In this course, you'll hone your problem-solving skills through learning to find numerical solutions to systems of differential equations. You'll write code in Python to fight forest fires, rescue the Apollo 13 astronauts, stop the spread of epidemics, and resolve other real-world dilemmas.
By the end of this course, you'll develop an intuition for the use of differential equations in the applied sciences. You'll also learn how to build mathematical models for systems of differential equations using a variety of techniques. Along the way, you'll learn how to translate mathematical expressions into Python code and solve some really cool problems!
You'll need a basic knowledge of programming in Python for this course, around the level of Intro to Computer Science. An understanding of Python packages, as discussed in Programming Foundations with Python, will also be helpful.
In addition, you'll need to feel comfortable with trigonometry at the high school level, as well as basic vector algebra. This class will primarily involve solving differential equations numerically rather than analytically, but some exposure to calculus and physics at the level of Intro to Physics wouldn't hurt.
Most of all, bring with you a love of learning and problem solving!

By Mr Mark Iacampo ( Hohenfels )May 3, 2012
HOHENFELS, Germany -- As first place winner of the poster presenters at this year's European Regional Junior Science and Humanities Symposium (JSHS) in Riedstadt, Hohenfels Middle/High School sophomore Clinton Schwartz will head to the National symposium in Washington, D.C., May 2-6.
Schwartz is one of three HMHS students who competed and placed in the highly competitive symposium last month. Juniors Tony Williams and Andrew Becker placed second and fourth, respectively, in the poster presentations.
One hundred fifty-nine students from across Department of Defense Dependent Schools-Europe began the competition in September 2011 . Over the next five months, students completed six incremental submissions, struggling even for the opportunity to compete.
"It's progressive, and a way to start weeding people out," explained HMHS science teacher Joyce Dusenberry. "What' they're looking for are original research projects that kids do. They have to form their hypothesis, set up their experiment, and basically collect data, analyze that data and come to a conclusion. And then they either present it as an oral presentation or they present it as a poster."
Based on an extensive paper that outlined their research, 11 students across DoDDS were invited to present their findings at the symposium orally, while another six were invited to create poster presentations.
"(HMHS) started out with about 12 and we actually had six that made it through the final stages, and out of the six, three were invited," said Dusenberry.
Dusenberry served as a mentor to the Hohenfels competitors and said she was very proud of all her students.
"They worked hard, they had good ideas and they followed through on the research," she said. "Everybody in Hohenfels who got invited, placed."
"The feeling was incredible when we found out that we all placed, and we all felt like winners," said Williams. "I left the symposium knowing that hard work pays off, and I am grateful that I was one of the few who were selected to attend."
Williams said he spent incalculable hours on his project, entitled "The difference of spatial ability between males and females." But he added that the increase in his self-confidence as well as improved teamwork skills, made all the hard work worth it.
Andrews, who studied the effects of wing design on lift-to-drag ratio, agreed that there was more to the symposium then awards and prize money.
"I got to see the experiments of my peers, and frankly some were mind-blowing with how complex and well-done they were," he said.
At the symposium, competitors also conducted experiments and visited laboratories and research facilities.
"We were there with like 40 crazy science people," Schwartz laughed. "We were doing experiments in groups comparing solar, wind and battery power and its effects and doing projects on that. It was really, really competitive. We had to do a power point presentation in 15 minutes on our findings. It was really cool to be in that environment with all those people working on science."
Schwartz said he knew immediately that his project would focus on the environment. As a seventh- grader in Washington, D.C., he became passionate about environmental issues while working as a volunteer for Congressman Gerald E. Connolly. Becoming involved with the environmental group, "The Climate Reality Project," Schwarz helped raise money and awareness for environmental issues.
"But since moving to Europe, I haven't really done much," he admitted while praising Germany's stance on the environment. "This project was my first opportunity to get down, roll my sleeves up, and physically do something that could make a difference."
Comparing the effects of natural and synthetic detergents on the environment, Schwartz hypothesized that synthetic detergents harm plant life, while what is marketed as natural would be virtually ineffective.
"When I was starting it, I thought maybe I should do something else because this was an obvious result," he said. "It turned out to be quite the opposite of what I was expecting. The synthetic detergent actually helped the plants grow, while the natural one killed them."
Schwartz learned that to be marketed as "natural" merely required a detergent to be carbon based. "But they have lots of bad stuff in them," he added. "Natural detergent has been found to change the gender of fish."
Schwartz will be attending the national symposium as a student representative for HMHS but will not be competing. Still, he has future plans for his research.
"I want to test some other detergents," he said. During his experiment, he learned that detergents from the 1950s were soap and alcohol based, and he plans on researching their impact on the environment.
"And if (they're not better) I want to experiment making my own detergent perhaps with a mix using some of the less harsh chemicals of modern detergents with the soap and alcohol ones," said Schwartz.

Get all the Kalil's!!!
Don't have the link but PFF posted another article on outside runs
We rank #1 in the league in D gap (outside the tackle) offense. 7 yards a carry and 10 TDs.
We need a guard and depending on Campbell a RT if Otah falls out as usual.Wharton was not very good protecting the pass.
If Otah comes back and expectations are that he will, Bell moves inside and we have a ton of beef on the right side. Hangartner takes over Wharton's place and it is all good. We have depth as well. No need for an OG or OT until next year at the earliest. Even if Otah struggles Bell will be improved at tackle and we have other guys who can compete for the guard position.
I think Otah will be fine.

