hi all -
i took my 16 month old daughter to the doctor the other day and she diagnosed her with thrush. has anyone else's children had thrush before? should i be concerned at all? i know it is pretty common in newborns and infants. i just didn't realize that she can get it as a toddler. i am a totally over protective mother whose husband is a physician and is never concerned. i am sure he thinks i am a looney...but, i guess he just doesn't understand my over protectiveness.
can someone make me feel better at all???

Updated 1/20/11
Last year's healthcare reform law (the "Affordable Care Act" or "ACA") was an achievement decades in the making. Vulnerable Americans had waited far too long for a change to our system that guaranteed access to quality, affordable care. The law isn't perfect, but it will bring healthcare to over 30 million people who wouldn't have it otherwise, improve quality and efficiency of care, and lower the budget deficit as well.
HOWEVER, House Republicans were succesful last night in voting to repeal the Affordable Care Act by a vote of 245 to 189. (This was a largely symbolic act since Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said there would not be be a repeal vote in the Senate.)
Republicans said that the ACA raises the deficit – this is not true. In fact, the Congressional Budget Office reported that that repealing the ACA will raise the deficit [1] by $230 billion over ten years. They have also called the ACA a "job-killing" bill – this is not true. Experts have shown that the bill will have little effect on employment [2]. Repeal would mean shutting out the millions of people who couldn't afford care without the new law. It will mean undoing reforms intended to hold insurance companies accountable.
The repeal vote is a perfect opportunity for healthcare advocates to speak out in support of the Affordable Care Act and the important protections it affords. All of our lawmakers need to hear that we want them to protect the reforms of last year.
Here are some of the protections, benefits, and improvements to our healthcare system that would be lost if the Affordable Care Act were repealed:
- Free preventative care: All new plans have to provide certain procedures like mammograms or colonoscopies without charging a co-pay, deductible or coinsurance.
- No more lifetime limits: Insurance companies are prohibited from imposing lifetime dollar limits on essential services, like hospital stays.
- No denying coverage to children: Children under the age of 19 cannot be denied coverage because of a pre-existing condition.
- Strengthening Medicare: Starting now, seniors will pay less for prescription drugs, and the "donut hole" will be closed entirely by 2020. Other provisions encourage improved care through innovation and efficiency in Medicare.
- Lowering premiums: The new law requires that 85% of premium dollars (80% for plans sold to small employers and

Signs Of Tire Problems 101
Uploading ....
A common auto problem which arises due to negligence stems from your tires. It will be difficult for you to continue driving if you encounter something like a flat tire, a lose tire, etc. It is common for us to have tire problems, but there are always some things which we can accomplish to get out of those situations. But still, it is still important that we get to know the common warning signs of car tire problems so as to be able to remedy the situation immediately. Read on to know more how to determine the warning sign of your tires.
So make sure you take care of your car with our
Mission Valley auto repair
. The services we can do include our
Mission Valley smog check
. And if you feel you might have brake issues see us for our
Mission Valley brakes
A common indicator that your tires have a problem is when there is a humming noise which emanates from your tires. This noise basically means that your tires have not yet been rotated. To solve this, you have to stop driving the car and take time to rotate your rear tires.
One other indication of tire problems is when your steering wheels vibrates too much. Anyone can actually feel the vibration but most people do not know what does this mean. Strong vibration on the steering column indicates that there is some sort of damage on any of your wheels. What you can do before driving out is to make sure that you check all the wheels and see that they are balanced. Otherwise, you need to take your vehicle into the shop for a repair.
Another problem you may encounter with your tires can be attributed to the imbalanced alignment on your steering wheel. When cases like this happens, the best thing you can do is to contact your mechanic for a quick repair. What he needs to do is to adjust the alignment of the steering wheel with the tires. He also needs to determine if any other part of the wheel has been subjected to damage.
Now these indicators are there so as to tell you that you have to be able to resolve it in the quickest time possible to avoid accidents. So it is imperative that you get in touch with your mechanic immediately. For other tire concerns, there are enough instructions which came with the manufacturers list for your tires.
So those are but some of the indicators you have to watch out for tire problems. Don't forget the indicators, as well as the things you can do to resolve the problem quickly.

West Dumbartonshire Council avoids ICO fine despite losing sensitive data

A hacker group believed to have links to the notorious Syrian Electronic Army (SEA) is mounting a wave of cyber attacks using the BlackWorm remote access trojan (RAT).
FireEye threat researchers Kyle Wilhoit and Thoufique Haq reported uncovering the cyber campaign in a blog post warning the group, codenamed The Syrian Malware Team (SMT), is hitting a number of targets with a developed version of the public attack tool.
"The Syrian Electronic Army has made news for its recent attacks on major communications websites, Forbes, and an alleged attack on Centcom. While these attacks garnered public attention, the activities of another group - The Syrian Malware Team - have gone largely unnoticed," read the post.
"The group's activities prompted us to take a closer look. We discovered this group using a .NET-based RAT called BlackWorm to infiltrate their targets."
BlackWorm is a common tool originally co-authored by Naser Al Mutairi from Kuwait, better known by his online moniker "njq8". The RAT's builder is available on many cyber black markets and development forums and has been used to create a variety of different BlackWorm variants and attack tools.
The SMT primarily uses an altered version of the BlackWorm RAT, codenamed the Dark Edition (v2.1). The FireEye researchers said the Dark Edition is more dangerous than the original RAT.
"BlackWorm v2.1 has the same abilities as the original version and additional functionality, including bypassing User Account Control (UAC), disabling host firewalls and spreading over network shares," read the post.
"Unlike its predecessor, it also allows for granular control of the features available within the RAT. These additional controls allow the RAT user to enable and disable features as needed."
It is currently unknown how long the SMT's campaign has been running or who specifically is being targeted, but the FireEye researchers said the group has been operating since at least 2011.
BlackWorm is one of many attack tools to receive technical upgrades over the past year.
Researchers from Trend Micro reported finding a variant of the Bifrose malware that leverages the Tor network to hide its communications has been caught targeting an unnamed device manufacturer on 29 August.

