How did three Danes end up being tortured in Lebanon?
The army officer and alleged collusion in Yemen
31 Dec 2011 06:14 GMT | Politics, Asia Pacific, North Korea, South Korea
North Korea has announced the appointment of Kim Jong-un, the anointed successor and youngest son of Kim Jong-il, as supreme commander of its 1.2 million-strong military, two days after official mourning for the late leader ended. The North's state news agency KCNA said on Saturday the official appointment was made at a meeting of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the ruling Workers' Party on Friday.
KCNA said the Political Bureau members "courteously proclaimed the dear comrade Kim Jong-un, vice-chairman of the Central Military Commission of the Workers' Party of Korea, assumed the supreme commandership of the Korean People's Army", according to a will made by Kim Jong-il on October 8. It did not elaborate on the details of the will.
Since Kim Jong-il's death on December 17, state media have dubbed Kim Jong-un "supreme commander".
"Kim Jong-il was made supreme commander in 1991 some three years before his father's death," Al Jazeera's Harry Fawcett, reporting from Seoul, said. "But the difference is that he had control of North Korea [already]."
Some Korea-watchers say it may take Kim Jong-un months to assume the two other official titles which were attained by his father in 1997, a full three years into his reign: General Secretary of the Party and Chairman of the National Defence Commission.
But the announcement of the politburo's decision not only meant formal approval of his control of one of the world's most powerful armed forces, but also indicated the consolidation of his power could be much faster than expected - perhaps a sign of Kim Jong-un's relative lack of a power base.
Third-generation Kim
Footage aired recently by state TV showned Kim Jong-un, who is believed to be in his 20s, flanked or followed by the North's top military officers and a coterie of leaders during a series of mourning ceremonies for his father.
The pictures appeared to signal a smooth transfer of power to Kim Jong-un, the third generation of his family to rule the unpredictable and reclusive communist state since shortly after World War Two.
"Faced with the sudden death of his father, Kim Jong-un and his supporters, who appear to be less prepared and insecure, may think they do not have much time in solidifying the young Kim's position," Professor Koh Yu-hwan, an expert on the North's leadership from Seoul's Dongguk University, told the Reuters news agency. "The approval [of his supreme leadership of the military] should be one of the fastest ways to allow him the sovereign ruler position," Koh said.
This ties in with the North's "military-first" policies on which Kim Jong-il relied heavily.
Kim Jong-un was named a four-star general and given the vice-chairmanship of the ruling party's Central Military Commission by his father in 2010.
Political entourage
Many analysts also expect the inexperienced new leader, who had only been groomed for rule since 2009, to lead with the aid of a close circle around him that includes his uncle and key power-broker, Jang Song-thaek, at least in the early stages of the power transition.
Jang, husband of Kim Jong-il's younger sister, Kim Kyong-hui, stood behind his nephew in Wednesday's mass funeral parade, escorting the hearse carrying Kim's body.
Despite Pyongyang's determination to project an unbroken line from Kim Jong-un's predecessors, which began with his grandfather, Kim il-sung, there have been questions among outsiders about his capacity to lead the country.
North Korea, whose military is pursuing a nuclear arms programme, is technically still at war with the South and is suffering from chronic food shortages.
Labelling its opponents "foolish", North Korea warned Seoul on Friday it would stick to its hardline policies and said Pyongyang would never engage with the current government of South Korea.

Pyongyang says Seoul and "other foolish politicians around the world" should not expect any change from the new leader.

We come here at least 2 or 3 times every month. Thai food here never disappoints. Pad thai, Thai Island fried rice, and the Tom Yum soup are all terrific. It's never too crowded, good for lunch or dinner.
The curry was very good and just enough spice. The staff is always friendly and even though the place is small, the atmosphere is nice
This is a family owned and run authentic Thai restaurant next to downtown Tampa on Davis Island . The food is consistently good . I highly recommend the Thai Island scallops .
My wife and I have gone here for years. Wonderful place in a nice neighborhood. If you're visiting downtown Tampa, it's not too far by cab and definitely worth the trip. I recommend the garlic and pepper chicken and a Singha.
After seeing the doctor, I asked some of the staff if they knew a Thai Restaurant nearby. My doctors suggested to go to Thai Island on Davis Islands nearby.

The restaurant is beautifully decorated. However, the food was not that good. We got the Penang curry which was overly sweet. The soup was good.
Terrific food that we really couldn't fault in any way. It's a good, honest family run (I believe) restaurant and well worth a visit.
The restaurant itself is a no airs & graces place, so don't expect the lap of luxury. It is, however, clean, comfortable and welcoming. Service was fast and mostly friendly, but nothing to get excited over,...
My wife and I had to drop our daughter off for a choral performance on Davis Island so we had time for dinner. Thai is one of my favorites and the web site looked good. I ordered one of my litmus test dishes - Green Curry with chicken - to compare with others I have been to. As I often...