Stickburner question...just curious.
Im wondering, with a stick burner, if you are using just wood to cook with, wont that make a LOT of smoke? Like thick white smoke? And wont this make the food too smokey? I know on my UDS, the smoke gets a little heavy when the fire hits my wood chunks...not a lot, but you can tell a difference.
I know nothing about this so please excuse my ignorance. I DO want a stickburner, though, and figured I need to learn as much as I can as soon as I can.
No, as long as you have a clean burning fire, you will still have sweet blue. Plenty of airflow, preheat your wood, and leave your exhaust open all the way are the keys to successful stickburning.
You want a small clean burning fire, which produces very little smoke. You don't want to load the thing up with wood and then control the temps downward by choking it off, that would give you the thick smoke. You want the wood fire to get all the air IT wants so it burns clean, and add a little more fuel as needed. You can even pre-heat the wood on top of the firebox to get it near combustion prior to adding it too.:wink:
lots of good info on stickburning in the roadmap. Here is a good thread from said roadmap, http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7051
a cleanburning fire is one that burns evenly. everything in the firebox has reached combustion temps and is burning "cleanly". There is no heavy white smoke, just a sweet blue drifting out the exhaust. I'll try and find a video and link it so you can see exactly how its supposed to be.
Clean burning means like a campfire basically. A wood fire is a chemical reaction caused when the wood is heated to a high enough temperature that it begins to break down into smaller particles, primarily gasses, and a small amount of solids. If there is enough oxygen present as the gas escapes in this heat, it will ignite causing the flame, otherwise the gases are released in the air unburned (thick smoke). So a clean burning fire is one where the majority of the gasses produced from this chemical reaction are burned up in the heat as opposed to being released into the air, and over your food.
So the key (just to make sure) is air really. You want your fire to get all the air it wants to burn. The trick is, building the proper sized clean burning fire that puts your cooker at the temp you want to cook at.:wink: That's why you hear "small clean burning fire" a lot. A small fire burning real well will heat a pit up pretty good on most units.
sent you a pm with a link to view.
All per above is tremendous insight and advice;
fire management in a stickburner is a learned skill that takes time and patience for some- I know only from experience.
Also keep in mind each pit can be quite different so you will eventually figure out what is best for yours.
yeah.... Chris summed it up pretty well. just adding enough wood to keep it going is key, you really learn alot about fire management and air w/stick burners
In my stick burner, I only see blue smoke for a couple of min. after I add wood.......most of the time I dont see any smoke
Agree with above, the Roadmap is your friend. Actually, it's the farkin' bible. I'd be hard pressed to find a single question that isn't answered there. Sure, it takes work to read through and understand, and re-read it, and experiment. But it's well worth it.
now i will be paying closer attention to the color and amount of smoke... maybe smaller chunks of wood will help... I have seen white smoke too often

