Effects of distorted lattice and nonequal-valvence substitution on the long lasting phosphorescence of and doped phosphors108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3475989View Description Hide Description
The afterglow of activated can be greatly enhanced by the codoping of , as well as an interesting phenomenon of the improvement of the efficiency of the excitation light. However, activated does not show the phosphorescence until the codoping of . It is suggested that the codoping of improve the electron storage ability of material by acting as electron-trapping centers resulted from the nonequal-valence substitution of replacing and . And the -induced enhancement of the excitation efficiency of Eu and Gd codoped is due to the improvement of the energy transfer efficiency caused by the distortion of lattice of located at the sites of .
Enhancement of photovoltaic cell response due to high-refractive-index encapsulants108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3466980View Description Hide Description
This study compares the electrical output of photovoltaic(PV)cells encapsulated with silicones having different refractive indices to unencapsulated PVcells. It is demonstrated that the optical concentration ratio of dome-shaped concentrator PV systems can be increased by using a higher refractive-index encapsulant. The short-circuit photocurrent of the PVcell having high-refractive-index encapsulation is 71% higher than that of the PVcell having a low-refractive-index encapsulation , and 316% higher than that of the unencapsulated PVcell. These experimental concentration-ratio enhancements are consistent with the theoretical estimates of concentration ratio dependence on the refractive index of the PV concentrator.
ZnO-organic hybrid white light emitting diodes grown on flexible plastic using low temperature aqueous chemical method108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3475473View Description Hide Description
We demonstrate white light luminescence from ZnO-organic hybrid light emitting diodesgrown at on flexible plastic substrate by aqueous chemical growth. The configuration used for the ZnO-organic hybrid white light emitting diodes (WLEDs) consists of a layer of poly (9, 9-dioctylfluorene) (PFO) on poly (3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene) poly (styrenesulfonate) coated plastic with top ZnO nanorods. Structural, electrical, and optical properties of these WLEDs were measured and analyzed. Room temperature electroluminescencespectrum reveals a broad emission band covering the range from 420 to 750 nm. In order to distinguish the white light components and contribution of the PFO layer we used a Gaussian function to simulate the experimental data. Color coordinates measurement of the WLED reveals that the emitted light has a white impression. The color rendering index and correlated color temperature of the WLED were calculated to be 68 and 5800 K, respectively.
Modeling high power light-emitting diode spectra and their variation with junction temperature108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3463411View Description Hide Description
Spectral radiant flux is the primary optical characteristic of a light source, determining the luminous flux and color. Much research is dedicated to the modeling of light-emitting diode(LED)spectra and their temperature dependence, allowing for the simulation of optical properties in various applications. Most of the spectral radiant flux models that have been published so far are purely mathematical. For this paper, spectral radiant fluxes of commercial single colorLED packages have been measured in a custom made integrating sphere at several junction temperatures by active cooling and heating with a Peltier element. A spectrum model at 300 K is constructed where the Boltzmann free carrier distribution and carrier temperature are included. Subsequently, the model is extended with the carrier temperature variation, the band gapenergy shift, and the nonradiative recombination rate decrease with junction temperature. As a result, the skewness variation, peak frequency shift, and peak value change in the spectrum with temperature can be predicted. The model has been validated by comparing flux and color coordinates of measured and simulated spectra at 340 K junction temperature. In practice, only two spectral flux measurements at different junction temperatures are needed to accurately simulate a single colorspectrum at any temperature.
Intense whole area electroluminescence from low pressure chemical vapor deposition-silicon-rich oxide based light emitting capacitors108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3465335View Description Hide Description
Light emitting capacitors (LECs) based on silicon-rich oxide (SRO) were fabricated and its electroluminescent (EL) characteristics studied. Thin SRO films with were deposited by low pressure chemical vapor deposition and submitted to thermal treatment at for 180 min. Photoluminescence was observed in the SRO films and intense visible EL was obtained from fabricated LECs when stimulated with direct current. Strong intensity, naked eye visible, full area EL was obtained after the application of an electrical treatment. The EL was attributed to the presence of Si related defects and full area emission obtained was due to the optimization of carrier injection through the material by the annulations of preferential conductive paths.
Detection of concealed and buried chemicals by using multifrequency excitations108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3474651View Description Hide Description
In this paper, we present a new type of concealed and buried chemical detection system by stimulating and enhancing spectroscopic signatures with multifrequency excitations, which includes a low frequency gradient dcelectric field, a high frequency microwave field, and higher frequency infrared (IR) radiations. Each excitation frequency plays a unique role. The microwave, which can penetrate into the underground and/or pass through the dielectric covers with low attenuation, could effectively transform its energy into the concealed and buried chemicals and increases its evaporation rate from the sample source. Subsequently, a gradient dcelectric field, generated by a Van De Graaff generator, not only serves as a vapor accelerator for efficiently expediting the transportation process of the vapor release from the concealed and buried chemicals but also acts as a vapor concentrator for increasing the chemical concentrations in the detection area, which enables the trace level chemical detection. Finally, the stimulated and enhanced vapors on the surface are detected by the IR spectroscopic fingerprints. Our theoretical and experimental results demonstrate that more than sixfold increase in detection signal can be achieved by using this proposed technology. The proposed technology can also be used for standoff detection of concealed and buried chemicals by adding the remote IR and/or thermal spectroscopic and imaging detection systems.
Multiphoton-absorption induced ultraviolet luminescence of ZnO nanorods using low-energy femtosecond pulses108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3468632View Description Hide Description
Multiphoton-absorption (MPA) induced ultraviolet (UV)luminescence of ZnOnanorods grown by vapor phase transport was demonstrated using ultrafast excitation at pulse energies in the few nanojoules range, directly generated by a Ti:sapphire laser oscillator at wavelengths around 800 nm. The dependence of the UVluminescence on the excitation density reveals a two-photon absorption process as the responsible excitation mechanism. The broad spectral bandwidth of the excitation pulses obviously promotes the feasibility of the observed two-photon channel. Theoretical estimates concerning the contribution of nonlinear absorbance strongly support the experimental findings. The essential conditions for proper utilization of this process are discussed.
The measured dependence of the lateral ambipolar diffusion length on carrier injection-level in Stranski-Krastanov quantum dot devices108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3471812View Description Hide Description
Using the segmented contact method we separate and numerically evaluate the components making up the threshold current density dependence of quantum dot ridge waveguide lasers. An increasing internal optical mode loss and an increasing lateral out-diffusion current are the significant processes in ridges of widths between 4 and , with no significant contribution from a deteriorating gain-mode overlap. By fitting a diffusion length model to the lateral out-diffusion process, we extract the ambipolar diffusion length, , as a function of intrinsic carrier injection-level which covers carrier densities appropriate for functioning light-emitting diode and laser devices. The measured dependence fits a diffusion mechanism involving the thermal redistribution of carriers via the wetting-layer and most significantly leads to two regimes where can be reduced in self-assembled quantum-dot systems. Only one of these is shown to be beneficial to the overall efficiency of the device, while the other is at the expense of undesired high-order nonradiative recombination processes at high injection-levels. Covering a peak modal gain range of approximately 5 to over injection-levels of 65 to 122 meV at 350 K, this dependence caused to change from 0.75 to , with the maximum occurring at 84 meV where the peak modal gain is . Decreasing the temperature to 300 K reduced to over approximately the same injection-level range.
Influence of period and amplitude of microwaviness on crystal's laser damage threshold108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3462430View Description Hide Description
The laser induced damage threshold (LIDT) has become a technical bottleneck which restricts the application and development of the inertial confinement fusion. Using single point diamond turning method to process (KDP) crystals, the periodic microwaviness will be left on the machined surface which has a significant impact on the LIDT. In this paper, after acquiring the frequency information of machined surface of KDP crystals with the power spectral density method, we analyze quantitatively the influence of microwaviness on the LIDT of KDP crystal with the Fourier modal theory. Research results indicate that: the surface morphology of KDP crystal is consisted of the subwaviness with different characteristic spatial frequencies; and the reduced amount of the LIDT of KDP crystal leaded by such subwaviness is different; the experimental results of the LIDT are consistent with the theoretical calculations basically; for the machine tool and the processing technology we used, the leading frequency of microwaviness which caused the LIDT decreasing is between and , especially between and .