I have a static home page with a blog page defined under "Settings >> Reading." I notice there is no option to hide the post on the blog page. I tried the option that would hide it on the "Front" page, but that didn't work.
Is there a way to have specific posts hidden on the blog page, wherever it is?

OK, I'm not sure if this is even pregancy related, but the last few days (today is the worst), i have this pain in my upper belly/sternum - basically where my bra straps are under my boobs! It's right in the middle tho. At first I thought it was from my under wire bra, so I changed bras to a wire free one, but now it's hurting even worse. Is that even pregnancy related? Are body parts "moving up" in preperation for the baby. I'm 13.5 weeks. Any insight is GREATLY appreciated.
upper belly/sternum pain
My life changed forever on August 2nd, 2010
I had a severe pain in that area after having my LO and they were super concerned about my gallbladder - which I guess is not so uncommon in pregnancy or right after delivering. You may want to make your OB aware and see what they think.
If it's right in the middle, it may be from heartburn, I had pain there too a few times.

I get the same exact feeling all the time...it kinda feels like my upper ab muscles are being stretched out to the max. My best guess is its all of our insides moving around and adjusting...gotta make space for baby
nn�?�Baby D A R I A N�'s Mommy�?�nn
Yeah I've been getting something like that too. I was thinking maybe heartburn? but it wasn't really acid like or anything, just kind of a pain. A lot of strange things happen during pregnancy. I've never had something like that and am healthy so I'm not stressing about it. If you're healthy and having a good pregnancy I wouldn't worry.. however, if you're ever really unsure about something always call your dr thats what they are there for

Baby #2 due 8/22/2012!
I've had that exact pain there and thought it could be everything stretching. I had it with DD2, too. But, I've found that if I take a few tums, it goes away, so it must be heartburn! Try it!
Married to the love of my life since 9/9/00
I'm bringing this up again because I just found it. I have been having this for weeks. Mostly at night when I lay on my sides, it's like my ribs smash together and hurt. Now it happens a little all day - really light dull pain. I even stopped wearing a bra at night... but no help. It's definately not heartburn since I can push on it and feel where it's hurting.
Gallbladder I had mine removed 8 months after having my daughter. One good thing is I don't have to worry about constipation really anymore LOL ( Iknow TMI)
I am a Mother, Student , Wife and a WAHM as a web designer.
DD 5 years old ( Brianna)
I'm inclined to think it's your gallbladder as well.. it could be any of the above mentioned things, though!
Women are much more likely to develop GB problems during pregnancy (or a few months afterwards) than women who aren't pregnant or postpartum. I started getting random Gall Bladder attacks after my 2nd daughter was born, and I didn't know what they were. It just felt like a slight pain/burning sensation right under my sternum. It slowly got worse until I was in excruciating pain at 6 weeks pregnant with my son.. had no health insurance.. and I was desperate enough to have a $20,000 surgery out of my own pocket to get rid of the pain. Ouch!! (Ok so technically I haven't paid it off yet. lol)
I'm having this problem as well. My pain is located right at the bottom of my sternum and I swear that I feel a bump in there. It hurts a lot especially when I press on that area. I have no idea what it could be or what from. I can say that it's not my gallbladder because mine was taken out a few years ago (and yes, constipation is a thing of the past!). Could it maybe be scar tissue from the gallbladder surgery? I have my next OB appointment next week so I plan on having my OB take a look at it. I just hope that it's nothing serious and that she's able to give me a simple answer. I never had anything like this with my previous pregnancies.

