you." But Cain also said he understood the Giants' decision. "It probably would have been pushing it to make my next start anyway" he said. "Without any (off) days it would kind of be putting the team in a bind as well."

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

This was a great experience. Arthur our guide was friendly, entertaining and knowledgeable. As we walked at an easy pace around these areas we discussed past and current issues relating to Paris. We quickly felt like a group of friends gaining insights that regular tourist miss out on. We finished at a cafe having a drink with charcuterie. Thanks Arthur for a great afternoon and we highly recommend it to others.
Arthur was a terrific Tour Guide. Found the tour quick and interesting not boring at all.
One of the best tours of our trip. Timothee our guide was well spoken and seemed to enjoy his time relating all the history and interesting facts along the way. He really paid attention to each of us. The pace was by far the most easy to keep up with. It was so much fun, you really felt you spent the afternoon in part of Paris enjoying the sights, tastes, and local activities petanque game in park setting. Awesome life experience. Thanks
Wonderful!, Amazing guide! Loved every minute and saw and learned about so many things we could not have experienced on our own.
There were only three of us on this tour, so we had a really personal experience. Our guide, Tim was delightful and knowledgeable. I felt we got an authentic experience.
awesome guides! great tour!
Our guide was highly knowledgeable about the area. His ability to speak and understand English impressed us! He was open to us asking to see certain places and made sure we had a good time. Very friendly and easy to be with! We would definately recommend this tour.
Arthur, our guide, was punctual, knowledgable and informative. Our needs were catered for extremely well.
What a great walking tour this was! Our guide Arthur was fabulous and gave us a real insight into this beautiful area of Paris. Finishing off with a drink, something to eat and the game of petanque was just great fun - absolutely loved it!
Very interesting. The guide Arthur was very knowledgeable a showed us hidden gems in Paris. Playing boules was great fun
Dr Kannu
Author the guide was FANTASTIC! What a great walking tour and experience!
A really authentic and interesting tour - one that gave us a good understanding of the Left Bank, and one which had depth as well as some lovely twists - given by a personable, engaging and informative tour guide. Really enjoyed the visit to the bar - for charcuterie and drinks - and the game of boules at the end; the setting was unpretentious and it capped what was an enjoyable afternoon.
my first time visiting Paris , and wanted to take this walk since i was staying in the Latin Quarter. I was very enjoyable , our guide met us promptly at 2pm and off we went , he was very imformative and you could tell he really knew a lot this area . We started at the Pantheon, then the university area, Luxembourg gardens, which was gorgeous, and then we stop to have a Charcuterie tasting, i was fun to sit for a while and get to know the other tourist in the group. After that we play a game of Petanque, it was really fun. We walked along the Seine and ended up at Notre Dame. All in all, i thought it was a great way to start my first day in Paris. i recommend this tour to anyone who really wants to get a feel of the Parisian lifestyle.
Had Arthur as a guide for this tour and as with the other tour, very knowledgeable and friendly. learned a lot along a well paced route, as well as how to play a new game. Informative, yet relaxing.
Everyone should take this tour and learn to play petanque!!! Seriously this was a wonderful way to explore this part of Paris and it was a very fun afternoon! One of my favorite Paris experiences!!
This was such a fun tour. Not only was the tour guide (Arthur) very informative, but there was such a variety of environments covered. Small lanes loaded with history as well as large monuments too. The petanque game was also a lot of fun. (even if one of my throws ended up in the street). Definitely would recommend it.
I loved the tour because it was a small group and our tour guide, Arthur, tailored the tour to what the group wanted. Overall it was a great walk through the Latin Quarter and St. Germain.
Our guide, Bart, was so friendly, considerate and knowledgeable. Awesome tour. It started at the Place de la Concorde and ended in the Marais at the Pompidou. Along the way, we stopped at a shop and enjoyed picking out a delicious macaroon Later on in the walk we enjoyed sampling various cheeses with that wonderful French bread. Both are included in the price of the tour. The walk was well paced so older travelers can manage this three hour tour easily. We saw so many famous sights and many hidden gems we may have missed on our own. Do this tour.
Wendy M
Excellent tour. The guide was exceptionally good and gave information not just on what we were seeing but the culture of contemporary France. Food was good, pace was good.
Arthur was our guide, and what a great guy he is! It was pouring with rain when we all met up, but this did not stop us enjoying it despite the rain, and it did get better later on. Arthur told us all about the various landmarks in the city and the history of Paris. It was really interesting. The charcuterie stop in the pub was lovely, and we finished with the boules, which was very entertaining too. All in all a very enjoyable trip and a great start to our few days in Paris as it gave us such a good grounding about the city. Would definitely recommend.
Nicholas was a fantastic tour guide, provided us with interesting information about the places we visited, was efficient, fun, helpful and would make any tour quite unforgettable.
Tim was our guide. He did a great job giving us lots of very interesting information about the neighborhoods we were walking through. The stop for charcuterie tasting and wine was a highlight. provided a nice stop to chat with the other members of the group. Playing Petanque was great fun as well.
This tour was one of the best we did in all of our European tour. Our guide was excellent and obviously loved Paris. We had to shelter in a cafe as a sudden storm blew up but it just added to the experience. We stopped at another cafe to eat plates of charcuterie and drink wine. Then off to play bocce in a village square- more wine and laughter. This tour takes you through lots of hidden areas of Paris. Enjoy!!
Great guide and food! Highly recommend this tour for foodies.
It was a wonderful afternoon walking tour - we all learned so much and had fun drinking wine, eating charcuterie and playing Petanque. A PERFECT way to spend our first day in Paris!!

