I can't seem to be able to style these excerpts in CSS.
You can use more specific CSS selectors.
.home .entry-title a { color: blue; }
will make the color of entry titles blue, but only for the posts on the posts page (homepage by default).
I wanna change the look of the featured image.
Can you provide more details on how you want the featured images to look like? Also what is the URL of your site?
2. Add this in your child theme's functions.php:
add_action( 'get_header', 'sk_set_posts_layout' ); function sk_set_posts_layout() { // if we are not on single Post pages, abort. if ( ! is_singular( 'post' ) ) { return; } // Force full width content add_filter( 'genesis_pre_get_option_site_layout', '__genesis_return_full_width_content' ); }

There is one workaround though. For the Phone field, set the label also as the Placeholder text. It should then appear inside the field on the front end.

Check out Joy's collaboration with Target for even more inspiration!
Every year, we buy rolls and rolls of wrapping paper to dazzle our loved ones with a pretty package to make them smile. Chances are you end up with an extra foot here, a few inches there, of extra wrapping paper that can't be used for anything short of preparing a thoughtful gift for an ant. But, since we know you're ecologically minded and not prone to wasting, here's a way to put those scraps to good use!
Cut the leftover paper into one-inch strips. The strips should be long enough to wrap around the length or width of your gift box, plus one additional inch so you can overlap the ends on the back when wrapping. This woven effect looks best if you use at least two different types of paper for contrast, but feel free to use more to really mix it up!
Wrap your gift in a plain paper. Start by wrapping a stripe vertically around the box. When the strip ends overlap on the back, tape the ends together, without fastening them to the box itself. You can use double-sided tape to secure the ends so that the tape doesn't show.

Use everyday items to top off a gift. The best part? A lot of these things can be used again — either to wrap another package or serve as a fun gift on their own, in addition to what's inside!

Lauren Conrad's Holiday Gift Tags
The holidays really are the most wonderful time of the year. From family traditions to festive (and cozy) fashion to some much needed vacation time, there's really nothing better than this season. And, because we're a little bit Pinterest obsessed around here, this also happens to be our favorite time of year for crafting...

Comme des Garçons is that one show every season that you await with anticipation and anxiety to see what Rei Kawakubo will come up with. And every single time, for the last 30 years she is able to create one different statement after the other, leaving me speechless. My connection with the brand comes from a very emotional place, a place that I can't describe but always evokes emotions within me.
Maybe it's the way she is relentless in reinventing herself, or the way she reinvents and forces us to understand beauty in different ways, or is the passion present in her clothes. There's something there than just pure appreciation, it's a relation.
And this time is no different, her bidimensional clothes were a confront to the way clothes are perceived nowadays, a flat image in front of the computer, images plastered there with no life. And that's not how we are supposed to see clothes. They are meant to move, to be seen from back to front, side to side, they need to be appreciated for what they bring with them, not merely a flat image.
One thing that is very clear with the video below, is the amazing construction of the pieces, almost as if they were built as one and later on fitted to the body like a glove and sewn in. The collection built in candy colors and the most known prints: cameo, flower, leopard and the house signature, blown out of proportion polka dots. But the way the most common prints are shown, is something completely out of the ordinary.
Enjoy a silent catwalk, that I think leaves us to understand a tiny bit more the concept behind such a brilliant mind.

How - they are already reducing their forecast for the year and now have this legal issue which could effect future business opportunities with Ford. I rarely hear any type of business gains of any significance or new product developments.
Are there really 425,000 Windstar vans still on the road? I hope Ford doesn't have mine listed there since I used the CASH for CLUNKER thing to trade my Windstar for a new Mazda Tribute for just about $12,000 with taxes.........I can't believe more owners didn't do that since the vans were worth less than $5K when they were throwing moving at consumers from the Whitehouse.

