Ladies Against Feminism is putting a completely different spin on the recent Supreme Court Hobby Lobby Decision by quoting Mercator Net. Their claim is that the main reason insurance companies cover birth control is because it's cheaper than pay for a baby.As quoted at Ladies Against Feminism - If anyone thought the controversy over Obamacare's contraceptive mandate finished with the Supreme Court's decision it's time to think again. Over the past months the battle has been framed as conscience rights versus contraceptive rights. Now that conscience has won the first fight on points, a second round could be fought over money. … [Read more...]

by the Duggar girls in their book "Growing Up Duggar" page 114 This doesn't mean we're to ignore the fact that God has created us to have a natural physical desire toward men. When these feelings arise, we thank God of making us 'normal.' Withing a godly marriage, this kind of desire can be a wonderful blessing that bonds the husband and wife together in the way God intended. But during our single years, this physical attract, if not carefully controlled, can also be one of the biggest sources of temptation and struggles.

This groom's cake that is a replica of Davis Wade Stadium at Scott Field, where the Mississippi State Bulldogs play, is absolutely incredible. The amount of detail that went into it, right down to the advertisements on the scoreboard, was absolutely amazing. It even had a huge banner of head coach Dan Mullen screaming hanging from the stands.

The Detroit Arrow is Shinola's new single-speed bicycle - streamlined for urban riding and hand assembled by our bike specialists in Detroit.
Available in black and white color options, in both men's and women's frame styles, the Detroit Arrow features a completely new TIG-welded TrueTemper steel frame design, manufactured at Waterford Precision Cycles in Wisconsin.
The Detroit Arrow is hand assembled with an all-black component spec, including a Shinola leather saddle, cork grips, fenders, chain guard and bell. Custom laser-cut rear dropouts feature the Shinola "S," which matches the same "S" detail cast in our proprietary fork crown.
Threaded eyelets in the rear dropouts accept fenders and rear racks. Puncture-resistant 700x32 C tires witha 3M reflective strip deliver a smooth, safe ride.
Each component is fitted by hand and tested for quality precision. This close attention to detail ensures that every bicycle that ships from our Detroit workshop delivers impeccable reliability and craftsmanship.
Please allow 5-7 days for US delivery.
Estimated Arrival 7/13 - 7/15
When you purchase a bicycle from Shinola/Detroit, we want to ensure that you are pleased with your purchase and experience. We understand the decision to purchase a bicycle on-line is not a casual one. It's a substantial investment and it is costly to ship.
We ask that if you have any reservations prior to your purchase, that you please call or e-mail us with your concerns and/or questions. It will be more cost-effective to deal with fit or technical inquires prior to purchase, versus after. We have confidence that our sizing chart, in conjunction with our frame design, will yield the correct size bike.
If for some reason you are not satisfied with your Shinola bicycle, you are welcome to return it within 30 days. Please note, all bicycle returns incur a 20% re-stocking fee. This fee represents all costs associated with returning a bicycle, inclusive of inspection, our custom pedal ready box, labor, warehouse handling, paperwork, and depreciation. Customers are responsible for all shipping costs and all bicycles must be returned in their original box with all accompanying materials.
For customers in need of an exchange in size, there's a 10% re-stocking fee. Customers are also responsible for all shipping costs.
Any damage incurred during a return shipment is also the customers responsibility and will be factored into the customers final credit back.
Please call us at 1-844-744-6652 or e-mail us at email@example.com, if you have any further questions about Shinola/Detroit's Return Policy for Bicycles.

just the Research
This weeks top reports in just-drinks research store
Here's a run-down of some of the top research reports currently available in the just-drinks research store:
This report forecasts the global alcohol market by country, category and price quality. It provides detailed estimates of the markets for wines, spirits, mixed drinks, beer and cider in 61 major countries and straight-lines the remaining countries, giving the numbers and the reasoning and explanation behind these forecasts. The straight-line forecasts are then modified by the IWSR analysts.
In 2012, economic uncertainty, low levels of disposable income, stubbornly high unemployment and a worsening euro crisis resulted in a tough trading environment for all in Ireland. The alcoholic drinks industry was no exception, continuing to trade valiantly despite increasing consumer frugality, lower consumption levels and the widespread prevalence of below-cost selling. This report looks at the effect on alcoholic drinks in the country.
This comprehensive study of the leading beverage category in the US examines trends and top companies' strategies, providing up-to-date statistics and detailed analysis of leading brands, packaging, channels of distribution, regional markets, pricing, demographics, advertising, five-year growth projections and more.
This report offers a comprehensive guide to the size and shape of the soft drinks market at a national level in France. It provides the latest retail sales data (2008-2012), allowing you to identify the sectors driving growth. It also identifies the leading companies and brands, and offers strategic analysis of key factors influencing the market – be they legislative, distribution, packaging or pricing issues. Forecasts to 2017 illustrate how the market is set to change.
