Application of a scattered-light radiometric power meter82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3574218View Description Hide Description
The power measurement of high-power continuous-wave laser beams typically calls for the use of water-cooled thermopile power meters. Large thermopile meters have slow response times that can prove insufficient to conduct certain tests, such as determining the influence of atmospheric turbulence on transmitted beam power. To achieve faster response times, we calibrated a digital camera to measure the power level as the optical beam is projected onto a white surface. This scattered-light radiometric power meter saves the expense of purchasing a large area power meter and the required water cooling. In addition, the system can report the power distribution, changes in the position, and the spot size of the beam. This paper presents the theory of the scattered-light radiometric power meter and demonstrates its use during a field test at a 2.2 km optical range.
A system and methodologies for absolute quantum efficiency measurements from the vacuum ultraviolet through the near infrared82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3574220View Description Hide Description
In this paper we present our system design and methodology for making absolute quantum efficiency (QE) measurements through the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) and verify the system with delta-doped siliconCCDs. Delta-doped detectors provide an excellent platform to validate measurements through the VUV due to their enhanced UV response. The requirements for measuring QE through the VUV are more strenuous than measurements in the near UV and necessitate, among other things, the use of a vacuum monochromator, good dewar chamber vacuum to prevent on-chip condensation, and more stringent handling requirements.
A comb-sampling method for enhanced mass analysis in linear electrostatic ion traps82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3572331View Description Hide Description
In this paper an algorithm for extracting spectral information from signals containing a series of narrow periodic impulses is presented. Such signals can typically be acquired by pickup detectors from the image-charge of ion bunches oscillating in a linear electrostaticion trap, where frequency analysis provides a scheme for high-resolution mass spectrometry. To provide an improved technique for such frequency analysis, we introduce the CHIMERA algorithm (Comb-sampling for High-resolution IMpulse-train frequency ExtRAaction). This algorithm utilizes a comb function to generate frequency coefficients, rather than using sinusoids via a Fourier transform, since the comb provides a superior match to the data. This new technique is developed theoretically, applied to synthetic data, and then used to perform high resolution mass spectrometry on real data from an ion trap. If the ions are generated at a localized point in time and space, and the data is simultaneously acquired with multiple pickup rings, the method is shown to be a significant improvement on Fourier analysis. The mass spectra generated typically have an order of magnitude higher resolution compared with that obtained from fundamental Fourier frequencies, and are absent of large contributions from harmonic frequency components.
Self-eliminating instrumental frequency response from free carrier absorption signals for silicon wafer characterization82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3577043View Description Hide Description
Accurate determination of electronic transport properties of semiconductor wafers with modulated free carrier absorption (MFCA) and multiparameter fitting requires the total elimination of instrumental response from the MFCA signals. In this paper, an approach to eliminate the effect of instrumental response on the frequency dependence of MFCA amplitude and phase is developed both theoretically and experimentally to simultaneously determine the transport properties (minority-carrier lifetime, carrier diffusion coefficient, and front surface recombination velocity) of silicon wafers. Experimental results showed that with the proposed method the instrumental frequency response was fully eliminated from the experimental MFCA data and had no impact on the multiparameter fitting, while with conventional methods the accuracy of the fitted transport parameters was influenced detrimentally by the errors of the measured instrumental frequency responses, in particular for the minority-carrier lifetime and the front surface recombination velocity.
Polarization-preserving confocal microscope for optical experiments in a dilution refrigerator with high magnetic field82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3574217View Description Hide Description
We present the design and operation of a fiber-based cryogenic confocal microscope. It is designed as a compact cold-finger that fits inside the bore of a superconducting magnet, and which is a modular unit that can be easily swapped between use in a dilution refrigerator and other cryostats. We aimed at application in quantum optical experiments with electron spins in semiconductors and the design has been optimized for driving with and detection of optical fields with well-defined polarizations. This was implemented with optical access via a polarization maintaining fiber together with Voigt geometry at the cold finger, which circumvents Faraday rotations in the optical components in high magnetic fields. Our unit is versatile for use in experiments that measure photoluminescence, reflection, or transmission, as we demonstrate with a quantum optical experiment with an ensemble of donor-bound electrons in a thin GaAs film.
The hyperspectral irradiometer, a new instrument for long-term and unattended field spectroscopy measurements82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3574360View Description Hide Description
Reliable time series of vegetation optical properties are needed to improve the modeling of the terrestrial carbon budget with remote sensing data. This paper describes the development of an automatic spectral system able to collect continuous long-term in-field spectral measurements of spectral down-welling and surface reflected irradiance. The paper addresses the development of the system, named hyperspectral irradiometer (HSI), describes its optical design, the acquisition, and processing operations. Measurements gathered on a vegetated surface by the HSI are shown, discussed and compared with experimental outcomes with independent instruments.
Small-sized dichroic atomic vapor laser lock82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3568824View Description Hide Description
Two, lightweight diode laser frequency stabilization systems designed for experiments in the field are described. A significant reduction in size and weight in both models supports the further miniaturization of measurement devices in the field. Similar to a previous design,magnetic field lines are contained within a magnetic shield enclosing permanent magnets and a Rb cell, so that these dichroic atomic vapor laser lock (DAVLL) systems may be used for magnetically sensitive instruments. The mini-DAVLL system (49 mm long) uses a vapor cell (20 mm long) and does not require cell heaters. An even smaller micro-DAVLL system (9 mm long) uses a microfabricated cell (3 mm square) and requires heaters. These new systems show no degradation in performance with regard to previous designs while considerably reducing dimensions.
An integrated laser Raman optical sensor for fast detection of nitrogen and oxygen in a cryogenic mixture82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3581336View Description Hide Description
An integrated fiber optic Raman sensor was designed for real-time, nonintrusive detection of liquid nitrogen (LN2) in liquid oxygen (LO2) at high pressures and high flow rates. This was intended to monitor the quality of LO2 in oxidizer feed lines during the ground testing of rocket engines. Various issues related to optical diagnosis of cryogenic fluids (LN2/LO2) in supercritical environment of rocket engine test facility, such as fluorescence from impurity in optical window of feed line, signal-noise ratio, and fast data acquisition time, etc., are well addressed. The integrated sensor employed a frequency doubled 532-nm continuous wave Nd:YAG laser as an excitation light source. The other optical components included were InPhotonics Raman probes, spectrometers, and photomultiplier tubes(PMTs). The spectrometer was used to collect the Raman spectrum of LN2 and LO2. The PMT detection unit was integrated with home-built LABVIEW software for fast monitoring of concentration ratios LN2 and LO2. Prior to designing an integrated sensor system, its optical components were also tested with gaseous nitrogen (GN2) and oxygen (GO2).
One-dimensional space resolving flat-field holographic grating soft x-ray framing camera spectrograph for laser plasma diagnostics82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3579494View Description Hide Description
A 1D space resolving x-rayspectrumdiagnostic system has been developed to study the radiation opacity of hot plasma on SG-II laser facility. The diagnostic system consists of a 2400 lines/mm flat-field holographic grating and a gated microchannel plate coupled with an optical CCD and covers the wavelength range of 5–50 Å. The holographic grating was compared with a ruled one by measuring the emission spectra from a laser-produced molybdenum plasma. The results indicate that the holographic grating possesses better sensitivity than the ruled grating having nearly similar spectral resolution. The spectrograph has been used in radiative opacitymeasurement of Fe plasma. Simultaneous measurements of the backlight source and the transmission spectrum in appointed time range in one shot have been accomplished successfully with the holographic gratingspectrometer. The 2p–3d transition absorption of Fe plasma near 15.5Å in has been observed clearly.
Characteristics of stand-alone microlenses in fiber-based fluorescence imaging applications82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3581217View Description Hide Description
Microlens-ended fibers, which have found tremendous interest in the recent past, find potential biomedical applications, in particular, in endoscopic imaging. The work presented in this paper focuses on the stand-alone microlenses along with custom-fabricated specialty optical fiber, such as imaging fiber, for probe imaging applications. Stand-alone self-aligned microlenses have been fabricated employing microcompression molding and then attached at the end facet of imaging fiber. A detailed characterization of the fabricated microlens is carried and it demonstrates appropriate focusing ability, high fluorescence collection efficiency and imaging ability for biomedical applications. The surface roughness of the microlens is found to be 25 nm with a minimum spot size of 38 μm. The probe imaging system is found to be able to image the fluorescence microspheres of 10 μm size. The collection efficiency of the fiber probe with lens found to be enhanced by three times approximately.

