Nevada coach Jacob Wilner and senior Kevin Lucas at the NCAA Regionals on Wednesday.
May 16, 2012
NORMAN, Okla. – Nevada's Kevin Lucas will tee off Thursday in the first round of the NCAA Regionals at the Jimmie Austin OU Golf Club.
Lucas, a senior from Folsom, Calif., is one of five individuals competing against 14 five-man teams who qualified or were invited to the Regional. The top five teams and the low individual not on one of those teams will move on to the NCAA Championships.
Lucas will tee off at 8:10 a.m. (Pacific) and live scoring is available via the link below. The 54-hole event will be played over three days.
This marks the fourth straight year that a Nevada individual has earned an at-large bid into the NCAA Regionals. Last year, Scott Smith was selected for the second time as he also went to the Regionals in 2009. In 2010, Jared Becher was selected and finished in a tie for fifth at Regionals.
"I'm excited to be here," Lucas said Wednesday. "My game feels really good and I am ready to play against some of the best players in the country." Lucas, a Folsom, Calif., native, is a two-time All-WAC selection during his time at Nevada. He earned second-team all-conference honors last year after transferring from Sierra College in Rocklin, Calif. This year, Lucas earned first-team All-WAC honors as he recorded one victory and eight top-10 finishes in 11 tournament appearances in 2011-12. His win, which came in the Pacific Fall Invitational, was Nevada's first by an individual since the spring of 2010. For the season, Lucas recorded a stroke average of 71.8. He had 16 of his 33 rounds at or under par on the year.
"The course is a great venue for a Regional championship," second-year coach Jacob Wilner said. "The greens are a perfect speed to make putts. The next three days are all about playing as close to mistake-free golf as possible and, most importantly, enjoying this opportunity that he earned because of his stellar season."
The Norman Region will be hosted by the University of Oklahoma and features 14 teams and five individuals. Lucas was the second individual selected of the five at the location. It is one of six regional sites and the top five teams from each region along with the low individual not on one of those teams will advance to the NCAA Championships at Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, Calif.

FACED WITH mounting debts on a loan from JPMorgan Chase bank, Texas-based LS Motorsports, the distributor for Diamo brand scooters, motorcycles and ATVs, Fischer motorcycles and Italjet vehicles, has liquidated all of its assets at auction.
As a result of the liquidation, another company has agreed to distribute the Diamo brand to ensure that dealers continue to receive support, says Mathu Solo, LS Motorsports president.
The new owner of the Diamo brand is Precision Powersports, which will now serve as distributor of the scooter, motorcycle and ATV lineup. Precision Powersports is part of the Precision Group of Companies and is owned by Jeff Steinkirchner and Larry Cekella.
Scooter industry veteran Joel Martin and his company, Martin Racing Performance (MRP) purchased the bulk of the Diamo from the LS Motorsports auction. In a press release Martin said that the company does not sell retail and wants to work with dealers to help service customers in need of parts.
"I have had a lot of Diamo dealers contact us that could not meet our minimum [orders] because they are smaller stores, so we will work with those stores," Martin explained in the release. "We want the dealers to know we are here to help and have lowered our dealer minimums."
Solo, who, along with his brother founded the company in 2003, says that he will continue to act as the distributor for Fischer motorcycles and for the Italjet brand.
LS Motorsports and Solo were notified in late in 2008 that the company was in default on a small business loan it had received in 2006. On Feb. 2, 2009, the bank filed suit against the company saying it owed more than $1.2 million.
In an e-mail to Dealernews, Solo says the chain of events started when the company received notice that Chase was not renewing its credit line and demanded payment for debts owed. "LS Motorsports was facing the same challenges as many companies in our industry and was not able to secure financing during the recent economic crisis and was unable to meet the demands of their creditors," Solo wrote. "As a result the assets of LS Motorsports has been liquidated at auction." (continued)

Manchester: An Architectural History
Manchester University Press, 2000 - Architecture - 366 pages
"Manchester: An Architectural History" is the first comprehensive and critical examination of the city's architecture from its origins in the Roman settlement at Castlefield to the present day re-building of the city center. More than an analysis of individual buildings, the book is about the growth of Manchester from a "mere village" to what many see as England's second city.