This report analyses current and future trends for the spirits market in Brazil including top-line forecasts for other categories and background information on the market. Analysis is broken down into the following categories: whisky, vodka, gin, Tequila, national spirits, rum, cane, Cognac/brandy, liqueurs, bitters and spirit aperitifs, aniseed and fruit and other eaux de vie.
This latest edition of the vodka report explores the burgeoning trend for flavoured vodka - confectionery-style flavours, spicy, all-natural and esoteric flavours, plus a resurgence of old traditional flavours. Local artisanal products and craft-distilled vodkas are also becoming more mainstream, as the report demonstrates.
Get a detailed picture of the wine market in Russia from this report. See how stricter government regulations are impacting the industry, along with possible minimum pricing regulations, restrictions on trading hours and sales channels, a ban on advertising alcoholic products and strenuous import controls, which demand that importers require separate licences to import wine and then distribute it in the country.
In Hong Kong, ongoing publicity about wine and its health benefits sustained consumers' interest in the category during 2012. Encouraged by improved disposable incomes, consumers were more experimental with wine. They were also increasingly willing to trade-up to premium wine for its perceived better quality and taste, besides seeing wine consumption as a status symbol.

County board debates approval of zip line loanMon, 07/29/2013 - 2:11pm
After a motion to approve a county revolving fund loan for Superior Zip Lines failed for lack of a second at the county board meeting on July 23, 2013, a heated debate broke out, but it resulted in a favorable outcome for the applicant.
Hal Greenwood of the Cook County Revolving Loan Fund Committee brought a recommendation to the board for a loan of $250,000 to Matt Geretschlaeger for the construction of Superior Zip Lines, to be located just off the Gunflint Trail above Grand Marais.
Last July, the county board approved the loan upon the recommendation of the Revolving Loan Fund Committee. Three months later, the board approved a revised loan agreement that reflected changes in financing. That agreement was contingent upon Geretschlaeger securing a loan of $350,000 from the Iron Range Resource and Rehabilitation Board (IRRRB).
On July 23, Geretschlaeger returned to the board for a renewal of its approval because his financing had not been finalized within six months as required by county guidelines and because it was different from what had been stipulated: Geretschlaeger had not gotten a loan from the IRRRB, but he did get a grant of $191,000 instead. He also got a loan of $266,000 from the U.S. Small Business Administration.
The total project cost, including the land, will be $825,000 and will be done in phases. Geretschlaeger said he had contracts in place with fixed prices for construction. He expects to seasonally employ up to 26 people part-time and two people full-time.
Geretschlaeger had three pieces of property he would be using as collateral for the Revolving Loan Fund loan. The county would be in second position on Geretschlaeger's home, valued at $535,000 last summer when the business plan was presented to the county board. The county would be in first position on two other pieces of property valued at $46,800 and $82,400.
Bear hunt lottery winners must purchase license by August 1Mon, 07/29/2013 - 2:09pm
Hunters selected in this year's bear lottery must purchase their licenses by Thursday, Aug. 1, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) said. Licenses not purchased by the deadline will become available first-come, first-served at noon Wednesday, Aug. 7. Youths age 10-12 can receive a free no-quota bear license until Aug. 1. No-quota licenses will be available for purchase after Aug.1 but youth younger than 13 will have to pay the full price of $44 because of an inadvertent change in state law that eliminated the 10- to 12-year-old exemption from this fee. Youths who purchase leftover licenses in regular bear permit areas also will have to pay the adult price.

North House a "Minnesota institution"Sun, 07/28/2013 - 8:22am
The Minnesota State Arts Board has awarded 154 grants totaling $13,873,269 to Minnesota organizations through its operating support program and the Community Arts Schools and Conservatories program. North House Folk School was one of those grant recipients, receiving $44,405 to continue its work.
North House Executive Director Greg Wright explained that the operating support program assists schools and arts programs that are considered "Minnesota institutions."
Wright said the Minnesota State Arts Board understands the challenges of "keeping the lights on" and the operational support grants help meet day-to-day operations.
Unlike the grant that North House received from the Minnesota State Arts Board when it expanded its Unplugged: Northern Harvest event to include MPR's Mountain Stage, which was an "Arts Tour" grant, operating support grants can be received more than once.
According to the Minnesota Arts Board, grants awarded in the operating support program support high quality, established arts organizations that produce, present, or exhibit works of art; nonprofit organizations that provide a broad range of services to artists; and community arts schools and conservatories that make arts learning available to Minnesotans of all ages and abilities. To ensure that North House is fulfilling that mission, members of the Minnesota State Arts Board visit the Grand Marais campus several times each year.
"They are very diligent about making sure we're doing what we are supposed to be doing," said Wright.
