ing Student Loans
Hi all,
Friend of mine has a horrible credit file filled with a LOT of lates and CO's. I took a look at his EQ report and he's literally got 7 Nelnet loans and about 10 Sallie Mae loans reporting, as well as a Nelnet/Suntrust SL. He went through a really bad patch and is just getting back to good this year, but all of the lates on EVERY one of his student loans has absolutely killed his score. Looking at his report makes me hyperventilate because it just looks like no amount of good he does could make up for so many accounts reflecting 120 days late at various times over the past four years.
If he were to consolidate his loans would that cause them to just be reported as one tradeline for all the loans that were consolidated? I'm thnking that if this is the case that he could consolidate, all of his current student loan tradelines would report a $0 balance and paid in full and he would wind up with just one or two new tradelines for the consolidated loans which would (hopefully?) show a completely positive history, starting from the time the loans were consolidated going forward.
Is this possible? It really just seems that otherwise he's looking at a LOOOONG road to climbing out of the low 500's even though he's now current on all of those tradelines.
Thank you all!

ENI, founded in 1953, is Gazprom Group's main partner in the Italian market. The company's corporate structure has three business units: Exploration & Production, Gas & Power, and Refining & Marketing. Gas purchases and sales are handled by ENI Gas & Power S.p.A., part of the second unit. Gazprom Group supplies natural gas under three long-term contracts with ENI.
Gas is also exported to other companies operating in the Italian market, such as Sinergie Italiane, Axpo Trading AG, ERG, and AEMME Linea Energie.
In addition, Russian gas is delivered to Italy through subsidiaries JSC Promgaz (established on a parity basis by Gazprom and ENI in June 1993; Gazprom bought out ENI's stake in late 2011) and PremiumGaz (established in 2008 with A2A S.p.A. and Iride S.p.A).
Natural gas supply to Italy in 2014, under all contracts, came to 21.68 bcm. A total of around 562.06 bcm has been supplied to this country since 1974.
Gazprom and ENI jointly implemented the Blue Stream project within their strategic alliance based on the Agreement signed in 1998. The pipeline system is operated by a dedicated Russian-Italian company called the Blue Stream Pipeline Company. The gas pipeline's capacity is divided between Gazprom and ENI on a 50/50 basis. In 2010, the pipeline reached its designed capacity of 16 bcm per annum.
Gazprom/Gazprom Export signed a Strategic Partnership Agreement with ENI on November 14, 2006. As a result, since April 1, 2007, Gazprom Group has also been able to supply Russian gas directly to the Italian market through the ENI company's concession of its TAG gas pipeline capacities and gas volumes, around 3 bcm, to Gazprom Export.

A UFO Over Jerusalem? Only If You Want To Believe In Those Sorts Of Things
I have to say, I'm a sucker for UFO stories. So I couldn't pass up passing this along.
Videos have surfaced on YouTube that claim to show a UFO, really a glowing, pulsating ball of light, as it descends from the sky, hovers over the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem and then shoots straight back up into the night sky.
The Sydney Morning Herald says the sightings took place on January 28. A story on The Vancouver Sun offers several choices of video showing the event.
Is it a hoax? Probably. Or, maybe, it's just an illusion, a trick of the eye and there's some more down-to-earth explanation. But, for the moment, it's fun to take it at face value and just wonder: What was that?

A virtual library for 8 UEMOA countries under discussion in Dakar
The development of information technology and new mode of dissemination requires Higher Education and Research Institutions to adapt the information services they offer to students.
The need to establish a sub-regional virtual library has emerged as part of the PADTICE project by UEMOA and UNESCO, and combining resources will allow a greater impact of the proposed project.
"The idea is to build on local virtual libraries and unite them into a sub-regional library for the UEMOA countries," says Jean -Pierre Ilboudo, Regional Advisor for Communication and Information at UNESCO Regional Office in Dakar
The people in charge for the UEMOA Libraries
A workshop was held in Dakar (Senegal) from 11 to 12 April 2014 to bring together the heads of Libraries in eight UEMOA countries (Benin , Burkina Faso, Côte d' Ivoire, Guinea Bissau, Mali, Niger, Senegal and Togo). The workshop was organized at the School of Librarians, Archivists and Documentalists of Dakar (EBAD) which is a regional institution.
The workshop enabled the heads of library in UEMOA countries to discuss a number of issues, including :
- A status report on virtual libraries in the UEMOA countries
- A comparison of Integrated Management Systems of Libraries and recommendations
- A draft plan on the organization and functioning of the proposed sub-regional library
- A draft plan on the a framework for cooperation and a charter for the new regional library.
Choosing software
The participants agreed to select the Invenio software, an open source software developed by CERN, as the integrated management system for the library. They also approved the creation and organization of the network of university libraries.
The framework for the new regional library will be presented to the rectors at a meeting of REESAO, a network of excellence of higher education in West Africa), from 14-17 April 2014.
The meeting concluded with a need for training and IT support, in implementing and managing the new tools, as suggested by UNESCO.
The following people participated in the workshop:
- The Rector of the University of Cheikh Anta Diop of Dakar, Professor Saliou Ndiaye
- Mr. Ilboudo , Regional Advisor for Communication and Information, UNESCO Regional Office in Dakar, who was representing the Director of the Office, Mrs. Ann Therese Ndong- Jatta
- The Director of EBAD , Mr. Diarra,
- The heads of libraries or their representatives from each of eight UEMOA countries,
- The project team at the EBAD for the implementation of the Digital Library.

