"First book started strong then died here."
The plot had potential, but the characters had to become rather stupid to move the story along.
Absolutely hated the ending. If I had known what the ending was going to be I could have saved a few hours of my life to mow my sidewalk.
Narrator was awesome.
The overall story has real potential but the characters just started acting stupider than was established in the first book.
"Not as good as the first one..."
I am a huge Orson Scott Card Fan and have been waiting eagerly for this book to come out - maybe that is why I was kind of disappointed.... It is still good, but the first one was better.
"Interesting Story, But Horrible Performance"
I would not have used two narrators. The woman (Emily) is incredibly over dramatic. It sounds like she is reading a dramatic play to a 5th grader. She reads with a sense of breathy wonder that is completely ridiculous. This coupled with the fact that the book is about a teenager makes the book feel unnecessarily juvenile.Stephan was better, but also overly dramatic.
No. The performances sort of ruined the books for me. I was interested in the story, but I had to keep convincing myself to keep listening despite the performances.
Maybe. I have been doing a lot of driving, so it was a good enough way to pass the time, but Game of Thrones was much better.
"Good sequel"
This is the middle book of a planned trilogy. Many authors have had trouble with the middle of their trilogies; think of the Lord of the Rings. I liked the first book in this series better than this one, but I definitely plan to buy the next one.
I liked much about this book (and its predecessor). I like the double fantasy: Part of the action takes place here on Earth in the present and part of the action takes place on another planet which is more like your typical sword and sorcery fantasy world (Medieval setting; kings and peasants; swords and mages, etc.) I like the world-building. Card's novels always show that he puts in considerable thought into how the science or fantasy work in his worlds. He really thinks about the background stuff. I like the two narrators. One, a man, narrates everything that takes place on Earth; and the other, a woman, narrates everything that takes place on the other planet. This makes it easy to follow the switches in location. I liked the explanation that different mythologies actually reflect families of mages who lived in particular parts of the world: One family lived in Scandinavia, so they are known in mythology as Odin, Thor, Loki, etc. Another family lived in Greece and were known in mythology as Zeus, Mercury, etc. I liked the unfolding of the plot. In the first book, the story is mostly about Danny trying to survive and trying to figure out how to use his powers without any living tutor to mentor him. But in this book, a deeper problem unfolds.
Now to the things I didn't like. I didn't like the amount of time spent on discussions of sex. Danny is an adolescent boy; this means he's horny all the time. I get it. But it doesn't interest me. I also didn't like the portrayal of virtually every girl in the book (not the women; just the girls). It seemed that every single adolescent girl in the book was just as obsessed as Danny with sex, and they one-and-all come on to him. I have read other young adult books in which adolescent horniness reared its head and I didn't mind it, but in this book I found it unpleasant. In fact, I didn't care for most of the repartee among Danny and his high school friends. I didn't feel that it contributed to the story, either. Maybe it will become more apparent in the third book why Card felt it necessary to add these kids.
Now I'd like to comment on the woman from North Carolina who says she can never read another Card book because Jesus is mentioned once in this book. She reminds me of those fanatic Christians who wouldn't let their children read the Harry Potter books. (I had a 13 or 14-year-old student who was reading an adult romance novel that had quite a lot of pretty explicit sex, and that was okay with her mother, but she wasn't allowed to read the Harry Potter books, because magic comes from the devil.) Don't they understand the concept: FICTION? And in fact, I thought the question of whether Jesus was one of the mages in these families was left very much up in the air.
Okay, bottom line: I liked this book. As far as I can tell at this moment, I think the complete trilogy is going to be terrific. If you haven't read the first book in this series, I would recommend that you do. Read them in order.
P.S. There is another story which Audible has which takes place on the second planet in this series and the magic system is the same. It is called "Stone Father" and it is novella-length. I liked it a lot.
Lots of books lots of time. I love all things Star Wars and fantasy. The Bartimaeus trilogy (or quad) maybe the perfect series. Jonathan Stroud and Douglas Adams are my heroes.
"Not Ender"
To a friend, no because I keep my nerdery close to the vest. But to a fantasy fan, YES!
I like the coolness of Stone. He's a nice guy with a consistent personality. I also like Wad/Loki. Loki is a tragic, smart, awful creature...
When Danny drops the goons in the ocean. It was a glimpse into his potential abuse of power. I liked the emergence and abruptness of the act.
Yep, I bing listen when I have been waiting for the story to continue.
Whatever you think of OSC, his offbeat politics, etc. He's a great story teller. This series is well worth a listen.
I have read everything Card has written, this book is pure formula. I hope it isn't a warning bell of things to come. The performance was great, the book was not.
Probably - because he has written well in the past and I hope he will again.
I enjoyed the books beginning - the first two chapters drew you in. After that, it became predictable.
I'm actually a day old tart, filled with maple custard. Perhaps, this reads as a rational introduction to others, and you are deliberately misreading it, because, come on, maple custard.
"He didn't even turn into a golden swan."
I agree with the reviews that are put off by the infatuation of teenage pregnancy. Orson Scott Card's books often come across as a pedantically cyclical read, so when the topic get's brought up, suddenly all the teenage girls in the story are obsessed with it in the same very disturbing and stupefied way. Grabbing at men's waists and demanding men 'put their baby inside me,' was an approach my mother must have missed. It's incredibly insulting to young women that this is how their teenage interests are portrayed. Really think about your teenage experience, and try to count on one hand the number of girls in your school, who would do this, and throw themselves at boys like this.
The dialogue is all in the same kidney, this adds to the cycling feeling of the book. It could almost be one person arguing with them self. The sentence structure, word usage, lines of thought, etc. cohere so that there are some golden opportunities for OSC's brand of humor, but it's not often believable that you are listening to several people talk, just one man's interpretation of a conversation.