Spherical and cylindrical imploding and exploding shock waves in plasma system dominated by pair production108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3475725View Description Hide Description
The propagation of ion acoustic shock waves in cylindrical and spherical geometries has been investigated. The plasma system consists of cold ions, Boltzmannian electrons and positrons. Spherical, cylindrical Korteweg–de Vries–Burger equations have been derived by reductive perturbation technique and their shock behavior is studied by employing finite difference method. Our main emphasis is on the behavior of shock as it moves toward and away from center of spherical and cylindrical geometries. It is noticed, that the shock wave strength and steepness accrues with time as it moves toward the center and shock enervates as it moves away from center. The strength of shock in spherical geometry is found to dominate over shock strength in cylindrical geometry. Positron concentration, kinematicviscosity are also found to have significant effect on the shock structure and propagation. The results may have relevance in the inertial confinement fusion plasmas.
Optimization of complex oxide laser ablation conditions by plume imaging and optical emission spectroscopy108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3467770View Description Hide Description
The properties of thin films of complex oxides, such as (, Ca, Sr, etc.), produced by pulsed laser deposition depend critically on the experimental parameters in which laser ablation is carried out. Here, we report a comparative analysis of the pulsed laser ablation process of , in oxygen background, in the ambient pressure range from to 1 mbar, typically employed in pulsed laser deposition of manganites. The laser ablation plume was studied by using time-gated imaging and optical emission spectroscopy techniques. It was found that at a pressure of , the plume species arriving at the substrate are characterized by hyperthermal kinetic energy, and high degree of excitation. On the contrary, at larger oxygen pressure (0.1–1 mbar), the velocity of plume species reaching the substrate, and their degree of excitation are much reduced by the confining effects of the background gas. These features explain why an appropriate choice of the experimental conditions in which the deposition process is carried out leads to better quality films, providing helpful indications to improve control over the growth process of both and other perovskitic oxides.
Low temperature plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition of thin films combining mechanical stiffness, electrical insulation, and homogeneity in microcavities108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3474989View Description Hide Description
The deposition of hydrogenated amorphous carbon (a-C:H) as well as hydrogenated amorphous silicon carbonitride (SiCN:H) films was investigated in view of a simultaneous realization of a minimum Young's modulus , a high electrical insulation , a low permittivity and the uniform coverage of microcavities with submillimeter dimensions. For the a-C:H deposition the precursors methane and acetylene were used, while SiCN:H films were deposited from mixtures of trimethylsilane with nitrogen and argon. To realize the deposition of micrometer thick films with the aforementioned complex requirements at substrate temperatures , several plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition methods were investigated: the capacitively coupled rf discharge and the microwave electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) plasma, combined with two types of pulsed substrate bias. SiCN:H filmsdeposited at about 1 Pa from ECR plasmas with pulsed high-voltage bias best met the requirements. Pulsed biasing with pulse periods of about and amplitudes of about −2 kV was found to be most advantageous for the conformal low temperature coating of the microtrenches, thereby ensuring the required mechanical and insulating film properties.
Pressure and arc voltage coupling in dc plasma torches: Identification and extraction of oscillation modes108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3466982View Description Hide Description
This work is devoted to the instabilities occurring in a plasma torch, such as those found in plasma spraying. These instabilities are responsible for a lack of reproducibility of coatings properties, especially in the case of suspension plasma spraying that is an innovative way to obtain thin coatings of submicron-sized particles. Strong Helmholtz oscillations are highlighted in the plasma flow and it is demonstrated that they overlap with different acoustic modes in addition with the more commonly admitted "restrike" mode, the later being due to rearcing events in the arc region. The instabilities occur in the arc voltage but it is experimentally shown in this paper that the pressure within the torch body presents the same kind of instabilities. Besides, a numerical filtering technique has been adapted to isolate the different instability components. The operating parameters of the plasma torch were varied in order to highlight their influence on the amplitude of the different modes, both for the arc voltage and the pressure.
Time-resolved investigation of dual high power impulse magnetron sputtering with closed magnetic field during deposition of Ti–Cu thin films108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3467001View Description Hide Description
Time-resolved comparative study of dual magnetron sputtering (dual-MS) and dual high power impulse magnetron sputtering (dual-HiPIMS) systems arranged with closed magnetic field is presented. The dual-MS system was operated with a repetition frequency 4.65 kHz (duty cycle ). The frequency during dual-HiPIMS is lower as well as its duty cycle (, duty 1%). Different metallic targets (Ti, Cu) and different cathode voltages were applied to get required stoichiometry of Ti–Cu thin films. The plasma parameters of the interspace between magnetrons in the substrate position were investigated by time-resolved optical emission spectroscopy, Langmuir probe technique, and measurement of ion fluxes to the substrate. It is shown that plasma density as well as ion flux is higher about two orders of magnitude in dual-HiPIMS system. This fact is partially caused by low diffusion of ionized sputtered particles which creates a preionized medium.
Growth model of binary alloy nanopowders for thermal plasma synthesis108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3464228View Description Hide Description
A new model is developed for numerical analysis of the entire growth process of binary alloy nanopowders in thermal plasma synthesis. The model can express any nanopowder profile in the particle size-composition distribution (PSCD). Moreover, its numerical solution algorithm is arithmetic and straightforward so that the model is easy to use. By virtue of these features, the model effectively simulates the collective and simultaneous combined process of binary homogeneous nucleation, binary heterogeneous cocondensation, and coagulation among nanoparticles. The effect of the freezing point depression due to nanoscale particle diameters is also considered in the model. In this study, the metal–silicon systems are particularly chosen as representative binary systems involving cocondensation processes. In consequence, the numerical calculation with the present model reveals the growth mechanisms of the Mo–Si and Ti–Si nanopowders by exhibiting their PSCD evolutions. The difference of the materials' saturation pressures strongly affects the growth behaviors and mature states of the binary alloy nanopowder.
Stages in the interaction of deuterium atoms with amorphous hydrogenated carbon films: Isotope exchange, soft-layer formation, and steady-state erosion108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3474988View Description Hide Description
We report studies of the interactions of quantified deuterium (hydrogen) atom beams with hard amorphous hydrogenated carbon films at a substrate temperature of in an ultrahigh-vacuum chamber. The modification/erosion of a-C:H (a-C:D) films was monitored in situ by ellipsometry in real time. By interpreting the ellipsometric information and combining it with measurements of the absolute D areal density changes in the a-C:H (a-C:D) films by ion beam analysis as a function of D (H) atom fluence, we are able to distinguish three sequential stages of D interaction with hard a-C:H films. The first stage is replacement of bonded hydrogen by deuterium up to an areal density of to a depth of from the surface. This phase is complete after a deuterium fluence of . The effective cross section for isotopic exchange of H with D atoms for the a-C:H layer is found to be , and is close to the cross section for H abstraction from a carbon surface. This may indicate that H abstraction by D from the a-C:H surface is the rate limiting step for isotope exchange in this situation. Hydrogen replacement is followed by creation of additional C–D bonds in the near-surface region and increases the D areal density by about . By ellipsometry this process can be observed as the formation of a soft a-C:D layer on top of the hard a-C:H bulk film, with the soft layer extending about 1.4 nm from the surface. This stage is complete after a deuterium fluence of about . Subsequently, steady-state erosion of the a-C:H film takes place. Here, a soft a-C:D layer with roughly constant thickness remains on the hard a-C:H substrate and is dynamically reformed as the underlying hard a-C:H film becomes thinner. A similar sequence of processes takes place at a substrate temperature of 650 K, albeit at a much faster rate.
Phase-shift effect in capacitively coupled plasmas with two radio frequency or very high frequency sources108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3475376View Description Hide Description
A two-dimensional fluid model was built to study the argon discharge in a capacitively coupled plasma reactor and the full set of Maxwell equations is included in the model to understand the electromagnetic effect in the capacitive discharge. Two electrical sources are applied to the top and bottom electrodes in our simulations and the phase-shift effect is focused on. We distinguish the difference of the phase-shift effect on the plasma uniformity in the traditional radio frequency discharge and in the very high frequency discharge where the standing wave effect dominates. It is found that in the discharges with frequency 13.56 MHz, the control of phase difference can less the influence of the electrostatic edge effect, and it gets the best radial uniformity of plasma density at the phase difference . But in the very high frequency discharges, the standing wave effect plays an important role. The standing wave effect can be counteracted at the phase difference 0, and be enhanced at the phase difference . The standing wave effect and the edge effect are balanced at some phase-shift value between 0 and , which is determined by discharge parameters.
Dynamics of the plumes produced by ultrafast laser ablation of metals108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3475149View Description Hide Description
We have analyzed ultrafast laser ablation of a metallic target (Nickel) in high vacuum addressing both expansion dynamics of the various plume components (ionic and nanoparticle) and basic properties of the ultrafast laser ablation process. While the ion temporal profile and ion angular distribution were analyzed by means of Langmuir ion probe technique, the angular distribution of the nanoparticulate component was characterized by measuring the thickness map of deposition on a transparent substrate. The amount of ablatedmaterial per pulse was found by applying scanning white light interferometry to craters produced on a stationary target. We have also compared the angular distribution of both the ionic and nanoparticle components with the Anisimov model. While the agreement for the ion angular distribution is very good at any laser fluence (from ablation threshold up to ), some discrepancies of nanoparticle plume angular distribution at fluencies above are interpreted in terms of the influence of the pressure exerted by the nascent atomic plasma plume on the initial hydrodynamic evolution of the nanoparticle component. Finally, analyses of the fluence threshold and maximum ablation depth were also carried out, and compared to predictions of theoretical models. Our results indicate that the absorbed energy is spread over a length comparable with the electron diffusion depth of Ni on the timescale of electron-phonon equilibration and that a logarithmic dependence is well-suited for the description of the variation in the ablation depth on laser fluence in the investigated range.