The operating support grant program is funded by an appropriation from the Minnesota State Legislature from the State of Minnesota general fund and the arts and cultural heritage fund and funding from the National Endowment for the Arts.

The system is made of N iso-frequency sensors, each of them transmitting and receiving the signals. The system would combine the continuous imaging capabilities of a geostationary SAR, gaining a factor N^{2} in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The real aperture would be achievable in \sim 40 min, enabling applications so far unseen, such as monitoring fast deformations, landslides, and other applications for emergency and security. Still, the SNR of the long acquisition time would be conserved.

Abstract: Spray drift is one of the main sources of pesticide contamination. For this reason, an accurate understanding of this phenomenon is necessary in order to limit its effects. Nowadays, spray drift is usually studied by using in situ collectors which only allow time-integrated sampling of specific points of the pesticide clouds. Previous research has demonstrated that the light detection and ranging (lidar) technique can be an alternative for spray drift monitoring. This technique enables remote measurement of pesticide clouds with high temporal and distance resolution. Despite these advantages, the fact that no lidar instrument suitable for such an application is presently available has appreciably limited its practical use. This work presents the first eye-safe lidar system specifically designed for the monitoring of pesticide clouds. Parameter design of this system is carried out via signal-to-noise ratio simulations. The instrument is based on a 3-mJ pulse-energy erbium-doped glass laser, an 80-mm diameter telescope, an APD optoelectronic receiver and optomechanically adjustable components. In first test measurements, the lidar system has been able to measure a topographic target located over 2 km away. The instrument has also been used in spray drift studies, demonstrating its capability to monitor the temporal and distance evolution of several pesticide clouds emitted by air-assisted sprayers at distances between 50 and 100 m. 2015-04-13T11:48:16Z Faraday rotation retrieval using SMOS radiometric data http://hdl.handle.net/2117/27187 Title: Faraday rotation retrieval using SMOS radiometric data Authors: Corbella Sanahuja, Ignasi; Wu, Lin; Torres Canals, Francesc; Duffo Ubeda, Núria; Martín Neira, Manuel Abstract: Faraday rotation is dynamically computed from L-band radiometric data acquired by the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity satellite. Improved full polarimetric image reconstruction and smart spatiotemporal filtering are used to obtain good estimations of Faraday rotation, which compare very well with the values theoretically predicted from available ionosphere and geomagnetic field data. 2015-04-08T17:08:56Z Direction-sensitive transverse velocity measurement by phase-modulated structured light beams http://hdl.handle.net/2117/27144 Title: Direction-sensitive transverse velocity measurement by phase-modulated structured light beams Authors: Rosales Guzmán, Carmelo; Hermosa, Nathaniel; Belmonte Molina, Aniceto; Pérez Torres, Juan Abstract: The use of structured light beams to detect the velocity of targets moving perpendicularly to the beam's propagation axis opens new avenues for remote sensing of moving objects. However, determining the direction of motion is still a challenge because detection is usually done by means of an interferometric setup, which only provides an absolute value of the frequency shift. In this Letter, we present a novel method that addresses this issue. It uses dynamic control of the phase in the transverse plane of the structured light beam so that the direction of the particles' movement can be deduced. This is done by noting the change in the magnitude of the frequency shift as the transverse phase of the structured light is moved appropriately. We demonstrate our method with rotating microparticles that are illuminated by a Laguerre-Gaussian beam with a rotating phase about its propagation axis. Our method, which only requires a dynamically configurable optical beam generator, can easily be used with other types of motion by appropriate engineering and dynamic modulation of the phase of the light beam. 2015-04-07T14:38:16Z Atmospheric boundary-layer height estimation using a Kalman filter and a frequency-modulated continuous-wave radar http://hdl.handle.net/2117/27128 Title: Atmospheric boundary-layer height estimation using a Kalman filter and a frequency-modulated continuous-wave radar Authors: Lange, Diego; Rocadenbosch Burillo, Francisco; Tiana Alsina, Jordi; Frasier, Steve Abstract: An adaptive solution based on an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) is proposed to estimate the Atmospheric Boundary-Layer Height (ABLH) from Frequency-Modulated Continuous-Wave (FMCW) S-band weather-radar returns. The EKF estimator departs from previous works, in which the transition interface between the Mixing-Layer (ML) and the Free-Troposphere (FT) is modeled by means of an erf-like parametric function. In contrast to lidar remote sensing where aerosols give strong backscatter returns over the whole ML, clear-air radar reflectivity returns (Bragg scattering from refractive turbulence) shows strongest returns from the ML-FT interface. In addition, they are corrupted by "insect" noise (impulsive noise associated