I feed birds with peanuts in the garden and some have dropped into the garden and sprouted in August within a few days. Not bad for the East Midlands, so I will try an earlier start next year.
Try growing peanuts in your garden! Often thought of as just a snack to be munched on at ball games or passed around at cocktail parties, peanuts are actually a healthful and nutritious food.
Whether eaten raw or roasted or spread on bread, peanuts are an excellent source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals; have no cholesterol; and contain more protein than many meats.
People often are surprised to find out that peanuts are not nuts but instead are actually seeds from a leguminous plant related to peas and beans. (See our plant guides for more about growing peas and beans.)
The plant is unique because its flowers grow aboveground yet the pods containing the seeds develop in the soil.
The yellow, pealike blossoms are self-pollinating. Once fertilized, the delicate petals fall away. The stalks (called pegs) just under the ovaries then elongate and bend toward the earth, growing into the soil. When underground, the ovary at the tip of each stalk enlarges to form a peanut pod.
Although considered a southern warm-weather crop, peanuts have been grown as far north as southern Canada.
Did You Know: It takes about 540 peanuts to make a 12-ounce jar of peanut butter.
Peanuts are thought to have originated in South America, where Peruvian Indians cultivated them at least 3,500 years ago. Besides valuing peanuts as food, the Peruvians considered them a status symbol and even used them as money—which isn't surprising when you consider how many of us still think that we are working for peanuts.
Ever wondered where popcorn comes from? It's also a seed plant! See our growing tips for popcorn.
I feed birds with peanuts in the garden and some have dropped into the garden and sprouted in August within a few days. Not bad for the East Midlands, so I will try an earlier start next year.
Is it late to plant peanut first week of June? Which type of weed control can I use for peanuts? Thank you.
May is usually the best time to plant peanuts, but it shouldn't be a problem if you plant them in the next few days. Use herbicides for weed control.
When is the best time to plant peanuts
We answer this question below. The best time to plant peanuts is generally in early May once the soil is warm and moist. If you don't live in a place that has these conditions, you're probably not in the right growing zone!
How Can I Plant Peanut?which Machinary Should I Use?
To grow peanuts, you do not need any special machinery if it's a small-scale farm or garden. You just need a LOT of sun and nice loose soil as well the peanut seeds which can be planted with their shells.
If you live in the northern regions, sow a peant seed (shell) about one-inch deep in a big peat pot about one month before the last frost. The soil outside needs to be at least 60 degrees to plant your seedling. In the warmer southern regions, you can just plant straight in the ground about 2 inches deep and 5 inches apart. Once seedlings grow up, thin plants to 10 inches apart.
So I found this peanut and it is a very weird stop. I don't know what to do with it and it is a big size peanut above ground. Any help what to do
i am interested to plant peanut . i need more information aBOUT IT,,
thank you for accpting me in this site,,
for how frequent do we need to spray pestcide on pnuts and what type of pestcides should we need to spray at which level of growth
First, avoid pests with healthy soil. Test and amend soil the fall before you plant. Peanuts prefer a pH between 5.8 and 6.2 so that you may need raise the soil pH with lime and many people also need to add calcium for good pod development. Talk to your local county extension about a soil test.
In terms of fertilizer, peanuts do not like direct fertilization as they can burn. Do not apply fertilizer with the seed or after planting. Instead, broadcast fertilizer over the ground and incorporate it into the soil. Speak to your county extension about what's best in your location.
In terms of pests and diseases: First keep the leaves dry when you water at the soil level to avoid leaf spot. You can also apply a fungicide. Insects can be either 1) left eaters or 2) below the soil. You need to identify the insect before assessing control. And speak to your local cooperative extension about pesticides that are legal in your area. We can't make recommendations here.
Where can I find good seeds??????
Hi, Armando: You will need fresh, unroasted peanuts to start -- check with your local grocer. Read "Growing Peanuts" above for how to proceed. Good luck!
Hey Armando - I bought 1/4lb of Tennessee Red, organic off Amazon from Everwilde Farms. Shelled 3, planted 9 seeds, 9 plants sprouted. Two weeks and I'm already hardening them off to transplant this weekend. We have squirrel issues, so I started them inside vs the container outside.
How long will peanuts be good for using in peanut brittle? I have 3 bags of raw peanuts in large plastic sealed bags of 5 lbs. each. My Dad bought them early this past summer in 2014. He really loves peanut brittle and wanted to make everyone some and keep some for himself. He got sick, not from the peanuts, and recently passed away and now I have these peanuts I don't want to necessarily throw away.
I like to try growing some peanuts on our farm/boarding academy. Please email me.
Thank you very much for the comments,questions& answers which I've read in this column and I learn so many things,actually I'm about to start plant peanuts so I just peet ,and at last I now get what I want. Once again thank you all for the tips and advice. you have a nice day,from Fiji,Amos saying, Good bye ,[MOCE]
Good Day,
we like to grow Peanut in Germany.
We have 150-180 frost free Days.
Can you give us infos to buy Penautseed
Thanks for your Time
God bless you
I am thinking of planting peanut plants in my garden. I noticed while tilling the soil that the soil is really rocky. Will this effect the growing process of the peanuts?
Peanuts do best in sandy, loam soil. Rocky or heavy soil can be a problem for the pegs to burrow into. Try to remove as much rocks as possible, and prepare the soil so that it is loose and crumbly. Or, you might consider using raised beds.
More info on 90 day varieties and where to get them please. The sooner the better...I am preparing the planting bed today!
I wish to ask if peanuts can be transplanted?Thanks and good day.
We've never done it, but why not. Transplant your peanut starts into sandy soil about 4 inches apart.
How deep do the peanuts grow into the ground? I know they only start about an inch, but the nuts themselves; how deep of soil do they need? I have some nice little starts growing indoors, but I will need to re pot them soon, as last frost is not for a month or more here in zone 5. Indoors, I can control temp, humidity, and light much better.
Plant seeds 2 to 3 inches deep in light textured sandy soils and 1½ to 2 inches deep in clay soils. Germination is best when the soil is a warm temperature between 68 and 95 °F.
It's good you've started early; keep in mind that peanuts often need over 100 days to reach maturity. Make sure that you leave enough time.
Yes, I have already planted them and they are doing great. I was asking how deep all together the soil needs to be. With peanuts; there are tendrils or branches that grow into the ground off of the main stem and the peanuts themselves grow under the dirt on those digging tendrils. I am needing to know how deep THOSE dig into the ground so I know how deep of a container to use. Thanks Much.
how much distance we should give them betweem them
Sow peanut seeds 1 to 1 1/2 inches deep and 6 to 8 inches apart. Row spacing for bunch types should be 24 inches and 36 inches for runner types.
What depth do the chutes dig in the ground when growing the nuts?
Peanuts have an extensive root system. How deep the roots grow depends on the variety of peanuts. In light sandy soil they can grow several feet deep. Peanuts prefer a loose, well-draining, well-tilled soil. Sandy soil mixed with compost works well. If your soil is hard, add some mulch and sand. Or, if your soil does not drain well, you could slightly elevate or mound the rows.
When hanging peanuts indoors to dry, are you suppose to hang them by the greens or by the roots?
To hang the peanuts to dry, lift the entire plant and hang it in the garage for a week or so. After shaking off excess soil, just hang them by twine. The important thing is that the plants are upside down. Many gardeners first pick the peanuts off the plant and air dry them in a warm, well-ventilated room.
After being harvested, why do peanuts need to be left on the plant to dried?
Will anything adverse happen to the peanuts if they have been picked off from the plant before they have been dried?
I'm not a peanut farmer, but grew up on a farm in Alabama. My dad grew a small patch every year just for the family. The reason the nuts should be dried still on the roots is because when harvested they are damp. If you break them off and pile them in a bucket where they touch and can't breath they will rot before they dry.
i picked my peanuts off the vine first.. now what do i need to do?
There are 90 day varieties being grown in Ontario. The American peanut industry, based in Georgia and Texas, don't want you to know this, and these short-season varieties are not available for import into the US. You'll have to smuggle your own.
I am in central Illinois and am interested in more info on the 90 day varieties. I have friends coming next week from Toronto and may ask them to bring some, if I have info on where to tell them to get them. I am preparing a bed for them now and was planning on planting some raw peanuts I bought at Walmart. Would much prefer to go the 90 day route and not worry so about growing season and seed quality/variety. Thanks!
Can you plant potatoes and peanuts together?
If I plant them on the first week of June will the produce
Boiling peanuts need at least 90 to 100 days to reach maturity. Dry peanuts need about 140 days. Plant anytime between April and late June; however, planting after June 1 will not allow enough time for dry peanuts to reach maturity. The ideal time for planting peanuts is the first week of May when the soil is warm and moist. Germination is best between 68 and 95 °F.
Thank you for the tip on growing peanuts. My plants are doing well. One question I have...after harvest how do I keep seeds for the next planting season?
Thank you
The peanut seed is the peanut itself. Some folks prefer to leave the peanuts in their shells so that they stay protected. Others say peanuts store best by washing them, drying them, shelling them, then storing them in a glass container in the freezer.
Whatever you do, they must stay very dry (down to 4 or 5 percent moisture) and not at room temp or weevils will destroy them. If dry, they can store for many years.

Just curious how much you pay for preschool? NOT daycare. Is it church or private preschool?
Preschool costs
I never checked the cost of private preschool, she's only been in pre-k this year.

My Polish stash/addiction/wishlist.
My daughter goes M-F for 2.5 hours and the cost is $345 a month. We pay another $17.50 a week for transportation. They pick her up right in front of the house and I can have her dropped off at home, daycare, a friends house, etc.

Ours averages $100/month for 5 hours a week. Not worth it IMO which I why I've never done it. Kids were just fine.
2003 - 2006 - 2009
very similar to yours...
Just enrolled DS in church preschool for this coming school year. 3 days a week from 9 to 12:45 for $252/mo.
Also a church preschool, 3 days/week from 9-1 for $260/mo.