In 2010, Brian Wilson helped lead the Giants to win the World Series and before 2010, their last World Series title was in 1954. Brian Wilson posted 48 saves in 2010 while playing with the San Francisco Giants which led the National League and he is known for having a flamboyant personality to go along with his long beard.

Just like with the Macondo and Fukushima debacles, it seems that the entire approach to what is happening at Bayou Corne is largely a hit and miss conundrum.
There ARE no precedents, so, there is no definitive way to handle something of this magnitude.
The ironic, sad, and, perhaps criminally negligent part of all this, is that long before industry 'advanced' to the point where shit
hit the fan, the warnings were in place--just ignored, for, if heeded, industry would have had to abandon their money-making ventures altogether.
So, here we have a very, very serious problem before us, one that is growing expotentially with each new facet of discovery in an ever-widening geographic area, all of which points to a very perilous situation that can never be corrected. Ever.
And, with each new day, we will be hearing about some new technique that shall be tried--which will ultimately fail, and, some new report discounting that all of these things are in any way connected, or, as troublesome as we imagine. Meanwhile, domes are still being mined, chemicals are still being stored, prospective wells are still being drilled for while others continue to compromise the geological structure of the landmasses they are extracting from.
"If it ain't broke don't fix it."
Nothing will change until something really, really bad happens, that cannot be denied. Unfortunately, just as we've seen in the wake of the really, really bad and continuing debacles at both Fukushima and Macondo: even then, it still gets denied.
If EVER something cataclysmic occurs in the region, I have this feeling that we will hear that some undetected meteor or weapon hit the region as the cause of the event.
And, as we hurry to help the survivors, and, sort it all out, even then, behind the scenes, it will be business as usual.
Of course, this is only my opinion.
I REALLY needed to get this off my chest. Sorry.

I did get to Wimbledon in 2012 when I took my granddaughter to England to visit my daughter, Barb and her family who were living there. The trip to Wimbledon was a high light for me. Hope to go back again in 2015. My name is on the lottery list.
It's Pamela Jane Pollard Fencl's birthday today.

text: I'm looking for flights from Nairobi (Jomo Kenyatta) back to London. I arrive early afternoon. From my searches so far it looks like I have a choice between waiting at the airport until 23.00h or spending 6+ hours in Dubai or Doha. I'd welcome any feedback on the facilities and security at Nairobi, since that flight would be direct.