Hiras Fashion: Style Journal
2 years ago
Band/album: Nobunny, Love Visions
Label: 1234 GO
For fans of: Sha-na-na fuzz punk, the Hexxers, the Washouts, the Wailers (the garage band), the Haze (Hasil Adkins), the Mummies, the Cramps, the Ramones, the Queers, the Stitches, the 13th Floor Elevators
CD review: As someone who owns more crusty garage punk than your average gal, something tells me most of the people who reviewed this disc just didn't get it. Let's see if I can do it justice. I played it for my boyfriend and he left me. So I got dressed up in my sluttiest outfit, went down to the local waterin' hole and found a new guy who can identify every automotive fluid by a taste test. My new man and I then killed my ex-boyfriend and pawned his teeth to buy matching leather jackets and beer - yeah, that's what kind of CD this is. Nobunny sounds like a retarded middle school Ramones cover band. You either love him and show it with creative insults, or you hate him and show it with lame insults.
|Band/album: Architect, Ghosts of the Saltwater Machines
Label: Black Market
For fans of: Misery Index, Converge, Norma Jean, the Casualties
CD review: Did you like the way Architect laid it on thick and heavy with last year's release All is not Lost? Okay, then you'll like Ghosts of the Saltwater Machines. With the heavy lyrics and raw production, it could be a slow motion punk album - the Casualties at half speed maybe. This album's monolithic sound virtually explodes from the speakers. The harsh vocals are comparable to Under The Running Boards/Calculating Infinity era Dillinger Escape Plan, and though it's nowhere near as technical as DEP the slow parts, laden with pulsating intensity make this disc quite outstanding.
|Band/album: Blackened, This Means War
Label: Think Fast
For fans of: Hatebreed, Terror, Madball, Down, Hell Yeah!
CD review: More powerful than the bands from which its members sprung, Blackened could be the metalcore album to kick your ass and melt your face. There's nothing feminine about it, but I know you gals are going to love the thick, chunky chops and bulky riffs. One problem I've always had with bands like Hatebreed and Madball is that they're too compressed and too over produced. Blackened has left the edges raw, making This Means War more abrasive, interesting, and more original than other albums in this genre. I have no problem recommending this to anyone who is into real hardcore.
|Band/album: Everything, Now!, Spatially Severed
Label: MFT
For fans of: Beck, David Bowie, Flaming Lips, Red Elvises, Foxy Shazam
CD review: Guys like Beck and David Bowie are few and far between. From time to time groups of these guys convene to form corny intellectuloid groups like Weezer, Pink Floyd, or Everything, Now! They ignore genres and scenes in favor of creating goofy music meant to be heard by a few dedicated weirdoes in small bars. A little "Ziggy Stardust" and a little "Just Like Buddy Holly", Spatially Severed makes light of some serious soul searching. And if you're the right kind of person this album might just speak to you in a way no other album can.
|Band/album: Feeding Fingers, Baby Teeth
Label: Stickfigure
For fans of: the Cure, the Rapture, Joy Division
CD review: Almost indistinguishable from the Cure at time, Feeding Fingers has the weight of the world on their shoulders. Baby Teeth is just as good as the Cure's Faith or The Top, but the real question is: will they be able to pull off a Disintegration or Wish? I do feel this band has more to offer fans than the Rapture. And while some people just might not be able to listen to a band that sounds this much like the Cure without it being the Cure, I like their sound. In the future I'd really like to see Feeding Fingers incorporate a little more aggression and post punk. Perhaps they can pick up where the first Rapture album left off. Sorry to turn this into a Cure review, but these guys really do sound just like the Cure.
|Band/album: Kivimetsan Druidi, Shadowheart
Label: Century Media
For fans of: yikes, operatic female folk symphonic metal
CD review: If you're going to spend eight hours a day in front of your computer playing Warcraft, Kivimetsan Druidi's Shadowheart is the perfect music to do it to. It's not just symphonic-metal, it's not just symphonic-folk-metal, it's symphonic-folk-metal with an operatic female vocalist at the helm. One minute you're in a concert hall listening to Carmen, the next minute you're leading a troop of bombastic Norsemen headfirst into a fight to the death battle for possession of J.R.R. Tolkien's soul.
|Band/album: Light This City, Stormchaser
Label: Prosthetic
For fans of: melodic thrash metal, At The Gates
CD review: To say Light This City is a female fronted metal band is an understatement. It's more accurate to call them a demon fronted metal band. Sure, a gal handles the vocals, but she could kill your father and all your uncles in a heartbeat. There's a lot more shred on Stormchaser than on previous releases, however, the band has upped the ante in the melody department as well. Few bands have matched aggression and melody as well as Light This City. Their departure from the scene leaves a void that will not be filled anytime soon.
|Band/album: Lightning Daze, Caught in a Frame
Label: Engineer
For fans of: Get Up Kids, Samiam, Radon, Knapsack
CD review: Musically, Caught in a Frame falls under the rudimentary indie rock sub-heading. The vocals are similar to the Get Up Kids, but the music is considerably less refined. The drummer on this album is off - way off - on timing, fills and cymbals. But it should be mentioned that this band has had the fortitude to stick together despite flaws. Where most bands would sell a member out just at the chance of getting signed - or for even less - these guys have staayed together since high school. I commend them for that.
|Band/album: Monikers, Wake Up
Label: Kiss Of Death
For fans of: Jawbreaker, Letherface, the Shook Ones, Dillinger Four
CD review: The following review is meant to be positive. Here's a bunch of unmotivated slackers making music for other like-minded individuals. The production couldn't be much worse if it was recorded by a deaf retard in a truck stop bathroom, however, the production actually adds to this album's overall personality. The vocals are grittier and dirtier than Jawbreaker and the guitar melodies are equally catchy. To say a band is equal in any aspect to Jawbreaker is a compliment. I've already said too much, let's stop here. Click on the album cover to hear for yourself.
|Band/album: The Serious Geniuses, You Can Steal the Riffs, but You Can't Steal the Talent
Label: Kiss Of Death
For fans of: indie punk, Pavement, the Ergs, Jawbreaker
CD review: The riffs on this album are stolen from Jawbreaker, but they haven't gotten around to stealing the talent yet. They play very basic indie punk that's slightly poppy with semi-raspy vocals.
|Band/album: Useless ID, The Lost Broken Bones
Label: Suburban Home
For fans of: Bayside, Alkaline Trio, No Use For A Name
CD review: With all the makings of a tight punk band only slightly darker and more demented, Useless ID's The Lost and Broken Bones should appeal to fans of Bayside and Alkaline Trio. They have the potential to reach fans looking for something more lugubrious or sanguine than your average Bad Religion or Green Day album can offer. These songs are unnerving and intense, but they don't have quite the same sound of Rise Against or The Gaslight Anthem.
|Band/album: Virgins, Miscarriage
Label: Kiss Of Death
For fans of: New Mexican Disaster Squad, Circle Jerks, TSOL
CD review: Phil, if you're reading this, HI!!! Made up of ex-members of New Mexican Disaster Squad and some of the most famous guys to never leave the Orlando area, Virgins sounds like everything I grew up listening to. Their sound is remarkably similar to New Mexican Disaster Squad. For those of you who don't know NMDS, it sounds like a really melodic Black Flag. Think of "TV Party" run through the fun machine. The rough vocals will piss off your parents, the muffled but loud instrumentation will drive your roommates crazy; but if these people don't like your music it might be time to move out.
|Band/album: Woe of Tyrants, Kingdom of Might
Label: Metal Blade
For fans of: Skeletonwitch, Testament, Toxic Holocaust
CD review: Oh my God, this band actually is as good as their press sheet says. Whatever you heard about them shredding, ripping, tearing or any other verb ending in "ing" is true. According to their press sheet they're also decent human beings who have fused a positive message into their evil-ass sounding music. They could tell me to beat my dog and I'd still listen, this really is good stuff. I'm inclined to compare them to modern thrash because of the fast guitar work and growls. But there's more to it than just the thrash. This album is a step in the right direction for metal in general.