A novel high resolution ion wide angle spectrometer82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3575581View Description Hide Description
A novel ion wide angle spectrometer (iWASP) has been developed, which is capable of measuring angularly resolved energy distributions of protons and a second ion species, such as carbon C6 +, simultaneously. The energy resolution for protons and carbon ions is better than 10% at ∼50 MeV/nucleon and thus suitable for the study of novel laser-ion acceleration schemes aiming for ultrahigh particle energies. A wedged magnet design enables an acceptance angle of 30°(∼524 mrad) and high angular accuracy in the μrad range. First, results obtained at the LANL Trident laser facility are presented demonstrating high energy and angular resolution of this novel iWASP.
Design and characterization of optical heads for interferometric ballistic velocity measurements82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3581334View Description Hide Description
The design of optical fiber based heads offering high accuracy and bandwidth for use in VISAR (velocity interferometer system for any reflector) experiments measuring ballistic velocities is described. A new, expanded, model for predicting the distance-dependent collection efficiency of the heads is presented. The model is shown to agree very well with experimental results, both within and outside the "depth of field". Various optical heads are demonstrated, to suit different experimental setups and conditions. Designs offering options for high bandwidths, accurate prealignment, and large stand-off distances are discussed. Results from a typical VISAR experiment are presented, verifying that our designs yield high-quality data.
A novel compact design of calibration equipment for gas and thermal sensors82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3581207View Description Hide Description
A novel design of calibration equipment has been developed for static and dynamic calibrations of gas and thermal sensors. This system is cheap, compact, and easily adjustable, which is also combined with a plasmasurface modificationsource for tailoring the surface of sensors to ensure the sensitivity and selectivity. The main advantage of this equipment is that the operating temperature, bias voltage, types of plasma source (for surface modification), types of feeding gases, and gas flow rate (for calibrations), etc., can be independently controlled. This novel system provides a highly reliable, reproducible, and economical method of calibrations for various gas and thermal sensors.
Two-screen single-shot electron spectrometer for laser wakefield accelerated electron beams82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3585862View Description Hide Description
The laser wakefield acceleration electron beams can essentially deviate from the axis of the system, which distinguishes them greatly from beams of conventional accelerators. In case of energy measurements by means of a permanent-magnet electron spectrometer, the deviation angle can affect accuracy, especially for high energies. A two-screen single-shot electron spectrometer that correctly allows for variations of the angle of entry is considered. The spectrometer design enables enhancing accuracy of measuring narrow electron beams significantly as compared to a one-screen spectrometer with analogous magnetic field, size, and angular acceptance.