|Reviews for Knights and Guards
| Guest chapter 16 . 6/13/2014
Finally! I was wondering if he would show up!
| Guest chapter 12 . 6/12/2014
CLOUD! Don't you DARE hurt Riku!
| CharmingFire813 chapter 16 . 3/24/2014
its settled you HAVE to write the sequel! im so looking forward to it! i freakin loved this story please write more!
| FullOfSugar chapter 16 . 1/29/2014
Hi there!
Amazing story you have written. I love the fantasy/romance kind of stories and I loved how you portrayed all the characters :)
The battles were great and the events were flowing flawlessly. I mean, there was a good rythm, I'm sorry I'm not clear lol
I would say the only drawback I found was not to know for the most part of the story the reason why the Knights and Guards were fighting. Like, except for Cloud and Zack, why no one else was asking the question "hey, by the way, I'm supposed to potentially kill those guys... why?" Even if we discover the real reason at the end, I think it would have been better to give a purpose to each group, as in an official reason for their existence. Gotta know what you fight for :)
Anyway, awesome story, and I hope to read your sequel soon. See ya!
| Bassy66 chapter 16 . 9/4/2013
YEAH! Sephy big villain! :)
I am patiently a waiting the sequel!
...is Sephy the reason Zack's not around? cause that would be great, and make sense.
| Takara yume chapter 16 . 9/4/2013
Hmm well i liked this it was like a superhero-esqued story I like the fighting scenes though the final one kinda bothered me-why did Kairi even go if she was only gonna be deadweight you know? Like at least Namine healed and the others were to busy protecting them than trying to stop it so-I dunno it didn't sit to well with me, also the umm, lovey dovey part-I dunno what to call it other than that-of Axel, Roxas, Riku and Sora made me cringe so many times i just skipped past them honestly, ; v ;
the overall feel of their 'love' is too whimsical and just too perfect for it to be real-no problems and too much blushing and giggling that I would almost mistake Sora and Roxas as girls rather than themselves, the single tear showing-over and over, the repetition of searching each/their eyes got tiring and weird too. Their 'love' is kinda cliche and predictable that I only really enjoyed the fighting highlights. Over all, I think it was a decent story ; v ; ))/
| SerendipitousWhim chapter 16 . 8/30/2013
For now, that is all my stunned brain can come up with.
Deciding to give this story a shot despite superheroes and superpowers not being my thing was a stroke of genius on my part. I can't believe I almost missed out on such an awesome story. Everything was great: the characters' personalities were likable and their interactions were cute, the plot was brilliant and very well written, and the ideas were original and creative.
The friendship between Roxas and Riku was nothing short of beautiful. I'm used to people always putting love before friendship (and sometimes before brotherhood or sisterhood) so it's a nice change to see characters who value the latter.
In my opinion, this is one of the absolute best fanfictions ever and I'm shocked to see it doesn't have more reviews and favorites. It's really rare to come across stories of such quality here and I'm glad I decided to give this one a shot. This was a pleasant surprise since I wasn't expecting to like a story revolving around superheroes.
Thank you for writing this amazing story and I'm looking forward to the sequel (while reading, I was starting to wonder about the aliens and whether they had a story or were simply thrown into the plot).
P.S.: After finishing the story, I dropped by your profile and was like: "Oh my god! This is the writer of Wretched Revenge!"
| SerendipitousWhim chapter 15 . 8/30/2013
Absolutely awesome!
Everything was wrapped up beautifully and the plot was properly concluded. Around chapter 7, I was starting to get the feeling I had stumbled upon one heck of a story, but now, I know I did. I was reading the chapters one after the other like a maniac and was trying to squeeze some time to write a small review every now and then.
P.S.: At some point, you wrote Spectre instead of Raven (I was also wondering why it was Spectre and not Specter throughout the story). You also wrote Could instead of Cloud.
P.P.S.: *Sigh* Yet another great story slightly ruined for me by having Clerith in it. Oh well, I try not to let this bother me as much as it actually does when I read KH fanfictions because for some reason, writers often use this couple (to my great chagrin T_T).
| SerendipitousWhim chapter 13 . 8/30/2013
The moment Cloud mentioned a "her," I was desperately praying he wasn't referring to Aerith (though I'm almost 100% sure this is going to end up being the case). I'm not a Clerith fan AT ALL.
| SerendipitousWhim chapter 10 . 8/30/2013
I think this story is about to make it to my favorites list.
| SerendipitousWhim chapter 8 . 8/30/2013
Yup, I'm totally hooked.
Roxas being a neutral character makes me fear for his life and safety.
| SerendipitousWhim chapter 7 . 8/30/2013
Though I said I wasn't a big fan of this sort of plot and setting, you totally got me hooked.
| SerendipitousWhim chapter 3 . 8/30/2013
I find Roxas and Axel's "date" extremely cute.
| SerendipitousWhim chapter 2 . 8/30/2013
At first, I thought Sephiroth was White Skye (what with his hair being silver and all). However, I later got the feeling it was Cloud.
| SerendipitousWhim chapter 1 . 8/30/2013
I'm not a big fan of superheroes or superpowers; however, I'm willing to give this story a shot and see how I like it.
P.S.: I have a feeling Axel is going to be one of the Knights.

The filmmakers won prizes and had their three videos shown at the recent Port Townsend Film Festival.
This week we're posting eight other videos entered in the competition that got special citations from the judging panel.
Virginia Bogert, curator of Seattle's Post Alley Film Festival and president emerita of Women in Film Seattle, explains how she and the other two judges evaluated the entries:
"What we as the judges looked for in the three-minute film submissions were films that told a story, had wit, creativity, were well acted and had overall pretty darn good production values.
"We were also mindful of the initial rules that were laid out for the competition which included clearance of music rights and a length of three minutes or under.
"There were some entries that we considered footage, albeit engaging; some entries whose music rights were not cleared, some that were akin to travelogues and home movies, and some that were trailers of longer films and, unfortunately, did not meet the competition's requirements.
"All in all we enjoyed all the submissions. There were quite a few films we liked a lot for many and varied reasons — but our mandate was to choose only three for the festival."