Learn more about the latest technologies, innovations and features that set Yamaha boats apart.
There's a Yamaha dealer near you ready to help you find your new boat.
Many Yamaha dealers have demo programs so you can experience a Yamaha Boat first hand. Find one near you.
Yamaha boat engines have long led the industry in reliability, performance, and fuel efficiency.
Yamaha hulls are engineered for peak performance, stylish design, and freedom on the water.
A key distinction: The hull of every Yamaha boat is designed in tandem with its power plant. No mix-and-match here.
Yamaha's Advanced Responsive Handling is a suite of technologies that provide maximum control, confidence and maneuverability at slow, medium and top speeds. This includes the all new Articulating Keel, as well as No Wake Mode and Thrust Directional Enhancer.
The Articulating Keel is a simple yet ingenious mechanism that serves as an extension of the boat's keel but with a back end that moves and tracks through the water in perfect relation to the jet pump nozzles. Steering response is immediate. Straight line tracking at any speed is effortless.
No Wake Mode, an important part of Yamaha's Advanced Responsive Handling, provides maximum control for the driver at a variety of slow speeds, maximizing pump thrust and enhancing all around maneuverability of the boat at slow speeds.
Another key aspect to Yamaha's Advanced Responsive Handling is the award winning Thrust Directional Enhancer, or TDE. This Yamaha exclusive technology directs the water thrust at an optimal angle.
Yamaha's 24-foot boats in 2016 all come equipped with Yamaha Quiet Cruise, a new ground up complete platform based system of sound dampening that creates a quiet, comfortable ride for all on board. Yamaha Quiet Cruise significantly controls the amount of engine noise and vibration that enters the cabin to allow the driver and passengers to engage in conversation at all speeds and enjoy their surroundings.
The benefits of owning a Yamaha extend well beyond the exciting weekends spent with friends and family. Every Yamaha comes recreation-ready, fully-equipped with a total package of amenities that brings the good life to life on the water.
Yamaha Boats are the easiest to own in the industry for a number of reasons. One important reason is the ease of towing. Yamaha boats weigh significantly less than the competition, in some cases up to 1000 pounds less. This makes towing easier and expands the range of vehicles and in water lifts that can accommodate Yamaha boats.
New large wet storage area behind hinged seatbacks provides even more room for towables and other large items.
Yamaha's award-winning two-tiered swim platform sits just inches above the water to provide the perfect launching pad for wakesports or simply soaking up the sun.
Yamaha boats are designed for fun, performance and comfort, but don't forget about style. Every Yamaha comes standard with removable carpet that's practical, convenient, and yes—looks sharp.
This unequaled family boating experience comes fully equipped with a Total Package of premium amenities including a Bimini™ top at no extra cost.
The simple design of Yamaha's internal propulsion system offers the benefit of less maintenance time and expense compared to an inboard or stern drive boat. Winterization of a Yamaha boat involves only basic service. Year-round use of your Yamaha boat is easy as the internal propulsion system is virtually maintenance free, requiring only simple annual maintenance and fluid refills.

In Our Best Interest: Women, Financial Literacy and Credit Card Behavior
Submitted by asklar on Thu, 04/26/2012 - 10:21am
Prepared by the FINRA Investor Education Foundation, this study finds that women with low levels of financial literacy were more likely to engage in costly credit card behaviors than men with low financial literacy. The findings suggest that increasing financial literacy can improve credit card management and reduce or eliminate gender-based differences in credit card behavior (released April 2012). The study is based on data from the 2009 National Financial Capability Study.

I have recently bought a Billion 7202 4 port router to connect 2 PC's to
the net.
Previously I had a 4 port SAR715 router to do the same.
Now then, with the SAR router I had to enter each IP address of the 2
PC's and also that of the gateway. No problem; each machine got on the
net and each machine could see each other and share files etc.
Now with the Billion router, I had to select 'Obtain IP address

Summer Internships: Voice-overs in Delhi
By Stephanie Ciccarelli
June 12, 2006
Add-on courses? Voice-over internships in India on the rise.
The Hindustan Times had an interesting article about what their trendy teens are up to this summer.
Instead of working 'summer' jobs, many college students are pursuing internships in career fields, including voice-overs as an initiative by Delhi University colleges to help students gain hands on experience called add-on courses.
"Internships are part of our add-on courses like journalism. Students of other short-term courses like advertising and banking also visit advertising agencies and banks to see people in action." said Meera Ramchandran, principal, Gargi College.
"The students may or may not get stipend for these internships but they do get experience in these organisations," she said. "Most of our students do summer jobs such as voice-overs and editing."
Well, there you have it!
Do you know of other 'add-on' educational summer internship programs for broadcast and voice-overs like the opportunities mentioned in India?
Have you participated in a voice-over internship or do you coordinate one?

