Home > Press > Cameca launches new field emission electron probe microanalyzer (FE-EPMA):SXFiveFE for Quantitative Microanalysis and X-Ray Imaging at High-Spatial Resolution
CAMECA--a world leader in scientific instrumentation and metrology solutions--has unveiled the SXFiveFE, a field emission electron probe microanalyzer (FE-EPMA) that is the latest addition to the CAMECA line of high-end microanalytical instruments.
"We are very proud to introduce the SXFiveFE microanalyzer, because we believe it represents a major advancement in microanalysis technology," comments Georges Antier, CAMECA Vice President and Business Unit Manager. "Developed for a wide range of micro and nanoanalytical applications, the SXFiveFE EPMA is CAMECA's fifth generation electron probe microanalyzer and the culmination of our more than 50 years experience in EPMA technology.
"This highly sophisticated instrument combines proven technology from our SIMS and other EPMA products with the latest developments in general purpose EPMA, including the addition of a field emission source," he adds.
"The SXFiveFE brings together all of the best features of CAMECA's earlier electron probe microanalyzers and incorporates a number of other features, including the unique combination of a field emission electron column and CAMECA's industry-leading high-sensitivity and resolution spectrometers, that we consider a major breakthrough in microanalysis," notes Mr. Antier.
"These features along with reliability improvements from our automated EPMA for the semiconductor industry, a novel field emission source and a redesigned electron column result in a highly versatile microanalyzer with unique capabilities for quantitative microanalysis and X-Ray imaging at the highest possible spatial resolution," he concludes.
The instrument is suitable for a diverse range of applications from geochronology, mineralogy and nuclear forensics to materials, thin films and semiconductor research.
Since introducing its first commercial EPMA to the market in 1958, CAMECA has brought continuous improvements to the technology. Hundreds of CAMECA EPMA instruments are installed at major corporations as well as in renowned universities and public research institutes across the world.
The newly delivered EPMA platform is available in two configurations: SXFive with W and LaB6 sources and SXFiveFE with FE source. CAMECA has optimized the performance of both instruments for challenging microanalytical applications at sub-micron spatial resolution, extending EPMA capabilities to smaller analyzed volumes. Equipped with high-precision spectrometers for greatest reproducibility, the instrument delivers highest quality minor and trace element analysis. In addition, it offers full automation for long-term unattended analysis.
About CAMECA
CAMECA has more than 50 years of experience in the design, manufacture and servicing of scientific instruments for material micro- and nanoanalysis. Since pioneering Electron Probe Microanalysis (EPMA) instrumentation in the 1950s, and Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS) in the 1960s, CAMECA has remained an undisputed world leader, while achieving numerous breakthrough innovations in such complementary techniques as Low-energy Electron induced X-ray Emissions Spectrometry (LEXES) and Atom Probe Tomography.
More recently CAMECA has evolved successfully from a provider of scientific instrumentation for the international research community to a provider of metrology solutions for the semiconductor industry. Headquartered near Paris, CAMECA has offices in China, Germany, India, Japan, Korea, Taiwan and the United States along with a global network of agents. Acquired in 2007 by AMETEK, Inc, a leading global manufacturer of electronic instrument and electromechanical products, CAMECA is now a unit of AMETEK's Materials Analysis Division.

City workers to get raises
City of Pewaukee - Merit raises are in the works for employees with the city, which set the rates for its nonunion employees on Dec. 3.
Springsted advisers - who work in financial and management areas for local government - began working with the City of Pewaukee about two years ago and collaborated on 2011's annual adjustments. Since then, tweaks to job descriptions have been made, new or different positions have been created and a few might have been re-evaluated.
The city worked with the advising group to develop 24 different "grades" of work that determine the pay scale. They assign those grades based on nine areas such as job skill, experience, physical working conditions, supervisory responsibilities and the like. These were determined by individual job description reviews and surveys. Seventeen other comparable communities were also examined.
"We tried to develop a performance system. Now, it's based on the individual rather than just an arbitrary raise across the board," explained Pewaukee City Administrator Tammy LaBorde.
The city clerk/treasurer, for example, will see a raise just shy of 6 percent (notably, after seven elections this year). The mayor and council members, however, will not be receiving any adjustments.
Additionally, a line item is new this year which is designated for a potential city assessor, a full-time staff position. Previously, the job had been contracted.
All employees are enrolled in the Wisconsin Retirement System (WRS), and the city will pay the employer contribution at 6.65 percent. Employees opting to participate in the shared health insurance plan will contribute 15 percent, deducted from payroll.
Those enrolled in the wellness program will contribute 10 percent.
Union employees are still in negotiations.