with Rayleigh scatter ing from insects and birds), all of which requires a specific treatment of the problem and the measurement noise for the clear-air radar case. The proposed radar-ABLH estimation method uses: (i) a first pre-processing of the reflectivity returns based on median filtering and threshold-limited decision to obtain "clean" reflectivity signal, (ii) a modified EKF with adaptive range intervals as time tracking estimator, and (iii) ad-hoc modelling of the observation noise covariance. The method has successfully been implemented in clear-air, single-layer, convective boundary layer conditions. ABLH estimates from the proposed radar-EKF method have been cross-examined with those from a collocated lidar ceilometer yielding a correlation coefficient as high as rho = 0.93 (mean signal-to-noise ratio, SNR = 18 (linear units), at the ABLH) and in relation to the classic threshold method. 2015-04-07T09:46:02Z Monitoring of the Eyjafjallajokull volcanic aerosol plume over the Iberian Peninsula by means of four EARLINET lidar stations http://hdl.handle.net/2117/27126 Title: Monitoring of the Eyjafjallajokull volcanic aerosol plume over the Iberian Peninsula by means of four EARLINET lidar stations Authors: Sicard, Michaël; Guerrero Rascado, Juan Luis; Navas Guzmán, Francisco; Preissler, J.; Molero, Francisco; Tomás Martinez, Sergio; Bravo Aranda, Juan Antonio; Comerón Tejero, Adolfo; Rocadenbosch Burillo, Francisco; Wagner, F.; Pujadas Cordero, Manuel; Alados Arboledas, Lucas Abstract: Lidar and sun-photometer measurements were performed intensively over the Iberian Peninsula (IP) during the eruption of the Eyjafjallajokull volcano (Iceland) in April–May 2010. The volcanic plume reached all the IP stations for the first time on 5 May 2010. A thorough study of the event was conducted for the period 5–8 May. Firstly, the spatial and temporal evolution of the plume was described by means of lidar and sun-photometer measurements supported with backtrajectories. The volcanic aerosol layers observed over the IP were rather thin (<1000 m) with a top height up to 11–12 km. However, in some cases at the beginning of the period the thickness of those layers reached several kilometers in Evora and Madrid. The optical thicknesses associated to those layers were rather low (between 0.013 and 0.020 in average over the whole period), with peak values near 0.10 detected on 7 May. Secondly, the volcanic aerosols were characterized in terms of extinction and backscatter coefficients, lidar ratios, Angstrom exponents and linear particle depolarization ratio. Lidar ratios at different sites varied between 30 and 50 sr without a marked spectral dependency. Similar extinction-related Angstrom exponents varying between 0.6 and 0.8 were observed at different sites. The temporal evolution of the backscatter-related Angstrom exponents points out a possible decrease of the volcanic particle size as the plume moved from west to east. Particle depolarization ratios on the order of 0.06–0.08 confirmed the coexistence of both ash and non-ash particles. Additionally, profiles of mass concentration were obtained with a method using the opposite depolarizing effects of ash particles (strongly depolarizing), non-ash particles (very weakly depolarizing), and sun-photometer observations. In Granada the ash mass concentration was found to be approximately 1.5 times higher than that of non-ash particles, and probably did not exceed the value of 200 µgm-3 during the whole event. 2015-04-07T09:22:05Z Nearly zero inclination geosynchronous SAR mission analysis with long integration time for earth observation http://hdl.handle.net/2117/26994 Title: Nearly zero inclination geosynchronous SAR mission analysis with long integration time for earth observation Authors: Ruiz Rodon, Josep; Broquetas Ibars, Antoni; Makhoul Varona, Eduardo; Monti Guarnieri, Andrea; Rocca, Fabio Abstract: In this paper, the performance of a nearly zero inclination and low eccentricity geosynchronous synthetic aperture radar (GEOSAR) mission for midlatitude (30 degrees-60 degrees) Earth observation is analyzed. The slow motion of such satellites with respect to the Earth's surface makes it necessary to consider long coherent combination of pulses during hours to reach the desired along-track resolution. A system based on moderate transmitted powers and antenna sizes is considered. The necessary sensitivity in such GEOSAR system is obtained from the accumulated energy of the raw data using a pulse repetition frequency above the Doppler bandwidth and a long integration time. Several issues as a result of the long acquisition, such as target and atmospheric phase screen decorrelation, speckle noise impact on the received signal, and satellite station-keeping requirements, are analyzed. The feasibility of such systems to be placed on a broadcasting communication satellite makes nearly zero inclination GEOSAR a low-cost alternative of current SAR missions. 