OSC tackles Christianity, and a lot of other religions, legends, and myths, in this book. I'm not religious, but if you are, fair warning, he reinterprets the big J into his canon. Neil Gaiman did this in American Gods, then went back and edited him out, and it probably saved him some angry readers.
Stefan Rudnicki has a super creaky deep voice, like someone is opening and shutting an old door. Emily Rankin tried to match his voice in this book, which made her voice croak and crack. And to get what they are saying, you can't just dim the volume until you can just barely hear the words. The croaking is still loud before the words fuzz out. It's okay in the short term, but after a few hours it starts to hurt. When I took my ear buds out, I couldn't hear all that well for a few days.
The storyline is original. The plot twists aren't too severe. The book ambles, but it stays pretty cut and dry sequential. It'll be great for a solid OSC fan, but it's not Ender's Game.
Audiobook Junkie... Love all types of Science Fiction
"Bad Second Book For The Most Part"
I thought the first book had a lot of potential, but then it started to go down hill towards the end. I had hoped this second installment would have started off better than it did and I felt the need to stop every half hour to get through the first half of the story. In fact, with a little editing I think we could have started with the second part (last 5 hours) of this recording. However, I did not find this novel without some redeeming qualities. But I can not recommend this for adults or young adults as it stands. For the record, I preordered this book and would have given the first in the series a five star review if I had purchased it on audible and not through itunes when it originally came out.
The Gate Thief picks up at the creation of the great gate. You should expect more of the same to continue from the end of book one for quite a long time. I started to really dislike the main character for being an insolent, foolish, and childish. If you like that sort of high school maturity scene then maybe you'll love this book. I could see someone relating this experience to that of listening to the Percy Jackson series because of the correlation with characters in high school, greek mythology, and super powers.
A big issue I found with this novel was the filler and immature teenage dialog between the characters. Some of it felt like an inappropriate teenage soap opera. Orson Scott Card (OSC) tries to explain that he wanted to give a thorough explanation of events so we would understand everything in the closing of this book, but I found some needless repeating of events. Often we experience occurrences, reasoning, and conclusions through the perspective of two different characters. There is also a need to explore, rationalize and philosophize through Danny's powers which brought back memories of the Pathfinder series. Another big mistake with this novel was the romantic angel. Danny has many girls trying to have his "babies" and sex with him. This definitely got a few few eye rolls from me. OSC is somewhat crude in his writing. We know this from Ender. He will be blatant about nudity, promiscuity, and bodily functions. We get the pleasure of listening to the characters talk about spying on girls in bathroom, peeing, pooping, and whole shebang that many authors tend to leave out. Overall, I mostly found the writing involving Danny to be sophomoric, predictable and staged, while finding other dialog repetitive.
So, the space time talk is back. I disliked his pathfinder series for its philosophical approach and it appears OSC's new obsessive focus on this topic has splashed over to this novel as well. 'Young child set off with self discovery for new powers but is confounded with that darn space time,' sound familiar? I shouldn't be surprised that this happened, but I guess I expected him to do a better job at separating his books since he is putting both these series out so close together.
Now, were there any redeeming qualities to this book? Yes, I thought that the other world OSC created with Wad (aka Loki the "gate thief") had some great characters developing and plots unfolding. It was a complete change from the teenage day dream world the character Danny North was living in. The narration wasn't fantastic, but it helped in this instance to have two narrators for each world. I didn't like the voice that portrayed Danny and the people from middle guard. Maybe it was due to the deep voice that came off monotone.
Anyhow, here is a passage I found amusing coming from OSC, a very outspoken anti gay marriage man.
"Girls were all man mages when you thought about it. They wrap guys around their fingers and drag them anyway they want it. First time I have ever envied the gay thought Danny. But then he had to admit to himself, being honest, he felt nothing of the kind."
Religion eventually is tied into this world of magic and I will give OSC credit for being thorough with trying to make this universe believable. An explanation for the Devil and Jesus is put forward. But we all know OSC's true God is space time. We get a long 15 minute explanation on why he wrote what he wrote at the end of this book. If you are looking to be a writer, maybe this is helpful, but it sounded like a lot of needless justifications to me.
"Enough already..."
From OSC probably...Stefan Rudicki and Emily Rankin ruined the book for me.
ANYONE would have been a better choice for the voice of a 14/15/16 yr old Danny North than Stefan Rudnicki. Its hard to picture a kid with a deep baritone voice.
Extreme Disappointment
Enough with a nerdy teenager having girls throw themselves at you and consistently being the better person and telling them no.The premise is insulting and ridiculous. Insulting that very girl he seems to know wants to sleep with him and ridiculous that hes so morally superior at 16 that he tells them ALL no. It gets to the point where its boring and even a bit preachy. Maybe with a different narrator it wouldnt have seemed so bad but I wish I had read the rest of the reviews a bit closer and maybe not chosen to get this book in audio.
"Good story, not well paced- needed more editing"
I would not recommend this book unless it was on a great sale, as it was a few days ago. It is a good story, but the author gets bogged down over and over again discussing motives and inner narrative that doesn't advance the story that the book is rather tedious. The performers do a good job with the material- it would be worse reading it in paper form. It needed to be cut in half in terms of the content that is there, and more plot needs to be added. All in all, the editor dropped the ball on this book.
Yes- I love a lot of his other books, from Enchantment to Ender's Game. This one is weak tea in comparison.