"You just wind us up and we go!"
Vocalist Jesse Lewis' explanation of powerpop rockers The Wind Up Toys is an apt description of the band and its music. Comprised of Lewis, guitarist Laura Robida, bassist Paul Taboada, and drummer Jess Prisco, The Wind Up Toys are a high-octane whirlwind of ceaseless energy.
With danceable beats, cool guitar riffs, and undeniably catchy melodies, The Wind Up Toys are a rock and roll dance party that never gives up. The band carries a wide range of influences that reads like a Who's Who of the music industry but manages to distill them down to create a sound that is their own.
Based out of Guilford, CT The Wind Up Toys continue to write new songs, while booking performances, and playing the occasional game of pick-up basketball.

Larry Beal of Moreno Valley Gets Laptop Stolen; Thieves Find Child Porn, Try to Blackmail Him, Says Riverside Sheriff
What's the cruddiest possible scenario for a guy with (alleged) child porn on his laptop?
Lawrence Tibbals Beal of Moreno Valley might hold the world record for worst luck-having by a suspected pedophile.
According to the Riverside County Sheriff's Department, the 63-year-old resident was arrested last Sunday for allegedly possessing massive amounts of child pornography. But the arrest was only the tail end of a series of very unfortunate events (well, fortunate for the panicked parentry of Riverside County, but unfortunate for Larry Beal):
On Sunday, July 29, 2012, an officer from the Moreno Valley Police Department responded to a residential burglary in progress and two suspects were detained. During the course of this investigation officers obtained information about a prior burglary in which computer equipment had been stolen. This computer equipment reportedly contained hundreds of videos depicting child pornography.
Two days and a couple search warrants later, Beal was behind bars under $50,000 bail.

So the burglars either told police they had stumbled across Beal's alleged porn machine, or something they did/said gave the dirty laptop away.
The exact investigative journey from Point A (burglary attempt) to Point B (raging child perv) is left purposefully mysterious by the sheriff's department, but one thing's clear: Beal got his computer stolen by the wrong bumbling thieves. From the Los Angeles Times:
Three suspects were arrested for the alleged break-in, including two juveniles.
One of the suspects allegedly admitted committing a second burglary: stealing Beal's laptop computer, authorities said. According to a statement released by the sheriff's department, the burglars were trying to extort money from Beal.
Oh, Moreno Valley. We know how mad you get when we brush you off as weird inbred hick-town -- but you have to admit, this one's rich. See also: The story of the school board member charged with attempted murder, forcible rape and pimping (or trying to pimp) four women and two underage girls. Oh, and now he's running for Moreno Valley City Council.
The sheriff says Beal was living in the 23900 block of Pine Field Drive. His neighborhood appears to be a desert version of the suburban hell in in Weeds:

GeForce GTX 650 Ti review -
Graphics card temperatures
Graphics card temperatures
So here we'll have a look at GPU temperatures. First up, IDLE (desktop) temperatures.
IDLE temperatures are always a tiny bit tricky to read out as Windows Aero could have an effect on this. Overall anything below 50 Degrees C is considered okay, anything below 40 Degrees C is very nice. We threw in some cards at random that we have recently tested in the above chart.
But what happens when we are gaming? We fire off an intense game-like application at the graphics card and measure the highest temperature of the GPU.
So with the card fully stressed we kept monitoring temperatures and noted down the GPU temperature.
- The temperature under heavy game stress for the card stabilized at roughly 57 Degrees C. We note down the hottest GPU reading, not the average.
With today's graphics cards, please make sure your PC is well ventilated at all times, this will seriously help you on the overall GPU temperatures.

