THOMAS A. EDISON, OF LLEl/VELLYN PARK, NE\V JERSEY Q REVERSIBLE GALVANIC BATTERY.
SEEGIEIGATIGN ion 21mg part of Letters Patent N 0. 684,204, dated October 8, 1901. Application filed October 31, 1900. Serial No. 34,995. (No model.)
To (LZZ whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, THOMAS A. EDIsoN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Llewellyn Park, in the countyof Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Reversible Galvanic Batteries,(Case No. 1,049,) of which the following is a description.
My invention relates to improvements in IO reversible galvanic cells or so-called storage batteries, and the invention relates particularly to batteries of the type employing zinc as an active material in an alkaline solution.
I have found from experiment that zinc is deposited in spongy form on dilferent metals from an alkaline solution largely because of the local electric action between the zinc and such metal, with the consequent formation of free hydrogen and zinc hydroxid, both of which determine thespongy and non-adherent character of the deposited zinc. I have also ascertained that the deposit of zinc from an alkaline solution thereof on different metals heretofore used in batteries of this type is impracticable without the employment of mercury and that only relatively small amounts of zinc can be thus electroplated on an amalgamated electrode before the latter becomes also spongy in character.
These objections have been met in practice by other experimenters with batteries of this type and have so far been insurmountable.
My present invention consists principally in the utilization of metallic magnesium as the support upon which the zinc is electrodeposited when the battery is reversed after discharging. Magnesium standing higher in the electric series of active metals than zinc cannot obviously produce any action on the type heretofore made employing zinc as the active material in an alkaline solution. With my improved battery the zinc is plated out of the solution upon the magnesium support in a dense and adherent form, and even with a large volume of current very considerable amounts of zinc can be thus deposited before the surface assumes anon-coherent character. I cannot positively explain why the magnesium is not attacked and why local action does not take place thereon, as ordinarily magnesium is much more oxidizable than zinc. I believe, however, as the result of numerous experiments that the phenomenon is satisfactorily explained by the supposition that the magnesium is coated with an extremely thin layer of oxid insoluble in the liquid and that the zinc is deposited upon the film of oxid and not upon the metal itself. If this supposition is correct, then the electric charges of the zinc ions apparently pass to the metal through this layer.
In my improved battery -I prefer to use copper oxid as the negative element, as I have explained in an application for Letters Patent (Case No. 1,048) filed on even date herewith. In said application I point out the difficulties which were met by previous experimenters in the use of copper oxid as a depolarizer, due to the presence in the solution of a blue soluble copper salt, which being reduced to the metallic state by coming in contact with the active metal, such as zinc, produced local action with the rapid deterioration of the battery, and I have explained how this objection can be overcome by converting the copper into an extremely finely divided f0rm-such, for example, as by the treatment of pure carbonate of copper byhydrogen at the lowest possible temperature that will insure perfect reduction. In my present battery, therefore, I prefer to use finely divided copper, which is first molded in form, then subjected to heat, so as to convert it into the black oxid, after which it is finally reduced to metallic copper by electrolytic action, so' that in charging it will be reoxidized by the current to the red oxid, (011 0.) The copper oxid so treated in the form of blocks or cakesof the desired size is preferably supported by perforated receptacles attached to nickel or nickel-plated plates,as I have described in my said application.
The solution employed in my improved bat tery is preferably about a twenty-per-cent.
solution of caustic soda, to which zinc hydroxid is added until it is nearly saturated. In order that my invention may be better understood,attention is directed to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, and in which Figure 1 is a plan view of one of the magnesium supports on which the zinc is plated during the charging; Fig. 2, a similar view of the plate forcarrying the negative element, and Fig. 3 a vertical section through a cell formed of four elements.