Celebrate the New Year With Canopus
By Alison Hawkes, Bay Nature
With New Year's Eve just approaching, you may find yourself staring at the heavens and wondering what 2013 portends. If you're lucky and put yourself in just the right spot at midnight, you may be able to see the second-brightest star in the sky that's normally invisible to much of the Bay Area — Canopus.
Dale Gieringer, an amateur astronomer and, you could say, Canopus aficionado, has been tracking down sightings of the elusive Canopus since 1972. The Oakland resident has traveled all over the Bay Area in search of spots where the supergiant appears, ever so low on the horizon.
"The problem is you have to have just the right conditions — a clear night with a perfect horizon," he said. "You can't say you will have a Canopus party tonight and with any certainty it's going to pan out."
Canopus is the northernmost star of the famous stars of the southern skies, where it shines just below the brightest of stars visible from Earth, Sirius. In theory, Canopus' northern limit of visibility is latitude 37°18′ north, right around San Jose. The Lick Observatory on Mount Hamilton is, maybe, the best viewing spot, because its elevation and atmospheric refraction add another degree to the star's apparent altitude.
Read the complete story at Bay Nature.

IRVING - Pat M. Willson, 79, died Saturday, June 26, 2004, in Dallas.
Private burial will be at Llano Cemetery in Amarillo by Donnelly's Colonial Funeral Home.
Pat was born in Dalhart on March 17, 1925. During the Great Depression of the 1930s, her father, Amos Leslie Willson (her mother was Richie Adela Hobgood) took whatever job he could find, as did many others. She lived with her family, along with her older brother Amos Leslie Jr., in various towns in the Panhandle of Texas. This included Wellington, where her paternal grandparents, Samuel O., a shoemaker, and Rosella Willson resided for years before moving to a small farm south of Decatur.
In 1935, the Willson family also lived on the farm and Pat and her brother, Leslie, often walked home from a Decatur school when the weather permitted, avoiding the circuitous route of a school bus. In 1938, the Willson family moved to Amarillo, where Pat's father found a job in the Finklea Electric Company. Some years later, he left that employment and founded his own Texhoma Electric Co. Many wheat elevators in the Panhandle were wired by Amos L. Willson and his crew. Like her brother, Pat graduated from Amarillo High School, and like him, she attended the University of Texas, the only campus of which was in Austin at the time, as an art major. She was a gifted artist in various mediums, such as pen and ink, clay and pencil, but eventually her favorite pastime became creating jewelry set with semiprecious stones.
She took employment with General Electric as an order clerk, working at first with a typewriter and eventually a computer. Years later, visiting Leslie, then a retired Germanic languages professor who had taught for many years at the University of Texas in Austin, he came upon her typing on his computer and was amazed to discover that she had never learned touch-typing. Her speedy hunt-and-peck system amazed him.
Her job took her to Irving and in 1971, after the death of her father, she moved her mother there, too, into a house on the opposite side and a few doors down the street on which she lived. She had dachshund companions for many years, until they were stolen in a burglary of her house. She then acquired a purebred German shepherd, Katie, to keep her company and guard the house when she was at work. She will be remembered by a host of friends throughout the United States.
Survivors include a brother, Leslie Willson and wife, Jeanne, of Austin; two nephews, Brian of Rockport, Maine, and Kevin of Austin; and a niece, Juliet Jimnez of Austin.

The Great Railroad Strike of 1877
The Cause of It All
The Great Railroad Strike of 1877 had been inevitable for quite some time before the workers actually took action. During the years leading up to the strike, the country was suffering from depression. People were facing wage cuts, job losses, and some found themselves homeless. But it was the Panic of 1873 that truly influenced the Railroad Strike. On the East coast, many were laid off and wages were lowered. The business owners justified these wage cuts as practical because the workers as poor business conditions and therefore should not be paid as much. However, workers knew that businessmen were paying stockholders large sums of money.
Then in 1877, America fell into more depression. Times were difficult and called for reduced wages. When the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company reduced wages by 10%, for the second time, the workers decided they had enough.
Rioters saw railroad companies as their main enemy. They seized freight yards, blocked railroad tracks, and destroyed railroad property altogether. At one railroad in Pittsburg, over $5 million worth of damage was done to the property. Local militias as well as federal troops were called to help control the strike, but the strikers would not back down. They shot back at troops and even threw rocks at them. The mobs believed that they were fighting for American equality and independence, but they were doing this in a very violent way. Strikers even lost public sympathy because of their chaotic manner. Joseph McDonnell, the editor of a magazine titled Labor Standard commented that:
"While we are disorganized, we are only a mob and a rabble; when organized we become a power to be respected. If the working men had been organized in every city the strike would be more successful…"
McDonnell had a point here, as the mobs really did not gain much from the strike. Had they protested in a civilized, organized way as opposed to animalistic violence, the strikes may have made a difference.
|Rioters destroying the Union Depot in Pittsburg
The Top 5 Major Cities
The Strike was popular all throughout the country, but mostly in Baltimore MD, Chicago IL, Pittsburgh PA, St. Louis MI, and Martinsburg WV. Martinsburg: Workers in Martinsburg set up blockades along railroads to keep trains from moving. They threatened to keep doing this until their wages were returned. Local militia was called in to stop them, but the strike had already spread to other cities across America. Baltimore: Baltimore was one of the cities influenced by the strike in Martinsburg. Like in Martinsburg, the local militia was called in to stop the strike, but the strikers just threw stones at the militia. The militia opened fire and 10 people were killed. In protest of the deaths, 14,000 people destroyed Railroad property. Federal troops were requested to come in. Pittsburgh: Although the violence was bad in Martinsburg and Baltimore, it was much worse in Pittsburgh. A mob of strikers set destructive fires to 39 buildings, 104 cars, and around 1,200 railcars. The militia was called in, but they refused to use violence on the strikers, so the National Guard was called in. They fired on the crowd killing 20 people, and injuring several hundred others. In response, the strikers destroyed $5 million worth of railroad property. St. Louis: The strike also spread to Missouri. On July 21, 1877 riots started in St. Louis and lasted for approximately a week. However, this strike was against general labor, instead of only railroad labor. Chicago: The Workingmen's party organized a strike of 20,000 men in Illinois. They held rallies with an average of 6,000 people throughout Chicago. UnlikePittsburgh, the local militia resorted to violence to stop the strike. Their tactics included beatings and open-fire. In total, a staggering 750 strikers were killed by the militia.
|Workers throwing Stones at the Militia
The Great Railroad Strike of 1877 had many short and long term effects on America. Because of all the violence in the strike, many of the workers lost the sympathy of the general public. Without public sympathy, their desire to have their wages back became less important in the mind of Americans, and made people think they didn't deserve their old wages back. Another long term effect was, after a month or so of striking, the workers were pretty much back where they started. They gained pretty much nothing by striking. One short term effect was more and more workers looked to The Knights of Labor for economic advice and support. The Knights of Labor are a group who is for the rights of workers. Another short term effect was the National Guard being called in, making it a national problem, instead of just within those specific states. Even though The Great Railroad Strike of 1877 had a lot of short and long term effects on America, it was just the first of many strikes that were to come in the following years.