Growth kinetics of AlN and GaN films grown by molecular beam epitaxy on R-plane sapphire substrates108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3475521View Description Hide Description
This paper reports the growth by molecular beam epitaxy of AlN and GaN thin films on R-plane sapphire substrates. Contrary to previous findings that GaN grows with its A-plane parallel to the R-plane of sapphire, our results indicate that the crystallographic orientation of the III-nitride films is strongly dependent on the kinetic conditions of growth for the GaN or AlN buffer layers. Thus, group III-rich conditions for growth of either GaN or AlN buffers result in nitride films having planes parallel to the sapphire surface, and basal-plane stacking faults parallel to the growth direction. The growth of these buffers under N-rich conditions instead leads to nitride films with planes parallel to the sapphire surface, with inclined -plane stacking faults that often terminate threading dislocations. Moreover, electron microscope observations indicate that slight miscut of the R-plane sapphire substrate almost completely suppresses the formation of twinning defects in the GaN films.
Amorphous copper tungsten oxide with tunable band gaps108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3475714View Description Hide Description
We report on the synthesis of amorphous coppertungsten oxide thin films with tunable band gaps. The thin films are synthesized by the magnetron cosputtering method. We find that due to the amorphous nature, the Cu-to-W ratio in the films can be varied without the limit of the solubility (or phase separation) under appropriate conditions. As a result, the band gap and conductivity type of the films can be tuned by controlling the film composition. Unfortunately, the amorphous coppertungsten oxides are not stable in aqueous solution and are not suitable for the application of photoelectrochemical splitting of water. Nonetheless, it provides an alternative approach to search for transition metal oxides with tunable band gaps.