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to the field of infrared (IR) photodetection. More particularly, the invention relates to semiconductor IR detectors tailored for multicolor operation.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Solid-state, IR photodetectors often include a semiconductor body that is grown to form a superlattice of some predetermined configuration. Such detectors are fabricated from a variety of techniques such as molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), metal organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) and derivatives of these two techniques, including combinations of both. Those concerned with the development of such photodetector devices have long recognized the need for improved procedures of tailoring their frequency-absorption characteristics to provide for multicolor operation.
One class of IR photodetectors has a molecular structure characterized by a series of relatively wide quantum wells separated by relatively wide potential barriers. The barriers are usually of sufficient width to prevent any significant coupling between the energy levels of adjacent wells. The location of the ground and excited subbands in these wells are primarily dependent on the width of the wells. In general, such subbands rise when the well width is made narrower and fall when the well width is made wider. Consequently, fabricators of multicolor IR photodetectors often tailor their frequency-absorption characteristics by controlling the size of the well widths. Although such devices have served the purpose, the degree of control that fabricators have in tailoring their absorption characteristics using this technique has proved to be quite limiting.
Kwong-Kit Choi, one of the coinventors of the present invention, describes a more flexible tailoring technique in his U.S. Pat. No. 5,013,918 (hereinafter referred to as the '918 patent), issued May 7, 1991. The '918 patent discloses a multicolor IR photodetector for use in a variety of applications such as fiber optics communication, IR remote control systems, and IR sensing technology. The semiconductor device of the '918 patent has an array of quantum-well pairs. Each quantum-well pair includes a thick well and a thin well separated by a thin barrier that permits strong coupling between the thick and thin wells. Within these wells, there is a ground electron state and a number of excited states with different energies. IR energy incident on the device gives rise to intersubband absorption which excites electrons from the ground state into one of the excited states. A measurable photosignal results when the photoexcited electrons tunnel out of these wells. The IR absorption characteristics of these detectors show multiple absorption peaks. The results achieved using this technique differ substantially from those achieved by simply controlling the well width.
The effects of placing a thin barrier layer in a relatively wide quantum well, as is the situation in the '918 patent, have been the subject of several other studies. The results of two of these studies are reported in the following publications: Peters et al., "New Method of Controlling the Gaps Between the Minibands of a Superlattice", Applied Physics Letters 55(11), Sep. 11, 1989, pp. 1006-1008; Trzeciakowski et al., "Tailoring the Intersubband Absorption in Quantum Wells", Applied Physics Letters 55(9), Aug. 28, 1989, pp. 891-893.
The Trzeciakowski et al. publication, which discusses in detail the use of intersubband transitions for the detection of IR, shows how the transition energy in an IR detector may be tailored by shifting the ground state in the detector quantum well while not appreciably moving its excited state. In this regard, ground-state shifting was achieved by growing a thin layer of Alx Ga1-x As in the middle of a GaAs well thereby creating a potential barrier for the electrons and for the holes. According to this publication, the thin barrier pushes the ground subband up while not appreciably effecting the excited subband because the wave function of the latter vanishes in the middle of the well while it is a maximum for the former.
Peters et al. also discuss the thin-barrier technique and shows how the barrier width and height, and the position of the barrier in the quantum well effect the positions of the ground and excited subbands. Peters et al. studied structures in which the well was also made of GaAs and the barrier was made out of the alloy Alx Ga1-x As. This study also describes how the IR absorption frequency of a quantum well behaves when the thin barrier of a particular width and height is placed in the center of the well.
Although there has been a long recognized need for IR photodetectors that can be tailored to detect multiwavelength radiation over a very wide range, no practical device for doing so has yet been devised. The present invention fulfills this need.