2015-03-24T15:00:48Z Dual-polarization GNSS-R interference pattern technique for soil moisture mapping http://hdl.handle.net/2117/26527 Title: Dual-polarization GNSS-R interference pattern technique for soil moisture mapping Authors: Alonso Arroyo, Alberto; Camps Carmona, Adriano José; Aguasca Solé, Alberto; Forte Veliz, Giuseppe Francesco; Monerris Belda, Alessandra; Rudiger, Christoph; Walker, Jeffrey; Hyuk, Park; Pascual Biosca, Daniel; Onrubia Ibáñez, Raúl Abstract: The interference pattern technique (IPT) consists of the coherent addition of the direct and reflected global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) signals in the receiving antenna. The detected power oscillates (fading), and the amplitude of these oscillations is very sensitive to the soil reflection coefficient at the specular reflection point. Therefore, variations of the reflection coefficient can be mapped, and thus dielectric constant variations, from which soil moisture can be retrieved. This work extends the use of the IPT technique from vertical polarization (V-Pol) to horizontal polarization (H-Pol). Moreover, the IPT equations are reformulated to facilitate the combination of dual-polarization retrievals. Simulations of the interference patterns at V-and H-Pol are presented for different soil moisture conditions. An upgrade of the SMIGOL GNSS-R instrument for dual-polarization observations is presented. This instrument was deployed in a flat, dry grassland in Yanco, Australia, in order to validate the proposed concepts. Finally, a comparison between the data retrieved from the SMIGOL instrument and the ground-truth soil moisture data is presented showing a good agreement between them and rainfall information. 2015-02-26T15:56:38Z El Ingeniero desde el concepto de servicio http://hdl.handle.net/2117/26339 Title: El Ingeniero desde el concepto de servicio Authors: Elias Fusté, Antonio; Torres Torres, Francisco Abstract: Las exigencias actuales del entorno laboral hacen que el periodo de formación de un ingeniero no acabe con la obtención de su título, sino que continúe de forma muy importante a lo largo de toda su vida profesional. La profesionalización de la docencia en todos sus niveles hace patente que la formación de carácter científico-técnico tenga que ser complementada con conocimientos de tipo social y gerencial, dando lugar a la llamada formación integral del ingeniero. Un punto de vista muy útil a la hora de planificar y desarrollar la carrera profesional del ingeniero es aquel por el cual se le define como un profesional que ofrece un servicio de ingeniería. Así, el ingeniero desarrolla su carrera profesional a medida que aumenta la calidad y cantidad de los servicios que es capaz de ofrecer a sus clientes (compañeros, superiores, departamentos, empresas, organismos oficiales, etc). El diagrama de bloques de la figura 1 explicita el hecho de que en la actualidad la Universidad se ha especializado en proveer un servicio a la sociedad consistente en la formación de ingenieros. Éste se ha revelado muy efectivo para dotar a los alumnos de una sólida base de conocimientos científico-técnicos y para potenciar ciertas aptitudes como la capacidad de abstracción, el pensamiento sistemático, la capacidad de análisis, etc. ; dejando sin embargo, aspectos formativos de tipo social y gerencial para el aprendizaje autodidacta o a cargo de las empresas, ya en una etapa post-académica. 2015-02-13T12:46:29Z Combining SMOS with visible and near/shortwave/thermal infrared satellite data for high resolution soil moisture estimates http://hdl.handle.net/2117/25965 Title: Combining SMOS with visible and near/shortwave/thermal infrared satellite data for high resolution soil moisture estimates Authors: Sanchez Ruiz, Sergio; Piles Guillem, Maria; Sanchez, Nilda; Martinez Fernandez, Jose; Vall-Llossera Ferran, Mercedes Magdalena; Camps Carmona, Adriano José Abstract: Sensors in the range of visible and near-shortwave-thermal infrared regions can be used in combination with passive microwave observations to provide soil moisture maps at much higher spatial resolution than the original resolution of current radiometers. To do so, a new downscaling algorithm ultimately based on the land surface temperature (LST) - Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) - Brightness Temperature (T-B) relationship is used, in which shortwave infrared indices are used as vegetation descriptors, instead of the more common near infrared ones. The theoretical basis of those indices, calculated as the normalized ratio of the 1240, 1640 and 2130 nm shortwave infrared (SWIR) bands and the 858 nm near infrared (NIR) band indicate that they are able to provide estimates of the vegetation water content. These so-called water indices extracted from MODIS products, have been used together with MODIS LST, and SMOS T-B to improve the spatial resolution of similar to 40 km SMOS soil moisture estimates. The aim was to retrieve soil moisture maps with the same accuracy as SMOS, but at the same resolution of the MODIS dataset, i.e., 500 m, which were then compared against in situ measurements from the REMEDHUS network in Spain. Results using two years of SMOS and MODIS data showed a similar performance for the four indices, with slightly better results when using the index derived from the first SWIR band. For the areal-average, a coefficient of correlation (R) of similar to 0.61 and similar to 0.72 for the morning and afternoon orbits, respectively, and a centered root mean square difference (cRMSD) of similar to 0.04 m(3) m(-3) for both orbits was obtained. A twofold improvement of the current versions of this downscaling approach has been achieved by using more frequent and higher spatial resolution water indexes as vegetation descriptors: (1) the spatial resolution of the resulting soil moisture maps can be enhanced from similar to 40 km up to 500 m, and (2) more accurate soil moisture maps (in terms of R and cRMSD) can be obtained, especially in periods of high vegetation activity. The results of this study support the use of high resolution LST and SWIR-based vegetation indices to disaggregate SMOS observations down to 500 m soil moisture maps, meeting the needs of fine-scale hydrological applications. 