Posted on 05/31/2014 5:38:06 PM PDT by nickcarraway
There's no doubt Pharrell's "Happy" is the biggest hit of the year so far. It spent 15 weeks at the top of the Billboard 100 and inspired hundreds of fan videos on YouTube.
Just a few weeks ago, six Iranian teenagers got arrested for posting a video of themselves dancing to the catchy song.
So what is it about "Happy" that triggers a nearly uncontrollable need to tap your foot, bob your head or move to the rhythm in some way?
Pharrell Williams. The Record Pharrell Williams On Juxtaposition And Seeing Sounds Rick Blaine, the sentimental tough guy in Casablanca, pined for "As Time Goes By." Shots - Health News Play It Again And Again, Sam It may be more about what's missing from the song than what's there.
Last month neuroscientists at Aarhus University in Denmark published a study showing that danceable grooves have just the right amount of gaps or breaks in the beats. Your brain wants to fill in those gaps with body movement, says the study's lead author, Maria Witek.
"Gaps in the rhythmic structure, gaps in the sort of underlying beat of the music that sort of provides us with an opportunity to physically inhabit those gaps and fill in those gaps with our own bodies," she says.
A few years ago, Witek set out to figure out which songs got people onto the dance floor.
She created an online survey and gave people drum patterns to listen to. Some had really simple rhythms with regular beats. Others had extremely complex rhythms, with lots of gaps where you'd expect beats to be. Finally there were drumming patterns that fell in the middle of those two extremes. They have a regular, predictable beat, but also some pauses or gaps.
Witek says that people all over the world agreed on which drum patterns made them most want to dance: "Not the ones that have very little complexity and not the ones that had very, very high complexity," she says, "but the patterns that had a sort of a balance between predictability and complexity."
These rhythms offer enough regularity so that we can perceive the underlying beat, Witek and her team reported in the journal PLOS ONE. But they also need enough gaps or breaks to invite participants to synchronize to the music.
Jelle van de Wall/YouTube So which popular songs on the radio today have this optimal amount of complexity?
"I think the recent single by Pharrell, 'Happy,' is a very good example," Witek says.
The song is layered with predictable beats and complex, syncopated ones. The drums, the piano, the clapping and even Pharrell's voice create inviting gaps, she says.
But Pharrell isn't the only one who knows about this trick. Classic dance tunes in disco, funk, hip-hop and rhythm and blues also hit this sweet spot of syncopation, Witek says.
"Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder those guys have a lot of tracks which seem to have this balance between predictability and complexity when it comes to the rhythmic structure," she says.
And don't forget about Ray Charles. His 1950s hit "I've Got a Woman" made everybody want to hit the dance floor.
But it's not just a song's syncopation that gets you to go from tapping your foot in your chair to standing up and full-out dancing. It's also the song's layers of rhythm, says neuroscientist Daniel Levitin at McGill University.
"In 'I've Got a Woman,' the drums are keeping a very steady rhythm. The piano is syncopated and the vocals are exquisitely nuanced in time," Levitin says. "It's very difficult to sing along with him [Ray Charles] exactly the way he does it."
So we don't sing with Charles. Instead we want to move with him.
"The more rhythmically complex the music is ... the easier it is to engage different body parts," Levitin says, "because they can be synchronizing with different aspects of the music."
So you're swinging your shoulders with the snare drums. You're bobbing your head with the piano. "And you might be wiggling your hips in half-time or something like that," he says.
Before you know it, you're up out of your chair and doing the twist.
We DO???
But thats it.
It's a black thing.
It should have won the Oscar, much better than that song from frozen.
i love it, it's like a throw back song to the 80s or something.
Broken record.
It is a catchy tune. It has a retro vibe that makes me think of the song "Crazy" from a few years ago.
That was cute.
I've never heard it before, but it's catchy.
I think it throws back to the '60s and Motown.
This is the secret of afro-cuban and samba rhythms.
I HATE that song. And I hated it the very first time I heard it. Juvenile and gay.
It's a damn rare thing to feel joyful these days.
There's no doubt Pharrell's "Happy" is the biggest hit of the year so far
If you say so.
Never heard of Pharrell or the song..........
I would be willing to bet that ignorance is bliss in this case.....
It ain't that pretty at all.
It's got a nice beat and you can dance to it.
Of course, Pharrell also sang on the other huge song of the year, "Get Lucky", which introduced this generation to the greatness that is Nile Rodgers.
Agree on all points. This is the kind of stuff we need more of.
You should give it a listen...you might be surprised.
I think that about the tenth time I heard it I realized it's not about someone who is happy, but rather someone who is profoundly depressed desperately trying to convince himself he's happy.
That song is destined to be a standard.
google "pharell GQ tea party" if you want to see what an ignorant schmuck he is in reality.
I disagree. "Frozen" is an inspiring song. Something I'd like to tell my sons. Sarah Bareilles album with that song is full of really good songs.
Yes he support the Hildabeast for President and consider Tea Party Members as RACIST. That is enough for me to consider him a douche bag no matter how HAPPY is song is.
Thank you for your thoughtful and nuanced review.
Pharrell who? What song?
So you give it a 78? :—)
I always enjoy complex songs with many layers, attacks, pauses, rests, key changes, crescendos, etc. They always keep you guessing. One of the best in recent years is the the Opening Titles song to "John Adams" by Rob Lane. Very martial music. Sends chills down my spine every time.
Absolutely. That's why it is such a nice surprise to see this particular song be such a big hit. Maybe people are getting a wee bit tired of twenty years of rap garbage.
Fighting words to my 8-year-old daughter and her gang of friends who belt out "Let it go" in its entirety at least once a day.
LOL, I'm sure! My own daughter (who is grown up) says "Let it Go" grows on you, for your sake I hope that's right!
To my grand daughters also. I've lost count of how many times I have heard that plus Do You Want To Build A Snowman.
(P)resident Obama has already bookmarked that video for use in the event there is another terrorist attack anywhere in the world.
I have to admit that this song makes me break out in a great big smile and makes me want to dance every time I hear it.
That and I have triplet great nieces and their parents, who refer to them as the Minions put together a Despicable Me themed dance party to celebrate their 6th birthdays along with their 7 year old older sister who has her birthday a week later. They rented a fire hall, made some of the food themselves including Minion cookies and a Minion themed birthday cake and also ordered many, many pizzas and had a friend of theirs who is a professional DJ, DJ the party. Each kid got to invite 3 of their friends from school so along with all their cousins and the neighbors kids and their step sister and two of their cousins who are half black, and my oldest great nieces very best friend who is Japanese; there were probably about 30 kids in all.
I got such a kick out of watching all these little kids dancing and having fun; dancing from everything from the chicken dance and the hokey pokey and YMCA and the Pennsylvania Polka and the Electric Slide and the more recent Cha Cha Slide and even an Elvis song, and the theme song from Frozen, Let It Go and other songs from that movie. But the very best part was at the very end of the party, watching all the little kids and all the adults, including me and the parents and the grandparents all dance to Happy. : ), It was great fun : ),
Chic Good Times. Another song played at just about every wedding Ive ever been to since the early 80s along with I Will Survive. LOL!
I agree that while Good Times was considered a big disco hit at the time, Rodgers is a great funk guitarist - much more funk than disco.
My eldest great niece who is 20 years old loves and is a huge fan of Daft Punk and has gained an appreciation of the classic funk of the 70s as a result.
Yep, sounds like fun alright!