Broncos coach John Fox said Wednesday following a 2-hour practice that he is not a stats guy. But it only takes a calculator to determine that Sunday's opponent, the New England Patriots, have averaged 22 points for the first three quarters, while the Broncos' average is 9.
"(The Patriots) are a very potent offense," Fox said. "They're a very good football team, that's why they're 10-3. They've got world championships. They're well-coached. They have outstanding personnel. There's no doubt it will be a big test. I'd say that's a concern."
"We've been involved with some comebacks, and they've all been in the fourth quarter," Fox added. "It's not like we're trying to play that way. A lot of these games (in the NFL) are determined in the fourth quarter. We're trying to score every time we have the ball."
When asked about the Broncos' failure to get out of the gates quickly, wide receiver Eric Decker said it all starts with execution.
"We want to go down and score a touchdown or get a field goal and take pressure off our defense because they have been amazing," Decker said. "Field position is a big part of football."
Winning streak even a surprise to Broncos
Decker was asked Wednesday if, back in September, he could have dreamed that the Broncos would be riding a six-game win streak and sit atop the AFC West with an 8-5 record.
"I'll be honest. No," Decker said. "Being 1-4, I knew we had a good team, I knew we had enough talent. If you have the mentality and the right mindset, it's about getting the right break and finding the right guys on the field. Coach Fox has done a good job of getting the guys to buy in and believe in one another. The camaraderie in the locker room is the highest it's ever been."
How important?
Fox wouldn't bite when asked Wednesday if this will be the most important Broncos game to date.
Blog: First-and-Orange
The Denver Post's NFL reporters post analysis, notes and more on this blog dedicated to the Denver Broncos.
"They all count the same, wins or losses," he said. "There's no double-ups. They're all the same."
Patriot defensive woes
The fact that New England ranks last among the NFL's 32 teams in total defense (yielding 308.7 yards per game) is evidently of no concern to Fox.
"We don't spend a lot of time in stats," Fox said. "You look at results, and they're 10-3 as a football team. They've done a great job with takeaways (plus-9 in giveaways-takeaways). They're a very formidable opponent."
Injuries update
Safety David Bruton (Achilles), cornerback Andre Goodman (concussion) and safety Brian Dawkins (neck) did not participate in practice. Wide receiver Eddie Royal (concussion) participated on a limited basis. Full participation: Fullback Spencer Larson (hamstring) and linebacker Von Miller (thumb).

5 images of Rukka Apollo

Leather glove - Top touch sensitivity for perfect control with Gore-Tex X-Trafit technology - Fully water- and windproof and breathable - Palm and knuckle protection made of carbon - Shield wiper on left thumb - Reflectors in fingers
5 user reviews of Rukka Apollo See all
Held Race-Tex gloves would be hugely better quality and spec.
Posted: 22/03/2014 at 21:08
Hmm. Despite what you think, the Apollos are not racing gloves: they are just very good summer gloves for general purpose use, so the heads are not a great comparison. A closer match from Held would be the "Touring Star", but that one is not waterproof, nor has XTrafit etc. and so unsurprisingly is cheaper.

Hey all,
So I am beginning to do some testing into automatic signaling/operations in L-Gauge, and wanted to make sure im not re-inventing the wheel.
On youtube; http://www.youtube.com/user/mirekEnd uses Signals, but they appear to be human controlled.
on Eurobricks; http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?s=92814fa42f4e24da7bf09da9af3687f5&showtopic=45358 uses a great system to make operational rail lines, but requires human-controlled locomotives.
I am hoping to develop a way for a working layout to be run autonomously, while still being able to add in human interaction.
And when you read this Jeremy, could you please delete the other six? Thank you.

Observation of bound-free transitions of the linear complex in and above the spectral region122(2005); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1885001View Description Hide Description
Laser-induced fluorescence and action spectroscopy experiments were performed to identify the origin of the continuum signals observed in and above the spectral region. We have verified that these signals arise from transitions of the linear complex. The data provides no evidence that the excited state complexes undergo a one-atom caging mechanism when prepared above the dissociation limit, . Instead, our results indicate that the continuum signals result from bound-free transitions of the linear complex to the inner repulsive walls of numerous intermolecular potentials.

Mode correlation of product pairs in the reaction122(2005); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1885466View Description Hide Description
The hydrogen abstraction reaction from methane by a hydroxyl radical produces two polyatomic molecules. Each product has several vibrational modes that characterize distinct, concerted motions of the constituent atoms of the molecule. This communication describes the first measurement that maps out the coincident information on how the mode of excitation of one product varies with that of the other co-product. Such information on mode correlation of product pairs is particularly appealing in that it provides intuitively a glimpse of the reaction paths by which the chemical transformation occurs.