While there is much hand-wringing in the wake of Tuesday's elections, the SC Progressive Network is not mourning; we are celebrating a job well done. After a year dedicated to educating and mobilizing voters on health care, we capped the campaign with a 10-day 10-city blitz. We started at the Governor's Mansion with a press conference, and ended with a rally at the County Square in Greenville.
It was a long haul. But that's what the Network is about. We are working year-round to promote progressive values, not cranking a cold motor every two years when elections roll around. If we have a chance to pull this state out of the ideological ditch that's drowning our most vulnerable citizens, more of us need to move beyond outrage to action. It can be gratifying.
On the road we got to see parts of South Carolina too often neglected, we met dedicated community and political activists at every stop, we made friends and allies across the state, we nurtured a growing solidarity among our staff and volunteers, we generated some great press and, best of all, we changed the conversation on Medicaid expansion. It was an issue the pundits and pooh-bahs had declared dead. We insisted that the only thing dead about this issue are the people paying the price for petty, partisan foolishness.
In related news, because our staff has been busier than expected with the Road Show, the Network's fall retreat Nov. 15 at Penn Center has been moved to Columbia. We'll be meeting at the Lake House at Sandhill Research Education Center, 900 Clemson Rd. It is a nifty facility, built in 1932 by WPA workers. Details to come.
Thanks again to our Road Show crew for a campaign to remember. Warning: watch this video, and the song may loop in your brain for days.

Michael Appleton is waiting on the fitness of two centre backs as he prepares to pick his first competitive line-up as Oxford United's head coach.
Johnny Mullins (dead leg) and Jake Wright (ankle) have been nursing minor problems picked up in the 1-0 defeat to Wolves in pre-season.
Aside from long-term absentees goalkeeper Ryan Clarke and midfielder Andy Whing, the defenders are the only players struggling to make the opening game against Burton Albion.
He said: "If they're both back then happy days, we'll go into the campaign with a clean bill of health, with the exception of Whingy and Clarkey.
"I'm certainly not expecting both of them to be fit, if they are it would be a big bonus, but if we can get one of them fit I'd be delighted."
Even if the pair are fit, Michael Raynes is pushing for a start in the heart of defence after a strong pre-season.
In addition to a host of signings in line to make their competitive bows today, another debutant looks set to be Jon Meades.
The midfielder signed more than a year ago, but was unavailable for the whole of last season after sustaining a serious ankle injury.
Burton, who have reached the play-offs for the past two seasons, will be without Damien McCrory, Jimmy Phillips and Lee Bell, who all have knee injuries.
Oxford Utd: from G Long, Riley, Raynes, Wright, Newey, Collins, Meades, Potter, Brown, Hylton, Morris, Roberts, O'Dowda, Rose, Shama, Ruffels, Ashby, Hunt, S Long, Mullins, Crocombe.
Burton: from McLaughlin, Edwards, Sharps, Cansdell-Sherriff, Taft, Akins, Weir, Mousinho, MacDonald, McGurk, Beavon, Kee, Harness, Palmer, Lyness, Knowles, McFadzean, Slade, Doyle.

DEFINITION of 'Know Sure Thing (KST)'
A two-line indicator used determine momentum in stock trends. As an oscillator it fluctuates above and below zero, providing trade signals and analytical insight based on divergence with price and KST and signal Line crossovers. The indicator formula utilizes four different time frames to show overall momentum, and not just momentum over one specific timeframe:
ROCMA1 = 10-Period SMA of 10-Period Rate-of-Change
ROCMA2 = 10-Period SMA of 15-Period Rate-of-Change
ROCMA3 = 10-Period SMA of 20-Period Rate-of-Change
ROCMA4 = 15-Period SMA of 30-Period Rate-of-Change
KST Line = (RoCMA1 x 1) + (RoCMA2 x 2) + (RoCMA3 x 3) + (RoCMA4 x 4)
Signal Line = 9-period SMA of KST
Where SMA stands for Simple Moving Average and ROC stands for Rate-of-Change.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Know Sure Thing (KST)'
Know Sure Thing was developed by Martin Pring, a technical analyst and author, to show the overall momentum of a stock, or other financial asset. Traders typically use KST for trade signals or to confirm trends.
Buy signals occur when the KST crosses above the zero line, or when the KST crosses above its signal line. Sell signals occur when the KST crosses below the zero line, or when the KST crosses below the signal line. When the KST stays above zero during an uptrend, it confirms the trend. When KST stays below zero during a downtrend, it confirms the downtrend.
Traders also watch for when the indicator diverges with price. If the price is making new highs, but KST isn't, it indicates price momentum is slowing. If the price is making new lows and KST isn't, it indicates sell pressure is slowing.
While the formulas are different, the applications of KST are similar to that of the MACD.

I have been a Christian since the summer of 2008 and I just want to do all that I can for God. I want to live for him and by him because there is nothing on the earth that I would rather do more. I hope to always learn about him in as many ways as I can and to show his example and spread the word through the way I live. I like to play videogames, sports and I like to bike. I enjoy school most of the time and I really like hanging out with my friends. I hope that any experiences you have with me are positive. God Bless.