This emission, commonly called thermal flare emission, can vary in intensity by more than five orders of magnitude, and exhibits regular and predictable properties. A wealth of observational data regarding thermal solar flares has been collected. Through these data the morphological properties of thermal flares have been determined. Plasma properties such as electron temperatures, electron densities, mass motions, and variations in elemental abundances during the course of the flare are well established. Observational data have also been used to determine relationships between peak fluxes and maximum flare temperatures as well as general properties of the light curve of flares.
Measurements of the hole boring velocity from Doppler shifted harmonic emission from solid targets3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871606View Description Hide Description
The fast ignitor scheme for inertial confinement fusion requires forward driving of the critical density surface by light pressure (hole boring) to allow energy deposition close to the dense fuel. The recession velocity of the critical density surface has been observed to be v/c=0.015 at an irradiance of 1.0×1019 W cm−2 at a wavelength of 1.05 micron, in quantitative agreement with modeling.
Observation of beam‐enhanced sheath instability in a double plasma device3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871607View Description Hide Description
The effects of ion beams on sheathproperties are experimentally investigated in a double plasma device. The dispersion relations of the ion beam plasmas are measured by interferometer method. The low‐frequency instability due to sheath around the negatively biased grid is found to be controlled by two parameters, namely the grid biasing voltage and source anode biasing voltage. The instability is caused by the resonant coupling of the three ion beams that arise due to asymmetry of the sheath potential. The sheath structure follows the Child–Langmuir law and the frequency of the instability is also found to be inversely proportional to the sheath thickness. Therefore, the transit time model is considered to explain the observed phenomena. The coupling between the beam and the oscillating component of the ions through the sheath enhances the instability growth which occurs mainly in the presheath region. The excitation of the instability occurs within certain range of velocity ratio of different beam modes.
Perpendicular ion acceleration by localized high frequency electric fields in magnetized plasmas3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871608View Description Hide Description
A basic process capable of explaining observations of fast perpendicular ions in a wide range of plasma environments is described. Spatial symmetry breaking perpendicular to the confining magnetic field is shown to cause irreversible energy gain for ions gyrating through an electric field having a nonuniform amplitude. The efficiency depends on the ratio of the ion Larmor radius to the scale length of the amplitude gradient, and on the scaled frequency ν≡ω/Ω i . A Landau resonance is not required, and there is no lower threshold on the electric field, because the mechanism is active in the linear regime. Theory, numerics, and particle‐in‐cell simulations are used to illustrate the interaction for electrostatic fields in the lower‐hybrid range of frequencies, but the process does not depend on a particular type of mode.
Evolution of a Maxwellian plasma driven by ion‐beam‐induced ionization of a gas3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871609View Description Hide Description
The ionization of gas by intense (MeV, kA/cm2) ion beams is investigated for the purpose of obtaining scaling relations for the rate of rise of the electron density, temperature, and conductivity of the resulting plasma. Various gases including He, N, and Ar at pressures of order 1 torr have been studied. The model is local and assumes a drifting Maxwellian electron distribution. In the limit that the beam to gas density ratio is small, the initial stage of ionization occurs on the beam impact ionization time and lasts on the order of a few nanoseconds. Thereafter, ionization of neutrals by the thermal electrons dominates electron production. The electron density does not grow exponentially, but proceeds linearly on a fast time scale t th=U/(v b ρ dE/dx) associated with the time taken for the beam to lose energyU via collisional stopping in the gas, where U is the ionization potential of the gas, v b is the beam velocity, ρ is the gas mass density, and dE/dx is the mass stopping power in units of eV cm2/g. This results in a temperature with a slow time dependence and a conductivity with a linear rise time proportional to t th.
l=1 electrostatic instability induced by electron‐neutral collisions in a nonneutral electron plasma interacting with background neutral gas3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871610View Description Hide Description
This paper investigates theoretically the electrostatic stability properties of a nonneutral electron plasma interacting with background neutral gas through elastic collisions with constant collision frequency ν en . The model treats the electrons as a strongly magnetized fluid (ω pe 2/ω ce 2≪1) immersed in a uniform magnetic field B 0 ê z , and assumes small‐amplitude perturbations with azimuthal mode number l=1 and negligible axial variation (∂/∂z=0). The analysis also assumes weak electron collisions with ν en /ω ce =ε≪1, and that the process of heat conduction is sufficiently fast that the electrons have relaxed through electron‐electron collisions to a quasiequilibrium state with scalar pressure P(r,θ,t)=n(r,θ,t)T, and isothermal temperature T. Assuming that perturbed quantities vary with time according to exp(−iωt), the detailed stability analysis carried out to first order in ν en /ω ce ≪1 shows that the real oscillation frequency and growth rate for the l=1 diocotron mode are given, respectively, by the simple expressions Re ω=ω0 and Im ω=(ν en /ω ce )ω0. Here, ω0=Nec/r 2 wB 0, where r w is the perfectly conducting wall radius, and N=∫d 2 x n is the number of electrons per unit axial length. This analysis suggests that a measurement of the oscillation frequency and growth rate for the l=1 diocotron mode can be used to infer ν en , and thereby serve as a sensor for the background neutral pressure.
Instability of stagnation points in magnetohydrodynamic equilibria3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871595View Description Hide Description
Instabilities associated with streamlines connecting stagnation points in an equilibrium with plane incompressible flow are studied. It is shown that they belong to two different types: If the velocity of fluid absorption at the endpoint is greater than the velocity of fluid emission at the initial point, only a discrete spectrum of unstable standing waves is possible; otherwise, Alfvénic waves accumulate to form a continuum of unstable frequencies. These are present no matter how small the equilibrium field or the mode number of the magnetic oscillations.
Spherical versus nonspherical plasma‐screening effects on semiclassical electron–ion collisional excitations in weakly coupled plasmas3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871596View Description Hide Description
Spherical and nonspherical plasma‐screening effects are investigated on electron‐impact excitation of hydrogenic ions in weakly coupled plasmas. Semiclassical straight‐line trajectory method is used to describe the behavior of the projectile electron. Scaled 1s→2p −1 semiclassical excitation probabilities are obtained by the spherical and nonspherical Debye–Hückel interaction potentials. The plasma‐screening effect of the bound atomic wave functions in the transition probability obtained by the spherical Debye–Hückel model is found to be more effective than that in the transition probability obtained by the nonspherical Debye–Hückel model. The maximum position of the transition probability obtained by the nonspherical Debye–Hückel potential is more receded from the nucleus than that of transition probability obtained by the spherical Debye–Hückel potential.
The relativistic drift Hamiltonian3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871597View Description Hide Description
The relativistic Hamiltonian for the guiding center motion of particles in electric and magnetic fields is given in its canonical form. This drift Hamiltonian is valid if the particle gyroradius is sufficiently small compared to the spatial scale, and the cyclotron frequency is sufficiently large compared to the temporal scale, of the magnetic and electric fields. A method for determining the required magnetic coordinates for an earth‐like magnetic field is also given.
Electron heating in inductively coupled discharges3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871598View Description Hide Description
An analytic expression for the surface impedance for electron heating in inductively coupled discharges is derived from the kinetic equation with the optimum ordering that ν∼ω. Here, ν is the electron collision frequency, and ω is the frequency of the driven current inside the antenna coil. The expression is valid for both collisional and collisionless discharges, and can be employed in the modeling of the source.
Structure of homogeneous nonhelical magnetohydrodynamic turbulence3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871599View Description Hide Description
Results are presented for three‐dimensional direct numerical simulations of nonhelical magnetohydrodynamic(MHD)turbulence for both stationary isotropic and homogeneous shear flow configurations with zero mean induction and unity magnetic Prandtl number. Small scale dynamo action is observed in both flows, and stationary values for the ratio of magnetic to kinetic energy are shown to scale nearly linearly with the Taylor microscale Reynolds numbers above a critical value of Reλ≊30. The presence of the magnetic field has the effect of decreasing the kinetic energy of the flow, while simultaneously increasing the Taylor microscale Reynolds number due to enlargement of the hydrodynamic length scales. For shear flows, both the velocity and the magnetic fields become increasingly anisotropic with increasing initial magnetic field strength. The kinetic energy spectra show a relative increase in high wave‐number energy in the presence of a magnetic field. The magnetic field is found to portray an intermittent behavior, with peak values of the flatness near the critical Reynolds number. The magnetic field of both flows is organized in the form of ''flux tubes'' and magnetic ''sheets.'' These regions of large magnetic field strength show a small correlation with moderate vorticity regions, while the electric current structures are correlated with large amplitude strain regions of the turbulence. Some of the characteristics of small scale MHDturbulence are explained via the ''structural'' description of turbulence.
Electron cyclotron resonance heating near the turning point in inhomogeneous magnetic field3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871600View Description Hide Description
Cyclotron resonanceheating of electrons in a magnetic beach is studied by rigorous numerical analysis of the electron trajectories. It is confirmed that a heating response function [Y. Kiwamoto et al., Phys. Plasmas 1 834 (1994)] connecting the velocity distributions in both sides of the resonance layer can be applied over a wider range of electron velocities than originally expected. For electrons mirror‐reflected close to the resonance layer, however, the electron velocity distribution after heating substantially deviates from the prediction of the response function. The deviation is quantitatively evaluated to obtain a criterion of applicability of the response function.
The nonlinear diocotron mode in a pure electron plasma3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871601View Description Hide Description
The nonlinear diocotron mode, discussed by Fine, Driscoll, and Malmberg [Phys. Rev. Lett. 63, 2232 (1989)] is characterized by two equations, one describing the frequency of orbiting, the other giving the quadrupole moment, as functions of size and offset. A new analysis, based on the method of moments, which yields equations more general in their content, is presented here. For example, the new equations describe columns whose shapes are not elliptical and whose densities are not constant.
Analysis of the self‐oscillations instability due to the plasma coupling with an emissive hot cathode sheath3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871602View Description Hide Description
Experimental results are reported showing that plasma self‐oscillations appear when the ion flux arriving at the hot emissive cathode double sheath boundary from a continuous plasma discharge is not high enough to sustain the discharge. Using the stability criterion of a double sheath and the particle balance equations, different conditions for the plasma stability are stated, in good qualitative agreement with experimental results. A nonlinear analysis giving the noninteger correlation dimension in a chaotic self‐oscillations regime is also reported, showing that a complete understanding of this instability may be reached by a finite set of nonlinear equations.
Even and odd modes driven by the trapped ion temperature gradient over the secular scale3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871603View Description Hide Description
In the long wavelength limit, the trapped ion temperature gradient driven modes on the secular scale are investigated by considering the lowest order effects of the finite banana orbit width and using the two‐scale expansion. Attention is focused on the effects of the wave–particle interaction over the secular scale. Also, the effects of the collisionless trapped electron dynamics are considered. The eigenmode equation derived is in the form of a modified Bessel equation. The even modes are almost not influenced by the effects of the wave–particle interaction. But for odd modes, the wave–particle interaction can give rise to instabilities of the ion branches. These odd modes are similar to the trapped ion scatteringmodes pointed out first by Coppi and Rewoldt [Advances in Plasma Physics, edited by A. Simon and W. Thompson (Wiley, New York, 1976), Vol. 6, p. 421]. The dependence of the growth rates on the ion temperature gradient is analyzed numerically. The typical eigenfunction curves of both the even and odd modes driven by the trapped ion temperature gradient over the secular scale are displayed.
Theory‐based transport modeling of the gyro‐radius experiments3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871604View Description Hide Description
Self‐consistent predictive transport simulations of temperature and density profiles have been carried out for ten dimensionally similar low (L) mode discharges from the TokamakFusion Test Reactor (TFTR) [D. Grove and D. M. Meade, Nucl. Fusion25, 1167 (1985)], Doublet III‐D Tokamak [J. L. Luxon and L. G. Davis, Fusion Technol. 8, 441 (1985)], and the Joint European Torus [P. H. Rebut, R. J. Bickerton, and B. E. Keen, Nucl. Fusion25, 1011 (1985)], where only the normalized Larmor radius was allowed to vary. It is found that a purely gyro‐Bohm transport model predicts temperature and density profiles that match the experimental data from these ρ* scans very well. In particular, a combination of theoretically derived transport models is used in these simulations, including the Weiland model for transport due to drift waves(ion temperature gradient and trapped electron modes) and the Guzdar–Drake model for transport due to resistive ballooningmodes. These gyro‐Bohm transport models depend very sensitively on the shapes as well as the magnitudes of the profiles. As the magnetic field, density and temperature are changed in each dimensionally similar series of discharges, the penetration length of neutrals from the edge varies considerably. This effect causes the shape of the density profiles to change near the edge of the plasma, which causes the scaling of our transport model diffusivities to differ significantly from their fundamentally gyro‐Bohm scaling.
Characterization of a partially‐ionized, detached, divertor plasma3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871611View Description Hide Description
A combined edge plasma/Navier–Stokes neutral transportmodel is used to characterize divertorplasma detachment, in the collisional limit for neutrals, on a simplified two‐dimensional slab geometry with Alcator‐C‐MOD‐like plasma conditions [I. H. Hutchinson et al., Phys. Plasmas1, 1511 (1994)]. The neutral model contains three momentum equations which are coupled to the plasma through ionization, recombination, and ion–neutral elastic collisions. The neutral transport coefficients are evaluated including both ion–neutral and neutral–neutral collisions. Detachment is brought about via impurity radiation using a fixed fraction impurity model. The transportmodel is shown to reproduce all salient features of experimentally observed detachment, such as large drops in ion saturation current and plasma heat flux at the divertor plate. The solutions are also shown to be sensitive to volume recombination. A region of relatively high toroidal neutral Mach number is observed upon detachment. Due to the high neutral densities, 75% of the Lyman α radiation is assumed trapped in the problem. A total edge radiative loss (neutrals and impurities) of approximately 75% of the power crossing the separatrix is needed to observe strong detachment on Alcator‐C‐MOD‐like plasmas using the described model.
An analytic study of the magnetohydrodynamic stability of inverse shear profiles3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871612View Description Hide Description
This paper reports on the ideal magnetohydrodynamic(MHD) stability of tokamak field profiles that have a non‐monotonic safety factor q(r). An analytic criterion is obtained for these ''inverse shear'' profiles by expanding in inverse aspect ratio and assuming that the minimum in q is slightly less than the m/n value of the mode under examination (m and n being the principal poloidal and toroidal mode numbers of the instability). Three terms are identified as controlling the stability of this ''double kink''; two of them are stabilizing and due, respectively, to field line bending and the interaction of average favorable curvature with the pressure gradient. The possibility of instability comes from the third term which is due to toroidal coupling and is ballooning in character. The analytic results are compared with those from a fully toroidal stability code.
Reduction of transport in stellarators by self‐shielding3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871613View Description Hide Description
In neoclassical transport theory the parallel viscosity causes the plasma pressure orthogonal to the magnetic field to depend on the poloidal and toroidal angles. If the Fourier components of the perpendicular pressure and the field strength are p MN and ε MN B 0, then one obtains strong shielding of a Fourier component of the field when |p MN |/|ε MN |>B 2 0/μ0. Estimates imply shielding becomes important in a stellarator for |ε MN | smaller than a few tenths of a percent.
A threshold for excitation of neoclassical tearing modes3(1996); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.871614View Description Hide Description
Stability criterion for neoclassical tearing modes is obtained from the drift kinetic equation. A finite amplitude of a magnetic island is required for mode excitation. The threshold is determined by the ratio of the transversal and the parallel transport near the island when the flattening of the pressure profile eliminates the bootstrap current. A number of supershots from the database of the TokamakFusion Test Reactor (TFTR) [D. J. Grove and D. M. Meade, Nucl. Fusion25, 1167 (1985)] are compared with the theory. In cases where the modes were observed in experiment the stability criterion was violated.