In all of the above views corresponding parts are represented by the same numerals of reference.
1 represents the magnesium supports in the form of thin plates,having numerous perforations 2 therein and with the usual lugs 3 and 4 at the bottom and top by means of which the plates may be assembled and electrically connected together. I find that by employing numerously perforated magnesium plates the zinc deposit is more adherent, while at the same time the deposit is more evenly distributed over the entire surface than if the plates are imperforate, in which latter case a very much greater deposit takes place at the edges thereof than at other points. The negative elements are formed, preferably, as I have described in my said application, of nickel or nickel-plated plates 5, carrying perforated nickel or nickel-plated pockets or receptacles 6, secured thereto, the plates being formed with lugs 7 7 and 8 8, by which they may be assembled'and electrically connected in the usual way. I prefer-,as stated, to employ copper oxid as the depolarizer for the negative element made by reducing pure carbonate of copper by hydrogen at the lowest possible temperature that will insure perfeet reduction to obtain the copper in finelydivided form, which is then molded under slight pressure in blocks of the proper shape, which blocks are then baked in a closed chamber until the copper is oxidized to the black oxid, (0110,) after which the oxid so secured is reduced electrically to the metallic copper. These blocks are then inserted in the receptacles or pockets 6 and are ready for use.
\Vhen my improved cell is in a neutral or fully-discharged condition, the copper oxid plates or blocks will be reduced to the metallic state and the zinc will "be in solution. In charging, the copper is oxidized and converted to the red oxid, (Ou O,) while the zinc is deposited electrically upon the magnesium electrodes. The charging is continued until about seventy-five per cent. of the zinc in the solution is thus deposited, whereupon the cell is ready to be discharged. In discharging obviously the reverse operations take place, the copper oxid being converted to the metallic state and the zinc going back into the solution. The voltage of my improved bat: tery is .67 volts. In discharging it will be found that a point is reached where the vol tage falls considerably, due to the approach to exhaustion of the oxygen in the copper,
and the discharge should not be permitted to take place materially beyond that point. As
shown, the positive and negative elements are properly connected and are supported in a suitable inclosing jar 9, hermetically sealed p from the air, said jar being providedwith a vent 10 for the escape of any gas generated-- therein.
Having now described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is as follows:
1. In a reversible galvanic cell, an alkaline y solution, a negative element, a positive elec-' i trode-support of metallic magnesium, and a metal in solution capable of beingelectrodeposited upon the magnesium toconstitute electrode, substantially as set j the positive forth.
2. In a reversible galvanic cell, an alkaline solution, a negative element, a flat'num'errg ously-perforated positive electrode su'pport of metallic magnesium, and ametal in solution 1 capable of being electrodeposited upon the a. magnesium to constitute/the positive elec{.
trode, substantially as set forth.
3. In a reversible galvanic cell, an alkaline, I
zincate electrolyte, amagnesium support for receiving the deposit of zinc, and a negative electrode having a suitable depolarizer, sub- 1 stantially as set forth.
4. In a reversible galvanic cell, an alkaline zincate electrolyte, a fiat ,numerously-perforated magnesium support'for receiving the 77 deposit of zinc, and a negative electrode having a suitable depolarizer,substantially asset 7 Q forth.
5. In a reversible galvanic cell, an alkaline zincate electrolyte, a magnesium support for receiving the deposit of zinc, and a negative electrode having a depolarizer composed of copper sufficiently finely divided to prevent the formation of a soluble copper salt on oxidation, substantially as set forth.
6. In a reversible galvanic cell, an alkaline zincate electrolyte, a magnesium support for receiving the deposit of zinc, nickel'receptacles immersed in said electrolyte, and cop- 1 per in said receptacles sufliciently finely divided to be oxidized by the current without. producing copper salts soluble in the solu- L tion, substantially as set forth.