Bike tourism: A triple bottom line
This morning I met with Jim Sayer, Executive Director of Adventure Cycling. For those who aren't aware, NCBW and Adventure Cycling go way, way back. For now I will skip the history lesson, but suffice it to say that much of the DNA of national bicycling advocacy can be traced back to Missoula, Montana. Much of what was spawned in Missoula has been dispersed to Washington DC and the four corners of the country, but Adventure Cycling, and NCBW's own John Williams remain… to keep it real.
I don't think about bike tourism often; talking with Jim is a reminder that I (and we) should. Here's why: 1) infrastructure accommodations for bicycle tourism help support local cycling; 2) bicycle tourism builds small businesses; 3) tourism can be big bucks to a state's economy; and 4) small business support translates into clout with Congress and DOTs when it comes to preserving Transportation Enhancements and recreational trails in the federal transportation bill. Tourism and recreation is apolitical.
Some states, Oregon for one, are mining gold from their promotion and support of bicycle tourism. Pro Walk/Pro Bike 2012 will highlight some of these best practices and give you access to people like Jim who are bringing a triple bottom line approach to making America more bicycle-friendly.

Take a sneak peek at the new NIST.gov and let us know what you think!
(Please note: some content may not be complete on the beta site.).
The Smart Grid National Coordination project leads, coordinates and manages the national public-private stakeholder partnership effort to accelerate development of interoperability standards for the smart grid, fulfilling NIST's statutory responsibility under the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA). NIST's highly visible leadership of smart grid standardization efforts helps to ensure that the estimated $400 billion of industry smart grid investment over the next 20 years in the U.S. will be interoperable and secure, and promotes international harmonization and alignment to maximize the ability of U.S. manufacturers to compete in a global smart grid market. The project also provides programmatic leadership of NIST-wide smart grid measurement science research conducted in the Engineering Laboratory, the Information Technology Laboratory, and the Physical Measurement Laboratory.
Objective - This project leads, coordinates and manages the national public-private stakeholder partnership effort to accelerate development of interoperability standards for the smart grid, fulfilling NIST's statutory responsibility under the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA), and provides programmatic leadership of NIST-wide smart grid measurement science research.
What is the new technical idea? NIST leadership, coordination and acceleration of smart grid interoperability standards development are key responsibilities established under the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA). NIST's national and international coordination efforts engage the broad range of smart grid stakeholders to identify their needs and to ensure that these priorities are addressed in the ongoing smart grid interoperability standards development process. Key stakeholders include industry, other federal agencies such as the Department of Energy (DOE), Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), and White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), state and local agencies, Congress, trade associations, standard setting organizations (SSOs), universities, and other governments. NIST established the Smart Grid Interoperability Panel (SGIP) as a primary mechanism for "input and cooperation" with the private sector and other agencies in developing the smart grid interoperability framework. Initially funded entirely by the government, with NIST encouragement it transitioned to a private-public nonprofit organization SGIP 2.0, Inc., with a majority of funding provided by the private sector. This transition enabled NIST to increase its focus on challenging measurement science research barriers that require NIST's unique capabilities to address.
What is the research plan? The project has three components: Smart Grid Secretariat, Smart Grid Interoperability Panel, and Smart Grid Measurement Science Program Development and Management.
Smart Grid Secretariat
The Framework and Roadmap for Smart Grid Interoperability Standards, published by NIST in January 2010 (Release 1.0) and updated in February 2012 (Release 2.0), provides the smart grid industry and U.S. regulators the foundational guidance on architecture, standards, testing and certification, and cybersecurity based on consensus industry input and a comprehensive public review process. The Smart Grid Secretariat is coordinating the development and review of a draft Release 3.0 update of the NIST Framework in collaboration with the SGIP and other stakeholders and technical resources. The NIST Framework Release 3.0 will be finalized and published in FY14.
The Smart Grid Secretariat actively promotes the results of NIST's smart grid program through publications in industry journals and invited talks at technical programs of major smart grid conferences and workshops. These opportunities showcase the results of the NIST Smart Grid Program and its impact.
Smart Grid Interoperability Panel
Smart Grid Measurement Science Program Development and Management
This effort provides management oversight and technical direction for the ongoing and new smart grid-related research projects in the Engineering Laboratory, the Information Technology Laboratory, and the Physical Measurement Laboratory that are described in the other projects under the Smart Grid Program. Staff works closely with the leadership of the Labs to allocate resources for the projects, conduct periodic program and project reviews, monitor progress, and assess impact. A key goal is to identify and initiate select new efforts to address critical measurement needs across the NIST-wide research portfolio. This effort is informed by the Federal Advisory Committee and broader industry/academic input on barriers that NIST should address. An August 2012 workshop convened by NIST in partnership with the Renewable and Sustainable Energy Institute (RASEI) of the University of Colorado identified the research and measurement challenges impeding Smart Grid development and deployment in two published workshop reports. The project is using these inputs to inform the priorities and strategy for the research program and drive its future development.
An important focus area for the Office is to advance system engineering, simulation, modeling and validation of the smart grid. The Office will be supporting a cooperative agreement with a leading academic organization to study the issues related to the complex network-systems nature of the evolving smart grid as a cyber-physical system. The cooperative agreement provides a mechanism to initiate and establish a collaboration between organizations that includes a platform for integrating remote simulation capability with the hardware and data to be available through the NIST smart grid testbed. This represents an important initial step towards the long term goal to establish a project on system level simulation and modeling of the smart grid.