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) — Bidding for a third consecutive U.S. Open title, Serena Williams moved into the fourth round by beating 52nd-ranked Varvara Lepchenko 6-3, 6-3 Saturday.
The No. 1-ranked and No. 1-seeded Williams has faced American opponents in all three of her matches this week while extending her overall winning streak at Flushing Meadows to 17.
Williams had some trouble dealing with the whipping wind in Arthur Ashe Stadium but eventually took control against Lepchenko, a 2012 Olympic teammate and occasional practice partner.
Williams, a 17-time Grand Slam singles champion, is hoping to avoid her first season since 2006 without reaching at least one major final. She lost in the fourth round at the Australian Open, second round at the French Open, and third round at Wimbledon.

GOSHEN — The second defendant in the January shooting death of Jared Plante in the City of Newburgh was arraigned Friday on charges, including first-degree murder and robbery.
Jacquelle James, 21, entered a "not guilty" plea through his newly appointed lawyer, Richard Lentino, in Orange County Court.
Prosecutors say James and Daryl Daniels, 25, both of Poughkeepsie, robbed Plante and then fatally shot him on Jan. 6.
Plante, who was 36 and lived in the Town of Newburgh, fled in his vehicle, but due to his injuries, he crashed into a Mount Saint Mary College dormitory on Carobene Court. He was pronounced dead at the Newburgh campus of St. Luke's-Cornwall Hospital.
Chief Trial Assistant District Attorney John Geidel asked Judge Nicholas De Rosa to set bail for James as he did for Daniels, at $1 million cash and $3 million bond.
As investigators made contact with James' relatives and friends in the Poughkeepsie area, Geidel said, James fled to Georgia. Geidel said James also has a criminal history in the state of Florida. Geidel said prosecutors have filed notice with the defense that they have evidence gathered via eavesdropping statutes in the criminal procedure law.
Lentino told the judge he'll reserve his right to argue for lower bail until he sees how the case develops.
James and Daniels remain jailed. They are to return to court on April 17.

The Question Is…
What is the question?
Why should you care?
Why should anyone care?
Are there anymore frozen waffles in the freezer?
While Tiger Woods gets out of sex therapy and his wife tries to decide whether or not she can handle a public life stained with his indecency, the politicians of our country continue to fight over healthcare for political clout, and our soldiers keep killing and dying in the biggest poppy producing nation in the world. You think I'm insane? You think You're insane?
Maybe we're ALL insane.
Religious extremists are promoting an anti-abortion agenda at the expense of everything else. They see abortion as murder, and are probably be willing to put ANYONE in charge of the government in order to make it illegal. (Hitler comes to mind) It isn't about partial birth abortion, or stem cell research, it's about the entire concept of abortion being legal. To them it's murder. Murder is murder – and they won't stop until murder is no longer allowed. This in itself wouldn't be scary if it weren't for the fact that they have drug all of the rest of the right wing along with them in one big group. And THIS is how Bush got elected twice. Want to do it again?
Atheists and non-Christians are getting pissed, partly because religious organizations keep shoving shit in their noses. When you don't want to drink the Kool Aid, you generally keep your mouth shut. But lately the religious and the unreligious seem to have been going out of their way to trade barbs with each other. If it's not a nativity scene at a court house, it's the concept of "intelligent design" or a re-write of the bible to make it more conservative. Another holy war is just what we need. But a holy war inside the country? How long has this shit been brewing? What can the ultimate resolution be? Seems like this country was founded on freedom of religion, so who gets to say what's real and what's for sale? There's the query. There's the button. Push it and see what happens. I guarantee you it won't be pretty. And what's it all about? A picture in a textbook. The view of reality that we present to our children. A book full of fairy tales to some, and tomb of ancestral knowledge to others. Here's an idea – let's kill each other over it!
Or maybe not…
Hatred gets spewed by one side, and disgust gets spewed by the other. The left thinks the right is stupid, and the right thinks the left is bereft of ethics and morals. Both are correct, of course – to one extent or another. The battle goes on. Should we stop taking care of old people? Should we make young people pay for insurance so that the old people can get health care? Should we let anything happen if it makes the other side look good? Fuck the benefits to the people, if it comes at the expense of making the Liberals look like they got something done, then the people can go to hell.
Throughout all of this, the universe keeps spinning. Sooner or later there will be a supernova in our local area of the galaxy, one bright enough to be visible during the day. Sooner or later there will be a major earthquake in a major city and a shitload of people will die. Sooner or later there will be a massive drought, and food prices will go through the roof. Millions will die. Sooner or later some asshole country will set off a nuclear weapon and dump tons of radioactive material into the atmosphere. Hundreds of thousands will die, but millions will get cancer because of it. Sooner or later a deadly virus will appear from some weird mutation, and we won't be able to come up with a cure fast enough. Millions, maybe even billions, will die. Even some of the atheists will pray. But it won't matter. Society will live through it – pass through it – changed in ways we can't even imagine. Sooner or later our sun will release a massive solar flare that will screw up our satellites and wreak havoc with our communications and computer networks, causing blackouts all over the world, followed by riots and civil unrest. Sooner or later mankind will learn how to create an artificial mind that thinks like we do, and unleash who knows what kind of social change into our midst. Sooner or later our world will be hit by an asteroid or a meteor of a size large enough to cause the plate boundaries on our world to break apart and shift globally, blanketing the atmosphere in ash and fire. Billions will die in a plague of starvation, and a new ice age will come.
Or we could be ready for it. We could get our act together. We could start regulating our population, and maintain it. We could ensure our children are educated with goals in mind. We could watch the heavens and be ready with a plan to stop an asteroid collision. We could prepare a plan to deal with plague – one that would isolate individual pockets of society into cells to stop an epidemic.
There are a lot of things we could do. A LOT of them. But we aren't going to do them, are we? We're going to fight for political reasons. We're going to kill for money. And we're going to hate each other over religious choices and our own personal illusions of right and wrong.
Damn but I'm optimistic today!

