Jaguar Mulls Manufacturing Cars in India
MUMBAI--Jaguar Land Rover, Tata Motors Ltd. TTM -4.21 % 's British luxury car making unit, is considering manufacturing vehicles in India.
JLR is looking at options to build its cars and expand its manufacturing footprint beyond the U.K., a person close to the development said Sunday, and producing cars in India would lower the price tag for JLR vehicles in the world's second-most populous country.
"Like Brazil, India is one of the possibilities for Jaguar Land Rover to fully manufacture cars," the person, who didn't want to be named, told The Wall Street Journal, in line with the company's plans to set up plants in emerging economies
However, the process is at a "very preliminary stage," the person said, and analysts were skeptical about the viability of a JLR manufacturing plant in India.
JLR assembles two vehicles at its west India plant using kits, engines and gearboxes imported from the U.K. However, these locally assembled vehicles are still subjected to a duty, albeit lower than that for fully imported automobiles.
Building a car in India would help JLR save on government taxes and reduce labor costs. India recently raised the import duty on imported cars to 100% of its cost, from 75%. Cars made by companies such as JLR, which fully import engines and gearboxes, attract a 30% duty, while vehicles assembled from imported kits and fitted with locally made parts attract a 10% duty
JLR assembles the Jaguar XF sedan and the Land Rover Freelander sport utility vehicle at the same facility where parent Tata Motors builds cars and trucks, but imports fully built vehicles for the XK and XJ sedans, as well as the Evoque and Discovery SUVs.
A manufacturing plant in India would be a leap for JLR over its German rivals-- Audi AG NSU -0.36 % , Daimler AG DDAIY 0.51 % and BMW AG BMW -0.01 % --which only assemble their cars in India.
Global auto makers have been expanding their manufacturing footprint in India to lower costs and produce cheaper vehicles for the large domestic market.
However, analysts said Jaguar Land Rover's sales volume in India don't justify the cost of setting up a manufacturing facility in the country.
"A manufacturing facility would entail an investment of about 25 billion rupees ($455 million), in which case, the company would need to sell about 12,000 vehicles to make a profit...JLR does much less," said Mahantesh Sabarad, an analyst with Fortune Equity Brokers (Pvt) Ltd.
He added that unless JLR opens an engine manufacturing plant in India, it will continue to attract the tax that is imposed on imported engines.
Jaguar Land Rover has three plants in the U.K. It is building a manufacturing plant in China with local car maker Chery Automobile Co., and plans to set up a plant in Brazil if it clears regulatory hurdles.
In 2008, Tata Motors purchased the Jaguar and Land Rover brand names for $2.3 billion from Ford Motor Co. F 0.25 % The unit is the Indian company's biggest source of revenue and profit.

2183 Tasting Notes
It's been a while. I've been crazy busy with no time for tea (gasp!), which is sad. I also haven't been reading tasting notes, so do let me know if I've missed anything (I won't have time to go back through them all, you lot are prolific!).
Continuing my cupboard chronology? I bet you forgot about it! I'm still mid-French tea boom, though, so I'm more than happy to keep going.
Ahh, Paris. Since I first purchased and tasted this tea I have grown a lot fonder of traditional TGYs and their roasty toasty notes. So while it was surprising to me that I enjoyed this one as much as I did when I first tried it, this time is no shock. Delish! Unlike many Fauchon teas, I find the flavoring on this one to be more subtle. Light citrusy orange blossom, and a rich almond that comes out more in the aftertaste but lingers like you just ate some marzipan. Definite yum.
Also I realized that I have just been boiling all of my TGYs now. I used to think that they needed lower temps, like 195°F, since they were green oolongs and delicate or something, but not true! I find it harder to mess up an oolong than a black tea these days.
Mariage Frères and I have not had the best of relationships, so I'm not really sure what compelled me to pick up a 100g tin of this one at a café in Pittsburgh. Perhaps the lure of almond and rose, and perhaps because I remembered Ysaurella's notes on this one. Although they don't always agree, our tastes tend to be fairly similar in many cases, so if she liked this one, I wanted to try it.