Take a long, hard look at the orange beast you see above this text. Look at the four axles. Look at the surface area on those eight 21-inch wheels with massive tires. Look at the 3.9 tons of pure power. It's called the Avtoros Wamah Shaman, and it's an amphibious beast of an SUV. We spotted it at the Moscow International Auto Salon, and instantly began dreaming of the ridiculous adventures we could get into. Though we haven't decided whether or not we're going to drop the $165,000 needed to buy it, here are 10 awesomely fun ideas we came up with.

Italian Doc Remix (IDR) is the result of the artistic exchange between Marco Cappelli and Jim Pugliese, whose mutual reverence for the villages' ritual music brought them to the following statement:
reflect the process of memory's distortion of the second/third immigrants generation, living in the new yorker cultural melting pot with a strong traditional back ground; give back to the audience a music at the same time far from the original source–for geographic, chronological and cultural reasons–and full of tradition's elements: impossible to fit in any conventional standard.

Yet More on Elliott Carter at Juilliard
Another review of this ongoing performance series.
Elliott Carter has touched on just about every musical format in his long and prolific career, but chamber music is where he has always seemed the most comfortable, or at least the most inclined to experiment with language and texture. The Juilliard School has taken that point to heart in this year's weeklong Focus! festival, which celebrates Mr. Carter's music. The first and last concerts offer orchestral works; the rest cut a wide swath through his chamber music, old and new.

Eye-splitting din
Members of Wolf Eyes and various related groups are profiled.
As internationally known experimentalists, Wolf Eyes — Young, Olson and Mike Connelly — drags audiences back in time to the brutal, primordial origin of sound, summoning what can be sensed and felt, but not intellectually known (not even necessarily heard, what with all that noise). Such albums as Black Vomit, a project with renowned jazz-man Anthony Braxton, and songs called "Meat Wallet," "Rusted Mange" and "Stabbed in the Face" (from 2006's Sub Pop release Human Animal) rattle your spine and cram your head with shivering visuals. Sounds produce images.
Nicole Mitchell Interview
Flautist Mitchell is interviewed.
The best jazz flautist around today is back with another strong album. Chicago-based Mitchell's imaginative arrangements showcase her versatile playing in its best light. The album starts in a swinging head/solo/head fashion then moves into more involved song structures as the disc wears on. Jeff Parker's presence on guitar substitutes for Mitchell's expansive use of percussion on her first three records. His rhythmic contributions often sit where the percussion once was and on more impressionistic tracks, like the beautiful "Sun Cycles,†adds many different colours. "The Creator Has Other Plans For Me†is a great riff on the title of the too-often covered Leon Thomas/Pharoah Sanders tune, while "Love Has No Boundaries†is greasy blues that breaks into a killer vocal riff by the end of the song. Like the Association for Advancement for Creative Musicians in Chicago, of which she is co-president, her music runs the gamut from blues to minimalism to freedom. Black Unstoppable is brimming with soul, the kind you need in your windy city during these winter months.

As I'm about to retire this old thing, I thought I'd put it up on Dribbble as a bit of a testament as to where I've come from in terms of web design. :)
This is the original theme I created for my blog back when I first brought it online in 2008. It was designed in purely in Photoshop, and built on top of the default WordPress theme at the time.
The theme's served me well in these past 5 years, but as the trends of web design have changed (Not to mention the types of web-enabled hardware that's come around since 2008), it's time to retire this thing and replace it with something a bit more contemporary. :)

I recently installed the Fotobook plugin and on my photo page (my theme is custom made) the There are no albums text appears three times above the header, see here, http://www.golf1.is/myndir/
Any1 know how this can be fixed ?
Just by chance are you able to import your photos correctly? I'm having the same issue only it's with albums that aren't pulling in photos properly and shows 2 lines of the text for me.
I'm thinking it's definitely something along the lines of the custom theme is using a hook that fotobook is also using and possibly may be screwing with queries of some sort.
Also, if you have access to your database - if there aren't any photos showing on your site. Look inside the database to see if they properly pulled into the database. If they're in the database and not showing up on your page, it's most definitely a mysql_query hook conflicting.
Let me know if this helps as I'm troubleshooting myself as well. If I come across a solution for this I will obviously let you know as well.
Thanks for this Ryan
I will have a look at this and let you know.
Hi guys,
This bug is due to recent changes to the Facebook API. More specifically in concerning Fotobook among similar affected apps, as of the 1st of August 2012 the 'prompt_permission' endpoint(among others) has been deprecated, as described in the link below.
Fotobook can access and get permissions regarding 'Basic Info' which seem to be done in Step 1 of the Fotobook Account Setup, but it fails at getting the 'photo' and 'video' access permissions which is attempted in Step 2. Hence the error you see on Facebook when attempting to complete Step 2 'Request Permissions' using WordPress Fotobook in the Fotobook Settings/Setup page:
ERROR: This endpoint has been deprecated. To temporarily reenable it, you may disable the "august_2012" platform migration. It will be disabled permanently on August 1, 2012.
I finally figured out a fix for this myself, based on the new way of requesting permissions using the Facebook API, described in the link below:
Ideally, the changes should be implemented in the Fotobook Code, but given certain legal implications I'm not sure how feasible that would be, unless permission is granted by the Fotobook owner/developer.
However, You CAN work-around this without getting into the code.
Here is the Solution:
Note: You might have to first remove your Facebook account from Fotobook, as well as remove the Fotobook App from Facebook, before you attempt the solution.
1)Install latest version of Fotobook on your WordPress Host, making sure it has PHP 5
2)Under Settings -> Fotobook in wordpress, Complete 'Step 1' of Facebook Account Authentication, closing the popup window when requested by the message displayed.
3)Press 'Step 2: Request Permissions' button, which should take you to the Facebook popup with the deprecation Error. Close this popup window and immediately open a new tab in your browser. Paste the following url into the address bar of the new tab and press enter (I presume client_id and app_id are the same for you guys, since they correspond to Fotobook ID):
4)You should now be able to allow Fotobook permissions to access your Facebook photos and videos by pressing allow.
5)Go back to WordPress Settings -> Fotobook and complete the Facebook account setup by clicking on 'Step3: Apply Permissions' button.
6)You should now be able to Import the Albums from your account, as expected.
This worked for me. Let me know if you have any troubles with it.
I haven't been able to find any other solution on the web, even though lots of people are having issues with it since the 1st of August.
Best regards,
Sebastian Csadi
Thanks so much Sebastian, this worked perfectly for me.