The turbochargers with VTA technology will equip the MAN B&W brand type 6S46MC-C low-speed engines aboard the new tanker, Stena Progress. On the basis of earlier trials, they are expected to reduce fuel consumption by around 2-3% with parallel reductions in exhaust emissions.
"We are always interested in new energy saving technologies," noted Hans Norén, President, Concordia Maritime. "When approached by MAN Diesel about employing VTA we decided right away that this was something we wanted to participate in. It has been tested onboard our ship Stena President with very positive results and, as a consequence, we and our customer Total have decided to install VTA turbochargers onboard the Stena Progress."
Stena Progress is a 65,200 DWT shallow-draught ice class tanker of the P-MAX type under construction for Concordia Maritime at the Brodosplit shipyard in , where the main engines will also be built under license. The tanker is due for delivery in June 2009 and will be chartered toTotal for 5 years. MAN Diesel type TCA55V turbochargers – the "V" suffix denotes the inclusion of variable turbine area technology – will be used on both the six-cylinder 6S46MC-C low-speed main engines aboard the Stena Progress and other P-MAXs. MAN Diesel noted that the results of field testing aboard the Stena President were closely monitored and exceeded expectations, leading Concordia Maritime to the decision to equip the engines of other P-MAXs with VTA turbochargers.

Tavi Gevinson Knows It Isn't Easy Being A Feminist
How do you define feminism? Merriam-Webster's definition is pretty simple: "The belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities." But, in reality, it's a much more complicated concept, as the incomparable Tavi Gevinson so eloquently explains in the video she made for MAKERS: Women Who Make America, a digital platform dedicated to championing the stories of American women who are making a difference.
The style icon and founder of Rookie addresses the stigma surrounding the word feminism that causes women to disassociate themselves from it: "If you are a feminist, you're angry…or man-hating…taking up space. No one wants to be that person." Gevinson goes on to argue that young women aren't encouraged to speak up, which only compounds the problem.
Check out the video below and listen to the wise words this 17-year-old has to offer. We think it's time to start "taking up some space." And, how do you define the term? Let us know in the comments. (Makers)

I have one, I have had it since my first child too and it got worse with the second. After #3 was born I was freaking out and just sure I would need surgery. It was super uncomfortable, especially when sitting down, and I didn't want to DTD either. I felt really embarassed. It has since gotten better, so that it's back to where it was pre-3rd baby. I can live with that, although I'm worried that it will get worse again when I start running as I plan to in January.
From reading about it, it sounds like the surgery is not all that fantastic a thing. The physical therapy is what we need to do. Have you been to the Whole Woman website?

I am asking this for a friend:
How do you quit smoking if you cant do it cold turkey (gave you the shakes) and you are allergic to nicorette gum or champix tablets etc......
Any advice???

I am a smoker. I managed to give up when pregnant, but then took it up again.
I still smoke.
One of my closest and oldest friends who smoked 30 a day for 30 years went to one Alan Carr based public talk and walked out if it a non smoker. He didn't even want to stop smoking, he went because his wife begged him to.
He hasn't smoked since. That was about 5 months ago. This is the one person I've ever known who didn't seem to give a sh*t about quitting. He didn't want to.
but he went from 30 a day to being a non smoker after one talk. That is not usually him.
So knowing him I'm going to give huge kudos to the Alan Carr method.
Please tell your friend to look into it.
Posted 04 February 2013 - 07:07 AM
Electronic cigarettes? Failing that, wean yourself down slowly. If you normally smoke 30 day, on day one, have on 25 on you and no money to buy more. Day two, have 20 on you etc... Good luck!
Posted 04 February 2013 - 07:19 AM
I've used the Alan Carr method successfully (a few times, but I quit for at least 3-6 months each time, and have now not smoked in over 6 years).
His book is called 'how to quit smoking the easy way'. You continue to smoke while you read it, then when you reach the end of the book smoke your last cigarette (and it is not enjoyable at all).
My sister now smokes electronic cigarettes, and I have noticed a big improvement in her health etc.
Posted 04 February 2013 - 07:24 AM
Alan Carr's easy way to quit smoking. It smashes all the beliefs that smokers hold tight to. I am saving up to go after watching 3 extremely heavy smokers just stop, none of them even think about them anymore!
2 are my parents, 1 is a family friend, do I have been able to closely watch the results
Posted 04 February 2013 - 07:28 AM
I have quit twice before using hypnotherpy (4 years apart) and to be honest it was easy! After the first session I went home and had a beer in my normal smoking spot, didn't have anything craving to light one up amazingly!
Then about 3 years later (Start of last year) I moved back to family who smoked socially and started to pick it up again. Went back to get it knocked on the head and again, super easy!
Hypnotherpy doesn't work for everyone though!
Posted 20 February 2013 - 11:18 PM
To be honest quitting on smoking is quite hard you really need a lot of motivation and self control to achieve it.I also use to quit on smoking but it make me hard that's why i use to by electronic cigarette in Sweden at www.paulsaar.se which help me to reduce the amount of cigarette that i smoke and i also reduce the risk on smoking.