Downtown Street Map
This is the most commonly published street map of Cozumel today but it is far from completely accurate. Be aware that due to recent growth, the city streets now go all the way back to 150 Avenida.
Calles (streets) run east/west or perpendicular to the sea. If you are driving east/west you must stop at every block corner.
The Avenidas (Avenues) run north/south beginning at the beachfront and run parallel to the sea. Avenidas are numbered in increments of 5 all the way up to 150 now. If you are driving north/south, in theory, you have the right of way and don't have to stop at each block corner.
Beware . there are exceptions to these guidelines but this gives an overview of the initial city plan.
The plaza and Juarez Street are considered the center of town.
Avenidas and Calles north of these will be referred to as Norte and have even numbers of 2, 4, 6, etc.
Avenidas and Calles south of these will be referred to as Sur and have odd numbers of 1, 3, 5, etc.

We just got back from Cozumel last week and I'd like to thank you for answering all my questions and for setting us up on the Fury Snorkeling & Beach Party Tour and the van from Budget. This was the 4th time visiting the island and the 1st time that I didn't have the first bit of trouble with booking something online. Your service was great and I will be sure and book with you on my next trip. Thanks again!
Danny Neal ~ Marshall TX
I have not even been to Cozumel yet - we will be traveling to Cozumel next year and I love it already. I am addicted to your site and love the live web cam. Your site is the first thing I pull up in the morning. Cant wait to get to Cozumel! Thank you!
Laura Randall ~ Marshalltown, IA - USA
Hello Sherri ~ I met you back in 2001 (12 years ago!) when my husband and I along with another couple were involved in a wreck and you were behind us and helped us out as to our rights in the matter. A motorcycle ran into the side of us pretty bad if you recall. I believe you said you lived in Addison, Texas like us. I have booked a trip and will be in Cozumel next Tuesday. Any recommendation on vehicle rental you can suggest for me? LATER: My date and I had a blast in Cozumel. He loved the island. It was a very short trip. I am including a photo of us on the cruise. He would like to go back and stay for a few days at your place. Hope you are doing good, please keep in touch.
C Bronstad ~ San Antonio, TX
Thank you so much for all your help! We took you tour to Chitchen-Itza in june. We were the couple that missed the tour because we did not get the wake up call. Because you went the extra mile with us (by finding us a tour operator that would honor our voucher the next day) I am extremely greatful. it certainly made our vacation. I will DEFINITELY recommend your website COZUMELINSIDER to anybody who will listen. thanks again!