I have to say that I didn't realize that this was spiced as well, and initially it was a little disconcerting because the dry leaf almost smelled like Christmas (clove, cinnamon), and I have had little success with teas spiced this way (from any company). However, I should not have worried. This is without a doubt the smoothest, sweetest tea I've ever had from MF. And so almondy! That's what really won me over. The almond is strong and rich, in a slightly marzipan-y way (and not just nutty). The vanilla is creamy and sweet, and combined with the spices it really reminds me of a spiced almond cookie. The spices themselves don't overtake the rest of the blend (like they so often do). And here we have found a base tea that I truly enjoy (wish I knew what it was, haha!). Smooth, with good body and nicely balanced.
Very glad that I picked this one up (and apparently got it for a steal at $24 when it retails for 25€ on their website).
ETA: I meant to mention that I don't really get a distinct rose flavor here, which is a little disappointing but the rest of it is so delicious that it doesn't bother me. I still have Fauchon's La Naissance for when I want an almond-rose blend.
Anna: the spicing is definitely present (just not overpowering) so if you loathe spiced teas I would give this one a miss. It's not unlike Pleine Lune but without the fruit and with a larger spice presence.
I'm in Pittsburgh this weekend and I happen to have found a cute French restaurant called Crêpes Parisienne that is right near the museum where I'm working today. Not only do they have tasty crêpes, they also sell MF tea. I chose this one to go with my lunch mostly because they didn't have any black teas that I really wanted to try in stock.
This was really lovely! Fresh and green and lightly citrusy. Smooth and overall very nice. It was on the whole lightly flavored (at least, with the somewhat unknown parameters at which I steeped it), but that is just fine with me. Perfect for a mid-afternoon pick-me-up, and a perfect accompaniment to my delicious crêpe!
Do they only sell them to have with your food, or can you buy the entire tins? Either way, thanks for bringing it up! I am occasionally in Pittsburgh, so it is a good thing to know… Are there any other cool tea places you would recommend? I will be in Pittsburgh at the end of the month, in the vicinity of Cultural District mostly.
They do have a small selection of tins (and boxes of tea bags) for sale, but be warned that they are cash only! I don't know much else about Pittsburgh as this is my first real visit, just happened across this place!
This is one of my all time favorites, my perfect spring-summer afternoon tea…
I love Nil Rouge as well.
I have battled with this tea ever since I brought it back from Paris. Darjeeling! * shakes fist * We are not friends. But maybe we can call an uneasy truce. This time I steeped this tea like it was a green tea, and there is only the barest hints of bitterness on my palate. Most of the flavor is a slightly perfumy raspberry and rose, with the light almond of a macaron underneath. I'm still not in love with this tea, but maybe with a slightly shorter steep time I can actually enjoy it enough to finish it!
I had this one yesterday afternoon and never logged it. Suffice to say it was super delicious! I do love a rosy tea, and this one fits the bill. This is the only Fauchon tea that I have that doesn't have a fancy Fauchon tin because I actually bought it loose at their shop in Paris. Wish I had bought more there, but it's so easy to spend an absurd amount of money at Fauchon. At least it isn't as impossible to find as it once was!
What a garden of flowers. So floral and delicious. I think what I like best about this blend is that there are so many unusual flowers in it. Not just rose and jasmine, but acacia, water lily, aloe, and plum blossoms? Quite unique, and somehow it doesn't come across as a perfume shop.
Drinking this one now as part of my cupboard chronology and not because I'm feeling ill. Yay!
Lemony, sweet, with a little ginger zing. This type of tea will always have a place in my cupboard, and this is such a good example of it that I will be tempted to have this one be my staple. I'm so glad that Dammann's international shipping isn't as crazy as some other tea companies!
Dinosara, do you buy them directly from Dammann or from a distributor and how much do you usually pay for shipping?
Well, this one I actually brought back from Paris with me. I have bought DF teas from Cadeau Deco Vendome (http://www.cadeau-deco-vendome.com) and they have a flat 9 Euro shipping charge to North America. Dammann's own site scales based on how much you buy, but I've ordered a small package from them for 10 Euro shipping.
Next up, a stroll through the Tuileries. I wish!
This is such a unique tea. Some things you might expect to go together: pineapple and coconut (ok), cereals and chocolate (sure), a variety of florals (yeah [but tomato blossom?]), but then put all of them together on a green oolong? Weird. But it works. When you drink it, it's impossible to really pinpoint what it tastes like. Nevertheless, I like it, and it's my kind of tea.