Double-sensor method for detection of oscillating electric field82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3571299View Description Hide Description
An electric-field sensor consisting of thin copper plates is designed to measure an oscillating electric field produced by charge separations on a plasma column. The sensor installed in a vacuum region around plasma detects charges induced by the electric field on the copper plates. The value of the induced charges depends not only on the strength of the electric field, but also on the design of the sensor. To obtain the correct strength of the electric field, a correction factor arising from the design of the sensor must be known. The factor is calculated numerically using Laplace's equation and compared with a value measured using a uniform electric field in the frequency range of 10–500 kHz. When an external circuit is connected to the sensor to measure the induced charges, the electric field around the sensor is disturbed. Therefore, a double-sensor method for excluding a disturbed component in the measuredelectric field is proposed. The reliability of the double-sensor method is confirmed by measuring dipole-like and quadrupole-like electric fields.
Evaluation of the Faraday angle by numerical methods and comparison with the Tore Supra and JET polarimeter electronics82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3570621View Description Hide Description
On the Tore Supra tokamak, a far infrared polarimeter diagnostic has been routinely used for diagnosing the current density by measuring the Faraday rotation angle. A high precision of measurement is needed to correctly reconstruct the current profile. To reach this precision, electronics used to compute the phase and the amplitude of the detected signals must have a good resilience to the noise in the measurement. In this article, the analogue card's response to the noise coming from the detectors and their impact on the Faraday angle measurements are analyzed, and we present numerical methods to calculate the phase and the amplitude. These validations have been done using real signals acquired by Tore Supra and JET experiments. These methods have been developed to be used in real-time in the future numerical cards that will replace the Tore Supra present analogue ones
A novel algorithm for quick and continuous tracing the change of radon concentration in environment82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3572271View Description Hide Description
Several measurements of the radon concentration are performed by RAD7 in the University of South China. We find that 30–40 min is needed for RAD7 for tracing the concentration of the standard radon chamber. There are two reasons. The first is that the sufficient time of air cycle is needed for the radon concentration in internal cell of RAD7 equal to that of the environment; and the second is that the sufficient decay time is needed for the 218Po concentration in internal cell of RAD7 equal to that of the radon. We used a zeroth order approximation to describe the evolution of the environment radon concentration, and obtained a novel algorithm for quick and continuous tracing the change of radon concentration. The corrected radon concentration obtained through this method is in good agreement with the reference value. This method can be applied to develop and improve the instruments for tracing the change of radon concentration quickly.
A compact repetitive high-voltage nanosecond pulse generator for the application of gas discharge82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3572265View Description Hide Description
Uniform and stable dischargeplasma requires very short duration pulses with fast rise times. A repetitive high-voltage nanosecond pulse generator for the application of gas discharge is presented in this paper. It is constructed with all solid-state components. Two-stage magnetic compression is used to generate a short duration pulse. Unlike in some reported studies, common commercial fast recovery diodes instead of a semiconductor opening switch (SOS) are used in our experiment that plays the role of SOS. The SOS-like effects of four different kinds of diodes are studied experimentally to optimize the output performance. It is found that the output pulse voltage is higher with a shorter reverse recovery time, and the rise time of pulse becomes faster when the falling time of reverse recovery current is shorter. The SOS-like effect of the diodes can be adjusted by changing the external circuit parameters. Through optimization the pulse generator can provide a pulsed voltage of 40 kV with a 40 ns duration, 10 ns rise time, and pulse repetition frequency of up to 5 kHz. Diffuse plasma can be formed in air at standard atmospheric pressure using the developed pulse generator. With a light weight and small packaging the pulse generator is suitable for gas discharge application.
Ion temperature fluctuation measurements using a retarding field analyzer82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3581219View Description Hide Description
The retarding field analyzer (RFA) is a widely used diagnostic tool for the ion temperature measurement in the scrape-off-layer (SOL) of the thermonuclear plasma devices. However, the temporal resolution in the standard RFA application is restricted to the ms timescale. In this paper, a dc operation of the RFA is considered, which allows for the measurement of the plasma ion temperaturefluctuations. The method is based on the relation for the RFA current–voltage (I–V) characteristic resulted from a common RFA model of shifted Maxwellian distribution of the analyzed ions, and the measurements of two points on the exponentially decaying region of the I–Vcharacteristic with two differently dc biased RFAelectrodes. The method has been tested and compared with conventional RFAmeasurements of the ion temperature in the tokamak ISTTOK SOLplasma. An ion temperature of T i = 17 eV is obtained near the limiter position. The agreement between the results of the two methods is within ∼25%. The amplitude of the ion temperaturefluctuations is found to be around 5 eV at this location. The method has been validated by taking into account the effect of fluctuations in the plasma potential and the noise contamination, proving the reliability of the results obtained. Finally, constrains to the method application are discussed that include a negligible electron emission from the RFA grids and the restriction to operate in the exponentially decaying region of the I–Vcharacteristic.