The general purpose of this invention is to provide an IR photodetector tailored to detect multiple wavelengths over a wide range. To achieve this, the present invention contemplates a solid-state structure having a series of quantum wells with widely different frequency-absorption characteristics. More specifically, the present invention contemplates a solid-state, IR photodetector having a plurality of quantum-well sets. The frequency-absorption characteristic for one of the wells in each set is tailored by simply adjusting the well width. The frequency-absorption characteristics of the other well in each set is tailored by adjusting the well width and by placing a thin barrier within the well.
It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide an IR photodetector that can detect multiwavelength radiation.
Another object of the invention is the provision of an IR photodetector that can be tailored during fabrication to detect a wide range of multiwavelength radiation.
The invention will be more fully appreciated from the following detailed description when the same is considered in connection with the accompanying drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a schematic representation, greatly enlarged, of the structure of an IR radiation detector in accordance with the present invention.
FIGS. 2-7 are schematic conduction band potential profiles illustrating the preferred embodiments.
Referring now to the drawings, there is shown in FIG. 1 an IR photodetector 20 having a substrate 21 that is transparent to IR radiation. Substrate 21 has a polished face 22 that functions as an input for IR radiation to be detected. Face 22, preferably oriented at forty-five degrees, is fabricated on substrate 21 that has a support surface on which a conductive contact layer 23 is deposited. Layer 23 is also transparent to IR radiation.
A semiconductor structure 24 is formed on layer 23. A second conductive contact layer 25 is deposited on the surface of structure 24. Layers 23, 25 are in contact with opposite parallel surfaces of structure 24. A voltage source 29 and a series-connected output meter 28 are connected across semiconductor structure 24 via contact layers 23, 25.
The operation of detector 20 is as follows: IR radiation that is incident on face 22 will pass through substrate 21 and contact layer 23. Semiconductor structure 24 absorbs that portion of the IR radiation having frequencies that fall within the absorption bands of structure 24. Voltage source 29 causes a current to flow through structure 24 and meter 28. The amount of current flow in this circuit depends on the total amount of IR radiation that is absorbed by structure 24. As such, meter 28, which measures current flow, provides a measure of the amount of radiation incident on detector 20 that lies within the absorption band of structure 24.
The absorption characteristics of structure 24 depends, among other things, on its quantum-well structure. FIG. 2 illustrates the conduction band potential profile for a preferred well structure for a small portion of semiconductor structure 24 with no bias voltage applied from source 29.
The potential profile of FIG. 2 shows a series of potential-well sets with each set having two potential wells of widths W1 and W2. Potential barriers B1 separate the wells. Barriers B1 are each of such a width that there is no appreciable coupling of the energy levels in adjacent wells. The widths of barriers B1 may all be equal, as shown in FIG. 2, or may be different. Well widths W1, W2 are chosen such that there are a minimum of two confined electron energy levels in each well.
The narrow wells, having width W1, have a ground energy level E1 and at least one excited energy level E2. The wide wells, having width W2, each have a thin spike barrier B2 located at its center. Semiconductor structure 24 may be formed using the conventional MBE techniques referred to in the '918 patent and the Peters et al. and Trzeciakowski et al. publications cited above. Structure 24 may be formed from the alloy Alx Gal-x As and spike barriers B2 may be formed from AlAs barriers of only a few monolayers thick.
The widths of barriers B2, which may be equal to each other or different, are small enough to permit strong coupling between the energy levels on either side thereof. Because there is a strong coupling between the energy levels on either side of barriers B2, the energy level configuration will be the same throughout each of the wide wells. As indicated above, the effect of placing thin barrier B2 in the center of the well is to move the ground energy level higher in the well. This is shown in FIG. 2 where energy level E3' represents the ground energy level for a well of width W2 without thin barrier B2, and energy level E3 represents the ground energy level for a similar well with barrier B2 present. Excited energy level E4 is located at substantially the same level with or without barrier B2. It is noted that the heights and widths of barriers B2 may be equal to each other, as shown, or may be different to produce different energy level spacings.
IR radiation of frequencies given by energy differences E2-E1 and E4-E3 are absorbed by structure 24. This absorption is manifested in the transition of electrons at energies E1 and E3 into electrons at energies E2 and E4, respectively. This intersubband transition produces significant electron populations in excited levels E2, E4, the magnitude of which will be a function of the amount of absorbed IR. When structure 24 is subjected to a bias from voltage source 29 as illustrated in FIG. 3, the excited electrons will produce a current flow through meter 28. The current flow measured by meter 28 will indicate the total IR illuminating photodetector 20 at the frequencies represented by energy differences E2-E1 and E4-E3.