It is a false idea that Israel and the Arabs are still at war. Two of the four Arab states bordering Israel have already made their peace with the Jewish state. The third one, Syria, is only waiting to be given its Golan Heights back. As for the fourth one, the moment Syria sign a peace treaty with Israel, Lebanon will be free to follow suite. Israel has only one real war, the war it is fighting against the Palestinian people about the territory that will be left to them to establish their own national home. All the rest is propagada. You are asking about the face the entire neighborhood will have 10 years from now. No one can say for sure. It will all depend upon the Israeli public. But one fact is already known: In 2016, the Palestinians will start to outnumber the Israelis between the sea and the Jordan River. If until then, there is no peace between the two peoples, then Zionism will be proven to have been the biggest fraud of the last century.

Another side effect of moving home is nesting syndrome.
The new gaff is a bit of a blank canvas and feels awfully shiny and modern after having spent a couple of years in a crumbly Georgian building (waaaay fancier than it sounds). Consequently, each day I'm battling a compulsion to festoon everything with yarny gubbins. And sometimes I give in.
When I came across some forgotten cones of super-chunky jersey t-shirt yarn while unpacking, I knew they were destined to be a giant doily rug! Pinterest came up trumps and I settled on this free crochet pattern from the Crochet in Paternoster blog. I was after something really pretty and lacy to balance out the bulk of the yarn and this pattern was perfect. It was really easy to follow, despite being in US terms, because it's in step-by-step form with an image for each round.
This was my first time using jersey yarn and it was a lot easier that I thought it was going to be. I was expecting to really wrestle with it, but it's incredibly stretchy. I used a 12mm crochet hook and just shy of two cones of yarn. It's only 12 rounds, so it's not as big as I would have liked (62cms across), but I am happy with how it looks. Perhaps if I'd had more yarn I'd have adapted the pattern and made it bigger. For now our hallway is suitably spruced and I'm thinking of crocheting some yarn baskets with t-shirt yarn. Can anyone recommend a good pattern?

Depending on whom you ask, hipsters either provide salvation or ruination to dive bars. When fashionable types latch onto a particular hole-in-the-wall, they tend to bring a ton of additional drinkers wielding disposable income.
At the same time, all the attention can erode a dive's cool factor and turn it into "just another hipster bar," which tends to drive away the regular blue-collar clientele.
Hopefully, this won't ever happen with Philthy Phil's.
This 16th Street alcoholic oasis has been one of our favorite places to daydrink and has become ground zero for hipsterdom since the Craig Citizen and the rest of the Party Foul! DJ ensemble launched Ransom at the place earlier this year.
Philthy's popularity has been growing ever since, which might have been one of the many reasons why it's started hosting two new hepcat dance nights in recent weeks.
Zachary J., Benni Beatnik, Joshie, and the other residents of Electrostatic moved their Tuesday night party to the place a few weeks back, ditch Sanctum in favor of Phil's more relaxed vibe. It still has the same mix of music (electro, dubstep, fidget, nu-disco, and indie remixes) only in a far more laidback setting.

Meet cranky Gregg Popovich
May 6, 2010, 9:27 AM EDT
Two losses on the road, two games where the Spurs had chances to make a mark and instead watched the Suns do that, watched the Suns make the big plays. It has all left Gregg Popovich a little testy. Get past the cliches of the Suns in this video to get to Pops, he was pretty entertaining after last night's game.

this week in unintentionally grim-sounding recruiting headlines

|Two come to mind
1997 at the Rose bowl winning the National Championship..ELECTRIC atmosphere and the Michgian Crowd was the best Ive ever seen AND at UCLA watching Michigan score 10 points in the waning moments and watching JD Carlson kick the winning FG as time ran out..there was a HUGE Michigan crowd at that came and I screamed and yelled so much that I was hoarse for a week afterwards...
|13 hours 40 min ago
Ive been to all the Big stadiums except Rutgers and Maryland...Not including Ohio which is by far the worst ..Iowa was my worst experience..The fans were incredibly vulgar and rude including young kids who were cussing and swearing at us..I was really uncomfortable and did not feel safe...The good news was after the first half where we trailed the Iowa fans were incredibly obnoxious but in the 2nd half Michigan blew Iowa off the field and the stadium fell SILENT and I never felt better about a win than I did that day...