Human Resources Strategy
Human Resources (HR) Vision
In order to realize the corporate philosophy within Mizuho's Corporate Identity of creating lasting value for our customers and the economies and communities of which we are a part, it is important for employees to be able to relate to and take action in line with Mizuho's Corporate Identity. To create such a corporate culture, Mizuho is implementing human resources initiatives in line with its HR Vision.
HR Vision
Mizuho Financial Group firmly believes that the personal development of individual employees contributes to the stable and sustainable growth of Mizuho as a whole.
Mizuho recognizes those employees who make an effort to put the Mizuho Values into practice and helps employees to create a more fulfilling life through their work.
- Mizuho encourages employees to utilize their strengths, and provides opportunities for them to use their skills and to develop their abilities.
- Mizuho encourages employees who differ in terms of gender, country of origin, cultural background, and values to understand, respect, and inspire each other.
- Mizuho works with its employees to create a corporate culture that encourages people to be passionate about and to take pride in their work.
Developing Employees to Better Equip them to Support Business Strategies
Cross–Company Personnel Transfers
In addition to personnel transfers across MHBK, MHTB, MHSC, and other group companies, we also are proactively using programs for training and seconding personnel and transferring personnel hired outside of Japan ("National Staff,"hereinafter NS) to the Head Office as a means of fostering employee development on a group-wide and global scale. By enabling employees to obtain work experience in each group company, we are broadening individual employees' range of experience and perspective while also increasing the depth of mutual understanding among employees in various group companies in a manner that promotes the strengthening of group integration and coordination.
- Number of Cross–company Personnel Transfers between MHBK, MHTB and MHSC
- Number of MHBK, MHTB and MHSC Employees with Experience at Multiple Group Companies
Group–wide Training Programs
In addition to the training programs of each group company designed to enable employees to equip themselves with specialized expertise and business skills in accordance with the strategies of each group unit, our "Mizuho University" framework encompasses training programs focused on MBA curriculum topics, programs to dispatch employees to study at graduate schools and other educational institutions in Japan and around the world, and programs inviting applications for overseas study opportunities as well as group–wide programs that enable NS and Japanese staff to train together at the Head Office. To foster a sense of unity among all the group companies and to create the foundations of close collaboration between those companies, the Group's banking, trust banking, and securities arms cooperat ively implement such career–stage–specific training programs as "joint training for newly hired personnel," "managerial training," and "management-level training courses."
Fostering the Development of Globally–minded Employees
In step with the expansion of our business outside of Japan, we have proactively transferred Japanese staff to overseas posts and training assignments in line with our emphasis on fostering the development of employees who can dynamically benefit our businesses in a global manner.
We are also proactively hiring NS and, to enable NS to realize diverse career paths and fully make use of their potential for contributing to Mizuho's business, we are moving ahead with such measures as those to transfer NS to other countries, appoint NS to high–level positions, and offer NS an augmented range of training opportunities. The Global Career Management Division, which is responsible for NS–related personnel management, has become the first Head Office division in Japan headed by a non–Japanese general manager.
- Change in the Number of NS
Human Resource Management that Encourages Employees to Be Passionate about and Take Pride in Their Work
Putting the Mizuho Values into Practice
We believe that realizing Mizuho's Corporate Identity will require fostering the development of a corporate culture in which each employee takes self–directed action in line with the "Mizuho Values."
The Mizuho Values provide an important reference point regarding employee evaluation, and we are creating systems that facilitate employees' efforts to effectively implement the Mizuho Values during the course of their daily work.
Furthermore, we are measuring the degree of individual employees' efforts to effectively implement the Mizuho Values through the means of "360–degree evaluations," which is a system where an employee is evaluated by colleagues, including direct reports. The 360–degree evaluations not only improve the transparency and acceptance of employee evaluations, but also encourage employees to be proactive in changing their behavior.
Support for Career Development
Mizuho provides diverse kinds of support to enable employees to think about, plan, and develop their own careers going forward. These support methods—such as the "Career Sheet" system, which enables employees to share information about their work experience, area of specialty, and hoped–for assignments with their managers; a career interview system that provides consultations with specialist advisors; the "Job Application System," which enables employees to directly submit applications for new posts; and the "Global Opportunity Program," which offers young NS opportunities to work in Head Office positions—are all designed to help employees pursue the career development paths of their own choice and thereby encourage employees to be passionate about and take pride in their work.