Sufflogobius bibarbatus
Sufflogobius bibarbatus, the Bearded Goby or Pelagic Goby, is a species of goby native to the southeastern Atlantic Ocean. It is currently the only known member of its genus.[1]
It reaches a maximum length of 17 centimeters (6.7 in). It has 7 dorsal spines and 12-13 dorsal soft rays. It has a single anal spine and 12-13 anal soft rays. Its fins are dusky to black in color.[1]
Range and habitat[edit]
This goby is demersal, inhabiting depths of 0–340 metres (0–1,115 ft) in subtropical waters ranging from 11–15 °C (52–59 °F) in the coastal waters of Namibia and South Africa.[1]
The bearded goby is usually found offshore but was also recorded in shore pools. Juveniles are epipelagic, while adults migrate to deeper waters, and large adults are only recorded from demersal trawls.[1]
The gobies can stay on the ocean floor for at least 10 to 12 hours at a time in an area of de-oxygenated "toxic sludge" rich in hydrogen sulfide H
2S where hardly anything lives except bacteria and nematodes. When settled on the bottom, they remain alert, showing rapid escape responses. They use the toxic mud as a refuge. Their population is growing despite the fact that they are now the main prey species in this unusual ecosystem.[2]
In 2010 was observed to feed on a species of jellyfish which was understood to be its main predator.[2][3] Jellies provide up to 1/3 of the fish's diet. It hides from mackerel amongst the jellies' stinger-covered tentacles when it rises from the seafloor for nighttime feeding.[4]
Fishes, penguins, Cape cormorants, crested terns and fur seals and jellies eat this fish.[1]
This goby hides from predators within jelly tentacles when it rises to feed and reoxygenate its blood.
Although targeted by purse seines, it may also be caught incidentally in trawls.

The element is the target element of the content from the remote page you would like.
You could specify the body element if you would like the entire page, or you could specify something like div#div_id_name to get the contents of that specific div.
But what does that mean? I mean, I understand that in order to get our content on a blog post we have to write '[web-scraper]', but where do we have to do the specifying?
Also if we want the 5th of a dozen div ids available, can we specify that specific div? Can we scrape a div on the basis of it being the first div when the contents inside the div will be constantly changing?
And where do we define the webpage we want scraped?
thanks, it looks like a very nice plugin but I don't think there are many instructions

This brush picks up just the right amount of product and applies it very evenly. I use it all the time and would consider purchasing more. The only downside I found is that after so many years, the rubbery part of the brushes is starting to peel off despite not being exposed to water or extreme heat, and it makes the brushes seem a little cheap and the handles very sticky to touch (on top of it, Real Techniques customer service did not provide a proper solution to this issue and suggested I just buy new brushes).

DOD Health Care:
Cost Impact of Health Care Reform and the Extension of Dependent Coverage
GAO-11-837R: Published: Sep 26, 2011. Publicly Released: Sep 26, 2011.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-3000
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The Department of Defense (DOD) offers health care to eligible beneficiaries through TRICARE, its health care program. Recently enacted health care reform legislation--the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (HCERA)--has implications for much of the nation's health care system, including TRICARE. One particular health reform provision directed certain health insurance plans to extend coverage to dependents up to age 26. Though this provision does not apply to TRICARE because it is not considered a health insurance plan, the subsequent Ike Skelton National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2011 (NDAA 2011) included a similar provision that extends TRICARE coverage to certain dependent children of TRICARE beneficiaries. In response, in May 2011, DOD began implementing TRICARE Young Adult (TYA), a premium-based health care plan that extends TRICARE coverage to dependents of TRICARE beneficiaries up to age 26 who do not have access to employer-sponsored health care coverage and are unmarried. The NDAA 2011 directed us to assess the cost to DOD of complying with PPACA and HCERA. You also asked us to examine DOD's costs of implementing, administering, and providing benefits under TYA. In this report, we assess DOD's costs of (1) complying with PPACA and HCERA and (2) implementing and providing benefits under TYA.
Overall, DOD expects to incur minimal costs to implement the 21 PPACA and HCERA provisions with which department officials have determined it is required to comply. In particular, DOD officials estimated that 11 of the provisions could be implemented at no cost, and the estimated costs of complying with another third of the provisions (8) are minimal because no new staff or significant additional resources will be required to implement them. Officials told us that they could not determine the exact costs for these 8 provisions until they are fully implemented. At this time, DOD has not yet estimated its costs for complying with the remaining 2 provisions--including providing written statements to beneficiaries affirming that coverage was provided--because according to department officials, it is awaiting regulations from other federal agencies on how to implement them. Nonetheless, department officials told us that DOD believes its costs to comply with these provisions will also be minimal. Department officials said that DOD is unable to determine whether it is practicable to implement additional PPACA and HCERA provisions that relate to Medicare reimbursement rates until the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) issues detailed regulations regarding their implementation. DOD has estimated that its costs to implement TYA will be about $4.4 million over fiscal years 2011 and 2012. These costs will be partially offset by a 2 percent markup included in the TYA premiums, beyond the level it believes to be necessary to cover TYA benefits and associated administrative costs. DOD's actual implementation costs for TYA may differ from its estimated costs and will not be known until after the program has been fully implemented. Additionally, although the NDAA 2011 requires the premiums for TYA to fully cover DOD's costs of providing the benefit, including associated administrative costs, these costs may initially exceed premium amounts. According to department officials, DOD plans to adjust TYA premiums based on the actual average cost of providing benefits and administrative costs starting with the calendar year 2014 premiums.

We introduce an approach and describe the process of acoustically driven formation of droplets in a microfluidic T-junction. Our system allows for fast and precise control of drop volume over a wide range that is fully electrically triggered. We exploit the interaction of a surface acoustic wave (SAW) excited on a piezoelectric, transparent substrate with the fluid to adjust the size of drops in a continuous microflow in real time and relate SAW intensity and drop size. Our device operates in the squeezing regime at low capillary numbers. We describe the mechanism of SAW modulated formation of a monodisperse microemulsion that forms the basis for the integration of more complex operations useful for droplet fluidic systems.
Electronic bands and excited states of III-V semiconductor polytypes with screened-exchange density functional calculations104(2014); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.4870095View Description Hide Description
The electronic band structures and excited states of III-V semiconductors such as GaP, AlP, AlAs, and AlSb for various polytypes are determined employing the screened-exchange density functional calculations implemented in the full-potential linearized augmented plane-wave methods. We demonstrate that GaP and AlSb in the wurtzite (WZ) structure have direct gap while III-V semiconductors in the zinc blende, 4H, and 6H structures considered in this study exhibit an indirect gap. Furthermore, we find that inclusion of Al atoms less than 17% and 83% in the hexagonal Al x Ga1− x P and Al x Ga1− x As alloys, respectively, leads to a direct transition with a gap energy of ∼2.3 eV. The feasibility of III-V semiconductors with a direct gap in WZ structure offers a possible crystal structure engineering to tune the optical properties of semiconductor materials.

