Woodrow Wilson was President of the United States. The first World War had just ended. And she was born in the home of William Emery and Mary Eveline Self. She grew up with four brothers and sisters and a special cousin, Lola. Ersie attended Mount Zion Baptist Church almost her entire life. There was one fellow that went there named Willard (Lee). He was friends with Ersie's two brothers. One day when Willard was visiting, he was 12 years old and Ersie was nine, the Selfs were all sitting down at the breakfast. Lee patted Ersie on the head and said, "One day I'll marry this one." 17 years later at 29 years old, he did just that. They were married on December 21st, 1946. When Willard asked Grandpa Self for 26 year old Ersie's hand Grandpa Self said, "Well, I guess she is old enough to do what she wants…you are just taking my good biscuit maker away from me." In a total of 16 years, Ersie and Willard had 9 children, with 8 surviving childhood. Shirley, Peggy, Lovonda, Ronnie, infant son Randy Lee, Darlene, Randall, Reece, and Donny. On October 25, 1982, Ersie said goodbye to her husband. They had been married for 35 years and 308 days. She was a widow for over 31 years. Ersie's heart always belonged to Willard. In fact, it was one of my favorite past times to tease Granny, and everyone in here knows what a great sense of humor she had. I teased her about every widower and elderly bachelor in Vonore. Her mind was made up. Her heart belonged to two men…Willard…and Jesus. Mamaw Ersie was a blood bought child of God. Not because she once said a prayer, although she did profess Jesus as her Savior; not because she attended a church, although she had years of perfect attendance at Mt. Zion; but you knew that Ersie was saved not by these things, but because she lived a life that was pure and acceptable unto Him. I John 3:4: We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death. Was there a person that has ever met Mamaw Ersie that was not loved by Mamaw Ersie? Mamaw was also the embodiment of the fruits of the Spirit, what are these? Love. Joy. Peace. Patience. Kindness. Goodness. Faithfulness. Gentleness. Self-Control. Mamaw was a lot of fun. She never ceased to surprise you. She was 89 years old when she decided that she wanted to fly on an airplane for the first time out to Nebraska to visit the Wilkersons--my sister and her family. So, I was in charge with finding out how to get Mamaw her very first picture ID. To get a picture ID, I needed a birth certificate, Mamaw had lost hers years ago. So, we had to get her a new one. I spent at least three weeks trying to find records of her and finally we got ahold of someone in Nashville, and they looked through their computers and said we don't have anyone named Ersie Self ever having been born in Tennessee in 1920. Frustrated, mom and I went to Mamaw Ersie and said, "Mamaw, there is no record of an Ersie Self ever having been born!" She looked at us nonchalantly and said, "Well, probably because that is not my name." My mother said, "What do you mean, mama!?" She said, "I was born Ersa, not Ersie. I bet they'll find me now." Sure enough, we easily found her under that name. Mom said, "Mom. Why has your legal name always been Ersie? It is on your Social Security card and everything." Mamaw just said, "Well, when I was about 9, I just decided that I did not like the name Ersa and so I have been Ersie ever since." I get to now tease my momma that she was in her 60s before she found out her mother's name. So eventually, we got Ersie on that plane. She was always up for an adventure. Always up to go to Wal-Mart, to sit and visit with friends, to go to a Revival meeting. She never met a stranger. Mamaw Ersie lived on this Earth for 92 years, 361 days. She had 22 grandchildren and 28 great grandchildren. She has been cared for non-stop by her daughters who for the past 2 years have cared for Mamaw Ersie hand and foot. Almost all of her sons were also there daily, especially Randall, who was a valuable help to the daughters. Ronnie, Reece, and Mamaw's nephew JL would also take turns pushing Mamaw around Vonore in her wheelchair. It was one of her favorite things to do. Thank you all for sacrificing for her in this way. God is well pleased with all of you honoring her. Right when she was starting to go downhill, she pulled many of us by her bedside and told us that she believed that God had given her a dream. She said she dreamt that she died and she looked up and saw Jesus walking with Willard and a small boy—their son, Randy Lee. They looked so happy. I believe that this was God giving her a promise. Through the pain that Mamaw endured in her later months, it is not worth comparing to the glory that is being revealed unto her now. There is no doubt in my mind that our little Mamaw is pain free. Reunited with her family-- her mother, father, Lawson, Bill, Bessie, Lucy, and Lola, and of course Willard and Randy. There is also no doubt in my mind, that our little Mamaw has touched the face of her Creator, the one who made her, redeemed her, and prepared a place for her." ### This eulogy was written for Ersie Self Cooper by Ersie's grandson, Kevin Fowler. The eulogy was read by Kevin at the funeral. It was also read at the 28th annual Self Family Reunion on September 28 at Pearson Springs Park in Maryville, TN by Rev. Tommy Self, Ersie's nephew. Go to the website eye2sky.com to hear a song that was written and sung by Ersie's grandson, Micah Cooper, in honor of Ersie. Micah wrote the song the morning Ersie died and he sang it at her funeral. It is titled "Ersie's Song".Barry T. Selfhttp://email@example.com