How to choose one-dimensional basis functions so that a very efficient multidimensional basis may be extracted from a direct product of the one-dimensional functions: Energy levels of coupled systems with as many as 16 coordinates122(2005); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1863935View Description Hide Description
In this paper we propose a scheme for choosing basis functions for quantum dynamics calculations. Direct product bases are frequently used. The number of direct product functions required to converge a spectrum, compute a rate constant, etc., is so large that direct product calculations are impossible for molecules or reacting systems with more than four atoms. It is common to extract a smaller working basis from a huge direct product basis by removing some of the product functions. We advocate a build and prune strategy of this type. The one-dimensional (1D) functions from which we build the direct product basis are chosen to satisfy two conditions: (1) they nearly diagonalize the full Hamiltonian matrix; (2) they minimize off-diagonal matrix elements that couple basis functions with diagonal elements close to those of the energy levels we wish to compute. By imposing these conditions we increase the number of product functions that can be removed from the multidimensional basis without degrading the accuracy of computed energy levels. Two basic types of 1D basis functions are in common use: eigenfunctions of 1D Hamiltonians and discrete variable representation (DVR) functions. Both have advantages and disadvantages. The 1D functions we propose are intermediate between the 1D eigenfunction functions and the DVR functions. If the coupling is very weak, they are very nearly 1D eigenfunction functions. As the strength of the coupling is increased they resemble more closely DVR functions. We assess the usefulness of our basis by applying it to model 6D, 8D, and 16D Hamiltonians with various coupling strengths. We find approximately linear scaling.
Linear scaling computation of the Fock matrix. VII. Periodic density functional theory at the point122(2005); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1853374View Description Hide Description
Linear scaling quantum chemical methods for density functional theory are extended to the condensed phase at the point. For the two-electron Coulomb matrix, this is achieved with a tree-code algorithm for fast Coulomb summation [M. Challacombe and E. Schwegler, J. Chem. Phys.106, 5526 (1997)], together with multipole representation of the crystal field [M. Challacombe, C. White, and M. Head-Gordon, J. Chem. Phys.107, 10131 (1997)]. A periodic version of the hierarchical cubature algorithm [M. Challacombe, J. Chem. Phys.113, 10037 (2000)], which builds a telescoping adaptive grid for numerical integration of the exchange-correlation matrix, is shown to be efficient when the problem is posed as integration over the unit cell. Commonalities between the Coulomb and exchange-correlation algorithms are discussed, with an emphasis on achieving linear scaling through the use of modern data structures. With these developments, convergence of the -point supercell approximation to the -space integration limit is demonstrated for MgO and NaCl. Linear scaling construction of the Fockian and control of error is demonstrated for diamond up to 512 atoms.
Vibronic energies and spectra of molecular dimers122(2005); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1861883View Description Hide Description
We consider three distinct methods of calculating the vibronic levels and absorption spectra of molecular dimers coupled by dipole-dipole interactions. The first method is direct diagonalization of the vibronic Hamiltonian in a basis of monomer eigenstates. The second method is to use creation and annihilation operators leading in harmonic approximation to the Jaynes–Cummings Hamiltonian. The adiabatic approximation to this problem provides insight into spectral behavior in the weak and strong coupling limits. The third method, which serves as a check on the accuracy of the previous methods, is a numerically exact solution of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation. Using these methods, dimer spectra are calculated for three separate dye molecules and show good agreement with measured spectra.
Charge transfer driven by electron correlation: A non-Dyson propagator approach122(2005); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1869473View Description Hide Description
A hole charge created in a molecular system, for instance, by ionization, can migrate through the system solely driven by electron correlation. This charge transfer due to electron correlation is referred to as charge migration. We introduce in this work a new ab initio method analyzing charge migration due to electron correlation in molecules. This method, a third-order "non-Dyson" propagator approach, aims in the long run, in particular, at the calculation of charge migration in relatively large molecules such as oligopeptides. First results of the new non-Dyson method are compared with a previously used propagator approach.
Comparison of low-order multireference many-body perturbation theories122(2005); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1863912View Description Hide Description
Tests have been made to benchmark and assess the relative accuracies of low-order multireference perturbation theories as compared to coupled cluster (CC) and full configuration interaction (FCI) methods. Test calculations include the ground and some excited states of the Be, , and systems. Comparisons with FCI and CC calculations show that in most cases the effective valence shell Hamiltonian method is more accurate than other low-order multireference perturbation theories, although none of the perturbative methods is as accurate as the CC approximations. We also briefly discuss some of the basic differences among the multireference perturbation theories considered in this work.
Truncation of the correlation consistent basis sets: Extension to third-row (Ga–Kr) molecules122(2005); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1867412View Description Hide Description
The systematic reduction of the commonly used correlation consistent basis sets [cc- where , T(3), Q(4), and 5] as a means to reduce computational cost has been extended to hydrogen-containing third-row (Ga–Kr) molecules of the G2 test suite. Coupled cluster with singles, doubles, and quasiperturbative triple excitations [CCSD(T)] calculations were performed using both the full correlation consistent basis sets and a series of truncated basis sets in order to assess the impact of basis set reduction upon the structures and energies of the species. The impact that truncation of the basis sets for hydrogen has upon extrapolation of energies to the complete basis set limit also has been examined, and the cost savings that can be achieved are discussed. Overall, basis set reduction can be accomplished which preserves the systematic convergence behavior of the full correlation consistent basis sets.
Generalized density functional theory for degenerate states122(2005); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1871933View Description Hide Description
An extension of density functional theory is proposed for degenerate states. There are suitably selected basic variables beyond the subspace density. Generalized Kohn–Sham equations are derived. A direct method is proposed to ensure the fixed value of ensemble quantities. Then the Kohn–Sham equations are similar to the conventional Kohn–Sham equations. But the Kohn–Sham potential is different for different ensembles. A simple local expression is proposed for the correlation energy.
Relations between coordinate and potential scaling in the high-density limit122(2005); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1872832View Description Hide Description
Exact relations are derived between scaling to the high-density limit of density functional theory and taking to infinity for nondegenerate atoms. Görling–Levy perturbation results are deduced for hydrogenic densities. The kinetic contribution to the correlation energy is also studied, and estimates given for its value for neutral atoms. Popular approximate functionals are tested against these benchmarks.
Assigning signs to the electronic nonadiabatic coupling terms: The {,O} system as a case study122(2005); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1867438View Description Hide Description
This paper is devoted to a specific difficulty related to the electronic nonadiabatic coupling terms (NACT), namely, how to determine correctly their signs. It is well known that correct NACTs, including their signs, are crucial for any numerical treatment of the nuclear Schrödinger equation [see, i.e., A. Kuppermaan and R. Abrol, Adv. Chem. Phys.124, 283 (2003)]. In most cases the derivation of the correct sign of the nonadiabatic coupling matrix (NACM) is done employing various continuity procedures. However, there are cases where these procedures do not suffice and for these cases we suggest to apply an additional procedure based on a mathematical lemma which asserts that the exponentiated line integral which yields the matrix is invariant with respect to the initial point of the integration [M. Baer, J. Phys. Chem. A104, 3181 (2000)]. In the numerical study we apply this lemma to determine the signs of the NACM elements for the three excited states of the {,O} system (some of these NACTs are presented here for the first time). It turns out that the ab initio treatment yields results from which one can form eight different NACMs. However the application of this lemma (which does not require any significant additional numerical effort) reduces this number to two. The final selection is done by an enhanced numerical study which requires more accurate calculations.
Using non-Gaussian density functional fits to improve relative free energy calculations122(2005); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1877252View Description Hide Description
The accurate and reliable computation of relative free energy differences remains an important long-term goal. Major stumbling blocks for achieving this goal reflect the difficulty of sampling in a known fashion along the reaction coordinate and of maximally combining information that has been collected from the simulation along the reaction coordinate. In this paper we examine the utility of a probability density functional type fit to the distribution of work events collected during a nonequilibrium sample along the reaction coordinate. This approach can readily be generalized to equilibrium sampling and has the potential to estimate the quality of a relative free energy estimate as data are being collected. The method may have the greatest utility for nonequilibrium sampling where non-Gaussian work distributions are generally present that are strongly dominated by rare event sampling in the tail region. We believe that the approach can be used to augment the design and the error analysis of relative free energy computations thus improving the ability to reliably and with known accuracy compute a relative free energy.