|I dont get to wrapped up in recruiting
everything is just too iffy to get all worked up...They either want to come to Michigan or they dont and whatev happens happens. Its all a roll of the dice anyways..5stars fizzle out get hurt drop up cant hack it or 2-3 stars sneak up and play like 5 stars ya just never know..Not worth stressing about

used to be able to hear the band on TV all the time...Now? not so much...Also Id like the band to attend more road games...seems like we are one of the few schools in the country that rarely goes out of town...

|I like Norfleet
BUT..it seemed liked he had all the potential/speed in the world but rarely broke out..he was always 1 or 2 steps from breaking big runs but somehow always tripped or got caught or SOMETHING..you could watch him and say WHAT IF...but that was the problem it was always WHAT IF....best of luck
|3 days 1 hour ago
|Well DUH!
Isnt this how it goes these days...Suspend during the off season so it LOOKS like you are doing something and cracking down on this kind of behavior and then in the dead of summer when no ones oaying attention reinstate RIGHT Before the season starts...MSU has done this alot....brandishing a gun during a road rage incident isnt some minor little boys will be boys thing. Thats a sign of a violent person...But when you have a win at all costs enviroment this is what happens....what punishment?

|And when you say "bright yellow crowd"
count me IN...visually from a TV viewer perception the bright yellow sticks out on TV...at the Final 4 in Atlanta the bright yellow popped on the screen and you can see the Maize faithful all around...the orange-yellow thing is dull and boring and nowheres near as visually "cool" as the bright yellow...and Im a old timer
ps ..and if u add all the votes that Didnt vote for orange/yellow what is it? Im sure its nowhere near 80-20...what are the Facts?

|As a Wolverine Old Timer
spanning 4 decades of following Michigan sports...all of them...I would be the type most would think be all Woliverine tradition dont you dare touch it type....mostly I am but not on this...2015 and times have changed for kids...Part of recruiting is keeping up with the times and what this generation is into...These occassional uniform switch ups are fine....gotta keep up with times...I like watching a game with a different uniform every now and then....especially at night..which by the way Im in favor of more of them....The visual of Night games at the Big House on national TV is stunning..cool...impressive...

|I come to rely on John B
whomever he ends up either way Michigan will be a national contender..some years better than others but they will always be competitive so I dont worry about any of this any longer...simply put I trust him 100%
|7 weeks 6 days ago
I am not a big fan..Norfleet is all talk no action..I mean sure hes fast BUT looking back his career has been a series of "almosts" never able to break free always getting tripped up and tackled...LOTS of potential but rarely actually delivers

|Take A Bow!
Ive watched or followed every single game this season..Been on here alot even when there were only a dozen or so posts and I said back after the Alabama sweep in T-Town that this team would be a national title contender and here we are in the Final Four semi-finals..Its still not going to be easy all the teams here are good but it looks like we are in a prime spot to face Florida in the title game...REVENGE will be sweet for those two losses, both were tough hard fought games we definitely have a good chance...Twice now in the last 3 games against prime competition weve come from 1st inning 3 run deficits to win...We are never out of a game with this offense,,,NEVER....whatever the next few days bring this ENTIRE TEAM has been a joy to follow all season long...
For me knocking off Bama and a SEC teams was the Best...Everything else now is gravy..playing with house money...One more win and we are in the national title game..
GO BLUE Keep the Pizza Baking!!!!!!

Is the Clinton/Blair relationship really the Clinton movie people want to see?
Even if you don't go with the most sensational stories, there is a certain historic Presidential campaign. Hell, tell both stories from her perspective, that should be fun. Casting, should HBO greenlight the film, has Dennis Quaid playing Bill, Julianne Moore taking on the current Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and Michael Sheen (who played Frost in the aforementioned Frost/Nixon) playing Tony Blair. This would be his third film appearance as Blair, which makes you wonder if more people think Blair looks like Sheen than Blair.
A happy 10th birthday to Mr. Squarepants
I didn't realize that the late 90s offered up so many cartoons that are still around today. A week or so ago, I mentioned that The Powerpuff Girls were celebrating a 10th birthday with a Cartoon Network special and complete DVD box set. Now comes news that a certain walking and talking sponge is celebrating a 10-year anniversary, as well.
Nickelodeon's pants-wearing sponge will be celebrating his decade of entertainment in a number of ways. If you go to the new SpongeBob.com you'll have a chance to play SpongeBob games, watch SpongeBob videos, and read the blog of Mr. SquarePants' creators. If you watch any of the networks of the MTV universe (which Nickelodeon is a part of) you'll be able to view a documentary on the character and its popularity.