2015-01-20T15:03:41Z Cross-correlation waveform analysis for conventional and interferometric GNSS-R approaches http://hdl.handle.net/2117/25959 Title: Cross-correlation waveform analysis for conventional and interferometric GNSS-R approaches Authors: Martín Alemany, Francisco; Camps Carmona, Adriano José; Hyuk, Park; d'Addio, Salvatore; Martín Neira, Manuel; Pascual Biosca, Daniel Abstract: Reflectometry using Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS-R) signals has become an attractive tool for Earth remote sensing. Back to 1993, it was proposed as an alternative to the conventional spaceborne ocean altimetry to estimate the sea surface height over a large field-of-view. After Doppler compensation, the cross-correlation of the received scattered signal with either a locally generated replica [conventional GNSS-R (cGNSS-R)] or either the direct signal (interferometric GNSS-R (iGNSS-R)] is called the waveform. This paper provides a critical review of the cross-correlation waveform model, addressing issues such as the correlation characteristics, the bandwidth, the observation geometry, and the thermal and speckle noises. It provides a comprehensive and systematic overview of the impact of all these effects on the GNSS-R observables, which is important to properly define future GNSS-R instrument and mission concepts. 2015-01-19T17:36:13Z SMOS and aquarius radiometers: inter-comparison over selected targets http://hdl.handle.net/2117/25154 Title: SMOS and aquarius radiometers: inter-comparison over selected targets Authors: Pablos Hernández, Miriam; Piles Guillem, Maria; González Gambau, Veronica; Vall-Llossera Ferran, Mercedes Magdalena; Camps Carmona, Adriano José; Martinez, Justino Abstract: Passive microwave remote sensing at L-band is considered to be the most suitable technique to measure soil moisture and ocean salinity. These two variables are needed as inputs of predictive models, to improve climate and weather forecast, and to increase our knowledge of the water cycle. Nowadays, there are two space missions providing frequent and global observations of moisture and salinity of the Earth's surface with L-band radiometers on-board. The first one is the ESA's SMOS satellite, launched on November 2, 2009, which carries a two-dimensional, multi-angular, and full-polarimetric synthetic aperture radiometer. The second one is the NASA/CONAE's Aquarius/SAC-D mission, launched on June 10, 2011, which includes three beam push-broom real aperture radiometers. The objective of this work is to compare SMOS and Aquarius brightness temperatures and verify the continuity and consistency of the data over the entire dynamic range of observations. This is paramount if data from both radiometers are used for any long term enviromental, meteorological, hydrological, or climatological studies. The inter-comparison approach proposed is based on the study of 1 year of measurements over key target regions selected as representative of land, ice, and sea surfaces. The level of linearity, the correlation, and the differences between the observations of the two radiometers are analyzed. Results show a higher linear correlation between SMOS and Aquarius brightness temperatures over land than over sea. A seasonal effect and spatial inhomogeneities are observed over ice, at the Dome-C region. In all targets, better agreement is found in horizontal than in vertical polarization. Also, the correlation is higher at higher incidence angles. These differences indicate that there is a non-linear effect between the two instruments, not only a bias. 2015-01-07T16:24:16Z Comparison between differential SAR interferometry and ground measurements data in the displacement monitoring of the earth-dam of Conza della Campania (Italy) http://hdl.handle.net/2117/25138 Title: Comparison between differential SAR interferometry and ground measurements data in the displacement monitoring of the earth-dam of Conza della Campania (Italy) Authors: Di Martire, Diego; Iglesias González, Rubén; Monells Miralles, Daniel; Centolanza, Giuseppe; Sica, Stefania; Ramondini, Massimo; Pagano, Luca; Mallorquí Franquet, Jordi Joan; Calcaterra, Domenico Abstract: This paper presents the application of Differential Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) interferometry (DInSAR) algorithms for the precise monitoring of earth dams ground deformation. The test site selected for this study is the Conza Dam, located in the southern Apennines (Italy), very close to the epicenter of the big earthquake (M-w = 6.9) which took place on November 23th, 1980, striking the Irpinia region. Among the multiple advanced DInSAR techniques developed by the SAR community during the last decade, this work uses the so-called SUBSOFT software, developed by the Remote Sensing Laboratory (RSLab) group from the Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya (UPC), which is based on the use of Coherent Pixels Technique (CPT) algorithm. The analysis is carried out using 51 ENVIronmental SATellite-Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (ENVISAT-ASAR) images, corresponding to the period from 29th of November 2002 to the 30th of July 2010. In this framework, ground displacements recorded by a network of conventional ground-based sensors are also available for the same