I read Allen Carr's book too. Cost less than a packet of smokes and I haven't had a cigarette in over 100 days now.
I also got an app for my phone that shows health benefits, money saved etc.

DH and I both quit successfully using the Allen Carr book. Neither of us has touched a cigarette in 9 years.

Allen Carr is my hero - haven't had a cigarette in 8 years and I LOVED to smoke, just hated what it was doing to me.
My brother quit 2 months ago after one visit to a hypnotist-guy (his words), brother smoked heavily for 40 years and only went to hypnotist-guy because workmates were going and work paid for it.
Posted 21 February 2013 - 09:02 AM
A friend of DH's family quit smoking by weaning herself off them virtually 1 cigarette at a time.
She smoked 1 less cigarette a day each week. It took her 5 years, but she had been a chain smoker for over 40 years by that stage.

Ex smoker here. Champix didn't work for me - I smoked more in an effort to make myself like the taste of them again. Yes I was that addicted sadly. I'm allergic to patches too - they make my skin blister and itch and I get a shocking migraine.
I tried hypnotherapy - walked out and lit up. Tried inhalers and got a headache and it wasn't the real deal so I threw it out. Tried cold turkey and was successful for 2 years until my life went to hell and it was the only thing keeping me semi sane.
What did work and continues to work was reading Alan Carrs book. When I feel the urge to buy a pack I read through a few pages and remember why I don't smoke. Brilliant book!
Posted 21 February 2013 - 01:21 PM
I went cold turkey and rode through the pain lol! I tried three times over about a year, tried patches but they were useless..I had a smoke one day and nearly vomited. That about did it for me, been 16 years now.
Posted 21 February 2013 - 01:33 PM
I smoke, I tried to give up using Champix. It was the worst time I have ever had. I had mood swings something shocking. I also had intense chest pains. I saw my doctor as soon as it started & she said to stop them straight away. I tried again cold turkey I lasted 3 months then something extremely stressful happened & I started up again. I am going to try the Alan Carr books because I am facing 2 lots of major surgery this year & I really am sick of smoking.

My partner quit with Allen Carr as well. His book is awesome. So tragic that he died of lung cancer in the end after saving so many other lives.
Posted 21 February 2013 - 02:19 PM
Easily, it's a conscious decision to either smoke or not.
I smoked for 24 years, my mum had a lung removed from lung cancer last year and I watched her go through all the emotional turmoil. it broke my heart to watch my mums world fall apart and not be able to fix it.
All i could think about was my daughter watching me go through the same thing, and I just couldnt put her through that.
That was last August, haven't smoked since.
No I just need to lose the weight
Posted 21 February 2013 - 02:40 PM
I tried a few times cold turkey, and in the end it did work, but it took me more than one go. The first time I did it on a whim, and stuck with it for a month but once I had a few drinks BOOM over.
The time I quit for good (4 years woo!) was again cold turkey, but I had a bad cold too which helped a great deal i think getting through the first few weeks (I am not suggesting you go around licking bus seats for viruses lol) Each time I was more persistent than the time before, and I think the mental preparedness strengthens each time.