Acinetobacter baumannii in intensive care unit: A novel system to study clonal relationship among the isolates
ABSTRACT The nosocomial infections surveillance system must be strongly effective especially in highly critic areas, such as Intensive Care Units (ICU). These areas are frequently an epidemiological epicentre for transmission of multi-resistant pathogens, like Acinetobacter baumannii. As an epidemic outbreak occurs it is very important to confirm or exclude the genetic relationship among the isolates in a short time. There are several molecular typing systems used with this aim. The Repetitive sequence-based PCR (REP-PCR) has been recognized as an effective method and it was recently adapted to an automated format known as the DiversiLab system.
In the present study we have evaluated the combination of a newly introduced software package for the control of hospital infection (VIGI@ct) with the DiversiLab system. In order to evaluate the reliability of the DiversiLab its results were also compared with those obtained using f-AFLP.
The combination of VIGI@ct and DiversiLab enabled an earlier identification of an A. baumannii epidemic cluster, through the confirmation of the genetic relationship among the isolates. This cluster regards 56 multi-drug-resistant A. baumannii isolates from several specimens collected from 13 different patients admitted to the ICU in a ten month period. The A. baumannii isolates were clonally related being their similarity included between 97 and 100%. The results of the DiversiLab were confirmed by f-AFLP analysis.
The early identification of the outbreak has led to the prompt application of operative procedures and precautions to avoid the spread of pathogen. To date, 6 months after the last A. baumannii isolate, no other related case has been identified.

- "Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) is an important opportunistic pathogen responsible for a nosocomial infections, such as pneumonia, urinary tract infections, bacteraemia and meningitis [1] [2] [3] . Its clinical significance is due to its rapid acquisition of a wide variety of antibiotic resistance genes so it has caused difficulties in the control [4] . "
Article: Detection of class 1 integron in Acinetobacter baumannii isolates collected from nine hospitals in Turkey[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To investigate the antibiotic resistance genes inserted into class 1 and class 2 integrons in Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) isolates obtained from nine different cities in Turkey. A collection of 281 A. baumannii clinical isolates were collected from nine diferent state hospitals in Turkey and were confirmed as A. baumannii by conventional biochemical, API testing and bla -OXA-51 specific PCR. The isolates were examined by PCR for existence of class 1 and 2 integron gene cassettes. They were characterized by antimicrobial susceptibility testing and the highest resistance rates were determined for piperacillin (90.03%), ciprofloxacin (87.54%), cefepime and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (81.13%). The lowest resistance rates was for cefotaxime (3.55%). class I integrons were detected in 6.4% (18/281) of A. baumannii strains and no class 2 integron was detected. The gene cassettes of class 1 integrons AacC1-AAC(3)I-aadA1, AacC1-aadA1, AAC(3)-I, AAC(3)-I -AAC(3)-I -aadA1, TEM-1, AAC(3)-I-aadA1 - AAC(3)-I -AAC(3)-I, AAC(3)-I -AAC(3)-I -AAC(3)-I -aadA1, AAC(3)-I - aadA1, AAC(3)-I-AAC(3)-I, AAC(3)-I-aadA1- AAC(3)-I-aadA1, AAC(3)-I- AAC(3)-I- aadA1-AAC(3)-I-aadA1 were detected in eighteen strains. The aac genes family were most frequently found integrated into the class 1 integrons and it was followed by aadA genes and TEM-1 genes. This is an extensive study on the distribution of class 1 integron among A. baumannii in Turkey. In addition to these, two new alleles were observed. Their percentage rates of similarity to other cassettes are 95% aadA1 ( TKA18) and 89% aadA1 (ANKA3).Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Biomedicine 09/2013; 3(9):743-7. DOI:10.1016/S2221-1691(13)60149-5
- "Rep- PCR libraries can therefore be easily assembled to enable, for example, the comparison of strains over time and probably across laboratories, with a view to charting the epidemiology of isolates. Outbreaks of Acinetobacter baumannii have been extensively studied using DiversiLab rep-PCR typing (Carretto et al., 2008; Fontana et al., 2008; Kohlenberg et al., 2009; Yan et al., 2010; Perez et al., 2010). Using DiversiLab, a snapshot emerged of the global epidemiology of carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii, where it was found that almost half of 492 isolates from a worldwide collection belonged to a single clonal lineage that clustered with European clone II (Higgins et al., 2010; Dijkshoorn et al., 1996). "
Article: Interlaboratory reproducibility of DiversiLab rep-PCR typing and clustering of Acinetobacter baumannii isolates[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We have investigated the reproducibility of DiversiLab rep-PCR fingerprints between two laboratories with the aim of determining if the fingerprints and clustering are laboratory-specific or portable. One-hundred non-duplicate Acinetobacter baumannii isolates were used in this study. DNA isolation and rep-PCR were each performed separately in two laboratories and rep-PCR patterns generated in laboratory A were compared with those from laboratory B. Twelve A. baumannii isolates processed in laboratory A showed ≥98 % pattern similarity with the corresponding 12 isolates tested in laboratory B and were considered identical. Sixty-four isolates showed 95-97.9 % similarity with their corresponding isolates. Twenty-three isolates showed 90-94 % similarity with the corresponding isolates, while one isolate showed only 87.4 % similarity. However, intra-laboratory clustering was conserved: isolates that clustered in laboratory A also clustered in laboratory B. While clustering was conserved and reproducible at two different laboratories, demonstrating the robustness of rep-PCR, interlaboratory comparison of individual isolate fingerprints showed more variability. This comparison allows conclusions regarding clonality to be reached independent of the laboratory where the analysis is performed.Journal of Medical Microbiology 09/2011; 61(Pt 1):137-41.