A narrow EPR signal is visible at g = 2.0029 in both GO and CNT-Oxide from carbon-related dangling bonds. EPR signals became broader and of lower intensity after oxygen-containing functionalities were reduced and partially transformed into thiol groups to obtain thiol-functionalized reduced GO (TrGO) and thiol-functionalized CNT (CNT-SH), respectively. Additionally, EPR investigation of CdSe quantum dot-TrGO hybrid material reveals complete quenching of the TrGO EPR signal due to direct chemical attachment and electronic coupling. Our work confirms that EPR is a suitable tool to detect spin density changes in different functionalized nanocarbon materials and can contribute to improved understanding of electronic coupling effects in nanocarbon-nanoparticle hybrid nano-composites promising for various electronic and optoelectronic applications.
Surface band-bending and Fermi-level pinning in doped Si observed by Kelvin force microscopy104(2014); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.4870419View Description Hide Description
The workfunction change in doped Si was examined using Kelvin force microscopy in a wide range of doping concentrations from p-type ∼1019 to n-type ∼1020 cm−3 corresponding to the bulk Fermi-level positions from near the valence-band top to conduction-band minimum. Experimental data can be reproduced by model calculations using an appropriate surface-state density composed of the donor- and acceptor-like gap states. These results indicate that no appreciable surface-band bending occurs for doping concentrations less than ∼1014 cm−3 while the bending becomes prominent and the surface Fermi-level is eventually pinned in the midgap region as the concentration increases to ∼1020 cm−3.
Transient and persistent current induced conductivity changes in GaAs/AlGaAs high-electron-mobility transistors104(2014); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.4870422View Description Hide Description
We report the observation of a current induced change of the low temperature conductivity of two-dimensional electron gases in GaAs/AlGaAs-high-electron-mobility transistors. By applying voltage pulses on the ohmic contacts of a Hall bar-mesa-structure, both sheet-carrier-density n 2D and electron mobility μ are decreased. At temperatures below 50 K, a persistent change combined with a partial transient recovery of n 2D has been observed. The transient behaviour and the lateral spreading of the effect are studied. Moreover, a temperature dependent investigation has been done in order to get insight into the addressed defect energy levels. A model based on the phenomenology of the effect is proposed. The observed effect is not a permanent degradation as the original carrier concentration can be restored by warming up the sample to room temperature and recooling it.
Feasibility of Schottky diode as selector for bipolar-type resistive random access memory applications104(2014); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.4870465View Description Hide Description
The feasibility of Schottky diode as selector has been investigated for possible application in bipolar-type resistive random access memory (RRAM) devices. In order to evaluate the feasibility of Schottky diode as selector for bipolar-type RRAM applications, a full device simulation has been performed utilizing a Schottky diode + bipolar-type RRAM structure (1SD-1R). On the other hand, we confirmed its successful operation under experimental results with Ni/TiOx/W Schottky diode + Pt/HfO2/Cu bipolar-type RRAM structure. Furthermore, by applying a lower Set voltage in the 1SD-1R structure device, the Reset current and Reset voltage are found to decrease due to the reduced compliance current. Such dependence provides the possibility of lower power consumption in the 1SD-1R structure device.
Camel-back band-induced power factor enhancement of thermoelectric lead-tellurium from Boltzmann transport calculations104(2014); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.4870494View Description Hide Description
Band structures of PbTe can be abnormally bended via dual-doping on both the cationic and anionic sites to form camel-back multivalley energy band structures near the band edge. As a result, additional carrier pockets and strong intervalley scattering of carriers are introduced. Boltzmann transport calculations indicate that their contradictory effects yield remarkably enhanced power factor due to the improved thermopower and almost unchanged electrical conductivity in low temperature and high carrier concentration ranges. These findings prove dual-doping-induced band bending as an effective approach to improve the thermoelectric properties of PbTe and other similar materials.
Electronic states, pseudo-spin, and transport in the zinc-blende quantum wells and wires with vanishing band gap104(2014); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.4870495View Description Hide Description
We consider theoretically the electronic structure of quasi-two and quasi-one-dimensional heterostructures comprised of III–V and II–VI semiconductors such as InAs/GaInSb and HgCdTe. We show that not only a Dirac-like dispersion exists in these materials when the energy gap approaches zero but also the states with opposite momentum are orthogonal (i.e., can be described by a pseudo-spin), which suppresses backscattering and thereby enhances the electron mobility, by analogy with the case of graphene. However, unlike in graphene, a quasi-one-dimensional quantum wire with zero gap can be realized, which should eliminate most of the scattering processes and lead to long coherence lengths required for both conventional and ballistic electronic devices.
Anisotropy in the hole mobility measured along the and orientations in a strained Ge quantum well104(2014); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.4870392View Description Hide Description
In this paper, we report on anisotropic transport properties of strained germanium (sGe) quantum wells grown on Si (001) substrates with p-type doping beneath the sGe channel. Mobility measurements were made along orthogonal [110] directions. The level of measured resistivity anisotropy in the and orientations was found to vary between 2 and 9 for different samples. This corresponds to an actual mobility anisotropy ratio of between 1.3 and 2, values that are significantly higher than previously found for sGe. From modeling of the low temperature (12 K) mobility, using the relaxation time approach, the anisotropy in mobility was accounted for by a difference in interface roughness scattering between the two orientations. For the orientation, a step height of Δ = 0.28 nm and interface roughness periodicity of λ = 7 nm were found while for the orientation, λ reduced to 4 nm and Δ increased to 0.42 nm. High-resolution X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy confirmed a 1° off-cut in the wafer towards the direction.
Role of an interlayer at a TiN/Ge contact to alleviate the intrinsic Fermi-level pinning position toward the conduction band edge104(2014); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.4870510View Description Hide Description
TiN/Ge contacts, prepared by direct sputter deposition from a TiN target, can alleviate the intrinsic Fermi-level pinning (FLP) position toward the conduction band edge. This work focuses on studying the origin of the FLP alleviation. Investigations on both the electrical properties and interfacial structures of TiN/Ge contacts showed that an amorphous interlayer (IL) containing nitrogen played an important role in the alleviation. For comparison, the properties of Ti/Ge contacts were also studied. Based on these results, the IL structure that induced the FLP alleviation was clearly shown and a model was proposed to explain the FLP alleviation.
Investigation of charge compensation in indium-doped tin dioxide by hydrogen insertion via annealing under humid conditions104(2014); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.4870425View Description Hide Description
The behavior of hydrogen (H) as an impurity in indium (In)-doped tin dioxide (SnO2) was investigated by mass spectrometry analyses, with the aim of understanding the charge compensation mechanism in SnO2. The H-concentration of the In-doped SnO2 films increased to (1–2) × 1019 cm−3 by annealing in a humid atmosphere (WET annealing). The electron concentration in the films also increased after WET annealing but was two orders of magnitude less than their H-concentrations. A self-compensation mechanism, based on the assumption that H sits at substitutional sites, is proposed to explain the mismatch between the electron- and H-concentrations.