Bell Curve
You created the cure for cancer! Unfortunately, six months after taking the miracle drug, everyone who tried it grows a second head. We're afraid you're in a bit of trouble.
You teach high school chemistry. Sandra in the second row is wondering if she might have any with you. Better steer clear of that one.
You work for a small manufacturing company, testing various materials and making recommendations for improvement. They wanted to make a better car tire; instead they made flubber. It's ai-ight.
You work for a major pharmaceutical company, and are assigned to a team attempting to design a completely effective baldness reversal drug. While it will be great if you're successful, hair will still not cancel out some people's ugly.
Working independently with financial backing, you personally found a cure for Alzheimer's. No one will ever forget what you have done, not even old people.

A fallacious argument in the finite time thermodynamics concept of endoreversibility83(1998); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.367237View Description Hide Description
Finite time thermodynamics is a well established field of applied thermodynamics. The key assumption of this approach is the validity of the concept of endoreversibility. In this article, a hypothesis is formulated, and subsequently formally proved, that this concept rests on a fallacious argument. The concept of endoreversibility is inherently inconsistent with the postulated set of assumptions because the internal reversibility of a thermal system appears to be contradictory to an existence of external finite area heat exchangers that communicate with the endoreversible internal part across the finite temperature gaps. The irreversibilities contributed by the system components are inherently interconnected. As a consequence, the maximum power efficiency between the given temperature levels and as predicted by finite time thermodynamics assuming that the heat input into the system is free to vary, i.e., is incorrect. In addition, the magnitude of this figure of merit may be even smaller compared to the efficiency of a real system.
Narrowband laser produced extreme ultraviolet sources adapted to silicon/molybdenum multilayer optics83(1998); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.367238View Description Hide Description
The extreme ultraviolet radiation emitted from a plasma generated by a pulsed Nd:yttrium aluminum garnet laser is investigated around 13 nm wavelength for several low elements (lithium, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine). A narrowband EUVsource can be designed by using the narrowband line emission of low elements in combination with the broadband reflection characteristic of silicon/molybdenum (Si/Mo) multilayer mirrors. Experimental results are discussed within a theoretical model, which allows a deduction of an optimization criterion for a maximum conversion efficiency. The Lyman-α line of hydrogenlike lithium ions fulfills the demands for high intense, free-standing narrowband emission at the long wavelength side of the silicon absorption edge.
Numerical calculations of the temperature distribution and the cooling speed in the laser-heated diamond anvil cell83(1998); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.367239View Description Hide Description
Numerical calculations have been done to reveal temperature distributions and cooling speeds of laser-heated samples in a diamond anvil cell. The distributions were calculated for variable experimental parameters including the diameter of the laser beam, anvil gap, and sample. The results show that the radial temperature distribution in all samples is Gaussian. The axial temperature gradient is in samples heated by a broad laser beam of 100 μm diameter, and is when a narrow laser beam of 10 μm diameter is used. The broad beam can generate a less extreme temperature gradient in both radial and axial directions as compared with the narrow beam, whereas the temperature gradient strongly depends on the anvil gap, although this is minimized when a narrow beam is used. When the narrow beam is used to heat samples, the surface temperature of the anvil culet can be kept below 400 K; thus, the narrow beam is suitable for heating samples under high pressure while keeping anvil temperatures low. Cooling speeds of the laser-heated samples were found to be from to The discrepancy between actual sample temperature and measuredtemperature was also evaluated. To measure the peak temperature of a sample heated by a laser with a Gaussian power distribution within 5% accuracy, radiation from a circular area of less than of the Gaussian must be observed.
The influence of residual gas pressures on the degradation of ZnS powder phosphors83(1998); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.367240View Description Hide Description
Phosphor powder of ZnS:Cu,Al,Au has been subjected to electron bombardment (2 keV, ) in residual gas pressures ranging from to Auger electron spectroscopy and cathodoluminescence (CL), both excited by the same electron beam, were used to monitor changes in the surface chemistry and cathodoluminescent brightness versus vacuum conditions during electron bombardment. A direct correlation between the surface reactions and the degradation of CL brightness was observed. The formation of a nonluminescent ZnO layer on the surface of the phosphor was largely responsible for the degradation of the ZnS. The aging of the phosphor was not only a function of the charge per unit area (Coulomb dose) bombarding the surface, but also a function of residual gas pressure and composition. In particular, had the greatest effect on the rate of degradation. The results are interpreted in terms of an electron-beam stimulated surface chemical reaction.