Whoooo are you? HHSL is Collecting Statistics
By Kathryn Houk On January 28, 2014 · Leave a Comment · In Announcements
In an effort to gain more insight into how HHSL spends its time, we have begun taking statistics on all of our patron interactions.
Don't worry! We don't record any information that would make an individual identifiable; however, we do need to know what your status is and which school or center you are a part of. When we ask who you are after having an interaction with you, it is merely for our recording purposes. (And if we forget to ask these questions, if you voluntarily tell us we would be delighted!)
So what kinds of patterns are we looking for when collecting this data? We are looking at statistics such as:
- which groups use the library most frequently,
- what types of questions we get,
- how long it takes to answer questions,
- when we seem to be the busiest throughout the week and day, and
- how many interactions we have with our patrons in a given amount of time

Article: Facile synthesis of core–shell/hollow anisotropic particles via control of cross-linking during one-pot dispersion polymerization[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Preparation of anisotropic particles based on seed phase separation involves multiple processes, and asymmetrical structures and surfaces cannot be produced when anisotropic shapes emerge. In conventional one-pot dispersion polymerization (Dis.P) using cross-linker, only spherical particles are prepared due to rapid and high cross-linking. Herein, monodisperse snowman-like particles with core–shell/hollow structures and partially rough surface were synthesized straightforward by a modified one-pot Dis.P, in which ethylene glycol and water (6/4, vol.) were used as medium, and ammonium persulfate (APS) aqueous solution, vinyl acetate (VA) and/or acrylic acid (AA), divinylbenzene (DVB) and styrene (St) were added at 6 h. The cross-linking of growing particles was confined to exterior (forming cross-linked shell), and gel contents were low, leading to phase separation. Asymmetrical morphologies, structures, sizes and surface roughness were flexibly tuned by varying amounts of APS, VA and/or AA, water and DVB, and DVB adding speed. At low APS contents or high DVB amounts, the inhomogeneous cross-linking of head enabled its phase to separate, producing elongated head. With addition of VA and AA, phase separations inside head and body were induced, generating hollow structure. Adding DVB very slowly, nonlinear growth of third compartment occurred, forming bowed head.Journal of Colloid and Interface Science 05/2015; 445. DOI:10.1016/j.jcis.2014.12.087 · 3.55 Impact Factor
Article: A novel polymer chain growing mode and styrene copolymer prepared with low molecular weight copolymer of α-methylstyrene and styrene as macroinitiator[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A new polymer chain growth mode, having multiple potential chain propagation sites, initiated by oligomer of α-methylstyrene (AMS) and styrene (St) (PAS) is presented in this article. The effects of PAS content, AMS fraction in PAS and reaction temperature on bulk polymerization of St have been investigated. It is demonstrated that the PAS performed as macroinitiator in the polymerization of St. The average molecular weights of products increase significantly with the evolution of the polymerization, which is different from conventional free radical polymerization. With 20 wt % macroinitiator, the molecular weights increase from 1.21 × 105 to 3.00 × 105 with the monomer conversion increasing from 15.3 to 83.0%. This unique feature is tentatively attributed to both the reversible polymerization–depolymerization of AMS segments at high temperature which could generate more than one propagation sites in a polymer chain and the combination termination of St free radical polymerization. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Article: Direct One-Pot Synthesis of Chemically Anisotropic Particles with Tunable Morphology, Dimensions, and Surface Roughness[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Previously, synthesis of anisotropic particles by seeded polymerizations involves multiple process steps. In conventional one-pot dispersion polymerization (Dis.P) with a cross-linker added, only spherical particles are produced due to rapid and high cross-linking. In this article, a straightforward one-pot preparation of monodisperse anisotropic particles with tunable morphology, dimensions, surface roughness and asymmetrically distributed functional groups is described. With a cross-linker of divinylbenzene (DVB, 8%), ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA, 6%) or dimethacryloyloxybenzophenone (DMABP, 5%) added at 40 min, shortly after the end of nucleation stage in Dis.P of styrene (St) in methanol and water (6/4, vol.), the swollen growing particles are inhomogeneously cross-linked at first. Then, at low gel contents of 59%, 49% and 69%, corresponding to the cases using DVB, EGDMA and DMABP, respectively, the growing particle phase separates and snowman- or dumbbell-like particles are generated. Thermodynamic and kinetic analyses reveal that moderate cross-linking and sufficient swelling of growing particles determine the formation and growth of anisotropic particles during polymerization. Morphology, surface roughness, sizes and cross-linking degrees of each domain of final particles are tuned continuously by varying start addition time and contents of cross-linkers. The snowman-like particles fabricated with DVB have a gradient cross-linking and asymmetrical distribution of pendant vinyl groups from their body to head. The dumbbell-like particles prepared using DMABP have only one domain cross-linked, i.e., only one domain contains photosensitive benzophenone (BP) groups. Adding glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) or propargyl methacrylate (PMA) together with DVB or EGDMA, epoxy or alkynyl groups are asymmetrically incorporated. With the aid of these functional groups, carboxyl, amino or thiol group, and PEG (200) are attached by thiol-ene (yne) click and photocoupling reactions.Langmuir 12/2014; 31(3).