CheersPosted by:
Hi Charleston,
Thank you for your comment. The internships are part of add-on courses offered by some colleges related to the Delhi University.
There are likely similar opportunities available in your area. I would recommend that your friends contact their academic counsellors for more information.
Best wishes,

Glad to read this interesting article... I'm not studying, but working for myself.
Can you help me and tell me how I can get about to doing voice overs as a freelancer?
Thanks & cheers!

I want to find voice over jobs but how I don't know how.Posted by:
Hi Shibani and Megha,
Thank you for your comments.
The first thing you should do to find voice over work is to make sure that you have a solid voice over demo that you can market yourself with.
This demo should be in MP3 format saved at 128 kbps or higher. CD quality is best.
The next step is getting your voice out there on the web.
What can you do next?
Sign up for a Guest account at Voices.com to increase your visibility. You'll get a free website and enough room to upload your voice samples.

Hi everyone,
If you are hoping to get an internship in India, I encourage you to connect with institutions and companies in India.
I originally wrote this article to highlight add-on courses at a particular university.
You won't find an internship through this article alone.
Thank you and good luck!

High performance automatic alignment and power stabilization system for a multikilowatt CO2 laser63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143295View Description Hide Description
A beam profile sensor for use in an automatic alignment and power stabilization system for a multikilowatt CO2 laser is described. An inexpensive pyroelectric array is used in conjunction with a diamond machined rotating wand, to provide on‐line samples of the laser beam. Interface circuits utilize the multiple outputs derived from the detector array for precise monitoring and control of the laser's output radiation. Data from a 5‐kW CO2 laser are presented to characterize the response of this new beam profile sensor to major perturbations in the optical cavity and lasing gas chemistry. The device has demonstrated exceptional performance in the maintenance of both mode quality and optical power level.
Differential optical absorption spectrometer for measuring atmospheric trace gases63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143296View Description Hide Description
The construction of a differential optical absorptionspectrometer (DOAS) is described. The instrument was designed for making automated measurements, with relatively high detection sensitivities, of important tropospherictrace gases, and with the ability to operate in rugged environments without frequent attention. Major innovative features of the instrument include a retroreflector to fold the light path, a diode array detector, and computer‐controlled operation of the entire instrument package. The advantages of these modifications with respect to previously reported designs are discussed in detail. This DOAS has been employed since 1989 to measure NO3 (1 ppt), NO2 (0.6 ppb), HONO, O3, and CH2O (0.8 ppb), where the mixing ratios in parentheses indicate the detection limits over a 5 km path length and 4 min integration time, for the species where these could be determined.
Robust improvement in the signal‐to‐noise of a laser fluorosensor through selectively averaging signals63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143297View Description Hide Description
Signals acquired with a laser fluorosensor are composed of the fluorescence of the object and noises. The average of n signals theoretically has the signal‐to‐noise ratio (S/N) which is √n times higher than the S/N of the single signal, provided that the fluorescence remains constant from signal to signal and that the noises are independent of each other. In practice, the sources of noise in the signals are often correlated with each other, leading to S/N improvement below the theoretical one. In this paper a procedure is proposed and applied in a laser fluorosensor to obtain better S/N. It is shown that the average signal can have better S/N if the signals with the correlated noises are selectively discarded by averaging many signals. This procedure can be advanced for improving S/N of any multi sample averager.
A new‐type antenna for continuous gravitational radiation63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143298View Description Hide Description
A new‐type disk antenna has been developed to search for continuous gravitational waves emitted from millisecond and submillisecond pulsars. The antenna not only has a wide tunable range of the eigenfrequency that covers down to almost half of the original frequency of the quadrupole mode, but also is easily tuned to an objective frequency with an accuracy of 4×10−5 at 4.2 K. The mechanical quality factor has reached 3.0×107 at 4.2 K in an antenna made of Al5056.
A general method for determination of Brillouin linewidths by correction for instrumental effects and aperture broadening: Application to high‐pressure diamond anvil cell experiments63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143299View Description Hide Description
A general method for determining true acoustic‐mode linewidths from Brillouin scattering data is presented. The method is specifically applied to diamond anvil cell experiments to obtain accurate hypersonic attenuation data at high pressure. This work was motivated by the noticeable lack of acoustic attenuation data at high pressure in the literature and by our own attempts to obtain relaxation data from Brillouin experiments in the diamond anvil cell. A detailed discussion of both instrumental and finite aperture contributions to the measured acoustic‐mode linewidth is given, as well as specific algorithms for calculating these effects. Fits to Brillouin scattering spectra obtained at high pressures in different organic liquids are shown. Finally, a discussion is given of experimental details for obtaining accurate Brillouin linewidths in high‐pressure diamond anvil cell experiments.
A normal incidence vacuum ultraviolet emission spectrometer63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143300View Description Hide Description
A compact, normal incidence vacuum ultraviolet (VUV)fluorescencespectrometer for use with both electron and photon excitation in the energy range of 15–40 eV was built and tested. This 1‐m concave grating spectrometer is described together with the performance of its microchannel plate‐charge coupled device detector system. Results of the calibration of the system at the SURF‐II synchrotron light source at the National Institute of Standards and Technology are given. Initial results of experiments using both photon and electron excitation are also presented.
Spin‐polarized photoemission spectroscopy of magnetic surfaces using undulator radiation63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143301View Description Hide Description