Angled long tip to tuning fork probes for atomic force microscopy in various environments82(2011); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3569765View Description Hide Description
We expand the range of applications of a tuning fork probe (TFP) in frequency-modulation atomic force microscopy (FM-AFM) by attaching a long metal tip at a certain angle. By the combined flexure of the metal tip and the tuning fork prong, this TFP can change the direction of the detectable force by switching the resonance frequency, which has not been realized with conventional TFPs with short tips. The oscillatory behavior of the tip apex of the TFP is predicted by computer simulations and is experimentally confirmed with scanning electron microscope. FM-AFM operations using this TFP are performed in various environments, i.e., in ultrahigh vacuum, air, and water. FM-AFM images obtained at an atomic step of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite in air show a clear difference depending on the excitation frequency. It is also revealed that the higher order flexural modes of this TFP are advantageous for FM-AFM in water due to the reduction in the degree of hydrodynamic damping.

1. Re: add context-handlers.xmlPaul Robinson Dec 5, 2011 5:23 AM (in response to Pavlos Polianidis)
Take a look at this example service implementation:
Here you will see the following class-level annotation:
@HandlerChain(file = "/context-handlers.xml", name = "Context Handlers")
This is how you specify which handler chain to use on the client side. You need to ensure that the context-handlers.xml file is available inside your deployment archive at the classpath location, specified in the annotation. For a war, the file should be located under /WEB-INF/classes.
Here's an example of the context-handlers.xml file:
2. Re: add context-handlers.xmlPavlos Polianidis Dec 5, 2011 7:17 AM (in response to Paul Robinson)
Hi Paul,
Actually i have examined the examples provided in the jbossts demo. The issue in my case is that i use the wsdl to java approach, where i cannot insert the
@HandlerChain(file = "/context-handlers.xml", name = "Context Handlers")annotation in my code. Is there a way to register the service-side handler chain, inside my code, like i did in my client?
As i noticed, the SOAP handler is the class com.arjuna.mw.wst11.client.JaxWSHeaderContextProcessor, which obviously will integrate the coordination context into the soap messages. My question is how to explicitely add this handler without using the @handlerchain annotation.
3. Re: add context-handlers.xmlPavlos Polianidis Dec 5, 2011 4:50 PM (in response to Pavlos Polianidis)
Hi paul,
Again me. I followed your instructions. I added the
@HandlerChain(file = "/context-handlers.xml", name = "Context Handlers")annotation. But know i get the following exception
when i try to deploy the service:

To be honest, the error that i mentioned above appeared when i tried to add the hadler chain via the appcontext.xml file of the Spring framework. I followed the instructions from this link: http://cxf.apache.org/docs/jax-ws-configuration.html
Then i tried to do the same task, but using the annotation approach now(the one you suggested). However i get the following exception:
Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: class com.arjuna.mw.wst11.service.JaxWSHeaderContextProcessor at java.lang.Class.asSubclass(Class.java:3018) at org.apache.cxf.jaxws.handler.HandlerChainBuilder.buildHandlerChain(HandlerChainBuilder.java:121)
this is the root of the exception.
5. Re: add context-handlers.xmlPaul Robinson Dec 6, 2011 8:41 AM (in response to Pavlos Polianidis)
This is a known issue:
This is one of the issues that I was referring to when I said you would have problems if you used a version of JBoss AS 7, prior to 7.1.0.beta1b.
You should upgrade to JbossAS 7.1.0.beta1b to fix this problem and a number of other issues with XTS.

After using for a few hours I have the impression this plugin is better than ClicktoFlash.
-Previews are a good addition.
-Videos load nicely. ClicktoFlash many times doesn't load the video properly.
For heavily flash based websites (like nvidia.com or starcraft2.com), clicktoflash seems a better option (because you can whitelist).

This weekend it's positivity and confidence all round as we look to cheer Diamonds back into the winners circle.
Still top of the table, still a joy to watch when they perform to their potential, and still cheered on by big crowds of owner fans who make a really big difference to the players on the pitch.
Back to back defeats have been a jolt to the system, especially the manner of last week's defeat at Potters Bar Town, but tomorrow we're back at the Dog & Dog where our record is fantastic for a side new into the league, bettered only by Aylesbury in terms of fewest points dropped.
Diamonds still sit top of the pile after 2nd placed Kings Langley also dropped points last week. It shows that no-one will be picking up maximum points between now and the end of the season and the traditional target of averaging 2 points per game which Diamonds have well within their grasp will still give any team a real tilt at the title.
The top 8 has re-shaped recently with Aylesbury and Northwood now level on points with fading Chalfont St. Peter but with games in hand that give them hopes of making a play-off position.
Diamonds have the second fewest games left against top 8 sides but they do include massive away trips to Egham & Royston. Those two sides have 5 top 8 games left to play including twice against each other!!
Kings Langley are in the strongest position with just 1 top 8 side to play but dropping points at home last week to Hanwell shows nothing can be taken for granted in this league.
Our opponents tomorrow are Barton Rovers who Diamonds beat 3-1 in Barton Le-Clay back in October. They sit down in 17th with a marginally better away record, but suffered 6-1 at Kings Langley and 3-0 at Chalfont St. Peter. Stand out result though was a recent 2-0 win at Egham Town added to a 1-1 draw at Royston Town early in the season.
It's set-up for a cracking afternoon with Andy Peaks sending out a confident motivated side who will be looking to bring goals and excitement back to the Diamonds faithful.
Radio Diamonds will be back to full speed with a pretty full squad to choose from and looking forward to calling the return to form and the start of a really positive end to the season.
Come on you Diamonds….

Is It Time to Break Up Goldman?
Over at Financial News, Roy C Smith, a finance professor at NYU Stern School of Business and a former partner of Goldman Sachs, writes on the need to break up Goldman Sachs:
Bank of America, Barclays, Citigroup, Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and UBS all experienced negative EVA. Not so surprising, perhaps. But what is Goldman Sachs, the prince of investment banks, doing among this group of underachievers?
For the last several years, Goldman Sachs has been a highly successful, integrated flow-trading machine – with investment banking and asset management feeding it with information, insight and opportunities.
The firm managed its risk exposures well and made large profits from this business model. However, even forgetting current market conditions, such a model is unlikely to work in an environment of heavy capital requirements, intense public scrutiny and tooth-bearing trading restrictions such as foreseen by Basel III and Dodd-Frank.
During the second quarter, in which Goldman admitted to "underperforming", it reduced its trading exposures to generate about 60% of revenues (from 80%), but in doing so crunched its return on investment to 6%.
Financing trading risk in future, as new rules are adopted, will be even tougher on returns. Investors, discouraged by these prospects, dropped Goldman's stock price in July to below its book value. And this was before the market hurricane in August.
Goldman Sachs will have to adapt to a new, optimal balance of business opportunities and regulatory requirements, while also repairing a badly battered professional reputation brought on by intensely competitive market practices.
It has had to do this several times before during its 142-year history but, for most of that time, the firm was a relatively small and flexible partnership.
Today it is a large, global bank owned by public investors, not unlike many of its clients. It needs to rethink its future in terms of market values, not market flows.