Ionization potentials of large sodium doped ammonia clusters122(2005); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1863934View Description Hide Description
In a continuous neat supersonic expansion ammonia clusters are generated and doped with sodium atoms in a pickup cell. Thus clusters of the form are produced that are photoionized by a tunable dye laser system. The ions are mass analyzed in a reflectron time-of-flight mass spectrometer, and the wavelength dependent ion signals serve for the determination of the ionization potentials (IP) of the different clusters in the size range . Aside from a plateau for and smaller steps at , 35, and 59 on the average a continuous decrease of the IP with cluster size is observed. The IPs in this size range are linear with and extrapolate to . The slope is consistent with a dielectric continuum model of the solvated electron and the dielectric constant of the solid. The extrapolated IPs are compared with results obtained for negative ammonia cluster ions and metallic solutions in liquid ammonia. Differences are explained by the presence of counterions and their various distances from the solvated electron.

By fixing the bond angle at 124.5°, an effective molecular structure can be derived as and . A comparison of the molecular structure of various halogen-substituted methyl radicals with respect to the planarity of these radicals is discussed.

High-level ab initio calculations for the four low-lying families of minima of. II. Spectroscopic signatures of the dodecahedron, fused cubes, face-sharing pentagonal prisms, and edge-sharing pentagonal prisms hydrogen bonding networks122(2005); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1864892View Description Hide Description
We report the first harmonic vibrational spectra for each of the lowest lying isomers within the four major families of minima of , namely, the dodecahedron, fused cubes, face-sharing pentagonal prisms, and edge-sharing pentagonal prisms. These were obtained at the second-order Møller–Plesset perturbation level of theory (MP2) with the augmented correlation consistent basis set of double zeta quality (aug-cc-pVDZ) at the corresponding minimum energy geometries. The computed infrared (IR) spectra are the first ones obtained from first principles for these clusters. They were found to contain spectral features, which can be directly mapped onto the distinctive spectroscopic signatures of their constituent tetramer, pentamer, and octamer fragments. The dodecahedron spectra show the richest structure in the OH stretching region and are associated with the most redshifted OH vibrations with respect to the monomer. The lowest lying edge-sharing pentagonal prism isomer displays intense IR active vibrations that are redshifted by with respect to the water monomer. Furthermore the most redshifted, IR-active OH stretching vibrations for all four networks correspond to hydrogen bonded OH groups, which exhibit the following two common characteristics: (i) they belong to fragments which have a "free" OH stretch and (ii) they act as donors to a neighboring water molecule along a "dimerlike" (strong) hydrogen bond. The zero-point energy corrected MP2/CBS (complete basis set) limit binding energies for the four isomers are −163.1 kcal/mol (edge-sharing pentagonal prism), −160.1 kcal/mol (face-sharing pentagonal prism), −157.5 kcal/mol (fused cubes), and −148.1 kcal/mol (dodecahedron).
Coherent third-order spectroscopic probes of molecular chirality122(2005); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1869495View Description Hide Description
The third-order optical response of a system of coupled localized anharmonic vibrations is studied using a Green's function solution of the nonlinear exciton equations for bosonized excitons, which are treated as interacting quasiparticles. The explicit calculation of two-exciton states is avoided and the scattering of quasiparticles provides the mechanism of optical nonlinearities. To first-order in the optical wave vector we find several rotationally invariant tensor components for isotropic ensembles which are induced by chirality. The nonlocal nonlinear susceptibilitytensor is calculated for infinitely large periodic structures in momentum space, where the problem size reduces to the exciton interaction radius. Applications are made to and helical infinite peptides.