Hugh's latest high note
- From: The Sunday Telegraph
- December 16, 2012
THERE is a lot to admire about Tom Hooper's ambitious film version of the beloved stage musical of Victor Hugo's 1862 novel Les Miserables.
It's got a cast filled with performers known for their theatre chops - most notably Hugh Jackman, angling for an Oscar in the lead role as Jean Valjean and clearly this is a dream project for everyone involved.
There are plenty of surprises in the cast (not all of them pleasant). You'd expect Jackman to shine, but Anne Hathaway is a revelation as the fallen Fantine, giving a performance of unexpected depth. Vocals were recorded live on set and sometimes the pitch isn't perfect, although the two standouts are the big ballads: Hathaway provides a stunning I Dreamed A Dream in a single close-up, while Samantha Barks gives a breakout performance as Eponine, especially in her heartstring-snapping On My Own.
On the other hand, Russell Crowe has nothing to do as Valjean's antagonist Inspector Javert except stand to attention and look slightly uncomfortable. The role requires a lusty baritone, and Rusty's gruff bottom register is nowhere near up to the task.
Similarly Amanda Seyfried as Cosette maintains her career-long policy of looking pretty without expressing human emotion, chirping through her numbers with all the passion of a teenage girl idly wondering what to have for lunch. However, Sacha Baron Cohen and Helena Bonham Carter are perfect as the comically unscrupulous criminal innkeepers, the Thenardiers, and their Master Of The House is the film's most dynamic sequence.
The direction has some issues too. Paris is shown as a filthy metropolis of mud, blood and squalor, and the gritty realism of the sets and costumes conflicts with the inherent ridiculousness of having people continually burst into song. The film also tests one's patience for crane shots of a character holding an impassioned final note in the rain, which happens rather too frequently.
Fans of the musical will flock to see this and the highs are legitimately high. But some judicious editing and a few better casting decisions could have turned this from merely good to truly great.