Graphite is employed as a heat sink material, preferably with its c-planes perpendicular to the surface on which the heat-generating source is mounted at least in the portion in immediate contact with said source. The thermal conductivity of the graphite may be increased by heat treatment or by making it isotopically pure.
1. An article comprising a heat-generating source in contact with a heat sink material consisting essentially of graphite that is at least about 99.2% isotopically pure.
2. An article according to claim 1 wherein the graphite comprises a plurality of regularly stacked c-plane.
3. An article according to claim 1 wherein the graphite is at least about 99.9% isotopically pure.
4. An article according to claim 3 wherein the graphite is at least about 99.9% carbon-12.
5. An article according to claim 2 wherein the c-planes of the portion of graphite in immediate contact with the heat-generating source are perpendicular to the surface on which said source is mounted.
6. An article according to claim 1 further comprising a diamond insert in immediate contact with said heat-generating source.
7. An article according to claim 1 further comprising a layer of material which is an electrical insulator on at least a portion of the graphite surface.
8. An article according to claim 7 wherein the insulator material is diamond.
9. An article according to claim 7 wherein the insulator material is silicon carbide with a layer of silicon dioxide on top of said silicon carbide.
This invention relates to the dissipation of heat from heat generating objects.
Various areas exist in which heat conductors of very high thermal conductivity, hereinafter sometimes called "heat sinks", are necessary. These include electronic equipment, in which certain components generate heat. Another example is in repeating stations for fiber optic networks. Signals are transmitted by laser light over the fibers of such networks for very great distances. Since these signals decrease substantially in intensity over several kilometers, it is necessary to construct "repeating stations" periodically along the network, for the purpose of increasing the intensity of the light transmitted along the network. In a typical repeating station of this type, a photodetector is employed to convert the weakened signal transmitted by fiber optics to an electrical signal, which is then magnified, reconverted to a light signal by a light-emitting diode, and transmitted in turn along the next segment of the network.
In order to minimize the requisite number of repeating stations, optimum magnification of the signal in any station is desirable. However, the amount of radiant energy of any kind generated electrically is proportional to the fourth power of the current employed. While a portion of such radiant energy is in the form of light, the remainder thereof is lost as heat. In any individual station, therefore, very large amounts of heat are generated, requiring efficient heat sinks to maintain the operativeness of the repeating station.
Diamond is a promising material for use as a heat sink by reason of its very high thermal conductivity. This is particularly true of isotopically pure single crystal diamond, as disclosed in copending, commonly owned application Ser. No. 08/163,608.
However, several problems have been encountered in the use of diamond heat sinks. Natural diamond is prohibitively expensive for this purpose, or nearly so. The same is generally true of synthetic diamond prepared under high pressure-temperature conditions.
The production of polycrystalline diamond by chemical vapor deposition (hereinafter "CVD") in recent years has offered hope for a less expensive but still effective heat sink material. However, in addition to still being quite costly, CVD diamond is subject to stress cracking and other problems. Consequently, it has not gained wide use.
The present invention is based on the discovery that a very inexpensive material, graphite, is capable of being fabricated into heat sinks with high efficiency. In addition to having a high thermal conductivity when oriented in at least one direction, graphite has a much higher specific heat than diamond (2.05 and 1.48 cal./mol-�K., respectively) and various other advantages. It is also capable of rapid growth at much lower cost than diamond.
Accordingly, the invention in its broadest sense includes articles comprising a heat-generating source in contact with a thermal conductor comprising graphite.
The drawings are schematic illustrations of various configurations of heat sinks comprising graphite which may be present in the articles of this invention.
Any heat-generating source may be employed in the present invention. It is particularly applicable to electronic circuitry, as illustrated by multichip modules and integrated circuits, and repeating stations in fiber optic networks, particularly in connection with light-emitting diodes such as laser diodes employed in such stations.
Graphite suitable for use as a heat sink material in the articles of this invention may conveniently be produced from hydrocarbons such as methane by chemical vapor deposition on a suitable substrate such as graphite or tantalum. Methods for producing such graphite, commonly known as "pyrolytic graphite", are known in the art. In general, the hydrocarbon gas is passed into contact with a substrate heated to a temperature in the range of about 1900-2100� C. at subatmospheric pressure, for example in the range of about 10-100 torr. The deposited graphite may be removed from the substrate and conventionally worked, as by machining, to produce a heat sink of the desired size and shape.
Pyrolytic graphite grows at rates on the order of 1000 times greater than CVD diamond. For example, a graphite slab 1 mm. thick can be grown in only 1.5 hours as opposed to several days for a CVD diamond slab of the same thickness. Moreover, it is not necessary in the case of pyrolytic graphite deposition to maintain a high concentration of an unstable species such as atomic hydrogen at the substrate surface; all that is required is a uniformly heated substrate capable of decomposing the hydrocarbon feed gas.
In addition to the advantages relating to deposition feasibility and specific heat, the density of graphite is only 64% of that of diamond. Consequently, a graphite heat sink of a given weight will be more thermally conductive than a diamond heat sink of the same weight. The difference in density is particularly useful in the fabrication of multichip modules and the like.
Further, the Debye temperature of graphite is some 120� K. higher than that of diamond and the strength of graphite increases with increasing temperature while that of diamond decreases. Consequently, a graphite heat sink of a given weight will be more thermally conductive than a diamond heat sink of the same weight and the thermal conductivity will not decrease as much at high temperature or under conditions of contact with a transition metal. The difference in density is particularly useful in the fabrication of multichip modules and the like. Graphite, being less brittle, is also much easier to deposit in large, easy to handle slabs and to machine into suitable shapes for use as heat sinks without cracking than is diamond.
It is well known that graphite crystals are stacks of numerous planes of aromatically bonded carbon hexagons. Said planes are conventionally and hereinafter frequently designated "c- planes". While carbon-carbon bonding within the c-planes is very strong, it is generally much weaker between planes. Pyrolytic graphite grows with the c-planes parallel to the plane of the substrate.
The thermal conductivity of graphite in the c-plane is expected to be on the order of 20-30 W/cm.-�K., which is comparable to that of diamond. In perpendicular directions, it is only about 1 W/cm.-�K. Therefore, it is generally preferred for the crystal orientation of the graphite heat sink to be such as to provide maximum conduction of heat away from the heat-generating source. Various means of achieving this are described hereinafter.
As deposited, pyrolytic graphite tends to be polycrystalline with irregularly stacked c-planes. Thermal conductivity is increased by formation of large, regularly stacked c-planes. This may be done when desired by heat treating at a temperature in the range of about 2000-3800� C., preferably about 2500-3800� C., typically for a period in the range of about 1.5-3 hours. On the other hand, a less perfect crystalline form of graphite will have a greater hardness and may be easier to handle if some decrease in thermal conductivity is acceptable.
It is also expected that the thermal conductivity of isotopically pure graphite, like that of diamond, is substantially higher than that of graphite of normal isotopic distribution. Accordingly, in another embodiment of the invention the graphite is at least about 99.2% and preferably at least about 99.9% isotopically pure by weight; that is, the other isotope should be present in a maximum amount of 8 parts and preferably 1 part per thousand. By reason of its availability, relatively low cost and relatively high theoretical thermal conductivity, isotopically pure C-12 graphite is generally preferred over the C-13 isotope.
Reference is now made to the drawings for illustrations of heat sink configurations according to the invention. FIG. 1 illustrates a simple structure in which an individual heat-generating source, depicted as a laser diode, is employed. It is possible in these circumstances to employ a unitary heat sink construction in which graphite heat sink 1 has its c-planes perpendicular to the surface and perpendicular to laser diode 2 mounted thereon.
FIGS. 2-3 show two structures comprising graphite as the only heat sink material and particularly adapted to multichip modules. In each, the main body 4 of the heat sink has its c-planes parallel to the top surface and the portion in immediate contact with the heat-generating source, shown in said figures as a wedge-shaped groove in said main body 4, contains a graphite insert 3 whose c-planes are perpendicular to the surface on which said source is mounted. Said insert may be secured to the main body by a thin layer of a suitable adhesive or glue. In FIG. 2, the c-planes are parallel to and in FIG. 3 they are perpendicular to the length of the groove.
In FIG. 4, a graphite plug 5 with c-planes perpendicular to the surface is inserted in a hole in main body 4; the plug is shown as cylindrical, but other shapes may also be employed. The main body may be thermally expanded to permit installation of insert 5, or an adhesive layer may be employed.
In the embodiments of FIGS. 2-4, the configuration permits conduction of heat along the c-planes from the surface mounting of the heat-generating source into the body of main portion 1. It is then dissipated by transmission along the c-planes of said main portion in a direction parallel to its top surface.
Another embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG. 5. Main body 4 of the graphite heat sink is fitted with diamond insert 7 in immediate contact with the heat-generating source. Said diamond insert may be a separate piece of natural or synthetic diamond pressed into the groove in main portion 1 or may be CVD diamond deposited therein. The heat generated by the source is transmitted downward through the diamond insert and is then dissipated through main portion 1 in a direction parallel to its top surface.
Since graphite is electrically conductive, it may be used in the simple form illustrated in FIGS. 1-5 only when conduction of electrical current from the heat-generating source is not detrimental. In many instances, however, it is required that the heat sink (or at least the portion thereof in contact with the heat-generating source) be an electrical insulator. In that case, a layer of material which is an electrical insulator or convertible to an insulator may be deposited on at least a portion of the graphite surface by such methods as chemical vapor deposition, physical vapor deposition or sputtering. Upon conversion of the surface portion of said layer, as by oxidation at temperatures in the range of about 1500-2000� C., an electrically insulating material is formed.
This is illustrated in FIGS. 6-7. In FIG. 6, a layer of silicon carbide is deposited on graphite heat sink 10, for example by exposure to a silane-containing atmosphere. The surface of said layer is then oxidized to silicon dioxide, with silicon dioxide layer 11 thus being formed on top of intermediate silicon carbide layer 9. In FIG. 7, a layer 13 of CVD diamond is grown on the surface of graphite heat sink 10.
The embodiment of FIG. 6 may also be employed when the heat sink is to be used at temperatures above about 600� C. The silicon dioxide surface coating passivates the graphite and protects it from oxidation.