That is a bizarre combination and yet one that sounds very appealing to me too (except wtf tomato blossom).
I wonder if savory garden scents and flavors are going to be over-the-top trendy for a while. Lots of co-workers are into Scentsy stuff and they have a "Tomato Vine" … uh, not a candle, what do you call them? smelly thing, I guess … that was indeed, spot on for aroma.
That would be so weird. I suppose I'd be OK with my kitchen smelling like tomato vines, but my place is so tiny the whole apartment would smell like tomato vines!
And this tea sounds so interesting, but "cereals" means it's a no for me. Darnit! :)
This morning's tea should have been another spring TGY, but all of it is actually at home with my gongfu setup. Will have to try to remember to drink it this weekend.
So instead I am super excited to have reached my Parisian acquisitions. Nonstop DF and Fauchon for quite a while? Yes please. I unabashedly restocked 100g of this in Paris last summer because I knew I would easily drink it up. Floral and fruity, this is an ideal tea for me. I love that the fruits are orange, bergamot, and fig (a somewhat unusual blend), and I love the rich florals. Sweet and delicious!
Moar oolong! I always find it interesting to drink a spring (early spring even) and autumn oolong back to back to really see how they play with each other. Also I can never decide if I like spring or autumn oolongs best!
I think the main difference between this one and the early spring one is that this one has a fruity bent to it. Almost like an apricot, I would say. Less buttery, more fruity. I really enjoy both of them immensely. Nothing like green oolong as I watch the snow melt away and spring creep closer.

Buckeyes' goal:?Become the opponents' nightmare
COLUMBUS – Ohio State freshman Dontre Wilson says he's just one of the guys on the Buckeyes' team when it comes to being fast.
The crowd at Ohio Stadium during OSU's first two games respectfully disagrees.
There has been an audible reaction coming from the stands whenever the speedy freshman has the ball in his hands.
Wilson got his first college touchdown on a 7-yard pitchout from Kenny Guiton in the first quarter against San Diego State on Saturday.
His longest play of the season has been a 51-yard kickoff return against Buffalo in the opener.
But there have been at least two other plays where for just a moment it looked like he was going to take the ball all the way to the end zone before a tackler reached out and grabbed an ankle or caught him around a leg.
The potential for a huge play is always there. And that's why the reaction is there, too.
Senior wide receiver Corey Brown says he hears the crowd when Wilson gets the ball.
"Yeah, I hear it. Look at him. He's fast. That's why they like him. Everybody knows he can make big plays," Brown said.
Wilson himself hears it and says it gets him fired up.
"Yeah, I hear it all the time," he said. "It's something that's electrifying and helps me make a play," he said.
Wilson says he thinks about the plays he almost broke the last two weeks "all the time," but realizes he is not in high school anymore.
"It's a very big difference. Everybody is fast. Even the linemen are fast," he said.
Wilson might have already become one of the most popular of Ohio State's offensive threats, but as Saturday's game emphasized, he is far from alone in that category.
Backup quarterback Kenny Guiton was a more than adequate substitute for the injured Braxton Miller, leading the team in rushing and throwing for two touchdowns in a 42-7 win.
Seven different Buckeyes ran the ball and seven caught passes, led by Devin Smith with seven receptions and Brown, who caught both of Guiton's touchdown throws.
With that many options and that kind of depth, the ball doesn't get into a player's hands very often.
In his weekly press conference last Monday, OSU coach Urban Meyer said he was going to make an effort to get the ball in Brown's hands against San Diego State because he was under-used against Buffalo.
"Coach Meyer and I had a talk during the week and he told me he was going to try to get me involved," Brown said.
"We've got a lot of playmakers and young guys who have stepped up. When you have that many guys who can make plays like that, it's good for us.
"It's a good problem to have. It's a defensive coordinator's nightmare and we're happy to be the nightmare."

Cook's Illustrated Restaurant-Style Hummus
Total Time
Prep 15 mins
Cook 0 mins
This is a smooth and silky hummus from those people on PBS who know how to test and create great recipes. They recommend Joyva or Krinos tahini and Pastene chickpeas (I used what I had on hand). Hummus can be refrigerated in an airtight container for 5 days. If you do not plan on serving it immediately, refrigerate the hummus and garnishes separately. When ready to serve, stir in approximately 1 tablespoon of warm water if the texture is too thick. Serving size is estimated.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice (1 to 2 lemons)
- 1⁄4 cup water
- 6 tablespoons tahini
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
- 14 ounces chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- 1 garlic clove (minced or pressed through garlic press 1/2 teaspoon)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro or 1 tablespoon fresh parsley leaves, minced
- Combine lemon juice and water in a small bowl or measuring cup.