Article: Visible Light-Induced Controlled Radical Polymerization of Methacrylates with Perfluoroalkyl Iodide as the Initiator in Conjugation with a Photoredox Catalyst fac-[Ir(ppy)](3)[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A new visible light-induced controlled radical polymerization of methacrylate with perfluoro-1-iodohexane (CF3(CF2)5I) as the initiator in the presence of a photoredox catalyst (fac-[Ir(ppy)3]) was developed. Mechanistically, a photoexcited fac-[Ir(ppy)3]* complex reacted with dormant C-I species to generate the chain propagating radical and IrIVI complex, which could be reversibly reduced by the propagating radical. The molecular weight (Mn) and the corresponding distribution index (Mw/Mn = 1.4) were controlled in the polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA). For the polymerization of functional monomers, such as glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) and trifluoroethyl methacrylate, their monomer conversions could be up to 96 and 94%, respectively. No polymerization reaction took place without external light stimulation, indicating that the system was an ideal photo "on−off" switchable system. Furthermore, a clean diblock copolymer PMMA-b-PGMA was successfully synthesized with PMMA-I as the macroinitiator. With CF3(CF2)5I as the initiator, short CF3(CF2)5− group tags were introduced on the produced polymer chains. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part A: Polym.

Article: A Facile Visible-Light-Induced Route to Functionalize Polymeric Substrates by Combining Controlled Radical Grafting Polymerization and Thiol−Yne Click Chemistry with Photoredox Catalyst Ir(ppy)3[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A novel strategy, based on surface‐initiated grafting polymerization and post‐polymerization thiol‐yne click chemistry, with Ir(ppy)3 as a sole photoredox catalyst, under visible light irradiation is developed. The "livingness" of the grafting polymerization is demonstrated by the linear increase of the graft yield with irradiation time and the block grafting polymerization. Then, acetenyl groups of poly(propargyl methacrylate) (PPMA) grafting chains are reacted with pentaerythritoltetra‐(3‐mercaptopropionate) via the thiol‐yne click reaction. The successful introduction of reactive thiol groups onto the low‐density polyethylene‐graft‐poly(propargyl methacrylate) (LDPE‐g‐PPMA) films is demonstrated by Fourier transform IR (FTIR) and X‐ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) spectroscopy, and the thiol‐ene click reaction with N‐(1‐pyrenyl) maleimide. With tris(2‐phenylpyridine)iridium (Ir(ppy)3) as a photoredox catalyst, visible‐light‐induced surface‐initiated controlled grafting polymerization and thiol‐yne click chemistry are exploited to functionalize a polymer substrate. This technology offers a robust tool to attach a high concentration of desired functional groups onto the surface of polymeric materials.Macromolecular Chemistry and Physics 07/2014; 215(14).

Article: Facile synthesis of core-shell, multiple compartment anisotropic particles via control of cross-linking and continuous phase separations in one-pot dispersion polymerization[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Preparation of anisotropic particles based on phase separation of prefabricated seeds in polymerizations generally involves multiple process steps. In conventional one-pot dispersion polymerization, only spherical particles are produced. Herein, anisotropic particles with asymmetrical core-shell structure, multiple compartments, and continuously tunable surface roughness and sizes were synthesized by a modified one-pot dispersion polymerization. A mixture of polar solvents, ethylene glycol (EG), and water (6/4, vol.) was used as medium for polymerization of styrene (St). In the presence of ammonium persulfate (APS) and vinyl acetate (VA), divinylbenzene (DVB, 16.1–66.4 %) and (St, 50.3–0 %) were added at 60, 180, and 360 min, respectively. Dense cross-linking was confined to exterior of swollen growing particles, resulting in phase separation and formation of snowman-like particles with coarse, core-shell structured body, and smooth, no or partially cross-linked head. The newly formed compartments were also inhomogeneously cross-linked and their phases separated, producing three and four compartment anisotropic particles with an aspect ratio up to 2.3. Gel content of final particles was less than 75 %. Due to a sequential cross-linking from growing particle to newly formed compartments, reaction stability and particle monodispersity were maintained even when high amounts of DVB were added. Asymmetrical morphologies, structures, sizes, and surface roughness of particles were continuously tuned by varying DVB amount and its start addition time. This one-pot method provides a simple, efficient route for synthesis of anisotropic particles.Colloid and Polymer Science 02/2014; 293(2):523-532. DOI:10.1007/s00396-014-3444-0 · 2.41 Impact Factor
Article: A Novel Macroinitiator Based on the Copolymer of α-Methylstyrene Synthesis and Its Application in Preparing Block and Graft Polymers[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Due to the steric hindrance effects in combination with stability of the tertiary benzylic alpha-methylstyryl radical, there is a dynamic equilibrium between the monomer alpha-methylstyrene (AMS) and its polymer (PAMS) when the temperature is greater than 61 degrees C (the ceiling polymerization temperature). Based on this unique feature, a novel strategy to prepare copolymers of AMS having liable bonds as potential macromolecular free radical initiators for synthesizing block and graft copolymers has been successfully developed in our laboratory. By conventional free radical polymerization, a series of AMS copolymers, including copolymers with (meth)acrylate, acrylic acid, styrene and maleic anhydride were synthesized. Typically, with the increasing of AMS fraction in monomer feed, the rate of copolymerization was significantly retarded and the molecular weight of the copolymers was reduced. However, the copolymer yield could be as high as 90% (w) with the increased addition of initiator, up to 4% (w), and the molar fraction of AMS structural unit in AMS copolymers could be up to 25% (mol%). It has been demonstrated that the copolymers containing AMS structural units are efficient free radical initiators when the temperature is greater than 80 degrees C (much better higher than 90 degrees C). These copolymers could be exploited as macroinitiator in preparing block copolymers and core-shell polymer particles by bulk, solution and emulsion polymerization processes. In addition, the experimental results demonstrated that the molecular weight of copolymer products prepared with AMS copolymers as macromolecular initiators increased steadily with the monomer conversion. Though the polymerization initiated by AMS copolymers was not a well-controlled living system yet, it showed some characteristics of living polymerization. The ESR spectrum presented direct evidence of the generation of carbon centered radicals in the products of copolymer of AMS with glycidyl methacrylate (PAG) heated with N-t-butyl-alpha-phenylnitrone at 90 degrees C in toluene. Besides initiating the polymerization of vinyl monomer to prepare diblock copolymer, the AMS copolymers offered a practical pathway to synthesize grafting polymers in melting state. For example, with the addition of PAG in the PP/Nylon melten blending, it has been demonstrated a significant in situ compatibilization effect and the formation of graft polymer of PAG and PP. Furthermore, the AMS copolymers could also be used to modify MWCNT by free radical grafting onto mechanism. Instead of competing with the other existing controlled free radical polymerization technologies, the AMS copolymer method, with competitive cost and no small molecular residues, offers an alternative tool for polymer chemists to develop block copolymers on an industrial scale for some applications, such as dispersant and compatibilizer.Acta Chimica Sinica -Chinese Edition- 02/2013; 71(2):151.