While I was gone my friend and my brother-in-law took all of my clothes. Just a few things left like these.
They're pretty comfy http://instagram.com/p/pU3qauFyw0/
So as my friend and my brother-in-law took just about all of my clothes while I was gone (I let them) I have run out of stuff to wear. Luckily there was a suitcase of things from the Philippines like these Bench shoes. Thanks @Kariontour for keeping the suitcase safe! And thanks #Bench! I guess I'll have to stop being stubborn and buy more clothes eventually though.

With all the vids I been watching lately, it again reinforced to me more than ever what a truly consummate performer he is. In the Rainbow vid he has been described as "dizzying" as a groovin' mic-free David, then we have him flying across the stage dancing to a Zero Gravity, and then the choke-hold-on-the-mic D, giving us the stance and emoting like there is no tomorrow (My Hands/Providence, RI comes to mind), flashes of salsa, a few seconds of are-you-freaking-kidding-me moves during Soul Man, and then you have the Ave Maria's and this:
Video credit 8throwcenter _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Hadn't seen this particular one before (and I ♥ it) where he just stands there and sings, gloriously sings.
…and I love one as much as the other. I love it all, I want it all. And we can't forget piano accompaniment and I suspect possibly guitar on his return as well as more dancing! Huh, what, who? I know I've said it before, but it needs repeating (so here I go) – who else can sing and perform with such diversity at such high artistry AND look like that doing it!
*If anyone was ever born to perform, to be on a stage, it is him.*
(I know I'm preaching to the choir, but sometimes I just have to get it out.)
Thanks guys.