Scholarship, Spirituality and Religiosity, and Service
(detail from stained glass window at Mount Notre Dame)
The Billiart Center for Social Justice was established with the leadership of Sr. Mary Johnson, SND and Sr. Camilla Burns, SND at Trinity in September 2013. The Center continues the mission and influence of the Sisters of Notre Dame at Trinity through lectures, discussions and opportunities to put the idea of social justice into action. Named for St. Julie Billiart, founder of the Congregation of the Sisters of Notre Dame, the Billiart Center rests on four pillars: scholarship, spirituality and religiosity, and service – pillars on which the identity of Trinity rests as well. The Center will explore contemporary local, national and international social and economic issues which affect the lives of women, particularly in the religious and political spheres. The programs offered by the Billiart Center will build on the many ways in which these themes already are explored in Trinity's curricula and extracurricular activities. This Center is a central place that gathers and encourages what is already being done and offers assistance in developing more programs and ideas.
The devotion of Trinity faculty to teaching and scholarship is evident everyday on this campus. The religious and spiritual sensibilities of the majority of Trinity students is also abundantly clear. The commitment of the entire university community to service in a multitude of forms is so apparent. Programming for the new Billiart Center will build upon these strengths of the Trinity community. Lectures, films, discussion and reflection will revolve around the four pillars undergirding the Center. Faculty and student input for future programming will be solicited so that the co-curricular work of the Center will enhance what already exists at Trinity.

He has been a visiting scholar at Princeton University, the University of Pennsylvania, the Shanghai Institutes for International Studies, and the Stimson Center in Washington, and he lectures regularly at top military training institutions. He is the author of India's Nuclear Policy and Nuclear Weapons and Indian Security. In 1975, he received a master's degree in political science from the University of California, Los Angeles.
Decades after several nuclear weapon states committed themselves to pursuing disarmament "in good faith" and "at an early date," frustration over the pace of disarmament is growing more conspicuous.
Nations with nuclear arsenals find it easy enough to resist the disarmament pressure of countries that lack nuclear weapons. But what if a treaty emerged that turned nuclear-armed states into outlaws?
The author argues that disarmament instruments like the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty have little bearing today on the behavior of nuclear weapon states—that nuclear-armed nations can be perhaps cajoled to approach the disarmament well, but cannot be compelled to drink.
The author argues that when disarmament advocates rely on the Tlatelolco Treaty as a basis for eliminating nuclear weapons, they tend to overlook an implicit nuclear security guarantee that the United States extends to Latin America—a security guarantee undercutting any notion that the region is
The author argues that only moral suasion could compel nuclear-armed nations to comply with a treaty banning nuclear weapons. Moral suasion counts for little in today's world, he says, so establishing a treaty in the first place would be a hollow exercise.

Unknown: According to a report by The Hollywood Reporter, one source with experience planning presidential fundraisers said it would be a "no brainer" to keep DiCaprio away from a Clinton event, amid public scrutiny. DiCaprio and his Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation are facing questions over links to a US$3 billion embezzlement scheme surrounding Malaysian sovereign wealth fund 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB). The Clinton campaign denies the foundation is connected. Why did he back out of having the fundraiser for her? Neither have anything to hide "RIGHT"!!!!