You wouldn't believe how many family members I have seen die of lung cancer. Aunty, uncle, grandmother on my side, two cousins on dh's side. Plus a friend..my dh died of cancer but not the same sort.

I am a smoker. I managed to give up when pregnant, but then took it up again.
I still smoke.
One of my closest and oldest friends who smoked 30 a day for 30 years went to one Alan Carr based public talk and walked out if it a non smoker. He didn't even want to stop smoking, he went because his wife begged him to.
He hasn't smoked since. That was about 5 months ago. This is the one person I've ever known who didn't seem to give a sh*t about quitting. He didn't want to.
but he went from 30 a day to being a non smoker after one talk. That is not usually him.
So knowing him I'm going to give huge kudos to the Alan Carr method.
Please tell your friend to look into it.
Yes, this is what helped my DH quit....I didn't know he had passed away, very sad...

The food in the riad was the best we tasted anywhere in Marrakech, so much so that we ate in the riad four nights out of seven. The staff were courteous, very helpful and best of all, they were happy! Special mention must be made of Tewfiq and Samira who made our stay so special. You really do have to experience a stay at Riad Adriana to appreciate how good it is.

DYER and HAMMOND, Ind., April 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Franciscan St. Margaret Health's Dyer and Hammond campuses recently expanded use of capnography for respiratory monitoring outside their operating rooms, joining a growing group of healthcare leaders in embracing state-of-the-art patient safety technology.
Capnography measures how effectively patients are breathing and can alert medical caregivers when life-threatening respiratory depression occurs. By measuring the amount of carbon dioxide the patient is exhaling, capnography serves as the earliest indication of evolving respiratory compromise, which can lead to significant morbidity or even cardiopulmonary arrest if undetected.
Long used in operating rooms to monitor patients under general anesthesia, hospitals committed to patient safety are now deploying capnography to monitor the quality of patients' breathing in other care areas where respiratory depression may occur. Early indication of respiratory depression with capnography enables medical staff to intervene before serious adverse events happen.
The Joint Commission, the nation's leading hospital accreditation organization; the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) and the Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP) have all recommended monitoring exhaled carbon dioxide with capnography to detect respiratory depression.
Franciscan St. Margaret Health is among the nation's leaders in the early implementation of capnography monitoring outside of the operating room.
"Franciscan St. Margaret Health has embraced a culture of patient safety providing its patients with excellent care using superior technology to enhance patient outcomes. The use of capnography outside the operating room is latest investment FSMH has made to that commitment," St. Margaret Health President Thomas Gryzbek said, adding, "Not only is top technology applied, but the patient care given is provided by a dedicated physician and hospital staff whose mission is to treat the entire patient, addressing clinical, spiritual and emotional needs in a compassionate manner. We are very proud and excited to be providing this latest advancement in technology."
Franciscan St.Margaret Health chose capnography equipment from Covidien, a leading global provider of healthcare products and recognized innovator in patient monitoring and respiratory care devices.
"We commend Franciscan St. Margaret Health's campuses for joining hospitals across the nation committed to patient safety through the use of capnography," said Matt Anderson, Vice President and General Manager, Respiratory & Monitoring Solutions, Covidien. "And we appreciate its choice of Covidien's capnography technology as an excellent choice for monitoring patients."

Maryland Democratic Candidate Slams His Opponent's Military Service: "This Is A Real Job"
"This is a real job."
Gansler's made controversial comments before. Last year, he said Brown's campaign slogan was based on his race.
"I mean, right now his campaign slogan is, 'Vote for me, I want to be the first African American governor of Maryland,' " Gansler (D) told the group. "That's a laudable goal, but you need a second sentence: 'Because here's what I've done, and here's why I've done it.' "
Gansler clarified his comments to BuzzFeed:
"I want to clarify comments I made in the middle of a forum today about Maryland's failed rollout of the Affordable Care Act and Lt. Governor Brown's leadership. I have the utmost respect for his military service and for veterans. The point I was trying to make is that Anthony Brown's only attempt to lead as Lieutenant Governor was the unmitigated debacle of the health exchange website that denied Marylanders access to health care and cost taxpayers nearly $200 million."