- "The data on the investigated strain are available at http://www.pubmlst.org/paeruginosa. The DiversiLab system was recently evaluated by several authors for confirming different outbreaks caused by Staphylococcus aureus, Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella spp., or P. aeruginosa (Caretto et al., 2008; Doléans- Jordheim et al., 2009; Fontana et al., 2008; Grisold et al., 2009) or to test the discriminative power of it in the case of known outbreak strains (Grisold et al., 2010; Tenover et al., 2009) in comparison with the PFGE. In most cases, DiversiLab system proved to be a rapid and reliable method for molecular analysis of suspected nosocomial outbreaks cased by methicillin-resistant S. aureus, A. baumannii, and extended-spectrum β-lactamase–producing Klebsiella spp. "
Article: Successful application of the DiversiLab repetitive-sequence-based PCR typing system for confirmation of the circulation of a multiresistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa clone in different hospital wards[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The applicability of the repetitive-sequence-based PCR (rep-PCR)-based DiversiLab system was tested compared with the pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) to type a phenotypically similar subset of a large collection of multiresistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated during a 17-month period from patients treated in different wards including 4 intensive care units (ICUs). Five environmental P. aeruginosa isolates obtained from one of the ICUs were also included. The DiversiLab system and the PFGE demonstrated the genetic relationship among the isolates with the same efficacy. One of the environmental isolates had the same rep-PCR type as the circulating clone. Multilocus sequence typing of one of the clinical isolates of the circulating clone proved that it is a member of a clonal complex of P. aeruginosa that has not been previously described in clinical samples.Diagnostic microbiology and infectious disease 03/2010; 67(2):202-6.