Hair-thickening Charm - Hex-Deflection - hexes - Homenum revelio - Homorphus Charm - horn tongue - Horton-Keitch Braking Charm - hot air charm - Hover Charm - Hurling Hex
no incantation given
A spell which lengthens and thickens a person's hair.
Miles Bletchley cast a jinx on Alicia Spinnet that made her eyebrows grow to cover her eyes. Snape refused to accept that a member of the Slytherin team would do such a thing, suggesting instead that Alicia had cast a Hair-thickening Charm (evidently the spell used) on herself, presumably to make her hair look better (OP19).
A form of magic or class of spells that defend the caster against hexes.
The fake Moody included Hex-Deflection in his fourth-year Defence Against the Dark Arts classes (GF28).
The following spells are known as hexes.
Homenum revelio (HOM-eh-num reh-VEL-ee-oh)
"homoinis" L. human being + "revelo" L. to unveil, uncover
Reveals human presence in the target area.
Cast by Hermione just after she, Ron, and Harry entered number twelve, Grimmauld Place (DH9).
"homo" Gr. the same + "morph": Eng. change shape
[force a werewolf
not to change]
"homo" L. man + "morph": Eng. change shape [force werewolf into human shape]
A good charm to use against a werewolf. Its exact effects aren't given.
Lockhart supposedly used this charm to defeat the Wagga Wagga werewolf and demonstrated the feat in Defence Against the Dark Arts (CS10).
no incantation given
Transfigures the target's tongue to a bony substance resembling horn, presumably.
Harry, looking for spells to help him combat a dragon, wisely decided not to use this one as it would just give the dragon one more weapon (GF20).
no incantation given
Makes a racing broom easier to handle.
Invented and patented by Basil Horton and Randolph Keitch, the founders of the Comet Trading Company (QA9).
no incantation given, but involves a complicated wand motion
Fires off a jet of hot air from the end of the caster's wand.
Hermione used this charm to melt snow and dry off her snow-covered robes (OP21).
Dumbledore used something similar on Harry's wet robes, but the spell he cast instantaneously made the robes warm and dry and didn't involve any wasted wand motion (HBP26).
no incantation given
Makes an object float in the air.
Dobby used this spell (without wand or incantation) to float Aunt Petunia's violet pudding in the air (CS2).
Hermione had to use one on Harry to get him into his bunk while he was unconscious after their visit to Godric's Hollow (DH17).
See also LEVITATION CHARM.
no spell words given
A nasty kind of hex that can be placed on a broom. The effect is presumably to make the target broom attempt to hurl its rider off.
When Harry's Firebolt was stripped down to be checked for jinxes and curses, Flitwick checked whether it had a Hurling Hex on it. It didn't (PA12).
This may have been the spell Quirrell cast on Harry's Nimbus 2000 to try to throw him off (PS11).

Blessed are the peacemakers. Matthew 5:9
If you want God's blessing, become a peacemaker. Jesus didn't say, "Blessed are the peace-lovers," because everyone loves peace. Nor did he say, "Blessed are the peaceable," who are never disturbed by anything. No, he said, "Blessed are those who work for peace."
Peacemakers are rare because peace-making is hard work. But it's worth it. Relationships are always worth restoring.