ISL will revolutionise Indian football: Team owners
Mumbai: Team owners of Indian Super League on Sunday said that the high-profile football tournament would herald the beginning of a movement that will revolutionise the game in the country.
The bid winners of the eight franchises of the league, which is scheduled to be held in September-November, was announced here by organisers IMG-Reliance after evaluation of the bids by a seven-member panel.
Indian cricket legends Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly were among the host of high-profile winning bidders, which also include Bollywood stars Ranbir Kapoor, Salman Khan and John Abraham, for the league that is set to take Indian football by storm.
Prasad Potluri of PVP Ventures, which bagged the Kochi team along with Tendulkar, said his franchise will work to tap talent in Kerala.
"We look forward to developing the Kochi club in the Indian Super League and are proud to partner with one of India`s greatest sportsmen, Sachin Tendulkar, in our efforts. We will tap the potential talent as also channelize the fervor and passion for football across the country to enhance the quality and competitive level of the sport," he said in a release.
"The following and enthusiasm of football in the southern part of the country presents a fertile opportunity for us to execute our plans and leverage global expertise for the development of a world class club."
Sameer Manchanda, chairman of DEN Networks, which won the Delhi franchise, said, "Soccer runs in the blood of every Indian and is a part of our sporting DNA. We see this in the millions of loyal and passionate viewers of FIFA World Cup, the EPL and Champions League. The missing piece was a strong Indian league and ecosystem of state-of-the-art grounds and academies which the youth and soccer lovers could relate to.
"ISL is the beginning of a movement that will revolutionise Indian soccer and uncover the true potential of the sport in our county. DEN Networks is proud to be associated with IMG Reliance and Star India in making the Indian soccer dream a reality. DEN`s roots in Delhi make it the ideal home to spearhead the city`s aspirations to become the champions of Indian soccer."
Spanish top side Atletico Madrid owner Miguel Angel Gil Marin said he was "excited to have won the Kolkata Franchise of the ISL and being the first international team to be directly owning a Club in India".
"We along with our Indian Partners and IMG-Reliance aim to revolutionise football in the country
Kapil Wadhawan, the CMD of Wadhawan Group, co-owners of Pune franchise, said the ISL will provide the platform for Indian footballers to show their talent.
"It is important that we provide India`s youth access to localised sporting action. Football is the world`s most favourite game and it attracts a huge wave of interest amongst us Indians. However, we do not have a domestic forum to bring this interest alive.
"Indian Super League provides this long-awaited platform to polarise India`s football interest. This league would then offer opportunities to millions of Indian youth to bring their dreams to reality. I am personally committed to this endeavour," Wadhawan said.
Ace tennis player Leander Paes supported the ISL and said it will bring people together.
"Football is still my number one sport. I still believe that I can juggle a football with my legs or my body than I can actually hit a top spin backhand... Football to me is one of the biggest games in the world. You have one little leather ball, 12 inches in circumference that looks after the whole world.
Today you have got 3.5 million illegal immigrants in Europe who were aspiring footballers, who either got injured or didn't make it. And those guys are young strapping athletes, who went there with a dream. Football, the league I think will really kind of bring people together.
"It is like an IPL format. They have done it in cricket very successfully. In tennis they have tried to do it. But I think football is really the way to go. It looks after the whole nation," Paes said on the sidelines of Spirit of CCI The South Mumbai Inter Club Triathalon.