Various modifications of the potential profile of FIGS. 2, 3 are contemplated and will be obvious to those skilled in the art in the light of the above teachings. Various semiconductor structures 24 may be fabricated having a variety of different well widths W1, W2. These structures 24 will usually produce significantly different frequency-absorption characteristics, many of which will provide multicolor operation over a wide range. However, it is noted that in some cases where W1 and W2 are widely different and E1, E2, E3 and E4 are widely different, the energy differences E2-E1 and E4-E3 may not be significantly different. As such, even though energy levels E1, E2, E3, E4 are all located at significantly different levels, IR may be absorbed at only one frequency or two closely spaced frequencies. One way to insure significant multicolor operation is to make the widths of the potential wells equal. This situation is illustrated in FIGS. 4, 5.
The potential profile shown in FIGS. 4-5 depicts the situation where the potential wells all have the same widths W4. FIG. 4 depicts the potential profile with zero bias and FIG. 5 depicts the situation with a forward bias. The potential wells are separated by wide barriers B4. Alternate potential wells have a narrow spike barrier B3 located at their centers. The potential wells not having the barrier B3 have ground energy levels E5 and upper energy levels E6. The potential wells having the spike barriers B3 have ground energy levels E7 and upper energy levels E6.
Because the potential wells all have the same width W4, their energy-level configurations would all be the same if spike barriers B3 were not present. However, due to the presence of spike barriers B3, ground energy levels E7 will be located at a significantly higher level than energy level E5. Upper energy level E6 in the wells with spike barrier B3 will be substantially unaffected by the presence of spike barrier B3. As such upper levels E6 in the FIG. 4 configuration will all be located at substantially the same level. Consequently, energy difference E6-E5 will be substantially greater than energy difference E6-E7. These energy differences will absorb IR at widely different frequencies giving rise to multicolor operation. It will be evident to those skilled in these arts that more complex techniques employing computer models may be used to find appropriate structures that will ensure significant multicolor operation.
FIG. 6 illustrates a potential profile to be used in a three-color IR detector. The FIG. 6 potential profile is made up of a series of similar potential-well sets 30. Each set 30 includes three potential wells having different energy-level spacings to produce a three-color IR photodetector.
Each set 30 includes: (1) a potential well of width W5 having energy levels E8 and E9; (2) a potential well of width W5 having a spike barrier B6 located at its center and having energy levels E9 and E10; and (3) a potential well of width W6 having a spike barrier B7 at its center and having energy levels E11 and E12. Spike barriers B6 and B7 may be formed, for example, as AlAs barriers a few monolayers thick. Energy levels E8, E9, E10, E11 and E12 are chosen such that energy differences E9-E8, E9-E10 and E11-E12 are significantly different, thereby producing three-color operation.
Similar modifications may be made to produce multi-color IR detectors having four or more different frequency absorption bands. FIG. 7 illustrates a potential profile for a four-color IR detector. In FIG. 7, the potential profile is made up of a series of alternate potential-well sets 31, 32. Each set 31, 32 has a profile similar to the potential profile shown in FIGS. 4, 5. Specifically, each potential-well set 31 is formed from two potential wells of equal width W7 separated by wide barriers B8. One of these wells has a spike barrier B9 located at its center. As such, each well in set 31 has substantially the same upper energy level E14 and widely differing ground energy levels E13 and E15. As such, energy differences E14-E13 and E14-E15 will be widely different, thereby producing IR absorption at two widely different IR frequencies.
Similarly, each potential-well set 32 is formed from two potential wells of equal width W8 separated by wide barriers B8. One of the potential wells in each set 32 has a spike barrier B10 located at its center. As such, each well in set 32 has substantially the same upper energy level E16 and widely differing ground energy levels E17 and E18. The four energy differences E14-E13, E14-E15, E16-E17 and E16-E18 are different, thereby producing four widely different IR absorption frequency bands to be used for four-color IR detection.
It should be understood, of course, that the foregoing disclosure relates to only preferred embodiments of the invention and that numerous other modifications or alterations may be made therein without departing from the spirit and the scope of the invention as set forth in the appended claims.