In his 15-plus years as Mahoning County prosecutor, Paul Gains has compiled a record that is both positive and negative. But there's one aspect of Gains' tenure as the county's chief lawyer that not even his detractors can credibly challenge: His honesty.
Some readers may wonder why we think it so unusual that a member of the criminal justice system would be honest. The answer lies in the political history of the county. When judges, a prosecutor and a sheriff are convicted of taking bribes, residents are justified in putting a premium on trust when it comes to our elected officials.
In examining Gains' service in office, we came across this simple but revealing admonition from him to his staff of assistant prosecutors: Follow the law.
There's nothing in his record to indicate that he does not practice what he preaches.
We applied that principle in our evaluation of the race for the Democratic nomination in the March 6 primary. Gains is being challenged by Youngstown City Prosecutor Jay Macejko, who has been in the news lately not because of his campaign platform but because he was sued by an employee for violating the law.
Macejko has been city prosecutor since 2006, and before that was an assistant county prosecutor under Gains.
While he has attempted to make the incumbent's record the issue in the race, there are too many questions surrounding Macejko's management style that voters deserve to have answered.
Because the city prosecutor has never run for election before — he was appointed to the position by former Mayor Jay Williams — he has not been exposed to a public vetting.
However, the lawsuit filed by assistant city prosecutor Bassil Ally alleging religious discrimination has shed light on the operation of the office. Macejko, along with the city of Youngstown, former Mayor Williams and former Law Director Iris Guglicello, were sued in federal court. The documents pertaining to the case remain under seal, but the fact is that the case was settled with a judgment that resulted in Ally's being paid $110,000 and given a $4,000 raise. In addition, Macejko wrote a letter of apology to his employee.
Nonetheless, the city prosecutor insists he did not discriminate against Ally and that the settlement was negotiated with the city's insurance provider. He takes no responsibility for it.
Likewise, he has refused to take responsibility for a racist comment about President Barack Obama that was in a log of text messages retrieved from the cellphone of assistant prosecutor Bret Hartup. The messages were submitted to the court in response to a subpoena from Ally's lawyers, who asked for a record of texts between the city prosecutor and the assistant prosecutor.
Macejko denies seeing the Obama entry, insisting that he did not send it. He has speculated that it could have been "spam." His denial defies logic; he has authenticated the text log by acknowledging that he sent derogatory texts about Ally to Hartup contained in the log.
Independent investigation
In light of the information that has been made public, Gains has called on Mayor Charles Sammarone to fire the city prosecutor. We aren't willing to go that far given that most of the documents that could fill in a lot of the blanks in this sordid tale remain under seal. However, the mayor's decision to launch an independent investigation to determine if Macejko's behavior was so egregious as to damage the city's credibility means he has not bought the prosecutor's explanation.
Last Sunday, The Vindicator published a front-page in-depth story about the county prosecutor's race, detailing each candidate's strengths and weaknesses and their records as public officials.
Given the unanswered questions about Macejko's clash with Ally and his text exchanges with Hartup, we cannot consider him for our endorsement for county prosecutor.
But even if we could overcome our misgivings about him, we still would find it difficult to select him over Gains when both their records and work experience are scrutinized.
We, therefore, endorse the incumbent with this reminder to him: You are responsible for everything that goes on in your office.
Gains has said that he has been distracted in recent years by civil lawsuits against the county, including the one relating to overcrowding in the county jail. Those issues have now been resolved, so we would expect him to be involved in the day-to-day management of the office.
We have also criticized him for the pay raises he gave some of his employees, even though he kept them within his budget. We would hope that he recognizes the reality of today's economy and appreciates the anger that private-sector taxpayers feel towards public- sector employees because of their wages and benefits, including lucrative pension plans.
All things considered, The Vindicator endorses Paul Gains for the Democratic Party nomination. No Republican has filed in the race.
With this endorsement the Vindicator dances to the same old tune of party politics. We keep doing the same things, making the same mistakes and tolerating what lies within our court system yet we expect different and better results. It is no wonder that we the people have such a high level of frustration with government.
An incumbent MUST run on his record and after 15 years, Gains' record is one to question, let alone his campaign does not even address the such.
This is exactly why we have elections every few years, to judge the incumbent on what they have done. This smear type campaign that both Gains & the Vindicator has done to Macejko calls questions to be answered.
What kind of relationship does This Prosecutor have with the local paper to warrant their undying support for this many years after this many SNAFUS.
The Vindicator is wrong on this one.
Do you know how many stupid text messages that are just forwarded from phone to phone that are out there? I get dozens of stupid comments jokes and "unflatering" pictures from people that I hardly know but happen to have my cell phone number. The fact that Gains and now the Vindy is basing his campaign on this is pathetic. Anyone who has had any dealings with Jay Macejko knows that he is one of the most effective procecuters that this area has. Anyone who is against him is either someone that has a vested interest in Gains's reelection or has been on the receiving end of Jay's prosecution. As far as Sammarone not buying Jay's "story", anyone that knows Sammarone knows that he is the ultimate a## coverer and is in survival mode as he winds down his 30+ year career. He knows exactly what to say, Pending investigation? Please. Sammarone knows that Gains is in trouble. I am not the only one that places absolutely zero value on a Vindy endorcement. Weren't they just stringing Gains up on Federal Plaza just a couple of months ago for the raises he gave out. Hey what ever sells papers right?
It is quite interesting that prosecutors in Macejko's office got raises in November! Look at the Vindicator article on the endorsement. Jay is in total denial that he did anything wrong. Take time to look at the evidence in the link below then post your conclusion .
Seems Jay exhibits some of the beliefs of a famous Democract from the 60's: Bull Connor, of Birmingham, Alabama. If Jay needs a nickname, how about Jay "Bull Connor" Macejko? Has a certain flair to it. And perhaps a certain ring of truth.
"Gains pursued criminal prosecutions against people who disagreed with the purchase of Southside hospital without due diligence." It wasn't the lack of due diligence that scuttled the Oakhill prosecution, it was the Feds. Did you know that not only is the County prosecutor responsible for criminal cases, but that office also has a civil division the oversees all legal aspects of the county operation including bond issuance, liabilities, contracts, adherence Mahoning County departments to Ohio code to name a few. What are Macejko's credentials to take over that task?
I still feel newspaper should not endorse any person, place or thing. The papers job is to report the FACTS. Not just the facts they want to report. The paper should not take sides on issues. A good paper would have reporters on both sides, so the public can be FAIRLY informed.
Who really cares who the paper endorces?
The site below tells it all about Jay.