News Release
Termination Date for Farm Leases
This article was originally published on September 14, 2010 and expired on October 15, 2010. It is provided here for archival purposes and may contain dated information.
As fall harvest begins, landowners and tenants start thinking about the next crop year, and one of the major decisions is the farm rental agreement. The farmland owner may want to change some provisions of the existing lease, or the tenant realizes he or she expects to lose money with the existing agreement and would like to renegotiate the terms of the lease. Therefore, when should farm lease changes be made?
According to Dr. Don Uchtmann, Professor of Agricultural Law, retired, at the University of Illinois, most year to year farmland leases are presumed to begin on March 1 and end on the last day of February. Since Illinois Statutes require at least a 4-month notice for termination, October 31 is the last day to give notice to terminate an existing farm lease, in most cases. For many leases, the current lease terms are automatically renewed if there is no timely notice of termination by either the landowner or tenant. Therefore, if either party wishes to terminate an existing annual lease, notice must be given by the above date.
Illinois law requires that a written termination notice must be given for either a written or verbal lease. The statute provides that the notice may be served by delivering a written copy to the tenant or landlord, or by leaving the notice with some person of at least 13 years of age residing on or in possession of the premises. Also, a copy of the notice can be sent to the tenant or landlord by certified or registered mail. If no one is actually in possession of the farm, the notice can be posted on the premises.
An example of language that can be used for the termination notice is included in the statute. The example is given for a landlord giving notice to the tenant, but modification can be made for a notice from tenant to landlord.
If the year to year lease is in writing and it specifies a different notice period, the notice period of the written lease usually prevails. A different notice period agreed to orally is not effective, but, instead, the 4-month statutory notice period will govern.
Terminating a farm lease can have many legal implications. Therefore, contact an attorney before sending a notice to terminate a lease.

Texting for 911 starts 4-month trial in VermontThe Associated Press | December 03,2012MONTPELIER — As part of a four-month trial period, Sprint Wireless customers in Vermont can send a text message to 911 for emergency help.
The service is starting Monday. Sprint Wireless customers must have mobile phones that are capable of sending text messages. It's part of an experimental trial to evaluate the technology.
David Tucker, executive director of the Enhanced 911 Board in Vermont, said this is the second such trial launched during the year.
He said the fact that a large number of people who are deaf or hard of hearing already use Sprint means officials will be better equipped to provide access for that population to the Vermont 911 system.MORE IN This Just In

Written + Photographed By Kelley Mullarkey | Video Produced By Sean Stillmaker
In the Greek language, Meraki is a word used to describe doing something with soul, creativity and love – when you put "something of yourself" into what you are doing, whatever that may be.
Meraki is so powerfully beautiful that it cannot be translated or filed down to just one single word within the corridors of the English language.
Given its nature, the only true way one can experience it, is to see it in action. It is through the genius mind and works of Simbarashe that we are granted the opportunity to watch this ancient word come to life.
Taking the definition from the dictionary to the streets with every click from his camera, Simbarashe captures the raw beauty of the individual human spirit in such a way that reaches the deepest valleys of passion, transcending into an unfathomable archive of sartorial art.
Displaying a riveting medley of men, women and adolescents taking part in the everyday adventures of life, Simbarashe's blog, Lord Ashbury, reads more like a visual cultural exhibition of expression than a world wide web address.
Under the lens of Simbarashe, your senses are pulled into each and every photograph: you feel the energy of today's youth, the sun on your back, the love between a couple holding hands.
Simbarashe's photographs reach your soul, showcasing much more than the eye can see. With Simbarashe, you do not experience merely a fragment of time; you become part of the world's story.
Back in early May on a rather unpleasant and windy (nightmare of a) day in Chicago, I discovered Simbarashe's street style blog, after his ever so adorable assistant Savannah left a comment on one of the recently posted majestic disorder features.
Instead of catering to my usual and slightly obnoxious midday coffee needs, I spent the entire course of my lunch break sifting through page after page of Simbarashe's photos at my desk, occasionally calling over my fellow copywriters to take part in the viewing. Part of me was enthralled with the photographed subjects, the other part with the photographer himself who so naturally shined through each and every single portrait.
Within a few weeks I was hooked. I found myself obsessively refreshing Simbarashe's blog throughout the day and like most (all) of my decisions, I impulsively purchased Sean and myself two tickets to NYC. I was determined to meet Simbarashe in person and find out every little aspect of life that inspired him.
After battling the scorching heat of Manhattan's playground, which felt more like Dante's Inferno, we arrived at Simbarashe's apartment. Wearing quite the minimalist ensemble, a perfectly crisp white shirt paired with a gray pair of trousers, accompanied by one extraordinary smile, Simbarashe introduced Sean and myself to Savannah, the individual who inadvertently brought us all together.
As Simbarashe began explaining his childhood, I soon realized that I needed a diagram to fully comprehend his youthful whereabouts. Even early on Simbarashe's experiences placed him far ahead of the game.
Born in L.A., he moved around a lot as a child, having attended public, private and boarding schools both in and out of the country.
Always the curious type, Simbarashe recalls being creatively fascinated from quite an early age.
"I always wanted to be a cinematographer. I saw the movie E.T. when I was two years old. Everything about seeing that at a very young age impacted me. I was too small to recall the plot at the time, but I remembered it visually. I've always engaged with what stories look like."
Growing up Simbarashe channeled his creative energy through the exploration of several artistic ventures ranging from playing with bands to writing a screen play his senior year of high school.
"I ended up going to 10 schools in 12 years. I spent my freshman and sophomore years of high school in Kansas City, part of my junior year in Dallas, Texas and my final year in Albuquerque, New Mexico."
It was during his senior year of high school that Simbarashe began taking his experiences and turning them into print. Having attended four different high schools, all in really great public standing, Simbarashe noticed a trend among the students, primarily with the upper class white demographic and their interest with both guns and the gangster lifestyle.
"I wrote a short story, which I turned into a screenplay entitled Everybody Hates Donica Pine (later to be published in book form as Warsongs) about a school shooting, but at the time no one understood where my characters were coming from. I originally wrote the story to cope with the death of my classmate. Two years later two senior students went on a shooting spree at Columbine High School killing 12 students and themselves."
During his 20s, Simbarashe spent some time playing as a guitarist in a few bands like The Small Hours before making the leap of faith to NYC where he dabbled into an arena of creativity ranging from professional writing to the creation and evolution of his blog, Lord Ashbury.
With two published books under his belt, Veronasongs and Warsongs, Simbarashe began a new era of his life, one that focused on telling stories visually through his photography.
The phenomenon of Lord Ashbury began its manifestation on January 1st, 2012.
"I was walking home through Times Square in NYC around 2 or 3 in the morning. There is something really sort of fascinating about New York right after New Years and I felt compelled to document it. That's where Lord Ashbury really started."
The following month a photograph that Simbarashe had taken at New York Fashion Week surfaced around the web as a side by side comparison to one taken by The Sartorialist. That put Lord Ashbury on the map.
Since then it's grown from a New York street style blog into a global online destination showcasing the world's most intriguing subjects – from Kanye West at Paris Fashion Week to strangers just enjoying their weekends. (Plus, I've never seen Bill Cunningham look more in love with his work than when in front of Simbarashe's lens.)
As I watched Simbarashe's face dazzle with emotion each time he spoke, I noticed the direct parallel between his work, eloquent demeanor and stylistic sense. All three embody exactly who he is – clear, precise and astonishingly real.
What truly makes his work stand out from the rest is Simbarashe's natural ability to form a silent relationship with each individual he photographs. When you look through his photos, you don't see people; you see a tapestry of sentiment woven carefully together with inspiration and saturated with passion.
Simple yet captivating, Simbarashe's personal style stays in line with the notion that 'less is more.' As a self-professed "sock connoisseur," Simbarashe places his focus on the minor details (a great tie, colorful socks) instead of cluttering the eye with messy distractions like flamboyant colors or trippy patterns.
Before our afternoon together ended, Simbarashe invited Sean and myself to join him and watch him in action as he captured New York's finest.
If I had to sum the experience up with just one word?