Israel Offers Incentives to Draw Foreign Banks' R&D Centers
Israel is trying to lure international banks to set up research and development centers in the country by offering to pay part of the employees' salaries, Finance Ministry Director General Haim Shani said.
Israel's government will pay as much as 50 percent of the workers' wages at the banks' R&D units for up to five years, Shani said in an interview at Bloomberg's headquarters office in New York yesterday. The incentive will vary depending on whether the centers will be based in the central part of the country or in the periphery as well as on the level of salary, he said.
"We want to attract large financial services companies, particularly big banks," said Shani, 53, who was previously the chief executive officer of the Israeli maker of digital- recording products, Nice Systems Ltd. "It will make part of their competitive advantage in the years to come."
Israel wants to capitalize on its technology industry, whose exports rose an annualized 68 percent in the first 11 months in 2009, to help boost growth following the global economic crisis. The country's economy will grow by 3.6 percent this year, according to a June 6 Finance Ministry forecast, and by 3.8 percent next year.
Shani is meeting with officials at U.S. financial companies following meetings in the U.K. a few months ago. He declined to name any of the banks he will visit.
"We are here to listen to what they want and tell them what we have and what our plans are," he said.
Intel Corp.'s Israel unit has received $1.2 billion in grants from the Israeli government since it began manufacturing in the country 25 years ago. The chipmaker has invested a total of $7.3 billion in its Israeli operations. The company accounted for 10 percent of Israel's industrial exports, Intel Israel's General Manager Maxine Fassberg said at a press conference in Tel Aviv on Feb. 8.