The Dallas Cowboys are debatably the most talked about NFL team in the league; and not in a good way. "America's Team" has quickly become one of the biggest enigmas in the National Football League.
Why have the Cowboys not made a playoff appearance since 2009? Why have so many head coaches taken a knee instead of hoping and praying they don't get fired like most NFL coaches? Why aren't changes happening within the franchise to improve this football team? There is only one common denominator since 1989, Jerry Jones. The solution seems like a no-brainer for outsiders; hire a GM. However to the grandiose Jones, he is omniscient and has it under control…or does he?
H.R Bright sold the Cowboys to Jones in 1989 during which Jones hired head coach Jimmy Johnson. Johnson not only led the Cowboys to, not one, but two Super Bowls, he had an eye for talent when it came to drafting players. Jerry came into this position with no experience, and for a hot minute, allowed Johnson complete control over drafting, player relations etc. Aikman anyone? That ended once Jerry realized he was holding the best team in the league in the palm of his hand; and it has been a downward spiral ever since. Johnson, who was Jones' friend and teammate at The University of Arkansas, finally got fed up and worn out in 1993; by the constant butting of heads between him and Jerry over player personnel decisions. In turn, one of the best, if not THE best, head coaches the Cowboys have ever had, threw in the towel.
Then, in comes Barry Switzer who also led the 'Boys to a Super Bowl win then resigns after only 3 seasons. Why would two incredible coaches, both with Super Bowl rings at the top of their career decide to leave? Are we seeing a pattern here?
Let's fast forward to 2003. Five seasons, no rings; something has to be done right? So Jones decides to talk Bill Parcells into coming out of retirement to become Dallas' new head coach. Parcells obliges Jerry and ONCE again only lasted 3 seasons before droppin' the mic. Wade Phillips replaces Parcells then ends up being the only head coach in Cowboys history to get fired mid season; and so begins the Garrett era.
Any NFL team owner knows, even after just two playoff-less seasons, something needs to change. People can blame this season on Monte Kiffin, the defensive coordinator who led the Cowboys to have the worst defense in the NFL, allowing a total of 6,645 yards; however the reasons for yet another year with no post-season is deeper than just the DC. Injuries took a toll on the 'Boys this year with Sean Lee being out; but Kiffin did what he could with what little he had. Romo has also taken heat for the losses but he does put up numbers and numbers don't lie. Is he elite? No; but he is a good quarterback that, with the right tools, could do great things with the Cowboys. Jason Garrett is also obviously at the center of this blame game. According to Forbes, (http://www.forbes.com/sites/rogergroves/2013/12/30/why-nfl-coaches-get-fired/) There are two reasons why coaches get fired. First, the quarterback doesn't succeed; and second, the team has not made the playoffs for two consecutive seasons. Both of which the Cowboys can check off. So what in the world is going on here?
Wouldn't someone so obsessed with power want a leg to stand on? Well, judging by the decisions, or lack thereof, by Jones; the answer is no. An egotistical man with a God complex finally has a staff he can control. Although a Super Bowl would be nice, many believe having control is more important to Mr. Jones. Yes, there are coach's contracts that are guaranteed; but there is nothing preventing Jones to hire a GM to separate player decisions and monetary decisions. It makes people wonder, does Jerry really even care about the reputation of the Cowboys or the future of this franchise? This is an ominous thought. However the most bewildering fact of the matter; the Cowboys are STILL the most expensive team in the NFL. To be a fly on the wall in Cowboys corporate board meetings…
Garrett is doing what he can with what he has; that must be tough having absolutely NO say in anything. This is why, as long as Belichick and Kraft are there, the New England Patriots will never be in the turmoil the Cowboys are right now. Kraft recognizes Belichick's talent and although they will talk over decisions, Kraft lets Belicheck do his thing because he trusts him. Jones wouldn't even let his friend of many years, who won him two Super Bowls and drafted arguably one of the best quarterbacks of all time, take the reigns.
It all circles back to drafting the right players and having a back up plan in which Jones knows nothing about. Has Jones' narcissism and constant need for control getting OUT of control. Does Jerry Jones care more about being "Jerry Jones"? The consensus within Cowboys fans is yes; with expletives more than likely to follow. Or is it the simple fact Jerry Jones can't admit he made multiple mistakes?
All in all the Cowboys will never even be a playoff contender unless Jones decides to take it down a notch and hire a GM. Regardless of player trades, coaching changes etc; if Jones is still playing GM, Cowboys fans better hurry up on jump on that Broncos bandwagon!