50 yrs of Fresno (and beyond) being rebuilt on top of this haphazardly-clamped together trash. City of Fresno even denies their own street widening such as Olive Ave., historic Tower Dist. As each parcel is rebuilt, property lines changed, Title Companies alter the parcel maps to line up to the new layout. Further being covered up with historic aerial views altered. Old books, directories, maps altered some are found in the library reprints also sold on ebay as vintage to make it appear that things have always been this way. [continued below]....
Citywide major building, safety, health and environmental code violations being covered up. ADA violations escalating as streets are widened, poles/lights now setting in the middle of sidewalks. Overhead / underground utility theft.
Reports / evidence behind murders not allowed when linked to this operation because not only is the City involved (clearing the path so the water scam can continue) the evidence has been altered.

American Motorcyclist Association Announces 85th Anniversary Celebration at 2009 AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days
The American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) is pleased to announce that the Association will celebrate its 85th anniversary year in 2009 with a number of activities and events, culminating with AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days, July 24-26, at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course in Lexington, Ohio.
One eye-catching activity at AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days will be a motorcycle parade with bikes representing the more than eight decades the AMA has been protecting riders' rights, from 1924 through 2009. This distinctive collection of motorcycles will provide a physical and visual representation of the long and varied history of the AMA.
"We're excited about pulling together this rich symbol of the AMA's history, and assembling such a diverse collection of motorcycles will be no small feat," said Tigra Tsujikawa, AMA marketing and special events manager. "If any of our members are interested in this special opportunity, I encourage them to visit the AMA's Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum website at www.motorcyclemuseum.org/85thParade.asp or e-mail us at email@example.com for details."
Founded in 1924, the AMA quickly became a national voice for the growing number of motorcycle clubs and riders in the U.S., a legacy that the Association has carried forward ever since. Today the AMA is the country's leading advocate for the protection and promotion of the motorcycling lifestyle and -- with more than 300,000 members -- it has grown to become the largest motorcycling organization in the world.
"During our 85 years, the AMA has undergone numerous changes to meet the evolving needs of our membership," said AMA President and CEO Rob Dingman. "Currently, the AMA is positioning the organization to better serve all motorcyclists for the next 85 years and beyond. In 2009, we will recognize both this landmark anniversary and this exciting time of change with various events and activities, culminating at one of the year's can't-miss motorcycling events, AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days."
In addition to the 85th anniversary celebration motorcycle parade, the AMA is asking its members to help the Association tell its story.
"We want to know from AMA members, 'Why did you join the AMA? What does motorcycling mean to you? What events, bikes or people represent your most memorable motorcycling moments?'" said Tsujikawa. "Remember that a picture tells a thousand words, so please include photographs whenever possible."
AMA members can e-mail their memories to email@example.com.
AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days, the proceeds of which benefit the AMA's Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum, has grown to become America's grandest celebration of motorcycling heritage, and features numerous activities inspired by all eras. In addition to activities tied to the AMA's 85th anniversary, the weekend will be loaded with highlights, including the world's largest motorcycle swap meet, demo rides of current production bikes, motorcycling seminars, bike shows, stunt shows, the new product Manufacturers' Midway, club corrals that feature both marque and regional clubs, and guided rides through the rolling Ohio countryside.
The weekend is also scheduled to feature a full slate of American Historic Motorcycle Racing Association competition, including road racing, motocross, observed trials, cross country and dirt track for both vintage and post-vintage motorcycles.
Tickets for AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days 2009 are available from Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course at www.midohio.com or by phone at (800) MID-OHIO.
More announcements regarding the AMA's 85th anniversary celebration, including events during and leading up to AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days, will be made soon.
About the American Motorcyclist Association