Dear Friends,
Some of you know about what happened with my older son, but most of you do not. None of this was David related until he announced the mission. It was then that a cycle of pain and loss restarted in my heart, and now, after many weeks of processing it all, I felt compelled to share it, with the hope that it may help someone.
My oldest child, now age 12, was diagnosed with Autism at the age of two-and-a-half. He was a healthy baby and was developing normally until 16 months, when he received 4 vaccinations during a routine office visit. Within one week of that day he lost all his words, eye contact, and started to have severe bowel issues. I am not trying to start a debate about vaccines, I am just telling you what happened to my child. Thus began our journey into the pit of despair and heartache. Several doctors, tests, and hours of research later we began to understand what we could do to begin to try to heal his physical and sensory problems.
The first step was special education preschool. The district here that diagnosed him told us that he would never speak, dress himself, never be able to live alone or have a relationship. We were told to start looking into long-term care options. Words cannot describe the loss and devastation that we felt. I'll never forget the first day of preschool. I had to take him there; I just couldn't let him take the school bus; he just looked so tiny. I dropped him off, both of us sobbing. The teacher had to block the door to keep him from getting out. I went out to my car and cried and cried and cried. I didn't want to take him there. He was supposed to be home with me. Did he know I was coming back for him? Did he understand what I told him about school and that it would help him? Would it even help him? I trusted no one. Who were they to tell me what my child's future would be? I sat there in the parking lot in my car sobbing. When I finally went in to get him I was so relieved. He seemed fine. The thought of doing it again the next day was too much to think about.
His preschool day was two-and-a-half hours every morning. The longest two-and-a-half hours you could ever imagine. In the meantime we were working on special diets, vitamins, sensory therapy and lab tests to help with the bowel issues. I thanked God for credit cards and that we were able to get high credit limits. Everything we tried with him was very successful and immediate. We did everything outside of mainstream medicine with the help of a doctor who I know is an angel. We went through about 15 doctors before we found her. The preschool was awesome, and it truly was needed to help him catch up on things he had missed. But having him gone everyday, even though it was just the half day, was very depressing. It was a true loss. Then after preschool would come elementary school. I would never get those preschool years back.
I never did get those years back. But what I did get was something even greater. Our son began to speak again. He began to interact with us. He was able to handle sensory input. He has been in a regular classroom setting since Kindergarten. He continued with speech therapy through 3rd grade. He was able to stop the special diet after 5 years. He is now in 7th grade and has all A's in school. He scored within his grade level on the MEAP test two years in a row now. He has friends, sleepovers, normal relationships and is an awesome big brother.
Over time I began to accept that this journey with my son was somehow meant to be. I ended up working at the sensory clinic that helped him so much. I was able to talk to and give hope to thousands of parents. I was able to work with the children and see them progress. I have been witness to the restoration of my son's health and well-being. I have come from the depths of despair to the triumph of redemption.
When David announced his mission I was in shock. The next morning I cried for six hours. I had not cried like that since that morning at preschool. All the feelings of loss and fairness and right and wrong and why and how came rushing back. I was losing my baby again. I know he's not a baby, and he's not mine, but you all know and understand that is exactly what it feels like. Much like taking my son to that preschool, this was something that had to be done despite how I felt about it. It was going to happen, and all my tears and frustration were no match for it. I came to accept that just as I took my son and handed him over to strangers, I had to support David in his choice because what is best for me is not necessarily the best for him. I could have not sent my son to preschool and kept him home with me. But I had to do what was best for him, despite my own pain.
For those of you that have not experienced a loss, and even for those who have, David's leaving is devastating. The routine and activities of the last 4 years will change. We will have to find a new normal. And we will. Nothing will stop what is meant to be for David. We must be strong and have faith that the future will bring nothing but the best of times for all of us. My journey with my son taught me that even though things seem impossible you can never give up hope.
We cannot get back the two years that he will be away. What we can do is be here to support one another, buy whatever music comes out, and take good care of the love we have in our hearts for him. One by one we were chosen to be on this journey, for reasons we may never know. His voice took root in our hearts. His spirit made our own start to blossom. Now we must tend to the garden while he is away.

Video games recording "Let's play"
App Description
Are you ready to accept the gift of madness and understand the secrets of the deep? If yes — "Mental Hospital" is waiting for you.
The story of Mental Hospital begins with a banal event in the life of a young reporter. Agreed to film a special forces raid tasking at the Psychiatric Hospital, he started his work. But in an absurd accident he has been arrested at the office. In order to get at least something from such a bargain, you (as this reported) still hesitant to go to the hospital, and shoot for the scene at least something meaningful.
Incredibly powerful, creepy atmosphere. It will keep you in suspense, not allowing to relax for a minute. The game is built on the Unity3D engine, which allows it to issue a picture at the level of modern horror computer games.