A beamline has been established at the National Synchrotron Light Source to perform angle‐resolved photoemission experiments on magnetic surfaces with spin sensitivity. The system has two novel features: it uses a miniature electron‐spin polarization analyzer and it also uses synchrotron radiation from an undulator rather than a bending magnet.
Improvement of sensitivity of photothermal deflection spectroscopy by a double pass method63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143302View Description Hide Description
In order to improve the sensitivity of photothermal deflection spectroscopy, we propose a double pass method, in which a pump beam is passed twice through the sample using a total reflector set behind the sample. A one‐dimensional theoretical analysis of this method is developed and is verified by the measurement results of Si and InP wafers. Also, it is shown theoretically and experimentally that this method can determine lower optical absorption coefficients than conventional ones.
Atomic force microscope with integrated optical microscope for biological applications63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143303View Description Hide Description
Since atomic force microscopy (AFM) is capable of imaging nonconducting surfaces, the technique holds great promises for high‐resolution imaging of biological specimens. A disadvantage of most AFMs is the fact that the relatively large sample surface has to be scanned multiple times to pinpoint a specific biological object of interest. Here an AFM is presented which has an incorporated inverted optical microscope. The optical image from the optical microscope is not obscured by the cantilever. Using a XY stage to move the sample, an object is selected with the optical microscope and an AFM image of the selected object can be obtained. AFM images of chromosomes and K562 cells show the potential of the microscope. The microscope further enables a direct comparison between optically observed features and topological information obtained from AFM images.
Fabrication of ultrasmall tunnel junctions by electron‐beam lithography63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143304View Description Hide Description
Fabrication of a variety of ultrasmall tunneling structures is presented for possible applications in single electronics. Two main structures are described: (i) arrays of nanometer‐scale metal dots and (ii) single and multiple linear tunnel junctions formed by overlapping lines. Very large, uniform particle arrays were fabricated by electron‐beam lithography (EBL) with particle diameters as small as 25 nm. The advantage of our dot array system is its high degree of uniformity and very small junction size coupled with the use of isolated particles to reduce stray capacitance effects. Single and multiple linear tunnel junctions were fabricated by EBL using single‐layer resist and angled evaporations. Our fabrication technique differs from previous ones in its ability to create very small tunnel junctions without the need for multilayer resist systems or precise knowledge of the angle of evaporation.
Histogramming data acquisition system for an (e,2e) coincidence experiment63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143305View Description Hide Description
A four‐dimensional histogramming data acquisition system has been developed for use on an 80386 IBM‐compatible computer. The method has a large data storage capacity providing good experimental resolution and system flexibility. A custom‐built analog‐to‐digital board generates a memory address in hardware from the incoming data which permit the use of a simple and elegant histogramming algorithm. The system is used to collect and analyze data from (e,2e) experiments. Results from coplanar symmetric (e,2e) experiments on argon, at an incident energy of 3 keV, are presented to demonstrate the performance of the instrument. The method is applicable to experiments where data from several sources have to be combined and then histogrammed in real time.
Inexpensive plasma discharge source for molecular emission spectroscopy with application to 15N analysis63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143306View Description Hide Description
The assaying of nitrogen isotopeabundance using emission spectroscopy commonly requires a plasmadischarge in a sample of N2 gas at low pressure (∼0.5 kPa) in a sealed glass tube. Expensive high‐power (≳20 W) radio‐frequency or microwave amplifiers are often used for this purpose. However, with correct design, a simple and inexpensive, single transistor, 100 MHz, 1 W oscillator can be used to produce a bright plasmadischarge in a low‐pressure sample of nitrogen in a 6 mm diameter by 10 cm tube. The device utilizes optimal impedance matching to minimize the power requirements. The principles and limitations of the matching are outlined, and a simple feedback circuit is also described which, with the aid of a phototransistor, enables the emission intensity to be controlled. Ignition of discharge by friction or with the help of a simple piezoelectric gas lighter is also described, and construction details are given.
Performance characteristics of a microwave plasma source using an axial mirror and multipole magnetic fields63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143307View Description Hide Description
The performance characteristics of a microwave plasma source are presented. The plasma source consists of two chambers: chamber 1 generates a high‐density plasma over which a magnetic field is applied at electron cyclotron resonance condition or greater, and chamber 2 makes the plasma uniform in its lower region by surrounding the peripheral region with magnetic multipole line‐cusp fields. Plasma parameters were measured with a movable Langmuir probe located 1 cm above a plasma grid which is attached at the bottom of chamber 2. The dependence of plasma parameters on the magnetic field configuration, gas pressure and microwave power were examined, and radial distributions were measured. Uniform high‐density plasmas over a 9‐cm‐diam area were produced on the plasma grid in a suitable magnetic field configuration, and uniformity was maintained over a wide pressure range. The uniform density region was determined by the magnetic multipole fields existing in chamber 2's peripheral region. The ion beam current density evaluated from the extracted ion beam correlated well with the ion saturation current density estimated from the plasma parameters.
E‐plane horn excitation of slow wave structures for obtaining high‐density electron cyclotron resonance plasmas63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143308View Description Hide Description