Article: Photoreactive, core-shell cross-linked/hollow microspheres prepared by delayed addition of cross-linker in dispersion polymerization for antifouling and immobilization of protein[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: When dispersion polymerization of styrene (St) had run for 3h, after particle rapidly growing stage, 4,4'-dimethacryloyloxybenzophenone (DMABP) cross-linker was added to reaction system and photoreactive, core(PSt)-shell(Poly(St-co-DMABP)) particles with rich benzophenone (BP) groups on surface were prepared. Polymerization of DMABP could occurred mainly on the preformed core of PSt because its diffusion could be impeded by (1) compactness of particles formed at the moment of cross-linker addition (more than 80% of monomer had been consumed, particles were no longer fully swollen by monomer), (2) reduced polarity of continuous phase, and (3) immediate occurrence of cross-linking. Subsequently, photoreactive, cross-linked hollow particles were yielded by removal of uncross-linked core in THF. SEM and TEM observation demonstrated the formation of core-shell structure and improvement of shell thickness when DMABP content increased. UV-vis spectra analysis on polymer dissolved in THF indicated that there is no polymer of DMABP in core. FTIR spectra analysis and XPS measurement further revealed that BP component on particle surface was enriched when amount of DMABP increased. Finally, an anti-fouling polymer (poly (ethylene glycol), PEG) and protein of mouse IgG was immobilized on particle surface under UV irradiation, as confirmed by FTIR spectra analysis, SEM observation and TMB color reaction.Journal of Colloid and Interface Science 08/2012; 389(1):126-33.

Article: Direct preparation of monodisperse core-shell microspheres with surface antibacterial property by using bicationic viologen surfmer[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: By exploringly introducing a bicationic viologen, N-hexyl-N'-(4-vinylbenzyl)-4,4′-bipyridinium bromide chloride (HVV) to dispersion polymerization of styrene (St) in a mixture of methanol and water, we achieved the following results: (1) monodisperse, core-shell microspheres with antibacterial surface were prepared by a simple one-step procedure, (2) diameter, core radii and shell thickness of resultant particles could be controlled by concentrations of HVV, monomer and initiator, and composition of media, (3) HVV could act not only as a monomer as that in previous modifications, but also as an efficient, novel stabilizer, and its copolymerization with St at interfacial layer and coagglutination of (co-)oligomers on core surface due to its moderate reactivity and hydrophilicity were conceived to be main reasons for formation of core-shell structures. Effects of HVV on polymerization behavior of St, evolution of core-shell structure, and morphology, size of particles were investigated. Moreover, antibacterial activity of resulted microspheres against Staphylococcus aureus was assayed.Polymer 05/2012; 53(11):2190–2196. DOI:10.1016/j.polymer.2012.03.038 · 3.77 Impact Factor

Article: Photo-induced living/controlled surface radical grafting polymerization and its application in fabricating 3-D micro-architectures on the surface of flat/particulate organic substrates[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This feature article covers the fundamental chemistry and applications of photo-induced living surface grafting polymerization. The mechanism of activation of inert alkyl C–H bonds of polymer substrates, the structures of the active free radical and reversible dormant species, the modes of the grafting chain growth (including linear, branched and cross-linked variants), and the role of spatial effect are discussed. Two technologies, i.e., 1-step and 2-step processes, their features and applications in fabricating polymer brushes with precisely controlled patterns, desired functions, branched and block grafting chains on planar substrates, and polymer lamination are presented. The fabrication of 3-dimensional covalently bonded polymer particles, such as nano-sized polymer particle monolayers (with uniform and bimodal distributions), discrete solid and hollow polymer particles of micrometer size, and multilayer polymer particles on polymeric substrates are also introduced.