|Acylsucrose-producing tomato plants forces Bemisia tabaci to shift its preferred settling and feeding site
|Autor :

|[Background] The whitefly Bemisia tabaci (Genn.) causes dramatic damage to plants by transmitting yield-limiting virus diseases. Previous studies proved that the tomato breeding line ABL 14-8 was resistant to B. tabaci, the vector of tomato yellow leaf curl disease (TYLCD). This resistance is based on the presence of type IV glandular trichomes and acylsucrose production. These trichomes deter settling and probing of B. tabaci in ABL 14-8, which reduces primary and secondary spread of TYLCD.
[Methodology/Principal Findings] Whitefly settlement preference was evaluated on the adaxial and abaxial leaf surfaces of nearly-isogenic tomato lines with and without B. tabaci-resistance traits, 'ABL 14-8 and Moneymaker' respectively, under non-choice and free-choice conditions. In addition, the Electrical Penetration Graph technique was used to study probing and feeding activities of B. tabaci on the adaxial and abaxial leaf surfaces of the same genotypes. B. tabaci preferred to settle on the abaxial than on the adaxial surface of 'Moneymaker' leaves, whereas no such preference was observed on ABL 14-8 tomato plants at the ten-leaf growth stage. Furthermore, B. tabaci preferred to feed on the abaxial than on the adaxial leaf surface of 'Moneymarker' susceptible tomato plants as shown by a higher number of sustained phloem feeding ingestion events and a shorter time to reach the phloem. However, B. tabaci standard probing and feeding behavior patterns were altered in ABL 14-8 plants and whiteflies were unable to feed from the phloem and spent more time in non-probing activities when exposed to the abaxial leaf surface.
[Conclusions/Significance] The distorted behavior of B. tabaci on ABL 14-8 protects tomato plants from the transmission of phloem-restricted viruses such as Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV), and forces whiteflies to feed on the adaxial side of leaves where they feed less efficiently and become more vulnerable to natural enemies. © 2012 Rodriguez-Lopez et al.

Mark Lesses Explains An Overview of Home Buying Terminology
Mortgage. A mortgage is a home loan. In order to obtain a mortgage loan, you will need to contact a bank, credit union, or other lender. Lenders offer varying types of loans. Some carry fixed interest rates, while the rates on others are adjustable. Some loans, like VA (Veterans Administration)
Amortization. This is the schedule to pay off a mortgage over a certain length of time – often 15 or 20 years. Payments are made in monthly installments.
Credit Rating. Your credit standing, or simply your "credit" is used by your lender to determine whether you are a good risk for extending a loan. If you have a good credit rating (as determined by the three credit reporting agencies: TransUnion, Equifax, and Experian), your lender will view you as a good risk to pay off a home loan. A favorable credit rating also translates into a lower interest rate on your loan. To check your credit standing, contact the three reporting agencies. You are entitled to one free report annually.
Pre-Approval. Being pre-approved for a mortgage loan can help land you in your dream house. When you initially contact your lender, ask about obtaining a pre-approval letter to have on hand when you make an offer on a home. It's important to note that pre-qualification (an estimate of the amount of loan you can obtain) is different from a pre-approval, which requires an extensive assessment of your financial situation, resulting in a firmer commitment of the loan amount your lender is willing to extend to you.
Down Payment. A down payment is the cash amount paid up front on a home purchase. The remainder of the purchase is financed by your mortgage loan.
Earnest Money. This is the amount of money included in an offer letter to prove that a homebuyer is serious, or "earnest,"
Contingency. A contingency is a condition included in the contract when a home is purchased. It is meant to protect the homebuyer. Some common types of contingencies include securing home financing, a satisfactory inspection of the sale property, and the sale of the buyer's current home.
Title. A property title is a legal document verifying the ownership of a home. It proves that there are no liens or claims against the property at the time of sale.
Appraisal. A home appraisal is an assessment of a property's value as determined by a professional.
Escrow Account. Your lender will create an escrow account to pay "extra" above the loan principal and interest. Homeowner's insurance and property taxes are paid from this account.
Closing Costs. Closing costs are one-time fees due at the time of the close of sale. They differ from sale to sale, and may include payment for appraisals and home inspections, attorney's and recording fees, title service costs, taxes, and pre-paid homeowner's insurance. Depending on the terms of the sale, closing costs may be paid by the buyer, the seller, or divided between both parties.
Points. Sometimes called "discount points," points are a percentage of the loan paid at closing in exchange for a lower interest rate on the loan.
Every home sale is different and some terminology may be straightforward, while some might require more explanation. If you have questions regarding the nuances of the process, ask your real estate agent for a comprehensive explanation so that you can understand every aspect of buying your new home.