- *Figures represent group–wide averages of responses on a scale of 1 (low) to 5 (high).
Each group company annually confirms the nature of employee opinions by implementing an employee opinion survey, including questions regarding the level of respondents' "Job satisfaction" and "Pride in being a Mizuho employee."
Promoting Diversity
Mizuho is working to create work environments in which employees of different nationality, race, gender, and values can consistently maintain mutual respect for each other while taking full advantage of opportunities to make the most of their individual and collective abilities.
In accordance with our "Four Rs" basic policy on promoting the career development of female employees, we are supporting female employees' careers by enhancing our systems for helping women realize an optimal balance between work and raising a child or assisting family members who require special care, organizing training courses and seminars designed to support female employees' career development, and proactively promoting female employees to management posts. In these and other ways, we are encouraging female employees to be highly motivated and ambitiously seek to fully realize their potential.
- Percentage of Female Management–level Employees
- *March 2012 figure for the Securities division is the sum of the pre–merger MHSC and the pre–merger Mizuho Investor Securities.
We are striving to deepen employees' understanding of diversity and spur changes of perspectives and behavior through initiatives such as regular articles in the group communication magazine and organizing managerial training. At the same time, we are working to establish flexible work systems and tools that support the diverse work styles of employees with a wide variety of personal backgrounds.

What does Alec see...............
...in Cameron Jerome, that nearly every Blues supporter cannot ?
I said it months ago, and I will say it again here and now, Jerome is not and will never be, a Premiership striker. He is championship material at best. Perhaps he will develop in another side, like Andy Johnson did. He was another that couldn't hit a barn door at 10 paces, yet went onto make some sort of success at Palace...if Jerome isn't replaced soon by someone who does have the killer instinct, we will be in trouble.
Come back Kev Phillips, sooner the better for me.
0-0 at home against Wigan...I ask you.!
Glad I don't have to pay, I'd be asking for my money back.
BAH !!This topic is deleted.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
*(Thanks for the kind words Mike. The cheque is in the post ;-} )
Nige, BD and Noiseblue.
I fully understand where you are all coming from.
Yes BD, it's as plain as the nose on ya face that Jerome is not a twenty goal a season player. In fact, he should be at the top of the countries scoring charts if he had put away half of the chances laid for him. I wish he would put his laces through some shots and learn to drop a shoulder when in a one-on-one with the keeper. Why is he sometimes lame with his efforts? Honestly, if he were able to finish properly, he would seriously play for England.
I also agree with the O'Connor situation. Why has the bloke (who was on fire in pre-season) been allowed to go out on loan?
If it is for fitness, then surely the Premier League is the place to play. He would probably put a few more chances in the bag than Jerome anyway.
I like both players, and (IMO) they would make a good partnership up front with KP as a 20/30 min impact player.
If they don't cut the mustard then Derbyshire with Gaz O'C.
Zigic for me is a complete flop at the moment. Surely during training sessions he will learn all about the English game. Or do they practice other things?
Remember the old joke aimed at Crouch but instead this time Zigic is the punch line?
Who is 6' 8" standing and 6' 9" when jumping?
Christ Almighty. Give me strength.
In Eck we trust.
I have said the same myself about Alex Mcliesh since just after he arrived. I think he wants to be relegated again just so he can gain promotion to prove him self
- 1 Reply to nosieblue
Do my eyes deceive me?
Big Eck has achieved more in three years than the three managers before him put together.
He inhereted a crap team from Brucie and despite his best efforts with a poor side he almost kept us up. He then gained promotion, got us to the FA cup Q/F, finished higher than most can honestly remember, unbeaten at Stans for a year......
And all you can do is fcuking moan!
We are not Chelsea or ManUre. We are a small Premier League side punching well above their weight.
This is bullshit.
Fcuk it.