Article: Direct Observations of Three Nucleation/Growth Processes of Charge-Stabilized Dispersion Polymerizations with Varying Water/Methanol Ratios[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This article presents observations of three polymerization modes of a self-developed cation-charge-stabilized styrene/water/methanol dispersion polymerization system: (1) a water/methanol (20/80) system, corresponding to a typical dispersion polymerization mode where the particle nucleation occurred in the solution phase and growth in the particle phase; (2) a pure CH(3)OH system, including a first nucleation in the solution phase with growth by absorption of the small particles and polymers formed in this phase, and a secondary nucleation with growth in the particle phase, when high molecular weight copolymers appeared in the solution phase; and (3) a water/methanol (5/95) system, similar to the conventional dispersion polymerization mode during the first 90 min, with subsequent epitaxial growth. Interestingly, the metastable state of the nucleation stage, including minuscule 6-nm particles, their aggregates, and the aggregating process, was first observed experimentally. By quantitatively following the relationship of the deposited molecular weight and the nucleation/growth process in the three systems, it was proposed that the molecular weight of the deposited polymer had to reach a specific high value before they could absorb or capture monomer to form smooth/spherical nuclei or particles.The Journal of Physical Chemistry B 09/2010; 114(34):10970-8.

Article: Preparation of Soft Hydrogel Nanoparticles with PNIPAm Hair and Characterization of Their Temperature-Induced Aggregation[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: There exists a great number of publications concerning the synthesis of core-shell and/or hairy particles by means of controlled/living polymerization. Nevertheless, how to fabricate ultrafine nanosized hairy particles, especially polymeric soft hairy particles, remains a significant challenge. This paper presents a simple self-developed approach consisting of a two-step photoinduced polymerization of cross-linked polyacrylamide (CLPAM) soft hydrogel nanoparticles (5-10 nm in diameter) grafted with poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAm) chains. The architecture of such ultrafine soft water-swollen CLPAM@PNIPAm core/shell nanoparticles (20-35 nm in diameter) demonstrated very specific temperature sensitive behaviors. During heating a fast association process was observed at approximately 33-34 degrees C and the singular hairy particles with 34 nm diameters clustered into aggregates that were approximately 120 nm in diameter. Raising the temperature further, however, led to a decrease in size to about 100 nm at 45 degrees C. This behavior was attributed to the formation of hydrophobic shell layers accompanying the shrinkage of PNIPAm chains with chain polar transformations. With the contraction pressure produced by further shrinkage of the hydrophobic shell layers, the soft fully swollen PAM cores expelled water and diminished in size. During the cooling process, these contracted cores that were trapped in the aggregates gave rise to an early dissociation. The hydrophilic hairy CLPAM@PNIPAm particles are believed to be potentially useful as carriers to specific target regions, e.g., cells for controlled drug delivery and other smart biomaterial applications.Langmuir 10/2009; 26(3):2076-82.

ABSTRACT: In virtue of the reversible coupling and cleaving mechanism involved isopropylthioxanthone (ITX), a precursor of poly(methyl methacrylate) ended with ITX residues (PMMA-ITXH) was firstly synthesized through the photopolymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) initiated by a binary system of ITX and ethyl-p-dimethyl amino benzoate (EDAB), and secondly, applying this precursor as a macroinitiator, block copolymer of poly(methyl methacrylate) and polystyrene (PMMA-b-PSt) was produced through a thermal activated radical polymerization of styrene (St) at a temperature above 80°C. The content of incorporation of the reduced ITX groups in the precursor was estimated by UV-vis spectrum analysis and the results indicated that it was greatly influenced by the ITX concentration in system. The presence of EDAB could promote the polymerization and result in high monomer conversions and low molecular weight of polymers with wide distributions, but had no evident effect on the incorporation of reduced ITX moieties in polymer. Furthermore, more monomer supplied in system was advantageous for the production of high molecular weight of polymers and provided apparently low content of reduced ITX residues in polymer. Using a selected precursor of PMMA-ITXH with a moderate level of reduced ITX residues, molecular weight and its distribution, the bulk polymerization of St was initiated. FTIR spectrum analysis and GPC measurement confirmed the formation of block copolymer of PMMA-b-PSt.Journal of Macromolecular Science Part A 07/2009; 46(9):921-927.

ABSTRACT: Polymeric Janus particles are obtained by UV-induced selective surface grafting polymerizations and coupling reactions, in virtue of the light-absorption of photoreactive materials such as the immobilized photoinitiator and spread photoinitiator solution on the surfaces exposed to UV light and the sheltering of densely arrayed immovable particles from light. Varying the monomers or macromolecules applied in photografting polymerization or coupling reaction, and choosing diverse polymeric particles of various size, bicolor and amphiphilic Janus particles could be successfully achieved. Observations by fluorescence microscope, scanning electron microscope ,and transmission electron microscope confirmed the asymmetrical morphology of the resultant Janus particles.Langmuir 07/2009; 25(18):11048-53.

ABSTRACT: As one of the major techniques developed to achieve surface modification of polymeric materials, UV-induced surface graft polymerization has been widely applied as a simple, useful and versatile approach to improve the surface properties of polymers. This review surveys the recent advances in UV light induced surface graft polymerizations, predominantly focusing on: (1) various initiating methods, controlled/living grafting, self-initiated grafting (grafting without the addition of photoinitiators), graft polymerizations with monomer pairs able to form charge transfer (CT) complexes, grafting in liquid, vapor and bulk phase, and the substrates used for grafting; (2) the topography of grafted surface layers, including granular structure, crosslinked structure, and well-defined structure; and (3) the application of techniques to prepare functionalized polymer surfaces with designed performances, e.g., to obtain polymer materials suitable for biomedical applications, membranes or microfluidics.Progress in Polymer Science 02/2009; 34(2):156-193.