For young actors struggling to find motivations for their characters, plays about World War II can pose a particularly difficult challenge.
Few things are more foreign to the minds and experiences of young Americans than the horrors and battles of that distant war. And as it recedes further into history, lessons that once seemed indelible have become increasingly abstract and difficult to grasp.
That's where Sophia Veffer comes in.
As a young girl in Amsterdam, Veffer, who is Jewish, hid from the Nazis for much of their long occupation of the Netherlands before being captured and eventually freed. Though she declined to discuss the details of her experience, Veffer said that it almost precisely mirrored that of Anne Frank, the young girl whose diary contains a harrowing account of her family's unsuccessful attempt to evade capture by the Nazis in Amsterdam. Except, of course, for one important detail: She survived.
Veffer, who has lived in Buffalo for the past 55 years, was called on to share her experiences as a Holocaust survivor with the cast of Theatre of Youth's production of "Number the Stars," a play adapted from Lois Lowry's fictional account of a young Jewish girl who survived the Holocaust with her family in Denmark. The play opens tonight in the Allendale Theatre.
During a recent rehearsal, Veffer sat down with cast members on the Allendale stage to talk about her experiences during the war and about the way in which a single individual -- in the case of "Number the Stars," King Christian of Denmark -- can make an enormous difference by standing up for what is right.
Meg Quinn, Theatre of Youth's artistic director, recalled her first meeting with Veffer in 2000, when she met with the cast of a Theatre of Youth production of "The Diary of Anne Frank."
"She had brought with her one of the yellow stars that had been worn by someone [during the war]. I just remember her passing it around the table and all of us just touched it. I've never forgotten what that felt like, and it just took us to a whole different level of understanding the play," Quinn said.
Veffer made a similar contribution this time around, she said, by highlighting the importance of King Christian's uncommon bravery and courage during the Nazi occupation.
Most royal families, Veffer said, fled to England and on to the United States or Canada to wait out the war. "But the Danish King stayed," she said. "Not only did he stay, he was very sympathetic to the Jewish people, so when the Jews had to wear a star, he was also wearing a star to show the Danish people, and especially the Danish Jews, that he was on their side."
Veffer will participate in a talk-back session following Sunday's matinee performance of the play, which begins at 2 p.m. She said her purpose in addressing the crowd will be to "show, especially the children, that one person can make a difference, that we live in a global society and that we should talk out when we see something that we don't like."
She added: "Everybody should try to be vocal when they see injustice in this world."

My biggest complaint is the neighborhood. Unfortunately our unit face East and South.

They play music Friday nights, Saturday nights and ALL day Sunday, making your unit essentially uninhabitable due to the volume of the noise. The noise is inescapable in your unit.

Rated 4.3 out of 5 by 15 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Pat2782 Mother-In-Law loves it! She bought a Toy Poodle and loves taking him out for a walk in the stroller. Definitely worth giving it a try! May 9, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by BettyB I'm a cat lover but that's a mighty cute puppy westie. I'm a cat lover but that cute puppy westie (West Highland white terrier) could sell that to me even if I don't need it!! Use that puppy to sell European perfumes, luxurious exotic vacations, expensive German comforters (not just expensive but very effective), ski resorts…before s/he gets too big. I have an adult 6.8lbs true tuxedo cat, a DSH (Domestic Short Hair) true tuxedo one, with three layers of shiny fur (you need to blow on the back of her neck to apply monthly flea drops). That bag would fit her but not an adult westie. Somebody said something about the bag being too flimsy…pet bags are supposed to be flimsy. Inner support = hard rods and can injure pets. And if you have issues with Velcro attachments, ask a seamstress to attach longer ones. January 3, 2016
Rated 2 out of 5 by MarlaM Great idea but not well executed. Excellent idea, but the wheels in the front don't turn easily, and all the wheels are made of plastic and should be made from rubber. The carrier is nice, but the way it zips makes it very difficult to get my dog in and out. I have to put her in through the top opening which is not an easy task. The seat belt barely fits through the little seat belt holder on the back so it's a struggle to put the seat belt in and out. Like I said, it's a great idea but not great execution. March 17, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by pompos great product I love it.my Yorkie is not afraid of it she can see me at all time's. Make her feel comfortable March 3, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by Senior78 Product is everything I wanted Found putting it together very simple - my cat fits in it very well - handles easily when pushing stroller - especially like how easy it is to take carrier off stroller & then back on for trip to & from the Vet - the various see-through areas for the cat is a definite plus - helps her from feeling entirely closed in. I am a happy owner of your stroller. Pumpkin thanks you also. Sorry my photo could not be uploaded. February 3, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5 by nanicorkrupertstar piece of junk wheels are terrible ... feels like a 4 year olds toy February 17, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by Bunky perfect to go through airports good size, weight and ease of use. Another carrier for a small dog will fit on top which is what we plan to do through airports. October 14, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Traveller The Perfect Airline Stroller Wheel your pet right to the airplane door, take off the bag and fold up the stroller. It will be right at the door when you disembark so you don't have to lug your pet through the long corridors to customs and immigration. The bag fits nicely under the airline seat and your pet s comfy and happy. There is even a cup holder and bag compartments for bags and collapsible water dishes. It's a versatile and perfect combination. Chewy had the best price and delivery was fast and easy. Don't hesitate. This is the right stroller for you! December 16, 2013