Top Rank: $100K Fight Bonus For Rios vs Gamboa Winner
By Jake Donovan
In the event that there actually is a fight on April 14 between unbeaten rising stars Brandon Rios and Yuriorkis Gamboa, great news awaits the winner.
"We're putting up a $100,000 fight bonus, winner takes all for this fight," Top Rank President Todd deBuof announced to the media on hand for Tuesday's press conference at the Biltmore Millennium Hotel in Los Angeles. "We're doing it because this fight deserves something greater. You fans want it, so let's see how hungry these fighters are to bring this sport back to the principles of boxing."
Top Rank initially flirted with the idea of a fight bonus – which is currently used in UFC events – to all future opponents for Nonito Donaire to avoid stinkers like the one produced in the non-effort turned in by then-unbeaten 115 lb. titlist Omar Narvaez in their HBO-televised headliner in New York City last October. The plan never quite materialized beyond speculation, though it hardly mattered in the Filipino's next fight as he was able to get past former titlist Wilfredo Vazquez Jr this past February.
However, the Las Vegas-based promotional outfit felt it was necessary for a fight of this magnitude, though more for symbolic purposes, a way to put the prize back in prizefighting. The buzz surrounding the immediate news of this matchup was that it was a guaranteed Fight of the Year contender, despite a wide variance in predictions.
For the moment, the greatest concern is not who will be the one to collect a bonus, but if there will actually be a fight to offer such a reward.
Gamboa was a no-show at the presser for the second straight day. He surprised everyone on hand at the Miami leg of the press tour by not bothering to attend, instead remaining back in Las Vegas where he is presently working out in Floyd Mayweather's gym. As recent as this morning, he was on record informing all to not expect him in Los Angeles.
Rios and Top Rank still followed the scheduled itinerary and were on hand to speak. When the subject arose of an extra $100,000 offered for winning the fight, Rios' eyes lit up like a kid opening presents.
"I like that $100,000 bet," Rios (29-0-1, 22KO) said in stating the obvious. The unbeaten Californian is coming off of an 11th round knockout of John Murray, but in a fight where he had to concede his title at the scale after missing weight.
He has since enlisted the services of reformed nutritionist Victor Conte in efforts to make the 135 limit. In doing so, the vacant version of the belt he previously held will be at stake in the fight, though Rios seems more fascinated with the thought of a little extra cash in his pocket.
"That's got my name on it already, right," Rios jokingly asked. "I'm ready to take it right now."

Solutions for Chapter 4
At low conversions in the reactor, unreacted reactants in the reactor outlet are usually recycled to the reactor feed. However, if there are inert contaminants in the fresh feed or if there are byproducts of the reaction that are not easily separated from the recycled reactants, these will build up if recycled. Purge is a way to eliminate inert contaminants or byproducts without requiring difficult separations. The disadvantage of purge is that some of the reactants are purged as well.

This item is in wonderful condition, I left the original frame on.
Frame size : 16" x 22" Image size : 8.5" x 13.75"
If you would like more pictures or information regarding this work of art, please e-mail me, and I will gladly answer you, as quickly as possible.
About the artist : William Allister (1919-2008) (as per the Globe and Mail Nov. 2008)
"In my paintings I like to play the music of the Past on the instruments of the Future."
"As an artist, I would paint toward peace, paint as I'd never painted before, stretching to the limits, soaring, exploring new forms, new harmonies...Visions of giant canvases marrying East and West unfolded before me..." from "Where Life and Death Hold Hands", by William Allister.
Born in Manitoba, William Allister's adventurous career took him to the far corners of the earth. As an actor in Hollywood, soldier in Hong Kong, P.O.W. in Japan during World War II, writer in New York and Mexico, painter in Montreal and British Columbia.
His first novel, A HANDFUL OF RICE, won a first prize for literature in 1961, and was translated into Dutch and Norwegian. He also holds 9 international first prizes for documentary films. In 1986 he was presented with an Author's Award by the League for the Advancement of Canadian Letters.
In his twin career as a painter, he held over 30 one-man shows. His work is in collections in Canada, France, South Africa, Mexico, the U.S. and Japan, and reproductions of his work are sold worldwide. The "EAST WEDS WEST" collection was shown to enthusiastic audiences at the Asian Centre, U.B.C., the Richmond Art Gallery of B.C., the Gallery of Greater Victoria. In 1993 it was exhibited at the Canadian Embassy Gallery in Tokyo, sponsored by the Canadian Government, to coincide with the opening of THE ART OF COMPASSION, an hour long documentary film on his life, and aired nationally on CBC-TV and locally on the Knowledge Network.
William Allister's memoir, WHERE LIFE AND DEATH HOLD HANDS ( Stoddart Publishing 1989, paperback edition 2000, Restila Publishing) was published in Japanese in 2001, and won the Canadian Prime Minister's Award for the promotion of inter-cultural relations.
Now internationally acclaimed, Allister`s powerful and thought-provoking work continues to captivate audiences from around the world.

The best dr ever
He's been my doc for 10 years. Love him :) he's been through loss with me and delivered my daughter.
I've never written a review before, but I feel this is so deserving. Dr. Fleishman recently delivered my baby girl via an unplanned c-section at Healthpark hospital and did an unbelievably amazing job. I guess unfortunately it is often these days that some doctors do not have proper bedside manner and treat their patients like a number rather than a person. As an expecting mommy, we all know this is the worst feeling to have. Dr. Fleishman is a doctor who genuinely cares about the mom and wants to make her feel comfortable. He did everything in his power to make me feel at ease and comfortable prior to my csection. He treated me very endearing, made me feel like a person, talked to me, addressed my concerns and actually helped me to feel calm before going into a major surgery (which by the way, I was a nervous wreck). During the surgery, he performed everything so gracefully and professionally. His staff and the nurses in the operating room at HealthPark were also so amazing with me. My husband and I thank each and everyone of them. We are beyond grateful. They let me see my Daughter immediately and I got to bond with her instantly. If c sections were always practiced like this, moms wouldn't be so terrified of them. He even had a large mirror In the room and offered to have me watch my baby come out, so I could get the "full experience" but I opted out, no thanks I am not that brave -yet, lol. I did not feel any pain and my recovery is going very well. I am successfully breastfeeding and able to walk around. We thank God for Dr. Fleishman who delivered our beautiful little baby and we will always remember him as the doctor who really sincerely cared and have the utmost respect for him. He is not just a really good doctor but also a really good person. With many doctors being so tired and rundown, it is truly enlightening to have been able to find that doctors like him exist in the world that take the time to make you feel so cared for. Looking back, I wouldn't have wanted anyone else to deliver my baby and am forever thankful he was the one to do it. I recommend that everyone go see this doctor; he is truly gifted and you won't regret it.
Dr. Fleishman is one the best doctors I have ever been a patient of!
I know from first hand he is an amazing doctor. He has performed surgery on me and he is wonderful. I go to him when I absolutely need help and he has always been there, I highly recommend him.
I have been seeing Dr. Fleishman for years. He is such a caring, concerned, polite thorough doctor. I would not want to see anyone else. He has taken care of me and he is always on the cutting edge of new things in health care. He truly cares! I would never go anywhere else! My and my husband both love him!
I LOVE Dr. Fleishman, Always caring and helpful and understanding!!!!!!
With my previous pregnancy I saw a different doctor. I was very unhappy with him so I started seeing Dr. Fleishman. Dr. Fleishman is a great doctor. I am extremely happy with him. He always takes the time to answer all my questions and I never feel rushed. My previous pregnancy was very difficult but Dr. Fleishman is doing everything he can do to help with my next pregnancy. I would absolutely recommend him.
He is a great doctor! this is my very first pregnancy and i could never ask for a better doctor, he answered all my questions and always had time to talk to me. he was never once in a rush! it was great!