With apache, is it possible to filter out log requests into separate files based on the URL?
So for example:
127.0.0.1 - - [08/Apr/2013:17:06:26 +0100] "GET /this/is/a/url.html HTTP/1.1" 200 67486
Log this specific URL into access_log_first and everything else into another log file?
I did a little research and it seems I could use something like
SetEnvIf but not sure how to got about setting it up. Could anyone help out?
I realise this is somewhat a strange requirement and under normal circumstances I would run the URL I need logging on a separate subdomain for example.

Risk is an important aspect of the farming business. The uncertainties inherent in weather, yields, prices, Government policies, global markets, and other factors that impact farming can cause wide swings in farm income. Risk management involves choosing among alternatives that reduce financial effects that can result from such uncertainties.
Five general types of risk are described here: production risk, price or market risk, financial risk, institutional risk, and human or personal risk.

Category: Books, The Vampire Diaries TV
We got the publication dates for the new Vampire Diaries TV series tie-in books a couple of days ago, and now we have the synopses up for for all three books in the Stefan's Diaries series. The information comes from the UK publishers, Hodder & Stoughton, via Amazon UK. The first book (Origins) looks to be a novelization of what we know from flashbacks from season one, hopefully with some more tidbits thrown in. Books two and three (Bloodlust and The Craving) are all-new stories set in the past, and the synopses are behind a spoiler cut for those of you who'd prefer to wait to be surprised. The big question we have is whether these stories will be part of the official TV series canon or not.
Now, if we could just get some covers to ogle, we'd be happy bunnies.
EDIT: Amazon US listings are currently unavailable – hopefully Amazon will get it sorted soon.
Book One: Origins
Set during the Civil War, against a backdrop of grand estates, unimaginable riches, and deadly secrets, three teenagers in Mystic Falls, Virginia enter a torrid love triangle that will span eternity.
Brothers Stefan and Damon Salvatore are inseparable until they meet Katherine, a stunning, mysterious woman who turns their world upside down. Siblings turned rivals, the Salvatores compete for Katherine's affection, only to discover that her sumptuous silk dresses and glittering gems hide a terrible secret: Katherine is a vampire. And she is intent on turning them into vampires so they can live together—forever.
Book Two: Bloodlust
Stefan and Damon Salvatore are now vampires, and must deal with the consequences of their fate. They escape their small hometown of Mystic Falls, which is overrun with vampire hunters, and travel to New Orleans. While Stefan revels in his powers, Damon continues to mourn the loss of Katherine, the beautiful vampire that turned them both. But New Orleans offers temptations and dangers. Stefan falls in love with another human, and his willpower is tested to the limit. Damon ends up captured by an evil, sadistic vampire hunter. Stefan knows that he must save his brother, but will it cost him his new love?
Book Three: The Craving
Stefan Salvatore has come to terms with being a vampire. The events of the past few months have sobered him, and the fog of his own blood lust has begun to lift. He travels to New York City to start a new life, one that does not require him to kill humans to survive. Instead he feeds off of animals in Central Park. But the quiet life he envisioned is jolted when he runs into his brother Damon, who has convinced New York high society that he is Italian royalty. While Stefan is regaining his humanity, Damon has completely lost his. Stefan will do whatever it takes to protect Damon from himself, but there is another villain present. A vampire that seeks revenge for a death the Salvatores are responsible for. Stefan and Damon will have to work together to fight the greatest evil yet.