Article: High Efficient Grafting Polymerization of Styrene on Surface of NBR Latex and Physical Properties of NBR/NBR-g-PSt Composite[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The grafting polymerization of styrene on the surface of commercial available vulcanized acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) latex was initiated by the heat decomposing cleavage of dormant groups of semipinacol (SP) immobilized firstly under UV irradiation. Extremely high grafting efficiency in the range from about 90% to nearly 100% could be achieved. Certain factors affinitive to the grafting polymerization, such as the concentration of monomer, the UV irradiation time taking on the immobilization of SP groups, and concentration of NBR latex containing SP groups, were investigated. It was noted that there was the highest conversion when the weight ratio of NBR and St was 4:6; the grafting polymerization had a constant grafting efficiency that was almost not affected by polymerization time and the ratio of NBR-SP/St. Furthermore, the morphologies of the thermal compression molded composites of NBR/NBR-g-PSt were observed by TEM and the thermal properties as well as tensile behaviors were examined. Obviously rubber-plastic transition could be displayed with the increasing of grafting yield. When the grafting yield was controlled at about 50%, the strength of modified rubbers increased significantly without losing its elongation.Polymer Journal 01/2008; 40(3):192-197.

Article: Surface photografting polymerization of trimethylolpropane triacrylate onto LDPE substrate in Tetrahydrofuran/Water mixtures[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A surface photografting polymerization (λ > 300 nm) of a multifunctional monomer which was trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA), was conducted with benzophenone (BP) as photoinitiator and LDPE as model substrate, in mixed solvents containing tetrahydrofuran (THF) and water. Proved by ATR-IR, highly crosslinked grafted layer was generated rapidly under UV irradiation. Effects on percent conversion of grafting are detailed with, such as feed ratio of BP to TMPTA, mass percent of TMPTA in the reaction system, mass percent of water in the mixed solvents and addition of the second monomer, methyl methacrylate (MMA). As both verified by SEM and AFM, relatively planar grafted layer was produced when photografting was carried out merely in THF; adding water in the reaction system caused the formation of "craters" in the grafted layer. In addition, effects of mass percent of water in the mixed solvents, UV irradiation time, TMPTA concentration and addition of MMA on the size, shape and quantity of the "craters" were investigated by SEM. A plausible mechanism for the formation of "craters" is also proposed. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2007Journal of Applied Polymer Science 10/2007; 106(1):621 - 629.

MMAmania.com can confirm that a main event title fight between newly crowned UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Rashad Evans (13-0-1) and former 205-pound kingpin Quinton Jackson (29-7) could be added to the UFC 96 card at the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio, on March 7.
Perhaps the only thing currently standing in the way is time — both fighters face relatively tight turnarounds (nine weeks) since their most recent winning performances at UFC 92: "The Ultimate 2008″ on Dec. 27.
If the showdown is eventually booked, it would be yet another attempt by the promotion to deliver UFC fans in the "Buckeye State" — who appear to be spoiled with colossal main events — another exciting showdown to cheer about.
UFC 82, the most recent pay-per-view (PPV) event to be held there, was a star-studded card that was packed with talent from the bottom up, featuring the 185-pound showdown between UFC Middleweight Champion, Anderson Silva, and the last man to hold the Pride FC 183-pound belt, Dan Henderson.
In addition, Randy Couture blew the lid of the Nationwide Arena back at UFC 68 when he returned from retirement to score and improbable win over Tim Sylvia to capture the heavyweight title at the age of 43.
Despite the opportunity to reclaim his light heavyweight title, "Rampage" was initially lukewarm to the idea of facing Evans in his first fight since flatlining Wanderlei Silva with a thunderous left hook at UFC 92: "The Ultimate 2008."
The new-look Jackson, poised and confident thanks to a new training camp at Wolfslair in the UK, had his sights set on former title holder and opposing coach from The Ultimate Fighter 7 Forrest Griffin.
Griffin scored an unlikely unanimous decision win over Jackson at UFC 86 back in July. This was after Jackson toppled Marvin Eastman, Chuck Liddell and Dan Henderson to reign supreme in the talent-rich 205-pound class. Jackson still feels like he was robbed by the judges and wants to prove that he is indeed the superior fighter.
It would have been a big money rematch, but more than likely not as big as a fight against "Sugar" now that Evans bested Griffin at UFC 92. Griffin also broke his left hand in the second round of that fight and apparently needed to have pins surgically inserted into his hand to help expedite the healing process.
In short, Jackson is the next in line for a shot at the gold with Griffin on the bench until at least the summer while the two other worthy challengers Thiago Silva and Lyoto Machida — set to collide at UFC 94: "St. Pierre vs Penn 2″ — determine who will be waiting for him should he prevail.

epwar - More proof the UFC hates Rashad!
Forrest got 6 months (24 weeks) between winning and his first title defense. Rashad gets 9 weeks and the quickest turnaround to defend in the UFC in recent years. They probably want the strap off him so they can do Rampage-Liddell III at UFC 100 in July (you know that is what they are thinking).