In the United Kingdom, medical records of a deceased person can be obtained by applying in writing to the record holder. For hospital records, this will be the records manager at the hospital at which the person died, and for GP records, it will be the deceased person's Local Area team.Know More
There are four NHS England Local Area teams; North of England, Midlands and East of England, London and South of England. When a person dies in the United Kingdom, his GP records are passed to one of these teams. These records are usually kept for 10 years before being permanently destroyed.
A person can find out which local area team to contact by asking the deceased person's GP or by checking the regional and area teams page on the NHS England website.
According to the NHS Choices website, a person can only apply to access these records under the Access to Health Records Act (1990) if he is a personal representative, an executor or someone who has a claim resulting from the death. This should include the next of kin and may extend to other relatives, but it is worth checking eligibility before applying as a person may be charged for this service.Learn more about Genealogy

- LendMe LendMe™ Learn More
Baxter Jacobs just survived the worst Sweet Sixteen in history: buried in a coffin, hunted down by assassins, and losing almost everything that mattered to her. She's ready for some normalcy, but "normal" won't play any part of this Time Bender's future.
Now that the immediate threat is over, Baxter learns just how much the English Council expects of the newest Interred. The pressure has her seriously considering her uncle's offer to take her to New York, especially since she thinks it will keep her Healer, Jack, from overusing his abilities. Knowing the New York Council's ranks are filled with beings using dark powers, however, makes her hesitate.
Before she can choose, the decision is wrenched from her. Fissures in Time result in a new battle with an old enemy. Someone she thought she'd lost reenters her life, and she'll discover a web of lies woven into the fabric of Time...lies only she can unravel. Baxter will have to use her growing abilities to try and reveal the truth, even if it forever changes the reality she knows.

Fissure is the second book of The Chronicles of the Interred. As far as second books go, I have to give Marilyn major props for making this book even better than the first. This book is such a rush. I could not stop reading this book once I started it. This book is action packed. Baxter leads us right in to a journey of self discovery into the past and the present. This is not a standalone, It would be much too confusing for someone to pick up the series with this book. You should read the first book, Interred . Once again this cover is perfect for the book. It shows her running out of a fissure, or something. There is so much jumping around in this book; 2013, 1976, 2001, alternate realities galore. Baxter starts off in this story feeling bad. She doesn't remember what happened before there is just a blank spot and then she wakes up in the hospital. She may be the cause of all the chaos which makes her want to leave. Instead of keeping her head down, she freezes her healer. This further separates her from the group. They are trying to protect her, but the group is infiltrated by people with malicious intentions for her powers anyways. Baxter finds herself face to face with a fissure and gets pulled in… Now that we know the characters this book just flows. Baxter is still discovering things about her past, things about her power, and things about the people in her world. Baxter is much different from the first book though. She is all magic, the normal in her life is gone. I loved that everyone is not just good and evil. We find that some characters are marred by shades of grey and that makes Baxter question everything. I liked that flaws are revealed. This keeps the characters honest and likeable. There is so much more in this book then in the first. The main players are time bender, absorbers, warriors and transporters. These abilities are flipped and exposed for good and evil. There are a lot of players in this book. That aspect was a bit confusing. I know why the story needed so many characters. The story could have been so much longer. I don't wish for less. I wanted more. The author wrote all the characters very well. It was just when something happens that we only get to see how a few characters are dealing. We only get snippets of conversation. I wanted more. I am giving this book 4/5 stars; because it is not a standalone and because there could be more to it. It is still a recommended read for any YA fan of fantasy.
Remember Baxter Jacobs? She's the girl whose life was turned inside out, for whom "time" had a new and frightening meaning. Baxter spent her "sweet sixteen" birthday buried in a coffin, learning to fight for her life, learning that she had the power to "bend" time, to travel through time and space through a power that she never knew existed within her. With Jack by her side, willing to die himself to heal her, Baxter has faced memory loss and is uncertain who she can and cannot trust. There is bad blood between the New York and English councils, evil lurks and it may be someone from Baxter's family behind it. People are dying, warriors are wounded and Jack is missing, her mental connection to him seems cut. Meanwhile, the veil between the non-magical and the Magical Beings has been shredded and the humans do not stand a chance against the powers of those who would end their existence. The final showdown is coming and it's Baxter who all will look to for help. Will friend become foe? Will foes become allies? In the battle of magical good vs magical evil, never has the ticking of the clock been so important. Fissure by Marilyn Almodovar is pure fantasy genius! Her imagination becomes ours as we travel with Baxter through time fissures, possibly changing history, the future and hoping that only what needs to be righted is affected. Old enemies resurface, new allies stand by her side and the threads of time are hers to command. Ms. Almodovar has created an amazing world that defies you not to believe and try to understand the possibilities of the meaning of time, of events, past and present. Is it possible to see yourself in different times, to do or undo one event? Would you take the risk? My mind was in overdrive following this fast-paced and exciting ride through time and across continents. Marilyn Almodovar has opened an entire new world of fantasy with incredible characters that will fuel your mind while taking you away from reality for one heck of a ride! Imagine the fate of the world in the hands of a group of magical teens who each old special abilities? See what I mean? Fascinating! Fresh and alive, Fissure has added its signature to this series with a flourish under the guidance of Marilyn Almodovar's pen!