This paper describes a new method of exciting slow wave structures (SWS) for obtaining high‐density electron cyclotron resonanceplasmas. The electric field component corresponding to the slow wave mode (SWM) of SWS is excited by an E‐plane horn antenna. The special features of the microwave transmission line are the stable tuning for a given antenna and no requirement for water cooling on any of the components. Two types of SWS, a helical coil and a slotted line antenna, are studied, and the experiments are carried out in nitrogen and argon. The plasma producing capability is examined for these systems in the region w ce ,w pe ≳w rf , where w ce , w pe , and w rf correspond to electron cyclotron, plasma, and microwave frequencies, respectively. A high‐density, large‐diameter plasma (n 0∼5×1011 cm−3; diameter ∼8.0 cm) could be obtained and the plasma could be maintained in the region 1≤w ce /w rf ≤2.
In situ calibration of neutron detectors on TEXTOR63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143309View Description Hide Description
Neutron yield measurements are performed at the Jülich Tokamak experiment TEXTOR with different detectors located around the Tokamak and on center axis above the shielding roof. Due to the large structure of the machine and the extended diagnostic equipment, both virgin and scatteredneutrons are detected. To prepare a Bonner sphere of appropriate response, the shape of the degraded neutron spectrum was determined with a spherical ionization chamberin situ. These investigations have been enlarged under quasi‐real conditions at the accelerator facility of the Physikalisch‐Technische Bundesanstalt in Braunschweig with a set of Bonner spheres used as a spectrometer. For the calibration the plasmaneutron source is simulated by two point sources,238Pu/B and 252Cf. The sources are moved around the TEXTOR vessel along the position of the magnetic axis.
A low‐energy reactive‐ion gun using an ECR ion source and acceleration‐deceleration system63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143310View Description Hide Description
A low‐energy reactive‐ion gun has been developed as a sputtering gun for high‐depth‐resolution analysis. It consists of an electron cyclotron resonanceion source and an acceleration‐deceleration system. The current density, the energy distribution, and the amount of impurity particles were measured to characterize the ion gun. The current density was estimated by measuring the ion current and the beam diameter for various ion beams. The maximum ion current density at 100 eV is 8.42 μA/cm2, and this means that it takes 19 s to sputter atoms on the monolayer of 1015 atoms/cm2 assuming that each ion sputters an atom. The energy width calculated from the full width at half maximum of the energy distribution was very narrow, 2 eV for the 15‐eV beam. The neutralization efficiencies evaluated by measuring secondary‐ion emission under bombardment by only neutral particles were 2.9, 0.5, and 0.33 for 1000‐eV Ar+, O2 +, and BF2 +, respectively. This order corresponds to the decreasing ionization potentials of the ion species.
Negative‐ion formation from positive ion by two‐electron transfer from an alkali‐metal target63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143311View Description Hide Description
To examine two‐electron transfer producing negative ions from positive ions, an apparatus using an alkali‐metal target has been developed. Positive ions formed by electron impact in an ion source collided with alkali‐metal vapor in a target chamber. Negative ions formed by two‐electron transfer have been analyzed with a single‐focusing mass spectrometer. Precursor positive ions and product negative ions have been identified from the apparent masses in the negative‐ion spectra. Using the target density dependence of the negative‐ion intensity, the processes of negative‐ion formation were determined to be double‐electron transfer in one collision or successive single‐electron transfer in two collisions. The cross section of these processes has been estimated from the peak area of positive‐ and negative‐ion spectra and the target density evaluated using the vapor‐pressure curve as a function of the temperature of the alkali‐metal cell. A cross section for He−‐ion formation in the Cs target with successive single‐electron transfer have been evaluated to be 1.40×10−30±0.2 cm4 at a collision energy of 2.0 keV, which showed the fair agreement with the values reported by Donnally and Thoeming [Phys. Rev. 159, 87 (1967)]. The double‐electron transfer cross section for C2 −‐ion formation from a C2 + ion with a Cs target has been evaluated as 7.03×10−18±0.1 cm2 at 3.0 keV. For O−‐ion formation from O2 + ions, four broad peaks were observed due to the kinetic energy releases at dissociation which were 7.3, 3.4, 1.1, and 0.014 eV at full width at half maximum. Since the kinetic energy releases of the broad peaks corresponded with those by Peterson and Bae [Phys. Rev. A 30, 2807 (1984)], the peak extents have been explained as the dissociations of the excited neutral formed from exothermic neutralization. This two‐electron transfer from an alkali‐metal target offers a good advantage for the determination of the dissociation mechanism for excited neutral particles by means of the negative‐ion detection method.
Source for excited states of alkali atoms and clusters using diffusion through a thin graphite foil63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143312View Description Hide Description
A molecular beamsource used for the production of excited and ionized clusters of Cs and other materials is described. This source is closed, with the emitting graphite foil as an integral part of the source enclosure. The foil is kept at 1100–1500 K by radiation heating. From the foil, excited clusters (Cs)* n with broad distributions of n, and excited Rydberg atoms Cs* are emitted. These highly excited states can be field ionized at field strengths of less than 400 V/cm. At a Cs reservoir temperature of 400 K, total field ionized flux densities up to 1015 ions cm−2 s−1 (3×10−4 A cm−2) are found.
An ion detector for imaging two‐dimensional velocity distributions63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143313View Description Hide Description
The design and performance of a novel ion detector is described. The detector produces a two‐dimensional image which displays the time‐of‐flight distribution of a pulsed packet of ions. Pulse sequencing within the detector allows for simultaneous mass and velocity resolution of the detected ions. The image capturing hardware combines long‐term signal integration with single‐ion detection in order to provide a wide dynamic range in ion sensitivity.
Compact ion/electron analyzer for spaceflight or laboratory use63(1992); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1143314View Description Hide Description
A space qualified 260° spherical plate electrostatic analyzer has been developed as a plasma diagnostic tool. The use of nested spheres and unusually shaped microchannel plates has resulted in a sensor capable of measuring simultaneously the three‐dimensional populations of ions and electrons in a plasma. High‐current microchannel plates and a new packaging of a hybrid preamplifier discriminator are combined with an uncommon high‐voltage circuit. The combination of these features yields an analyzer that is compact and lightweight, efficient in its power consumption, and has a broad dynamic range.