Alyce30909Age: 55-65Gender: Female5 Stars Out Of 5Absolutely LOVE this Bible!May 6, 2015Alyce30909Age: 55-65Gender: FemaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5It is so nice, and so special to me....to be able to have all these key words shown in the original language and luckily I had already bought the real large annotated concordances that accompany this Bible....with the numbers in it. I have had them ( 2, one with disc) for several years...and barely used them...never understood what those numbers were for...NOW I know!). I did not know about a dictionary that is also supposed to accompany this Bible. *** This Bible is beautiful in the leather! The pages are NOT stuck together along the edges, like some of the other new Bibles I have bought lately. ( Very frustrating and very hard to get apart! ) The layout is perfect and everything that they included in this Bible is perfect. The publishing company deserves a lot of credit, and so do the people who decided what exactly went into the Bible and everyone else associated with it. I only wish it had come out about 15 years sooner that it originally did. I sure could have used a Bible like this back in my Bible school and college days! All we had was the lexicon and then had to take a course in Greek to understand that! Thanks CBD for helping me discover this Bible and for offering it at such a steal of a price!

Blake Griffin calls the Warriors' tactics 'cowardly'
Things got heated on Christmas between the Warriors and Clippers, which resulted in a player from each side being ejected.
For the Warriors, it was Draymond Green for a high elbow to Blake Griffin. For the Clippers though it was Griffin, who already on a technical because of Green's elbow, picked up another when Andrew Bogut grabbed his jersey.
Griffin, clearly frustrated about being ejected in what resulted in a tight loss, didn't like the move by the Warriors.
"If you look at it, I didn't do anything, and I got thrown out of the game," Griffin told reporters, via ESPN LA. "It all boils down to they (the referees) fell for it. To me, that's cowardly. That's cowardly basketball."
The Warriors won 105-103, but Griffin essentially missed the entire fourth quarter.
Kind of the interesting catch to the situation was that upon being ejected, Green was very unhappy, claiming Griffin did something first to earn his elbow. So the Warriors may have felt slighted there and took it upon themselves to find justice for Griffin not being ejected then. Just a theory.
"Instead of just playing straight up and playing a game, it got into something more than that, and it's unfortunate because you want to play a team head-to-head," Griffin said. "You don't want to start playing other games and playing cowardly basketball."
By the appearance of the play, Griffin did nothing more than attempt to get free of Bogut's grasp. He didn't push, throw an elbow or say anything. Bogut was assessed a flagrant one for the play, but for whatever reason, the officials awarded Griffin his second technical. Whether it was an intentional move by the Warriors to disqualify Griffin or not, the fact the officials couldn't apply common sense to the situation was disappointing.
"[Bogut] got a flagrant 1, and I got thrown out," Griffin said. "He was grabbing on to me, and they called the foul and he grabbed the neck of my jersey, so I tried to back up knowing I only had one technical, but they did a good job. They sold it. They fell for it. ... I feel tonight I got two technicals for nothing."