Budget deficits — These are averaging $1,400,000,000,000 annually in fiscal years 2009, 2010 and 2011, with $1 trillion deficits projected annually for as far as the eye can see. We add to the deficit by $160,000,000 every 60 minutes.
College — Yes, it is too expensive, but a sharp rise in average annual and lifetime earnings eases the pain. To quote Derek Bok, "If you think education is expensive, try ignorance."
Dollar — The trade-weighted value of the U.S. dollar has declined roughly 7 percent over the past year, making U.S. exports more competitive around the globe. Despite what the gold bugs constantly preach, the dollar will not stop being the world's primary currency anytime soon.
Energy — Greater use of abundant natural gas, better access to oil and gas in Alaska and the Gulf of Mexico, and major progress in "clean burn" coal technology must be part of the equation in coming years, in addition to alternative sources.
Federal Reserve — Its key short-term interest rate has been at a historic low of 0 percent to 0.25 percent for 30 months, with no change expected anytime soon. Thirty-six of 38 national economists surveyed last week by The Associated Press (including yours truly) DO NOT want to see a third round of additional stimulus, known as QE3.
Global economy — Overall global growth is slowing as the three largest players, the U.S., China and Japan, have eased back. Inflation anxiety is more pronounced around the globe, led by higher oil and food prices.
Housing — Remember when home prices always went up, and used car prices always went down? Here's hoping U.S. home prices stabilize early next year.
Inflation — Financial markets are somewhat split as to whether inflation or deflation will be the fly in the ointment in coming years. Those fearing inflation see the Fed making some difficult monetary tightening decisions over the next 24 months.
Jobs — Solid employment gains in the private sector are the most desirable solution to economic growth, income and confidence challenges. Now, if the U.S. Congress would soon make some grown-up decisions about reducing future budget deficits … and then get out of the way.
Knowledge, and the ability to think — This is the key to individual success in an increasingly sophisticated economy. Ongoing education and training are now lifelong realities for many to be successful. Average annual earnings of a college graduate versus a high school graduate today? Seventy percent to 80 percent higher.
Limits, to government spending and to deficits — This is an important concept now hitting home across southern Europe, and sooner rather than later in the U.S. if we don't get a grip.
Manufacturing — Don't be surprised if rapidly rising global costs and more competitive U.S. costs lead to a surprising renaissance in U.S. manufacturing activity in coming years.
National debt — The gross national debt (quite descriptive actually) now exceeding $14,000,000,000,000, combined with budget deficits now exceeding $1 trillion annually, makes concrete moves toward fiscal sanity mandatory in the nation's capital.
Opportunity — Challenge breeds it.
Politics — Childish and boorish behavior on both sides of the aisle in Washington, D.C., is ridiculous, and all too typical. Is cooperation really that difficult?