"Introduction to Quantum Computation and Quantum Information"
Quantum computers and the algorithms that run on them can do everything that classical digital computers can do and, in some cases, provide in addition efficient solutions to problems where no classical algorithm is presently known. Thus, quantum computers appear to provide a model for computation that challenges the mechanical Turing Machine model that held for nearly 50 years. In this overview, we will cover briefly the classical models for computation, and then introduce quantum bits, quantum logic gates, and the quantum circuit model for quantum computation. We will discuss a couple of simple algorithms to illustrate how quantum computation works. The field of quantum computation and quantum information processing is active across the world, with research proceeding at university, government, and increasingly at industrial labs. Prospects for practical quantum computers will be briefly discussed.

"How to Hold Many Universes in Your Hand (Sorta)"
We live in a world where almost all of the fundamental forces of nature are nearly hidden from us. Only the weakest force—gravity—shows itself to us directly. In most instances, these other forces nearly cancel themselves out, leaving only traces of their nature behind in our daily lives. This means that many of the interactions in the macroscopic universe we live in are the result of only tiny specks of fundamental forces, which come from these very tiny force cancellations. Because of this, small changes in how these cancellations occur can effectively lead to wildly different properties of the universe we live in. In the field of condensed matter physics, we study the interactions that exist inside the materials that surround us and how electrons behave in these systems. By finding materials where the fundamental forces between the electrons and nuclei cancel in slightly different ways, we explore wholly different universes where electrons live. In this talk, I will explain how we use these tiny details to find universes where new laws of physics emerge, where electrons and atoms can move with no friction, where different Higgs bosons or even magnetic monopoles exist, and much more—all in materials you can hold in the palm of your hand.

"Neutrinos: Ghosts of the Subatomic Universe"
Neutrinos are fundamental particles, one of the basic building blocks of the universe. Though trillions of neutrinos from our Sun passed through your thumb in the time that it took you to read the previous sentence, they remain one of the most poorly measured fundamental particles. Due to their lack of electrical charge and very tiny masses, neutrinos can travel undisturbed through enormous amount of material. This makes them very useful probes of distant phenomena, but difficult to study in the lab. In this overview, I will briefly discuss the history of neutrinos, including the long-standing the solar neutrino problem, and the challenges of detecting them. Over the past decade, we have dramatically improved our understanding of neutrinos using manmade sources, and I will describe what we have learned and still hope to discover about these elusive particles.
Professor Alysia Marino
High Energy Physics
"The Science of Musical Sound"
The science of musical sound involves music, psychology and physics. While sound waves are very well explained by physics, they can seem mysterious because we can't see them. We'll briefly review what sound waves are. We will explore some interesting questions related to musical sound: What makes a sound musical or not? What are musical notes? Why do two instruments playing the same note sound so different? Finally, we will explore wave resonance pipes and how the human voice works.

"Light Unchained: Virtual Photons Made Real"
Thermal radiation - it is so omnipresent that we rarely notice it as something special. Thermal radiation is one of the most universal processes in nature, from the cosmic microwave background left over from the big bang to the visible light from the sun or a light bulb. The investigation of thermal radiation has lead to groundbreaking discoveries throughout the history of physics, such as in thermodynamics by Gustav Kirchhoff or quantum mechanics by Max Planck. Its origin is microscopic charge motion randomly driven by heat energy. However, in addition to the resulting emitted blackbody radiation we detect at a distance from an object, there is also a confined radiation field very near the surface that does not radiate. That thermal surface-confined field, predicted to have a very high energy density and special spectral properties, has long gone unmeasured. I will discuss our quest to perform spectroscopy of this unique optical field by transforming it into detectable radiation using optical nano-antennas on a scanning probe microscope tip. I will discuss how we turned this fundamental discovery into a technique for super-resolution chemical imaging, including its commercialization. I will furthermore give a perspective how this work leads to new methods for thermal management of microelectronic devices, new forms of solar cells which turn waste heat into electricity, and new ways to test physical principles like quantum optical forces.