temporal span. Indeed, the embankment dam is well instrumented to measure internal settlements by means of cross-arms placed in six different cross-sections, and superficial displacements by means of targets for precise leveling. A statistical analysis has been performed to carry out a better comparison between the measurements obtained with the conventional field sensors and the interferometric data. The high agreement between final DInSAR displacements and in-situ instrumental data, demonstrates the reliability of such technique for the precise monitoring of civil infrastructures, and concretely, in dams with a high exposure factor and its consequent risk. 2014-12-23T17:05:23Z A downscaling approach for SMOS land observations: evaluation of high-resolution soil moisture maps over the Iberian Peninsula http://hdl.handle.net/2117/25115 Title: A downscaling approach for SMOS land observations: evaluation of high-resolution soil moisture maps over the Iberian Peninsula Authors: Piles Guillem, Maria; Sanchez, Nilda; Vall-Llossera Ferran, Mercedes Magdalena; Camps Carmona, Adriano José; Martinez Fernandez, Jose; Martinez, Justino; González Gambau, Veronica Abstract: The ESA's Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission is the first satellite devoted to measure the Earth's surface soil moisture. It has a spatial resolution of similar to 40 km and a 3-day revisit. In this paper, a downscaling algorithm is presented as a new ability to obtain multiresolution soil moisture estimates from SMOS using visible-to-infrared remotely sensed observations. This algorithm is applied to combine 2 years of SMOS and MODIS Terra/Aqua data over the Iberian Peninsula into fine-scale (1 km) soil moisture estimates. Disaggregated soil moisture maps are compared to 0-5 cm ground-based measurements from the REMEDHUS network. Three matching strategies are employed: 1) a comparison at 40 km spatial resolution is undertaken to ensure SMOSsensitivity is preserved in the downscaled maps; 2) the spatio-temporal correlation of downscaled maps is analyzed through comparison with point-scale observations; and 3) high-resolution maps and ground-based observations are aggregated per land-use to identify spatial patterns related with vegetation activity and soil type. Results show that the downscaling method improves the spatial representation of SMOS coarse soil moisture estimates while maintaining temporal correlation and root mean squared differences with ground-based measurements. The dynamic range of in situ soil moisture measurements is reproduced in the high-resolution maps, including stations with different mean soil wetness conditions. Downscaled maps capture the soil moisture dynamics of general land uses, with the exception of irrigated crops. This evaluation study supports the use of this downscaling approach to enhance the spatial resolution of SMOS observations over semi-arid regions such as the Iberian Peninsula. 2014-12-19T17:30:38Z

Britt Hayes
Britt Hayes is a writer, movie lover, and sensible sweater enthusiast living in Austin, Texas. She watches too much TV and never eats her vegetables. Her mom is worried about her.
It's here. It's finally here. The first trailer for Marvel's 'Ant-Man' arrived during tonight's two-hour 'Agent Carter' premiere. If for some strange reason you didn't tune in to see Peggy Carter's television debut (what's your excuse?), the trailer has arrived online for your viewing pleasure. Following Marvel's clever tiny teaser marketing, you'll be pleased to watch Paul Rudd's heroics in this regular-sized trailer.
For years now, Paul Reubens has teased that an all-new 'Pee-wee' movie is in the works, but it was only over the course of the last year that the project finally became more of a reality. With Judd Apatow's involvement and an official script locked in, Reubens revealed that production on the film is set to begin in 2015. But don't count on seeing Pee-wee back on the big screen—he's heading to Netflix.
Following today's release of a message sent from the mysterious group responsible for the massive Sony hack, the company has now informed theater owners that they can opt out of screening 'The Interview' if they are concerned about the terrorist threat. Although the Department of Homeland Security responded by saying they could find "no credible info" on planned attacks, Sony has decided to place the decision to screen the film in the hands of theater executives.
It's that time of the year, when pop culture websites and critics publish their annual Best Of lists and we heap praise on the best and most beloved movies and TV shows of the year. But what about the average moviegoer and TV-viewer? That's where Facebook comes in. The social media site has released their top 10 movies and top 10 TV shows of the year, based on the most discussed titled of 2014. While some are fairly obvious, the lists might surprise you and inspire you to contemplate the overlap between what's popular and what's actually good.
We've been hearing lots of rumors and reports about the cast of the 'Suicide Squad' movie over the last couple of months, with Will Smith, Margot Robbie, Tom Hardy, Jared Leto, and more names circling DC's super-villain project. Much of what's been reported has often been delivered with a question mark, but today brings official confirmation of the full lineup of David Ayer's 'Suicide Squad'—and some of the final casting choices might surprise you, given that they aren't exactly what we'd heard previously.