Boomtown Britain
The wealth boom in Britain seems to be attracting growing media attention these days, as Russian oligarchs, Indian metal tycoons and finance types create a new London elite.
Following up on a recent feature in the Times of London, the Washington Post weighs in with an article by Mary Jordan and Karla Adam on what they call the "haves and have-yachts" of Britain.
As Tony Travers of the London School of Economics says in the article: "There is a great deal of money sloshing about."
The article cites statistics from Datamonitor that there are 1 million people in Britain with liquid assets of $400,000 or more, up from 690,000 in 2003. All that new wealth has been good for business at tailors, jewelers, personal concierge services and luxury-car dealers. One concierge service handled a request for an elephant-shaped cake studded with rubies and emeralds and a request for a parachute trip over Victoria Falls.
Yet, as in the U.S., the wealth boom in Britain is sparking a political backlash. Peter Hain, a member of Tony Blair's cabinet, called the recent bonuses in the City "grotesque" and said the recipients should give more to charity.
This is all further proof that just as the forces creating the wealth boom are global in scope, so too is the political reaction.

Sweeting, T. and Kharroubi, S. (2005) Application of a predictive distribution formula to Bayesian computation for incomplete data models. Statistics & Computing, 15 (3). pp. 167-178. ISSN 1573-1375Full text not available from this repository.
We consider exact and approximate Bayesian computation in the presence of latent variables or missing data. Specifically we explore the application of a posterior predictive distribution formula derived in Sweeting And Kharroubi (2003), which is a particular form of Laplace approximation, both as an importance function and a proposal distribution. We show that this formula provides a stable importance function for use within poor man's data augmentation schemes and that it can also be used as a proposal distribution within a Metropolis-Hastings algorithm for models that are not analytically tractable. We illustrate both uses in the case of a censored regression model and a normal hierarchical model, with both normal and Student t distributed random effects. Although the predictive distribution formula is motivated by regular asymptotic theory, it is not necessary that the likelihood has a closed form or that it possesses a local maximum.

There's no doubt about it, burial space in Marietta's cemeteries is shrinking.
"The city's cemeteries are filling up," said City Councilman Harley Noland. "There are no more plots for sale at Mound Cemetery, and Oak Grove is nearly full. The only available space there is on the backside where the hillside is steep and there have been some landslips.
"We need to find more burial sites and to start thinking about it now," he said.
Article Video
Marietta's Oak Grove Cemetery has very few plots left.
Marietta currently owns three cemeteries, Mound Cemetery on Fifth Street, Oak Grove Cemetery on Sixth Street and Harmar Cemetery on the city's west side.
Burial sites are no longer sold at the Mound and Harmar graveyards.
"Cremation sites are available in Mound Cemetery, and there are a couple of sections at Oak Grove for gravesites, but one full section of that cemetery slipped away a couple of years ago," said Tom Kunz, foreman of the city facilities department, which is responsible for the cemeteries.