For and 8, disconnectivity graphs are also reported and are compared to results for the equivalent neutral water clusters as described by the rigid TIP3P potential. For the larger clusters, , the structural properties of the low energy minima are compared with recently published spectroscopic data on these systems. The observed differences between the and systems are qualitatively reproduced by the model potential, but the similarities between the and systems are not.

The newly adjusted energy-consistent nine-valence-electron pseudopotentials for K to Fr are used to calculate spectroscopic properties for the neutral and positively charged alkali dimers using coupled cluster and density functional theory. For the neutral dimers the static dipole polarizability was calculated. The coupled cluster results are all in excellent agreement with experimental values. The density functionals used can give quite different spectroscopic properties especially for the dipole polarizability, with the Perdew–Wang PW91 functional performing best.

An end address is determined by applying a stored parameter, related to the parameter type, to a pre-recorded or transmitted algorithm. The end address is transmitted, through a second network, to a server which transmits a first personalized file associated with the end address and bearing personalized data items displayed with the common data items in the device.
|Personalised Support Such as an Identity Card Comprising Anti-Falsification Means - The invention concerns a support having a surface provided with personalizing data, wherein it includes anti-counterfeit measures, arranged on at least part of the surface. The anti-counterfeit measures are being configured to be modified in appearance under the effect of an additional personalization of the surface part and appear as defects visible at the surface of the card.
|Inductive Coupling Exchange in a Portable Intelligent Object With Central and Peripheral Circuits - A portable intelligent object has first and second communication interfaces with a station. The first communication interface can send and/or receive data by means of inductive coupling with the station. The object also has an integrated peripheral circuit. All of the data exchanged between the peripheral circuit and the central circuit passes through the station.
|Downloading of Data in Portable Communicating Objects Present in a Radio Communication Network During a Campaign - A system downloads data made available in a campaign server to portable communicating objects across a radiocommunications network during a data downloading campaign. A campaign manager in the campaign server transmits campaign rules to a presence server connected to the radiocommunications network. A presence manager notifies the campaign server that an event relating to the presence of at least one communicating object in the radiocommunications network satisfies a campaign rule, in order to initiate a downloading of data from a campaign server to the available communicating object.
|Reuse of Identity Data from a User Equipment Identity Module by a Peripheral Device - The invention relates to the reuse of identity data from an identity module in a user equipment by a peripheral device. In order to enable the reuse of identity data from an identity module, such as a SIM or UICC card, in a user equipment by a peripheral device, the identifier of the peripheral device is transmitted to the module upon establishment of communication and authentication between the module and the peripheral device. Subsequently, identity data are transmitted, preferably selectively, by the identity module to the peripheral device when the transmitted identifier is recognized as one of the identifiers of the peripheral devices that were previously stored in the identity module. The identity data are reused by the peripheral device in order to establish a communication with the home network of the user equipment or with a local wireless network.
|RADIOTELEPHONE TERMINAL WITH CHIP CARD PROVIDED WITH BROWSER - This invention improves the intelligence of chip cards (SIM) in mobile radiotelephone terminals, so that a subscriber may, through the terminal, easily access databases (DB), attached to a server of services (SV). It facilitates the dialog between a subscriber who owns a mobile radiotelephone terminal and a server of services through the medium of an exchange of request and response messages. The card comprises a browser (NV) which interacts with the server and which can be triggered by selection in the mobile terminal or remotely by the server. The card and the server exchange short messages. Libraries of supplementary functions (BI), stored in the card, can be triggered by the server through the browser. The invention also relates to communications between the card that is equipped with the browser and the server.
|System for Allocating a Chip Card to a Network Operator - A chip card needs to be allocated in a secured manner to a network operator via a personalization center in order to determine a final authentication key which is attributed to a subscriber of the operator without its being transmitted via a network. The following is loaded into a card by a module: an algorithm and an allocation key; an algorithm for determination of the authentication key and at least one intermediate authentication key. A module transmits an allocation message which includes a final identity number, a random number and an allocation signature from the center to the card. The card authenticates the message by means of the allocation algorithm as a function of the allocation key and the allocation signature, and determines the final authentication key as a function of the intermediate key and the random number.
|Controlling Access to Broadcast Services in a Terminal Device - Services are distributed via a distribution network to terminal devices. One of the services is an electronic service guide stored in the terminal devices and providing descriptive data on the distributed services. To control access to the services distributed to a terminal device, the device includes a module for filtering descriptive data on the distributed services in accordance with at least one filtering criterion, and a graphics module for displaying the filtered descriptive data that meets the filtering criterion so as to enable services associated with the displayed filtered descriptive data to be selected.
|Method of Manufacturing a Substrate for a Mini-Uicc Smart Card with an Associated Plug-In Uicc Adapter, and a Resulting Substrate - A method of producing a smart card having a reduced format in relation to a second standard format and an adapter with the second format, which is associated with the smart card. A card body has a zone for the extraction of the smart card and a zone for the extraction of the adapter. At least the smart card is extracted from the support. The smart card is extracted from a zone located outside the peripheral outline of the adapter extraction zone. The invention also relates to the support thus obtained.
|Method for Dynamically Authenticating Programmes with an Electronic Portable Object - A method for dynamically authenticating an executable program, that is the continuation of the instructions defined thereby, is performed repeatedly during the very execution of the program. The method for making secure an electronic portable object through execution of a program supplied by another insecure electronic object uses, inter alia, a secret key protocol.
|Activating the Unlocking of a Mobile Terminal - The invention concerns a method for activating unlocking of a mobile terminal (TM) to be connected to a radio communication network (RR) and co-operating with a smart card (CP), wherein an unlocking activating indicator stored in a first state in the card is periodically read by an application of the terminal to maintain the terminal locked if the indicator is in the first state. A server (SO) transmits an updating message including a state-changing command to the card via the terminal after a predetermined usage time interval so that an application in the card shifts the unlocking activating indicator into a second state. If the unlocking activating indicator is read in the second state by the terminal application, the latter commands the unlocking of the mobile terminal. The interaction between the terminal as well as providing sufficient revenue to the operator who has sold the terminal
|Communication Set Up Between Wireless Devices - The invention relates to a slave wireless device (Picc) comprising:
|Adjusting Resonance Frequency by Adjusting Distributed Inter-Turn Capacity - The invention concerns a method for adjusting frequency tuning of a resonant circuit with turns having a regular spacing generating stray inter-turn capacity. The adjusting of the frequency tuning of the resonant circuit is performed, at the level of the stray inter-turn capacity, by varying the regular spacing of adjacent turns on at least one zone of the antenna. The invention uses this adjusting method for producing an adjusted antenna for a resonant circuit, the resonant circuit and a non-contact product. The invention concerns a device programmed for antenna production and/or definition.