When actors transform for a role, we take notice (and most of the time, so does that little golden statue named Oscar). Christian Bale in 'The Machinist,' Matthew McConaughey in 'Dallas Buyers Club,' Charlize Theron in 'Monster,' Christian Bale in the 'Dark Knight' trilogy, etc. Jake Gyllenhaal recently joined the club when he dropped 25 pounds to play the sociopathic Lou Bloom in 'Nightcrawler,' and now he's at it again with his incredible transformation for his next film, Antoine Fuqua's 'Southpaw.'
Hey, remember that Tinker Bell sketch from 'SNL' a while back, when Aidy Bryant played a bawdy version of the beloved Disney fairy? If only we could have a film version of that. Well, prepare for the next best thing. Melissa McCarthy is set to star in a live-action Tinker Bell film from 'Night at the Museum' director Shawn Levy and 'Neighbors' writer Nicholas Stoller. Magical!
So this is why we don't see Johnny Depp on stage very often (ever?) at awards shows. Last night at the Hollywood Film Awards, Depp introduced the documentary 'Supermensch,' about legendary talent manager Shep Gordon, and immediately made it pretty clear that he was not sober-minded. "That's the weirdest microphone I've ever seen in my life," he slurs—except, you know, it's just a regular microphone.
In what is probably the best rumor of the week already, WB has apparently got their collective studio eyes on Michelle MacLaren to direct their upcoming 'Wonder Woman' movie. MacLaren is best known for her work on television, where she's directed some of the most riveting episodes of 'Breaking Bad' and 'Game of Thrones,' so she knows a thing or two about action and what makes for a compelling, complex character.
First there was Chibatman, the Batman impersonator who rides around Japan on a replica of the Batpod from 'The Dark Knight.' Now there's Australian Batman Zac Mihajlovic, who rides around in a customized Batmobile built to replicate the one from Tim Burton's 1989 'Batman' film -- but this isn't just any Batmobile replica or any Batman impersonator. This vehicle is perfectly street-legal, and this Batman uses his persona to spread cheer to sick kids.
A few weeks back, we heard that Ryan Gosling went in to meet about a possible role in WB's 'Suicide Squad' film, but it wasn't clear which role that might have been, as details about which characters might be featured in the movie are still a mystery. According to the latest report, Jared Leto is now up for that role -- and that role could very well be The Joker, Batman's longtime nemesis.
The first full trailer for 'Minions' has arrived, highlighting the little yellow, gibberish-speaking sidekicks from 'Despicable Me,' who are getting their very own prequel/origin story. Set 42 years B.G. (Before Gru), the lovable little yellow goofballs are on a quest to find their next master after a series of mishaps throughout the years has left them without a leader.

Tilted Recliner
We waited a couple of months for this recliner to be delivered. Once out of the box, we noticed that the base appeared uneven. After calling the manufacturer, with no results we completed assembly. It's pretty. It's comfortable until you try to get out of the chair. There is no handkes to release the footrest. You have to make it to the standing position and more than gently use your foot to shove it into place. If someone sits in it and happens to recline, you can see a part underneath is 2" off of the floor compared to the same part on the opposite side of the chair. Very disappointed in what $*** got us..Read More
This is better in person

Very Nice - great shipping experince.
Nice comfortable seat. Looks great. Wish it had wood feet - that's my fault for not noticing though. A little hard to close. Not sure if the spring is tight from being new. The shipping was great. They set it up and took the box. Overall great purchase - very happy.Read More
Love the Italian Leather recliner
I love the chiar. It has good back and neck support. The only thing I have trouble with is that I have to use my legs to get the foot rest back in place. The good part is, my leges are getting stronger.Read More

The leather recliner is exactly what we wanted! The craftmanship is of a high level and the leather is beautiful. We will gladly recommend this chair to our friends.Read More
LOOKS NICE, BUT THE FOOTREST IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO PUT DOWN, YOU REALLY NEED TO PUT SOME MUSCLE INTO IT TO GET IT TO GO DOWN. ALSO THE STABILITY OF THE CHAIR IS QUESTIONABLE, I LEANED OVER THE SIDE TO PICK SOMETHING UP AND FELT THE CHAIR TIP. ALSO WHEN TRYING TO GET THE FOOTREST TO GO DOWN, THE CHAIR ALMOST TIPPED FORWARD.Read More
It has been about six weeks since the recliner was delivered. The first week it was a little difficult to push the bottom back down after being in the reclining position. It loosened up and is much easier now. The Italian top grain leather is beautiful and soft. Living in Las Vegas, it is not uncommon to sweat while sitting on leather furniture, but that isn't true with this recliner. It reclines nearly parallel to the floor. The delivery was professional. They not only delivered the recliner, unpacked it an assembled it, and set it up where we wanted it placed. What a bargain for the quality!!Read More
Comfortable and stylish. Good quality. Worth the money.Read More