SCEPA joined with the Economic Policy Institute on Capitol Hill to brief congressional staff and policy experts on tax expenditures, or incentives given through the tax code without scrutiny by Congress.
SCEPA economists are working on the prospects for a more progressive economic order to emerge from the shock of the recession. They have published papers and documents that place current events in a longer-term context as well as policy proposals to deal with short-term concerns. They are also documenting the emerging discussion of how the discipline of economics is reacting to the Great Recession and the questioning of conventional economic analysis.
Lance Taylor, a SCEPA Faculty Fellow, presents an overview of his new book, Maynard's Revenge, in a Google Tech Talk.
The book, published this November by Harvard University Press, is a timely analysis of mainstream macroeconomics, posing the need for a more useful and realistic economic analysis that can provide a better understanding of the ongoing global financial and economic crisis.
The government spends $143 billion through tax breaks in an effort to expand pension coverage and security. Yet, over half of the American workforce does not have a pension. Retirement insecurity hurts business plans, workers' lives and retiree well-being. Reform is needed.
SCEPA's Guaranteeing Retirement Income Project, sponsored by the Rockefeller Foundation and in collaboration with Demos and the Economic Policy Institute, has a plan to guarantee safe and secure retirement income for all Americans.
Two Different Worlds—the Real Economy and the Debt Negotiations
- Details
by Rick McGahey, SCEPA Faculty Fellow
Friday brought the sobering news that the U.S. economy is slowing even further, teetering on the brink of a double-dip recession, with virtually no job growth in June and the unemployment rate ticking upwards to 9.2 percent. And what is the headline news from Washington? That the Obama Administration and Congressional Republicans are looking to cut more from the federal budget.
Of course, further budget cuts now will only worsen the nation's economic problems, though balanced plans to reduce the debt after the recession makes perfect sense. But the Republican Party has no balanced plan. They have been seized by a blind economic ideology that refuses any step towards raising revenues, or even rebalancing and improving the tax code. These anti-tax conservatives now dominate the political landscape—they were highly motivated in the 2010 elections while liberals and moderates were not, and that allowed them to take over the House of Representatives.
Understanding India's New Political Economy
- Details
Sanjay Reddy, Associate Professor of Economics at The New School and a SCEPA Faculty Fellow, joins co-editors Sanjay Ruparelia (The New School), John Harriss (Simon Fraser University), and Stuart Corbridge (London School of Economics and Political Science), in announcing publication of a new book, Understanding India's New Political Economy: A Great Transformation?
The book addresses the three most important large-scale transformations that have reshaped India since 1989: the advent of liberal economic reform, the ascendance of Hindu cultural nationalism, and the empowerment of historically subordinate classes through popular democratic mobilizations. Filling a gap in the literature, it describes, explains and assesses the nexus between these central transformations in a rigorous and integrated manner.
Filling a gap in existing literature, the book goes beyond looking at the transformations in isolation, managing to:
• Explain the empirical linkages between these three phenomena
• Provide an account that integrates the insights of separate disciplinary perspectives
• Explain their distinct but possibly related causes and the likely consequences of these central transformations taken together
By seeking to explain the causal relationships between these central transformations through a coordinated conversation across different disciplines, the dynamics of India's new political economy are captured. Chapters focus on the political, economic and social aspects of India in their current and historical context. The contributors use new empirical research to discuss how India's multidimensional story of economic growth, social welfare and democratic deepening is likely to develop. This is an essential text for students and researchers of India's political economy and the growth economies of Asia.
Paul Krugman and Robin Wells Review The Age of Greed
- Details
Nicole Bengiveno/The New York Times/Redux
Economists Paul Krugman and Robin Wells provide a conscientious, thorough review of Jeff Madrick's new book, Age of Greed, in The New York Review of Books. Titled, "The Busts Keep Getting Bigger: Why?" the review states:
"The Age of Greed is a fascinating and deeply disturbing tale of hypocrisy, corruption, and insatiable greed. But more than that, it's a much-needed reminder of just how we got into the mess we're in—a reminder that is greatly needed when we are still being told that greed is good.
Madrick also does an especially persuasive job of demythologizing Milton Friedman, who provided intellectual heft for the antigovernment movement. As Madrick points out, although Friedman offered some important economic insights, he often shoehorned real-life data to fit into a one-sided narrative, gaining his theories wider acceptance than was ultimately justified. And Friedman, like Reagan, preferred "overly simple assertions of free market claims," discarding the caveats."

Small earthquake recorded off west coast of Vancouver Island
Published Sunday, December 15, 2013 3:10PM EST
TOFINO, B.C. -- Vancouver Island has been shaken by a small earthquake off the west coast.
The U.S. Geological Service says a 4.7-magnitude quake struck at 9:11 am on Sunday, in the ocean about 124 kilometres northwest of Tofino.
There were no reports of any injuries, or even any immediate suggestion that anyone noticed.
The B.C. government says the province experiences an earthquake every day, but only a small number of them are noticeable and even fewer result in damage.
British Columbia is considered a high-risk zone for earthquakes, given its location on the "Ring of Fire," a 40,000-kilometre horseshoe of seismic activity in the Pacific Ocean.
One of the largest quakes in recent history in the province was a magnitude-7.7 event off the west coast of Haida Gwaii in October 2012 -- the second-largest ever recorded in Canada.