World's largest ad-pusher seeks to push more ads.
Uh... let's just glance at the situation:
Google, an advertising/marketing company, puts out an OS for phones and tablets and gives it away for free and then allows users access to a repository system where free apps and games are often supplied... for free.
I'd say it was implied.
That said? I do not feel obligated to donate my bandwidth for free. I run AdFree which is a hosts file modifier. It's fairly effective.
I'll just have to get updates from non-market sources.
Wow, you have been fed incredible amounts of FUD. Where did you get this "information"?
None of the things you are scared of are true. All the "i would like it to work this way" are correct.
You still have a choice in phones and their operating systems, yes? What 'shoving' is taking place, exactly? Where is the 'evil' in offering another platform option?
You don't like Android's "free + ads", go try iOS, Windows Phone, Firefox OS, Ubuntu Mobile etc. Maybe try a less-restrictive app store, or (heaven forbid) just sideload an ad-blocker. Android still offers you those choices too.
...for now.
Probably very few.. Android isn't really locked down, so, they've simply deemed them as unsuitable for their own store. The only difference now is that you need to install an APK (which is easy to do). Or, install another App store.
Also, Mozilla makes a large amount of funding from search royalties via Google. So, it would be somewhat hypocritical to switch to Mozilla (unless they rejected Google's money).
I'm not exactly a power droid user, but ad-blocking is absolutely something that will push me to go look outside of the google store. Is that really what they want to do?
The evil marketing firms of the world can still survive in a world with AdBlock et al... They just need to cast a more narrow net - Target those who, for whatever reason (old? stupid? Researchers studying the behavior of bottom-feeders in a shrinking ecosystem?) don't block ads - And leave the rest of us the hell alone.
Wow, I've never actually SEEN someone use the Broken Window fallacy without being sarcastic. Good show, ol' bean!
As far as is possible with app stores, it forced some choices there that I'm sure Google didn't in any way want
If Google hadn't wanted, then they would have locked their device to their app store the same way Apple did. This decision sucks, but it only emphasises how much Google had it right when it came to Android; if Google does turn to the dark side, Android users can go somewhere else.
I'm gonna get modded down here for bringing Apple into this, but it is relevant and is exactly an example of why having alternative app sources is important for users. I've long held that Apple must be forced to allow apps installed from third-party sources and here is an exact reason as to why that would be beneficial. Want to install something that the vendor agrees with? You can do it with Android thanks to the Amazon store, F-droid, and the like. And in all honesty, it's somewhat fair of Google to do this - if they've put up the Play Store, then they should have the right to determine what gets sold on it.
But the problem with Apple and the Iphone ecosystem is that you don't have any such choice - once you buy an Iphone, you do what Apple tells you and that's the end of the story, until you go to the lengths of exploiting the operating system to install what you like. And I don't want to hear that it's not a problem because Apple doesn't have a monopoly, which should somehow enable them to impose their decisions on their customers. We've seen such a backlash in the US over the people's right to unlock their phone's bootloader because once you buy it, it's yours. How is that different in the case of Apple forcing you to install only apps that they approve of? Once you buy it, it's yours - you should be able to run whatever you want on it if you should also have the right of unlocking it and doing what you wish. And you shouldn't have to go to the lengths over exploiting the OS in order to do it.
Regardless, I'm not an Android or Google fanboy (anymore, if I ever was one to begin with), and though they are in general better than Microsoft and Apple, they are distancing themselves from the goodness that comes from non-profit producers such as Mozilla. I'm pretty much set on dumping Android if/when I replace my phone in the next few years, and it's their vigorous policy towards advertising wiht such utter disregard for privacy that is pushing me that way. If there's one thinig I hate as a consumer, it's being treated like a sheep. Seems like FirefoxOS, Ubuntu Mobile, or crazily enough, maybe even Blackberry is the way to go.
Sounds like something that should be OK on an open platform.
The problem with Google is the incosistant way the Play Store is policed.
Look at e.g Snes emulators. (Snesdroid was the original yongzh did pretty much all the initial ones (He open sourced his code at some point) / Snes9xEx is from a pretty honest guy (It was removed once he never contemplated reuploading it).
There is still loads of paid snes emulators. (Probably mostly based on the work of the above 2 people.)
Google are not the company they once were. (I did actually believe they didn't do much evil for a while at least that negatively affected me).
I don't see how the parent is using the Broken Window fallacy. That appears to have to do with destruction, and thus the forced expenditure of resources for replacement not having a net benefit for the economy because the resources would have been spent anyway, elsewhere. The parent is talking about the preservation of resources, which would not have been spent anyway and will likely be spent elsewhere. It's about the dead opposite.
If you're referring to google, they are seeing a lack of revenue, not a forced expenditure, which again, doesn't match the Broken Window fallacy. Ad blockers are breaking their revenue chain, not forcing more spending. They'd be the equivalent of plexiglass eroding the glazier's market.
"Yes, Google gives all that stuff away in the hopes of making money on advertising revenue. But advertising to people who really don't want it (to the point they would actively block it) costs money."
Almost all apps have a pay-for ad-free version, and if you can afford a smartphone and a phone control, you can damn well afford to pay a buck or two for the paid version. Yes, some people are so tight-assed that they'll do anything to avoid paying a buck for an app, and such people will probably go to the effort of sideloading ad-blockers etc, but I see no reason whatsoever that Google shouldn't make it harder for the average user to block ads. Blocking ads in advertising-funded apps is essentially the same as software piracy, and there's no reason why they should make it easy. Ad blockers that only block ads in the browser might be a different story.
And before you ask, yes, I do use an ad blocker for my desktop web browsing, however a) I do disable it on sites such as slashdot that I want to support, and that behave sensibly as far as the level and nature of advertising, and b) I don't generally have the option to pay a buck or to to get rid of the ads.
Being "open" in no way impacts google's way to block them. You can still load these blockers from any other android store if it chooses to make them available. That is the point of OS being "open".
Google's point here is to obviously make them as invisible as possible to minimize users that block ads. Most people won't go around other android stores or internet sites searching for software, they're fairly happy with google play.
You can't shop at the Play Store unless you are willing to be relentlessly bombarded with ads and your entire life's every moved tracked to improve the bottom line of Google Corporation.
Google doesn't just make glasses. They want to own your eyeballs as well.
Just the other day there were people railing against Destructoid for complaining about ad blockers. Now, apparently as long as Google is involved, it is OK to allow ads to protect developers.
You also seem to think a lot of yourself, don't you Somersault?
A corporation will do ANYTHING to defend its cashflow. Any corporation, even Google.
It's time to drop the "even" when referring to Google.
Probably very few.. Android isn't really locked down, so, they've simply deemed them as unsuitable for their own store. The only difference now is that you need to install an APK (which is easy to do). Or, install another App store.
Or just refuse to use apps that keep popping up obnoxious ads all the time. Google wants developers to get paid via ads, because it lines Google's pocket, too. However, a developer can, and many do, charge a fair price for their app and there aren't any ads involved.
Personally, I believe developers should be paid for their work, so blocking ads deprive them of that. However, as the customer, if I don't like the payment method (ads), I can take my business elsewhere, and do. Developers respond to supply and demand like everybody else.
All the ad blockers I know of (granted, I've not exactly researched the multitudes, so this may be wrong) require root access on your device.