SAM SHAWVER The Marietta Times
A worker cuts grass near a newly dug gravesite at Marietta's Oak Grove Cemetery. Limited space in the municipal graveyard is prodding city officials to consider the possibility of opening a new burial ground at Jackson Park.
"I think the old Jackson Park area would be a prime location for a new city cemetery," he said.
Noland agrees.
"That's a parcel of land being totally under-utilized," he said. "But it's high out of the flood plain, has electricity and plumbing, and it even has a picnic shelter that could be made into a chapel.
Fact Box
Marietta's burial grounds include
- Mound Cemetery, Fifth Street: Cremation sites available, burial plots no longer being sold.
- Oak Grove Cemetery, Sixth Street: Cremation sites and limited number of burial plots available.
- Harmar Cemetery, Wood Street: No cremation sites or burial plots being sold.
"The park could be developed into a cemetery for not a lot of money," Noland said.
Originally the site of the municipal swimming pool, the park, located off Cisler Drive, is now basically a storage area.
"The safety-service director calls it a 'laydown yard' - anything that needs to be laid down is put there," Noland said, noting that includes equipment no longer used, chunks of concrete, and similar items.
He said once that material is cleared out, the park's flat hilltop could accommodate an estimated 1,000 gravesites that could be sold for around $1,200 each.
"That would generate $1.2 million that could be invested and used for maintenance and operations of the city cemeteries," Noland said.
Current burial plots in Oak Grove Cemetery are selling for around $550, including perpetual care.
Local funeral director Bill Peoples said Marietta has to plan ahead for its cemeteries.
"The city basically hasn't opened a new cemetery since it was founded - that's 200 years ago," he said. "Other cities have kept pace by opening more cemeteries over the years.
"Marietta has continued to add parks, pave roads and restore buildings, but the city has overlooked the need for future cemetery space," Peoples added. "And it seems a new cemetery could generate income to keep the others maintained."
Noland said he would like to see the Marietta Cemeteries Commission reinstated, a board established in 1974 to oversee the municipal graveyards.
"It's a legislative body already laid out for this purpose, but the commission hasn't met for more than 20 years," he said.
There are other burial grounds in and around town, not owned by the city.
St. Marys Catholic Church operates two cemeteries in Marietta.
"The oldest one is located across Fourth Street from St. Marys School, but there are no plots available there," said Monsignor John Michael Campbell.
"We also have a beautiful cemetery on the western end of Montgomery Street," he said. "We've restored that area over the last six years, and there's a lot of room as we own the whole hillside."
Campbell said the church eventually plans to build a mausoleum in the graveyard.
Outside of Marietta, many of the county's townships maintain their own cemeteries.
Salem Township's Universal Cemetery, located on Ohio 821, was down to less than 40 double plots until trustees expanded it onto adjacent land last year, said Ernest Biehl, a former trustee. The land was cleared and re-seeded and now has space for more than 250 double plots, he said.
Marcella Fleming, the Salem Township fiscal officer, said a double plot costs $650 for township residents and $1,000 for those who live outside the township.
Warren Township trustees oversee five cemeteries, two of which still have space available, said Trustee Jeffrey Knowlton.
"We've got quite a bit of space available at the Tunnel Cemetery," he said, noting there are also empty plots at the Gravel Bank Cemetery.
Since most of the people who get buried in the township's cemeteries are township residents, Knowlton doesn't anticipate any problems with space. However, if there are an influx of burials from outside the township, it could become an issue, he said.
A four-person lot in a Warren Township cemetery costs $500 for township residents and $2,000 for non-residents.

Standard and Poors RatingsXpress Credit Research provides in-depth coverage of international corporates, financial institutions, insurance companies, utilities, sovereigns and structured finance programs. RatingsXpress Credit Research lets users determine the credit rating of holdings and identify key factors underlying an issuer's creditworthiness, distinguishes the different risk exposures for new and existing deals, and provides an understanding of how their analysts interpret key regulatory, political and environmental events and their economic impact.
This product consists of a Summary Analysis: Bi-annual (at least). An abbreviated analysis containing Standard & Poor's issuer credit ratings as of the time the article was published. The analysis includes a rating rationale - the basis on which the rating was assigned - and an outlook section if the issuer is not on CreditWatch. Financial statistics are not included.
The rating on Abertis Infraestructuras S.A., one of Spain's largest infrastructure operators, is underpinned by the company's business risk profile, which Standard & Poor's Ratings Services views as "excellent," and its 3,747-kilometer toll road network--mostly located in Spain and France--which generated about 86% of 2008 consolidated EBITDA. Network traffic is mature, and capital-expenditure needs are fairly manageable in our view, leading to what we see as strong cash flow generation. Moreover, we view the regulatory framework as supportive in Spain and France. Lastly, the company's first-quarter 2009 announcement that it had entered into a period of consolidation, with no material acquisitions planned, has led us to believe that Abertis' historically intensive expansion appetite may have come to an end, which...

The Elkins Salvation Army office is usually a mecca of activity, especially during the Christmas season. Volunteers at that location are busy gathering and bundling Christmas gifts for less fortunate children in the Elkins area.
Families seeking help with children's presents for Christmas may complete an application with the Salvation Army in October or early November. Those who qualify are placed on the Salvation Army's Angel Trees, located this year at Kmart and Walmart. A total of 139 children and 16 teens were placed on the tree for adoption.
Volunteer Lora Hedrick said community members, businesses and organizations adopt the angels. She said she started volunteering for the Salvation Army because of the Angel Tree Project.

Volunteers at the Elkins Salvation Army prepare gifts to deliver from their Angel Tree Tuesday. Dixie Martin, Beverly Hammer and Lora Hedrick bundle presents for the 139 children listed on the trees.
"I called and asked if they needed help and have been here volunteering every since," Hedrick said. "That was four years ago."
"Folks pick an angel from the tree and purchase gifts for the child or teen for Christmas," Hedrick said. "We want to thank the community for their help. If it weren't for the community, these kids would not have a very Merry Christmas."
Hedrick said entire families are sometimes adopted.
"We have a gentleman in Charleston, originally from this area, who adopts a family each year," Hedrick said. "We also have a few local businesses that adopt families, but we could always use more help."
The Salvation Army also issues 60 food certificates for families for Christmas.
This Christmas season, red kettles and bell ringers are collecting for the Salvation Army's good work at Krogers, Walmart and Kmart in Elkins.
"Monies collected at the kettles are used through the year to help those in need," Hedrick said. "We appreciate the generosity of the community giving to our cause."
The Elkins Salvation Army operates a food pantry. It also assists with water, electric and gas bills. Help is also available for medicines and out of town doctor visits. The Salvation Army prepares bags for students at the Elkins Mountain School, personal care items for the Randolph County Homeless Shelter and personal care items for Women's Aid in Crisis.
"During the last storm and power outage, the Salvation Army had a cantina near the fire stations in the area," Hedrick said. "Volunteers served hot dogs, warm coffee and warm cocoa."
The Elkins Salvation Army is open on Tuesday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The office is located at 203 Randolph Ave. Additional information is available by calling 304-637-1173.