"Quantum Fuzziness and Quantum Certainty"
Late at night, the world can look fuzzy to tired eyes. Thankfully, a pair of reading glasses or a good night's sleep will make things clear again. However, in the quantum world there is a fundamental fuzziness that cannot be fixed with glasses or a good night's sleep. Remarkably, this fundamental quantum fuzziness is responsible for keeping the stuff you and I are made out of from collapsing, and is the key to making atomic clocks that are accurate to a few parts in a billion billion. The quantum fuzziness does eventually serve to blur our best measurements of the world around us. We will discuss both the quantum certainties and uncertainties created by quantum fuzziness, and how we use quantum entanglement to stitch together laser-cooled and levitated atoms to reduce their total quantum fuzziness.

Fayetteville, Ark. – The University of Arizona Wildcat No. 20 men's and No. 14 women's track and field teams are competing in the NCAA West Preliminaries in Fayetteville, Ark. The NCAA West Preliminaries is the first and second rounds of the NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships. Day two of the competition was wrapped up on Friday evening. Saturday is the third and final day of competition. Arkansas' John McDonnell Field is playing host to the meet. The semifinals and finals of the NCAA Championships will take place June 11-14 in Eugene, Ore. After the second day of competition, four student-athletes on the women's side and three on the men's have advanced to the finals in Eugene.
"I think we've had a really good first two days of the competition," head coach Fred Harvey said. "The objective here is to move people on and get them to Eugene and so far we're getting that done. There's only one event that was really a devastating blow to us and that was Julie (Labonté) not making it through in the women's discus. But overall, I think it's been a great two days and we're looking forward to tomorrow and getting it done."
Redshirt freshman Jordan Young advanced to Eugene for the finals of the men's hammer throw competition. His first toss of 204-6 (62.33m) was enough to cement in the top 12. However, his third throw of 205-2 (62.55m) was his best on the day and placed him in eighth overall. Five of his six attempts were about 200-0, a very consistent series for the freshman.
Senior Nick Ross cleared 7-1 (2.16m) in the men's high jump competition, tying for first place overall. That clearance was good for a spot in the final in Eugene. It is the fourth time in his career he has made the final of the event at the NCAA Championships.
"Nick Ross continues to do what he does," Harvey said. "I also think he's going to have a big day tomorrow in the triple jump. Jordan Young, he's been a kid all year long that I've had a lot of faith in him being able to throw. To have him in the finals in Eugene is big for our program."
Senior Shapri Romero punched her ticket to Eugene for the women's 400 meters. She clocked a time of 52.86, good for second place in heat one and seventh place overall. It is the first time she has made the semifinal of the event at the NCAA Championships. Romero also ran the 200-meter preliminary race and clocked a time of 23.57 (-0.8 wind). That time was good for third place in heat four and 14th overall. She will run in the quarterfinal on Saturday at 5:50 p.m. MST. On the men's side, freshman Miles Parish clocked a time of 46.79, taking sixth in heat two and 18th overall, failing to advance.
"That race felt pretty controlled," Romero said. "The goal was just to get in the top three advance. I wanted to win my heat but I didn't'. I ran the race strategically. I'm so excited, I was in tears after my freshman year, my sophomore year wasn't good and last year was another devastating year. To finally get it my senior year, I'm so excited. The only thing was find coach (Francesca) Green and hug her, I was so excited after that race. (In the 200 meters) I just wanted make to qualify for the next round, I was definitely feeling (the affects of) the 400. We were pretty lined up coming off the curve, I didn't want to wait, I just wanted to solidify it when I had the chance and I just pressed to get home. That was good, I'm ready for that tomorrow."
Sophomore Nnenya Hailey clocked a personal-best time of 56.99 in the 400-meter hurdles, good for first place in heat one and a trip to Eugene. Hailey's time is No. 3 in UA history as well. She won the heat and clocked a personal best despite stumbling after the eighth hurdle and losing her a balance a bit. She rallied, maintained her composure and finished the race strong. Sophomore Morgan Struble clocked a time of 60.01 and finished in 23rd place overall. It is the third-straight year the Wildcats have had a representative in the semifinal of the women's 400-meter hurdles at the NCAA Championships.
"I was super excited," Hailey said. "I was super nervous, whenever I start running I have one million things going through my mind but for some reason, when the gun goes off, they all go away. I'm super excited and I'm just ready to run. I finally broke 57 (seconds) and I'm just excited about that. (On Stumbling after eighth hurdle) Lead leg, trail, dominant leg, non-dominant leg, I'm still working on all of that. I probably should've taken another step but in my mind I told myself, 'no, let's just go.' I messed up there but I know when I get my steps right and I run relaxed, everything is going to fall into place and that time is going to drop dramatically."
In the men's 800 meters, freshman Collins Kibet clocked a personal-best time of 1:49.19, taking sixth place in heat one and 14th overall. The 12th-place finisher, the last man to advance, had a time of 1:49.10.
In the women's 100-meter hurdles, sophomore Traci-Lynn Hicks' time of 14.06 (-2.7 wind) was good for fifth place in heat one and 34th place overall. She did not advance to the quarterfinal. In the women's 100 meters quarterfinal, senior Germe Poston clocked a time of 11.70 (-0.1 wind) taking seventh place in heat three and 18th overall. She will not advance. Poston also ran the 200-meter sprint preliminary round and clocked a time of 24.30 (-1.1 wind), taking 30th overall. She failed to advance.
Senior Julie Labonté took 20th place in the women's discus competition, failing to advance to Eugene. She had a toss of 164-1 (50.02m) in her third round attempt. She fouled on her first two. Labonté suffered an injury during Friday's shot put competition, where she advanced to Eugene with a fourth-place finish.
In the men's 3,000-meter steeplechase, junior Kenji Bierig took 35th place overall with a time of 9:12.22, failing to advance. On the women's side, junior Clea Formaz had a time of 10:25.34 and finished in 19th place overall, she did not advance.