Highly frustrating and potentially life threatening situation Hyundai has put me in. On September 11th my vehicle caught on fire in the rear by the exhaust pipe. Prior to this my vehicle had been at rick case Hyundai 3 times with me complaining the transmission was not working properly the 1st time I was told there are no codes so we have to wait till it breaks, the 2nd time I was told no codes sorry, and the third time they actually replaced a broken part that controls the shift times in the transmission. Could show them my problem. I asked Hyundai corporate to do an investigation into the transmission and the fire and help me resolve this issue. They went through their 6 week process and then denied my claim saying it wasn't found to be a malfunction of any parts that caused the fire. I have video of where the fire started, the transmission not working, and countless pictures that show the fire obviously started at the tailpipe due to an increase in temperature because of the transmission failure. When I ask Hyundai for the information that lead to their conclusion they say it's confidential and proprietary and will not let me see it. When I tell them the transmission is still not working and everytime I drive it there is a burning smell and I'm scared for my safety and life driving this car they just say Hyundais decision is final and they won't honor my warranty on the car. They claim it's perfectly safe to drive and operating as intended and designed. I feel they are covering somethings up or never actually investigated this incident which is why they won't release information. During the fire malfunctions in the head shield and taillight wiring were discovered making for 4 possible life threatening defects my car was parked at work in my parking space when the smoke and fire started.

Car recalled for "salt belt corrosion" repairs in 2002. Original owner sold car back to Hyundai dealership. Repairs were never done. When I bought this used Hyundai Elantra in late 2002, it had less than 13k miles on its odometer. It was serviced at a 2nd Hyundai dealership until 2012, when its 10 yr/ 100 k mi warranty expired. Today, even though it still has < 100 k on its odometer, the entire underside of the vehicle is so badly rusted that I've been told by two different sources that the corrosion on the underside is so bad that, during a 50 mph or greater accident, it is likely the entire inside of the car could fall onto the highway, while it kept moving forward, decapitating everyone inside. .

Driving down highway with light rain. Temperature approx 34 degrees. While at speed limit (65mph) the moon-roof exploded! not simply shattered but exploded. (inside 'sun' cover was open at the time) there were no other cars on the road within 1/2 mile of me. I did not just pass under a bridge and no construction on the roadway at the time of the explosion. Almost lost control of car but managed to maintain until I could pull over on side of roadway. Suffered minor cuts to scalp, face and neck (nothing that required hospitalization). Significant shards of glass throughout the interior of the car and some minor damage to paint surface from shards of glass hitting the outside of the car; rear roof of car and rear deck lid of trunk. Lodged complain with corporate Hyundai (have case number), also went to local Hyundai dealership gave them case number and had them take photos. Dealership initial reaction is that glass is not covered. They suspect the dropping temperature may have had something to do with it. I have escalated my claim with Hyundai corporate; asking under the circumstances that this is obviously a manufacture defect, that they cover all costs of repair. Awaiting their response.
The contact owns a 2013 Hyundai Elantra. The contact stated that due to the sun, a glare reflected from the dashboard into the windshield. As a result, the contact's visibility was impaired. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 9,000.
Sunroof shattered traveling down the interstate at 70 mph in very light traffic, heard a loud noise on top of car. Soon realized by the wind noise that the sunroof had broken. Pulled off at next exit, observed shattered sunroof glass. Concerned this is a defect - as there was no traffic around to throw anything into the roof of the car, and it did not happen after passing under an overpass. There was no explanation for the damage.
The plastic chrome on the inside passenger door handle is "delaminated" and a razor sharp edge is exposed. When I reached across the seat (from the drivers side) to open to passenger door, the sharp edge deeply cut my finger which had to have pressure for about three hours before it would stop bleeding. This car only has 27k miles and rarely sees someone in the passenger seat so this is not due to extensive use as stated in previous recalls for this problem. If the problem was identified and recalled in 2009 then why is it still a problem in 2014? this car was in for service and a non-related warranty fix last month and nothing was said about this problem (and subsequently, the dealer was not inspecting for this problem).
The chrome covered interior passenger door handle cracked and the jagged metal edge cut my passenger's hand. My passenger pulled the handle to open the door from the inside, the handle cracked, and the metal cut his hand. I believe that this problem is similar (perhaps identical) to that identified in the 2002-3 sonata which prompted a recall, but I could not find a recall notice for my car.
Turning onto main street when a large oak tree fell from left side of road, catching lower drivers sidefront fiberglass bumper and tow bar. Making the car stop abrubtly. Air bags deploid, passenger side shattered windshield and ripped dash area on passenger side. The bag hit my wifes right arm and shattered all the bones from her elbow to her fingers. We are 74,and 75 yrs of age. As driver my lip was split open. I was able to drive the car to my home 5 blocks away looking through a shattered windshield. But the wife had to spend 5 days in hosp. And two surgeries to put her arm back together. The air bag did all of the bad damage to my vehicle and my wife. All attempts to have legal help has been turned down saying not enough to take to court. Can you help. The air bag almost killed her. They are supposed to help not mame. . . Thankyou.