Ox, mighty and strong yet timid and slow at times. During the months of 2009, the Ox symbolically represented the stagnant stage of our economy and the weight of recession. As we, the people, headstrong perservered and accomplished our daily task and plowed through life's challenges and collected rewards not without sacrifices. Another year has closed again and not only we begin the new year but also count to an end of a decade. Hoping that 2010 will bring much needed turning points in all four corners of the earth. What I wish for others is really what I wish for myself.
1. Exercise – I am not merely referring to physical attributes but more to the heart. Find the real 'you' exercise compassion. Cultivate kindness.
2. Legacy – What we leave behind is much more significant than what we take with us.
3. Bondage- We must have the courage to change and challenge old traditions resulting to convergence of universe instead of collision. Free ourselves from the comfort of ignorance.
4. Justice -How we treat others is paradoxically different than how we care for them.
5. Spirituallity – is not a system nor a foundation but a tool for navigating our lives properly. It is the hidden path to God.
Network for hope. Network for peace. Network for love. Network for kindness. Only through pure processes we will cultivate our inner gem and begin healing the ailments within and throughout the world.

If you stand long enough in reverence, a mosquito buzzing in your ear might just interrupt your moment of reflection in the summer time heat but above all, a feeling of longing of 'just one more time" here on section 3 row 67 site 29. Pass the shopping centers; pass the neighborhoods, off the interstate: the American flag wave over plot 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36 …
I remember holding my father's hand when he was gravely ill. His hands were full of calluses and fingernails embedded with motor grease. Wear and tear from years of putting food on the table for the family. I read the lines on his hand like a fortune teller looking for stories about his life. If he held a rifle during the post World War II, I couldn't find a sign of it on his palm. The lines intersected and I read nothing. He was dying and I barely knew him. He couldn't speak anymore. Stroke got the best of him. So I held his hand against my cheek rough like a sandpaper, I thought "Just one more time" for a story like when he was a boy and his best friend was a water buffalo, or how about that story when he was stationed in Guam looking for the 'enemy'. I wasn't paying attention when he told me the first time.
So there in section 3 row 67 site 29. He is amongst company: A 21 year old from Operation Desert Storm, an 80 year old from the Korean War, "Stew" who fought in Afghanistan, John from the Vietnam War, a lieutenant from World War I and his wife, an 'unknown' from Iraq war. My father lies amongst soldiers surrounded by freshly cut carnations and teddy bears. Plastic pumpkins in the fall and evergreens in the winter, miniature American flag on Independence Day and pillow hearts on Valentine's Day. Gone but not forgotten. Forever love and perpetually miss these soldiers and my father.
On my last visit, I saw a mother and her toddler. She brushed the headstone while her toddler adorns it with acorns. The act was so intimate I felt like I didn't belong and as I was leaving the grounds, Taps softly played. Tears were shed for another soldier coming home.

Disney housing
Walt Disney thought his experimental city could include homes ever changing as new technology and building materials evolved. Instead, his successors built Celebration, a new town at the southern end of Walt Disney World. The homes are permanent and privately owned, so any changes will be up to the owners. But Disney's famous penchant for a controlled environment is evident in design guidelines home builders and owners have to follow. A new project is Golden Oak, a 450-unit, luxury-home project near the center of Disney World, where buyers are just now moving in. Return to main story

This was our first stay at the Magnolia House. It was quaint, historic and beautiful. It was very clean. Beds were quite comfortable. The A/C dealt with the muggy heat quite well. Our rooms were well-maintained, albeit a bit dark, however, this is typical of old houses. Breakfast was a very large portion and over-the-top with taste. The 'hospitality' amenity room was a welcome surprise with drinks, water, and snacks for free. The grounds were well-manicured. The innkeepers were very attentive, hospitable, and helpful. We highly recommend this B&B to those visiting the Lexington area.

Our stay at the Magnolia House was fabulous. Besides a B&B having accommodation for our son, which is unusual in a B&B, the service was excellent. Tim and Jan made us feel right at home. There were many sitting areas/porches to enjoy. The fresh baked cookies 24 hours a day were a delight to my son. Will definately return.

Hi All,
I am so close to finishing this process.
I created a child theme for Spa Salon and did all of my edits and changes. Now, I just used the plugin Duplicator to take it from my local server go daddy, however there are some formatting issues. See site here - http://www.shantisalonflagstaff.com
For example the shanti in the banner should be as large as salon, the three 155X250 pictures are not showing and I replaced the "call us on" with a custom logo which is not there- all of these work great on local host but changed when I switched to a live server. Can anyone give me any insight on how to keep it the same!
I've called GoDaddy and we've tried taking it live several times with the exact same formatting issues each time.
Please help!