Component/s: None
When a job does not provide any file splits (because there is no data present), the job successes but then it is lost by the job tracker. Is this normal ?
- All
- Comments
- Work Log
- History
- Activity
- Transitions
After a long investigation, i finally found why these kind of jobs where retired by the jobtracker. This is because in this case, job finished time is never setted.
So here is a patch to correct this problem.
It could be great if my patch is correct to integrate it in the next 0.9.0 release if possible.
If my patch is correct and commited (I have tested it), I think that
HADOOP-648 issue can also be resolved in the same time as this one because in fact, it is the same issue.
The previous patch is not really good. In fact, the finished time must be setted before the JobStatus in order not to be retire by the job tracker.
Here is new and valid patch.
Has somenone looked to this patch ?
I think it is quiet important to fix this issue since some NPEs are regularly thrown by the JobInProgress class.
This patch has been tested on the 0.9.0 version and works perfectly.
Thanks for attention.
Can someone have a look at this one-liner? Thanks
When a patch is ready to be looked at you need to push the "submit patch" button to make it's state "patch available." We use the the patch available state to find the patches to look at. This looks like a good change assuming it still applies to head.
Sorry. Didn't know about this practice. Will take care of that next time.
Thanks for your attention.
Patch available
+1, because http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12346228/HADOOP-649.patch applied and successfully tested against trunk revision r506778.
This looks good to me. It would be best to have a unit test, to make sure that it really fixes the issue and that we don't break it again in the future. Thomas, are you willing to write one?
Also, please don't include the bug number in the patch itself. We don't want the code to get cluttered with comments documenting its history: we leave history to subversion.
> It would be best to have a unit test
Probably this can be done by simply adding a new test or slightly modifying an existing unit test, rather than constructing an entirely new test for this bug.
I will add a unit test and remove my comment from the previous patch.
Here is the new patch including the unit test.
+1, because http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12351118/HADOOP-649-0.11.2.patch applied and successfully tested against trunk revision r507276.
I just committed this. Thanks, Thomas!