I need to do some explicit computation with algebraic de Rham cohomology on some projective varieties, also some open subsets of them.
I don't know the theory well, but I just search some notes to have an idea how to do the computation.
On p.15 (p.18 on PDF file) of Periods and algebraic deRham cohomology by Benjamin Friedrich, there is a long sequence
$ \cdots \rightarrow H_{dR}^{p-1} (D/k) \rightarrow H_{dR}^{p}(X, D/k) \rightarrow H_{dR}^{p} (X/k) \rightarrow H_{dR}^{p} (D/k)\rightarrow H_{dR}^{p+1}(X, D/k) \rightarrow \cdots$
, here $H_{dR}^{p+1}(X, D/k)$ is the relative algebraic de Rham cohomology.
But on pp.10-11 of Note On Algebraic de Rham Cohomology, there is
$ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ H_{dR}^{i-1} (U) \rightarrow H_{dR}^{i-2}(Y) \rightarrow H_{dR}^{i} (X/k) \rightarrow H_{dR}^{i} (U)$
which is obtained from logarithmic de Rham complex.
It seems to me that these 2 exact sequences are very different. Is the relative algebraic de Rham cohomology $H_{dR}^{p}(X, D/k)$ the same or related to $H_{dR}^{p}(U, D/k)$ if $U = X \ \backslash \ D$ ? And when one wants to do the computation for the open subvariety, which exact sequence is used?

GHW Attorney Eric O'Bell recently obtained a judgement totaling $475,000 for a client whose son died as a result of a tragic 1999 bus accident on Mother's Day, 1999. After an initial trial, and a rehearing on a new trial, Judge Rosemary Ledet awarded the mother, $475,000.00 for the survival and wrongful death claims of her adult son, who died as a result of his injuries shortly after the bus crash.

Welcome! Day 2 of 31 Days of Celebration Freebies!
So last year I created a free set of 3 types of mason jar printables (invitations) with lemons, strawberries, pinecones as filler options.
I decided to make some Halloween spooky jar fillers in case you wanted a different type of Halloween invite.
Just print side A and (depending on your printer) insert the paper printed side up and print side B so that the invite wording is one the inside, cut out the outer edge leaving a little piece connected between the jars & fold in half.
You can use some twine or black ribbon to tie around the neck of the 'jar' to hold it closed.
I also included two individual jars in the file that you can cut out and use as framed decor.
I cut mine out and placed it over some black cardstock.
I hope you enjoy this download!

Scriptless WSCompile in Metro
By pelegri on Aug 20, 2007
Scripts are very handy but they are also brittle as each user tends to have slightly different configurations. Vivek recently rediscovered this and decided to take action: the latest JAX-WS RI (part of Metro) invokes wsimport directly.
Check Vivek's writeup for details.