Shoulder Exercise: Wall Climbing to the Side
Avoid any movement that is straight to your side, and be careful not to arch your back. Your arm should stay about 30 degrees to the front of your side.
- Stand with your side to a wall so that your fingers can just touch it at an angle about 30 degrees toward the front of your body.
- Walk the fingers of your injured arm up the wall as high as pain permits. Try not to shrug your shoulder up toward your ear as you move your arm up.
- Hold that position for a count of at least 15 to 20.
- Walk your fingers back down to the starting position.
- Repeat at least 2 to 4 times, trying to reach higher each time.

Hi all,
I'm using a table to do the 'about' page on http://about-your-dress.com (page is here) but I just can't get the text to align with its corresponding image! There's a colum for the text and one for the images, and each person's image and bio are on their own row. But for some reason, the text keeps appearing along the bottom of the image. It's driving me mad! I built the table in Dreamweaver and it's fine there, and I've tried playing with smaller column widths but to no avail.
Please help!

When you go online the first thing they do is have you put in all your credit card information I should have thought something was fishy then. Once they have that they have you order. They offer buy one get one free if you pay shipping and handling on the second item. They offer extras to be added onto this toy. Once they get all the information for your order they do not give you a total until after you put your order in. [continued below]....
After i was finished the total bill came to $117.50. When I tried to call the dispute line the lines were busy they could not put me through I tried this number almost 20 times at all hours of the day. I emailed the company several times and they always bounce back as being undeliverable. Once the item arrived I called and after being on hold for almost 30 minutes they told me I could return the items and they would give me $15.98 back. Their shipping and handling total came to $31.97.
So I would have to I would have to pay postage to return the items and I would only receive half of the postage and handling this does not include the $40.00 charged for the items. They really know how to play this scam because they do not give you a receipt until the end when they have doubled your order and have overcharged. I went to my credit card company and they said they were be a problem because I did not have receipt for my initial purchase which was more than half of what they charge me. Now I have to write a letter to my credit card company to have these charge taken off. Stay away or you will be a victim too.

Website misdirection
AUTHOR: ohmikeghod - ()
SUBMITTED: Saturday, July 06, 2013POSTED: Saturday, July 06, 2013
When you order from the cat's meow website, a number of confusing "do you want to order" pages display, some of which appear to mimic your original order, but actually are for new, different, or additional items. There is no review of the final order, and you are presented with an amount much larger than what you planned on. I thought my order would be about $35, but instead it came to $95. Not only that, but since I ordered on a Saturday, their "live order" really meant that if I want to talk to someone about their deceptive website, I'll have to do it Monday.

I also had a similar experience. I find it strange how all our charges were different . Mine were $107.07 when it should have been $35.89. I only wanted one set for one cat . I had two charges one for $71.78. The other for the correct $35.89. This happened on a Sunday so I called the next morning. and asked them to void the $71.78. They told me I had to wait for them to arrive , although they hadnt been shipped yet, write refuse on the box and they would refund my money. The toys weresupposed to arrive today but have not.

Offer Details: Cat's MeowTM is the cat toy your cat can't resist!
Through this special offer, you get Cat's MeowTM for only
$19.99 plus $7.99 P&H. BUT WAIT, now you can buy one, get one FREE! Just pay
an additional $7.99 P&H.
After accepting one additional upgrade which was listed as an additional $5.00 per unit I was charged $29.99 per unit and shipping of $15.90 per unit for a total of $91.78.
According to my calculations I should have been charged $24.99 per unit and $7.99 shipping per unit for a total of $45.96. You do not get a chance to see the total charges until the order has been processed.
You cannot speak with anyone about the order except Monday through Friday and since I placed the order on a Saturday, I suspect they will claim to have shipped the items when I do contact them on Monday.
This will be disputed by my Credit Card Company when I see the charges on my Credit Card.

Argentina's takeover of its top energy company from Spain's Repsol might solve the country's short-term energy needs, and it thrills Argentines who blame privatizations for their economy's collapse a decade ago. But analysts say it sends a terrible signal to anyone wanting to invest in Argentina.

Allegations made in connection with legal proceedings are generally not actionable for defamation nor related causes of action. Furthermore, any further litigation arising out of or connected with your divorce would likely only exacerbate your family relations which would already appear to be in a disconsolate state from your description of matters.