I am quite happy with this plugin, so first of all, thank you :-)
I have used this plugin to keep an overview over activity on the blog. I do see that from time to time I get spammed with failed attempts to login. When these happen from the same IP I can block it using the blacklist, but sometiems I also get multiple login attempts sequentually timestamped, but from different IP's. These are harder to block without setting the max failed attempts very low (incconvenient for the actual users). However, it occurs to me that all of these attempts seems to go for a standard set of usernames, based on default values or domain name used for hosting the site. Therefore, to counter this issue even further, I was wondering if it would be possible to include an option for defaulting login attempts using certain loginnames directly to the IP blacklist (basically blacklist them on first attempt)?
E.g. assuming you have changed the default username 'admin' to something else and no user is using anything like this as a username, this would be a perfect username to automatically blacklist. Same goes for {domain} or {domain} excluding tail (.com, .ue etc.).
At least I would find this very useful :-)

FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. (AP) Proposed laws would make it harder for impostors to buy North Carolina license plates with a military theme.
The Fayetteville Observer reported Monday that bills in the state legislature would require that a driver provide proof of eligibility before being sold a military plate.
The state Division of Motor Vehicles currently offers at least 35 license plates that would fall into the military category.
Plates are available for those who win Bronze Stars, Purple Hearts and for those who served in specific units like the 82nd Airborne Division or the Navy submarine service. Plates also are available for service in Vietnam and other conflicts.