Took 2001 Elantra to dealer as a result of low brake fluid. Dealer discovered vehicle unsafe to drive and irreparable due to corrosion of rear cross member and/or "spud". It is our understanding that this corrosion occurred in the area where brake fluid was leaking. It has been suggested that the problem is due to road salt. However, we also have a (lower-mileage) 2005 Elantra which we keep parked in the same garage as the 2001 Elantra and which, to the best of our knowledge, shows no sign of corrosion.
My wife was driving the car. It was a dark road in the night. Perhaps she didn't see the stop sign and cash into a vehicle coming from right hand side, going in the same direction my wife was going. My wife crashed the other vehicle from behind. It was serious crash in which the entire front portion of the car is damaged. But the air bags did not come out. My wife had her head hit the steering wheel and had a an injury. My complaint is "why did the air bag not inflate in such a serious crash?" . . Updated 10/06/14 .
My daughter was driving home from school and the strut/axle broke and caused her to skid off the rode, luckily she was not injured and was able to come to a stop in an empty lot. The tire was ruined and the fender was also damanged. We were able to get this fixed at the repair shop, for just under $500, however now the vehicle will not pass inspection due to the subframe being deteriorated. Upon researching the cost to replace this, I found that the vehicle has had several recalls, and wow both of these were on the list. My concern is that the vehicle is 2003 and we are not the original owners. I am concerned now that the other recalls may also affect thei vehicle. The safety of my daughter and grandson is top priority. What can you help me with. Can we still use the recall to have the vehicle repaired?.

On July 18, 2014, my 2013 Hyundai Elantra ran into a subway restaurant at 12150 s. Cicero, alsip, IL. I was going into the subway parking lot, my goal was to park, but my car did not stop when I put on my brakes. My car kept going; it drove over the sidewalk, through the scrubs, and hit the building head on. Hitting the building is what stopped my vehicle, my air bag did not deploy. I then put on the brakes, put it in reverse and backed off the building, backing into the parking place that I was originally going into to park. Once my car was parked, it began to smoke. I got out of the car, looked at the damage to my car and the subway building, called my insurance company, state farm and my son. The 2 employees in the subway, called the police and the subway restaurant owner.
Sun roof (moon roof) exploded. While traveling at 65 mph, with the sun roof closed and the internal ceiling shade closed, an extremely loud pop came from the roof of the car. Very loud! then, the sound of wind and broken glass streaming over the car and onto the cars traveling behind us. We pulled over and found the sun roof shattered from edge to edge. We made our way to the nearest Hyundai dealer and persuaded them to vacuum out the glass. They told us that this was due to a rock hitting the top and would not be covered by the warranty. We made our way home with no top but talked to many different Hyundai representatives who all claimed that they'd never heard of such a thing. Our subsequent research has suggested otherwise. This is a major concern for the safety of those driving and occupying these cars and for the other drivers on the road as well.
I had a low speed accident approximately 10-20mph in a parking lot where I hit a cement surrounding of a pole on the driver side and the airbag deployed on the passengers side causing signifcant damage to the windshield, busted the dash vents, locked my drivers seatbelt and shattered windshield glass all over the car.
My vehicle the Elantra ( aprox sp 40mph) rear ended a chevy tahoe( aprx sp 30mph) my Elantra was a total loss and my lower back was injured as well as my right hand. I had to be taken from the vehicle from ems and transported to the hospital. The occupant of the tahoe didn't receive any injury. This is the second accident in this vehicle that the air bags did not deploy . In 2011 my vehicle moving aprox 55mph struck 3 deer at once on the passenger front of the vehicle, my son experience a shoulder injury who was my passenger.
Was traveling home at 6 pm and I was coming over a hill and a car stoped short I swerved to avoid collission and side swiped a telephone pole. The airbags went off and I was hit with a piece of sharpnal that went into my lip causing me to get stitches and has left my face disfigured.

A Tiger More Prey Than Predator
By David Winning
Amid a frenzy of deals in central Africa's copper belt, Australia's Tiger Resources looks more prey than predator, analysts say.
Cashed-up Chinese companies on the prowl for resources have already bid for Anvil Mining and Metorex this year–two miners with operations within about 60 miles of Tiger's Kipoi mine in the Democratic of Republic of Congo.
And it won't have gone unnoticed to other companies looking for a bite of the copper sector that Dutch trading house Trafigura Beheer, Tiger's biggest shareholder with a 28% stake, was a willing seller of its stake in Anvil.
With a valuation of 312 million Australian dollars (US$318 million), Tiger would be easy meat for bigger miners.
Anvil and Metorex each attracted bids of over US$1 billion, while analysts note Freeport McMoRan, Brazil's Vale and Swiss commodities giant Glencore are also active in the region.
Mining in central Africa isn't for the faint-hearted, especially with elections due in the DRC before the end of the year, but few areas have such promising reserves. Copper, with wide industrial uses including power transmission cables, is in big demand in rapidly industrializing Asian countries like China and India.
Tiger, though, is putting up a fight to justify remaining independent. It's ramping up output from its flagship Kipoi project to a monthly rate of 3,000 tons of copper in concentrate in December, and is in talks to acquire more acreage nearby.
Deals for late-stage exploration assets and operating mines would lay the foundations for Tiger to expand a proposed processing plant in the DRC, potentially trebling its forecast output of 50,000 tons of copper cathode around three years after coming online in 2014.
That could drive a catalyst in its shares, down by roughly a quarter at 46.5 Australian cents since mid-April in line with other commodities stocks and reflecting worries over the global economy. Foster Stockbroking rates Tiger a buy with a price target of A$0.95/share, with Ambrian Partners making the same recommendation and targeting A$0.85/share.
"Given Tiger's resource size, low cash costs and pipeline of growth assets, we believe that it is firmly on the radar of the larger miners," Ambrian analyst Adam Kiley says.
When predators start to stalk Tiger, they may regret not pouncing when the stock is as cheap as now.