This review is from: Creative Inspire T3300 2.1 Speaker System
Pros: I can't find a pro..
Cons: See below..
Other Thoughts: I decided it was time to replace my Creative T3000 system after 7 years of use, they were quite beat up. I purchased these T3300's, expecting same-class performance, but NO, these are not even close to the T3000, which were the same retail price 7 years ago. I am no audiophile, but these sound downright lousy and I can't live with them. I could tell within a few seconds that these were going back. I have a hard time understanding all of these good reviews! I tried them through a Creative X-Fi Titanium and onboard Realtek ALC892, bad and bad. The build quality is also poor, very light, cheap plastic, very disposable. The shiny surface on one speakers came scuffed. Creative seems to be slipping. These speakers would make more sense at the $20 price point. If you are wanting quality sound at a budget, get some decent headphones. Headphones will always have better frequency ranges than computer speaker systems. If you spend the same amount on a quality set of headphones you will be blown away. If you want good desktop/entertainment system speakers, avoid these and spend more..READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: EVGA SuperClocked 012-P3-1572-AR GeForce GTX 570 (Fermi) 1280MB 320-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
Pros: Great card (as you can see from my previous review)
Cons: Must install software of it will overheat (see other thoughts) Not a con, just something that is easy to overlook. I see people complaining about high fermi temps all over the internet, but I do not think most people realize that you need fan profiles..
Other Thoughts: MAKE SURE THAT YOU INSTALL EVGA PRECISION!! (or any fan controller) The fan will just stay at one speed and the card overheat if you do not. I typically just avoid all manufacturer drivers/programs and just install the NVIDIA drivers. In this case, that was a bad idea. I was getting high temps around 85C while gaming. I then relized that my fan was not adjusting. I installed EVGA Precision, and now the fan throttles properly. Temps now rarely go over 70C.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: MSI Z68A-GD55 (B3) LGA 1155 Intel Z68 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS
Pros: Appears to be a quality board and has been stable for several days of stress testing. Overclocked my 2500k to a modest 4.2ghz, with plenty of room to go. 8-phase power and high quality transistors are favorable.
Cons: I am docking this one egg for poor driver support. When trying to manually download the drivers from the MSI site, there is one cryptically labeled zip with no OS description. When I try to run setup, it says "does not support your version of Windows". I am running Windows7-64. At least they could tell you what it DOES work on. MSI Live update is VERY junky software. I tried to get the drivers, but it was impossibly slow and encountered many errors. I gave up and had to use some of the drivers off of the disk..
My BIOS temperatures are not correct. I used Real Temp and Coretemp, and their temps agreed with each other. The bios is about 10+ degrees warmer.
Other Thoughts: OC Genie seems pretty gimmicky and worthless, but I used it anyway. It simply sets the sandy bridge multiplier to a predetermined 42 (4.2ghz), it is not smart in any way. I could have set the multiplier in two clicks, but I just hit the OC Genie button instead.READ FULL REVIEW

Is it too much to drive from Kinsale, around the Ring of Kerry and get to Dingle for the night?
Is it too much to drive from Kinsale, around the Ring of Kerry and get to Dingle for the night?
If you're talking about Kinsale, Tralee, across the top and to the west, and back as far as Dingle - - it's five or six hours of road time. Stops are extra. Not going all the way to the western tip will cut about two hours, maybe a bit less.
Ed, I should have been clearer. I was thinking of leaving Kinsale in the morning, driving around the "Ring of Kerry" and than driving up to Dingle for the night.
If you want to go totally by coast road (N71 to Kenmare, then N70 around the Ring, and N86 to Dingle), Via Michelin shows it at 5 hr 36 min. Adding 25% to get a more realistic time estimate, that makes it about 7 hours without stops. Add in photo ops, lunch, getting a little turned around, etc. It would be a long driving day, but doable if you are traveling in a season when it doesn't get dark very early.
Thanks have decided to spend the night in Kenmare, allowing us to drive N-71 to Beara Peninsula and end the day at Kenmare. Leaving Ring of Kerry for the next day.
Good decision and good scoop by Nancy. Let me fess up that my first master's was in geography and I was picturing the Dingle Peninsula, not the Ring of Kerry. When we did Kerry, it was a circle from Killarney and we spent the whole day with a very early start and a very, very late supper.

in response to NoegddgeonThere's no sound card in the computer. The notebooks use a DSP chip on the motherboard. If you blew the chip then the only fix is to replace the motherboard. If the DSP chip is OK but the speakers were blown, then you could replace them. Go to ifixit.com to see about getting the parts and a disassembly tutorial.
Noegddgeon Jan 23, 2010 4:22 PM
in response to KappyKappy,
In that case, I'm not sure whether it's the motherboard's chip or the speakers. How can I tell if it's just the speakers that blew out? Reason I ask is because I can't put headphones through my computer anymore; the sound just doesn't work, and I don't know much about computer hardware but I'm assuming this is an internal problem with the computer, as opposed to the speakers. However, the speakers play but they've been clearly ruined, with the sound being very quiet and distorted at best, and occasionally the speakers will make weird popping noises for no reason. Thank you for your reply, Kappy, and I look forward to hearing back from you.
Kappy Jan 23, 2010 7:26 PM
in response to NoegddgeonIt sounds like a motherboard problem, but the only way to know for sure is to take the computer in for service where they have the right test equipment.

The EARTH'S BEST brand purees

Straight outta the #OBT
ASPIN - I totally agree. I looked at the baby food jars and was greatful that it is super simple to cook my own baby food! I know exactly what she's eating and don't have to wonder about the conditions or additives that might be hiding in her food. I roast or boil the fruit or veggie and then use my immersion blender to puree. One butternut squash made a ton, so I froze most of it. My freezer is stock full of pureed green beans, apples, pears and squash.

I would skip them, just cook your own food for the baby. It takes less time and money to make baby food than to go out and buy it. Like PPs said, clean the veggie boil/roast/steam whatever you choose and then blend/puree (if needed add some clean water, boil about 5 minutes tap water or bottle water).
Bananas super easy to make yourself. Mash or puree.
Pear or Avocado or Apple - clean cut puree (may need a little water)
Blueberries - clean, add a little water puree. Frozen berries, boil a little and puree.
Other veggies, boil/roast/steam add some water and puree.
Combine a couple veggies together with meat and there you have baby food next step.
Make food portions and freeze for a few days worth of food. I usually make one meal a day fresh with fruit we normally eat.