Patriots Coach Belichick Laughs Off Deflatgate On Letterman [VIDEO]
New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick made an appearance on the David Letterman show last night and of course it made for some pretty funny television!
New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick made an appearance on the David Letterman show last night and of course it made for some pretty funny television!
Gronk had some fun yesterday...
Sunday night Patriots QB Tom Brady led the Patriots to a fourth Super Bowl win. Now he wants to give the Chevy truck that comes with winning the MVP Award to rookie Malcolm Butler.
After blowing it last year, EA Sports nailed their Super Bowl predictions...it's actually kinda scary.
Giselle congratulated her Super Bowl MVP via Instagram last night with this photo and caption. We're very proud of him too!
While much talk leading up to the Super Bowl centered on the superstars, it was an undrafted rookie free agent who made the play to seal the fourth championship in team history.
The question remains, "who deflated the footballs?" Who was "the Locker Room Guy?" Here's a video that will answer all our our questions! Maybe.
We've heard everyone's predictions as to what team will win the Super Bowl this Sunday night! But what we really want to know, especially from the ladies, is who's hotter? Brady or Gronk?
This seems like it will be an exciting way to watch the Superbowl. Bangor Mall Cinema is going to show the game on Feb 1st, Superbowl Sunday FREE...
You've seen stadiums with retractable roofs, but have you ever seen a retractable field? That's what the Patriots are playing on for the Super Bowl Sunday.

6. Eddie Richardson1985
Scene of the crime: Houston, Texas
Countdown to unconsciousness: Round 1, 1:17
Tyson's first fight in the Lone Star State was nearly as memorable as the Alamo itself. He knocked down fellow American Eddie Richardson with the first punch he threw before driving him into the canvas for good at the 1:17 mark. "I see right now a major flaw in Mike Tyson's career," one broadcaster said after the match, "and that's going to be to have a fight that lasts long enough to get some good footage on."

Can football team live up to hype?
Published: Monday, July 11, 2005 at 11:34 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, July 11, 2005 at 12:23 p.m.
It's at this point in the summer that those wedded to LSU football begin to have withdrawal symptoms.
It's been more than two months since spring practice ended and another three weeks before players will arrive to begin summer and fall workouts.
Given the gap in activity, what's a fan to do?
Other than fidget and toss and turn, he or she can feast on the glut of available preseason information. If it's not one preseason ranking, it's another.
If it's not one awards watch list, it's another, and another and another ad nauseam.
Before the explosion of the Information Age, just how did fans whet their appetite for college football when nothing was happening?
Who knows, or who can remember?
Actually, who cares?
Today, there are so many opportunities to hear and read about the Tigers that it's almost as if the season were in high gear.
It'll be here soon enough, but until that time, people will have to satiate their hunger with news that LSU has been ranked here or there, and that this Tiger is among nominees for that award, and that Tiger is among nominees for this award.
Of all the material out there, the College Football News Web site provides the most accurate description of the Tigers.
The No. 2 ranking behind the University of Southern California has nothing to do with it, either.
Rather, it's CFN's assessment of LSU that defines the Tigers in a nutshell.
According to CFN, and numerous others who cover LSU on a regular basis, "There are only two things keeping the nation's most talented team from the top spot: uncertainty at quarterback, and new head coach Les Miles. . The situation is the difference between the Rose Bowl and not playing in the SEC title game."
Miles is mentioned simply because he is an unknown commodity, as was his predecessor, Nick Saban, when Saban took over the Tigers.
Of course, Saban didn't debut with such a wealth of talent.
The final spring scrimmage allowed a glimpse at some of the abundant athletic ability on hand.
It's up to Miles, and his new coaching staff, to figure out what to do with it.
Even with all that skill, the Tigers can't operate as effectively as possible without a capable quarterback at the controls.
That's where JaMarcus Russell, Matt Flynn and Ryan Perrilloux come into the picture.
Russell is the likely starter given his performance in the final spring scrimmage, Flynn's inexperience and Perrilloux's freshman status.
If only Russell had the respect afforded senior offensive tackle Andrew Whitworth, senior defensive tackle Kyle Williams and junior free safety LaRon Landry.
Whitworth is among the candidates for the Outland Trophy given to the country's top offensive or defensive linemen.
Williams and Landry are among those being considered for the Bronko Nagurski Award presented to the best defensive player.
Landry also is the running for the Jim Thorpe Award earmarked for the nation's leading defensive back.
All three have earned the right for such acclaim, as must the quarterback if he is to do his part in helping LSU reach such lofty, but attainable, heights.
LSU has a 30-9 record in games Whitworth has started over the previous three years.
Likely to become the first player in school history to start more than 50 career games, Whitworth will graduate in December after deciding to return to school rather than jump early to the NFL.
Williams and Landry have started each of the last two years, with both earning All-Southeastern Conference second-team status last year.
Williams recorded 57 total tackles, including six quarterback sacks, while Landry's 92 total tackles gave him the team lead in that category for the second year in a row.
The Tigers have looked good in the summer and in the preseason predictions.
That's not enough, though.
Hardcore fans can't wait for LSU to have the opportunity to prove that it's all true.
Courier correspondent Dave Moormann has covered LSU football since 1980.

Pakistan, the United States, and the Secret Trade in Nuclear Weapons
Walker & Company, Hardcover, 9780802715548, 608pp.
Publication Date: October 16, 2007
The shocking, three-decade story of A. Q. Khan and Pakistan's nuclear program, and the complicity of the United States in the spread of nuclear weaponry.
On December 15, 1975, A. Q. Khan a young Pakistani scientist working in Holland stole top-secret blueprints for a revolutionary new process to arm a nuclear bomb. His original intention, and that of his government, was purely patriotic to provide Pakistan a counter to India's recently unveiled nuclear device. However, as Adrian Levy and Catherine Scott-Clark chillingly relate in their masterful investigation of Khan's career over the past thirty years, over time that limited ambition mushroomed into the world's largest clandestine network engaged in selling nuclear secrets a mercenary and illicit program managed by the Pakistani military and made possible, in large part, by aid money from the United States, Saudi Arabia, and Libya, and by indiscriminate assistance from China.
Most unnerving, the authors reveal that the sales of nuclear weapons technology to Iran, North Korea, and Libya, so much in the news today, were made with the clear knowledge of the American government, for whom Pakistan has been a crucial buffer state and ally first against the Soviet Union, now in the "war against terror." Every successive American presidency, from Jimmy Carter to George W. Bush, has turned a blind eye to Pakistan's nuclear activity rewriting and destroying evidence provided by its intelligence agencies, lying to Congress and the American people about Pakistan's intentions and capability, and facilitating, through shortsightedness and intent, the spread of the very weapons we vilify the "axis of evil" powers for having and fear terrorists will obtain. "Deception" puts our current standoffs with Iran and North Korea in a startling new perspective, and makes clear two things: that Pakistan, far from being an ally, is a rogue nation at the epicenter of world destabilization; and that the complicity of the United States has ushered in a new nuclear winter.
Based on hundreds of interviews in the United States, Pakistan, India, Israel, Europe, and Southeast Asia, "Deception" is a masterwork of reportage and dramatic storytelling by two of the world's most resourceful investigative journalists. Urgently important, it should stimulate debate and command a reexamination of our national priorities.
Adrian Levy and Catherine Scott-Clark are internationally renowned and award-winning investigative journalists who worked as staff writers and foreign correspondents for the Sunday Times of London for seven years before joining the Guardian as senior correspondents. They are the authors of two highly acclaimed books, The Amber Room: The Fate of the World's Greatest Lost Treasure, and The Stone of Heaven: Unearthing the Secret History of Imperial Green Jade. They have reported from South Asia for more than a decade, and now live in London and in France.
Praise for DECEPTION:
"An un-putdownable and explosive account of our most recent times that reveals how while our leaders in the West claimed to be securing our future they were ultimately responsible for one of the greatest deceptions of the age." - Simon Reeve, author of the New York Times best-seller The New Jackals – Ramzi Yousef, Osama bin Laden and the Future of Terrorism.Praise for The Amber Room:
"Catherine Scott-Clark and Adrian Levy delve into the mystery of those vanishings, traversing half of Europe and five decades of history to arrive at a startling and controversial conclusion…The quest offers a detailed view into the communist system 15 years after the Berlin Wall tumbled and its still-pervasive impact upon individual lives and our understanding of history."—Chicago Tribune
"In 1941, in advance of the German invasion, the Amber Room was dismantled for protection but never seen again, leading to decades of conspiracy theories. Levy and Scott-Clark, British journalists, solve the mystery; their investigation reads like a Cold War thriller."—USA Today

Nearly perfect weekend.. Only missed the Sun..
The host was very accommodating, and available for key pick up and everything i might need. The area is close to the city center, so there are some bad apples around but also a nice area close by, so pretty much take it since you can just get anywhere from there since public transport is so close. would totally recommend.
Апартаменты находятся недалеко от метро, и продуктовых магазинов.
Район тихий. Номер очень простой. Стиральной машины нет. Постоянно есть запахи приготовления пищи.
The apartments are located close to the U-Bahn S-bahn, and grocery stores.
The area is quiet. The room is very simple. No washing machine. There is always a smell of cooking.
Nice and clean, without a glitch in the organization.
Had a horrible experience staying in this place. Firstly, check in is only available after 3pm but the office closes at 5pm. The toilet flush and wifi was not working at all when my friends and I arrived and we tried calling all the provided numbers but none could be reached. We had to just sit and wait for over an hour for the housekeeping lady. However, as soon as the office was reached they provided us with keys to another apartment which enabled us to use the wifi and toilet. But overall the place is old and not cosy at all.
This accommodation has a great costs to value ratio. We enjoyed our stay. Good and helpful service. One issue that really needs some work: the WiFi is horrible and unreliable.
Great value for money. Big and very clean apartment.
Had a nice and COLD weekend, frosty and wind, appartment easy to find: Unfortunately did the heating in the large bedroom not Work, so snuggle under the covers made it instead.
The appartment was very clean. Super close to a s-Bahn stop with lines to both the city center and the airport. The basic necessities. Perfect for our needs and very cheap.
The apartment is really nice and is located centrally (There is some noise from the railway). Modern, nice and clean. Communication with Carmen was unproblematic. I can recommend the apartment.