- Whisk together tahini and 2 tablespoons oil in second small bowl or measuring cup.
- Set aside 2 tablespoons chickpeas for garnish.
- Process remaining chickpeas, garlic, salt, cumin, and cayenne in food processor until almost fully ground, about 15 seconds.
- With machine running, add lemon juice-water mixture in steady stream through feed tube.
- Scrape down bowl and continue to process for 1 minute.
- With machine running, add oil-tahini mixture in steady stream through feed tube and continue to process until hummus is smooth and creamy (about 15 seconds, scraping down bowl as needed).
- Transfer hummus to serving bowl and sprinkle with reserved chickpeas and cilantro over surface.
- Cover with plastic wrap and let stand until flavors meld, at least 30 minutes.
- Drizzle with olive oil and serve.
Most Helpful
Delicious hummus! I think you can only get that shiny hummus you see in Middle Eastern restaurants by drizzling it with olive oil right before it's served. This hummus had everything you could want from a recipe. No weird add-ins like sour cream or yogurt, just olive oil, lemon, and tahini. I used 4 cloves of garlic instead of just one (just my preference), and left everything else the same as is written in this recipe. It was perfect! Thank you, AmyZoe
Pretty good hummus, I was not sure what to do with the lemon water mixture so I just put it in with the tahini mixture and it looked fine. Nice and smooth and creamy. I added extra cumin and garlic though, just because that is my preference.

Judge Seidlin's Clan Removed From Widow's Will
Finally, justice. Or at least a taste of it.
Larry Seidlin, the weeping Anna Nicole Smith judge who has chiseled more than a half million dollars from an elderly widow in his condo building, has been removed from the woman's will.
Or I should say Seidlin's wife and daughter are off the will, since Seidlin was always shrewd enough to keep his name out of it as he worked to take over Barbara Kasler's multi-million dollar fortune. Kasler's family members, caregivers, and an activist named Lyn Evans have managed to remove the parasitical Seidlin (who is greedy at, like, a Tales from the Crypt level) from the widow's life and possessions.
This news comes a few weeks after a state investigation began into allegations of abuse and exploitation of Kasler by the Seidlins. Here's the story on that.
Upcoming Events
"Barbara Kasler began improving physically and mentally once the Seidlins and Rays were driven from her apartment (no surprise there)," Evans wrote the Pulp. "With the improvement came her ability to understand that perhaps Larry Seidlin wasn't operating in her best interests. Last Thursday at 11:30 PM, Mrs. Kasler called her niece, Corine Kasler, in Pensacola and asked her to take over her affairs. It was the turning point."
The will naming Seidlin's wife, Belinda Seidlin, and daughter Dax has been revoked, says Corine Kasler, and a new will is being worked up that definitely won't involve the judge or his family.
The trustee of Kasler's estate, Steve Fuller, and the estate's attorney, Richard Judd, are being fired. There are all kinds of horrible stories coming out of this, stories of outrageous exploitation from Seidlin and his family that will be heard soon enough.
For now it's just good news that the exploitation has stopped and Kasler has been taken from Seidlin's clutches. You just wonder who is going to pay for his daughter Dax's education at Pine Crest School and all kinds of other expenses now. Poor guy.
A lot of people came together to make it happen, including Corine Kasler, caregiver Monica Izquierdo Vial and another nurse, who will go unnamed for now. Lyn Evans was crucial, a "miracle worker," as Corine Kasler called her. And it all started with lawyer Chris Roberts, who had the courage to expose the situation in the first place. It's just too bad Howard Rosen at the Miami-Dade State Attorney's Office wasn't quite so effective. If he had been, it could have been stopped months ago.

Good bright medium ruby. Blackberry, cassis and licorice on the nose, plus a whiff of adhesive tape. Tightly wound but not hard, with a slightly high-toned character, subtle sweetness and strong energy to the intense black fruit and licorice flavors. Densely packed, taut wine with a long, suavely tannic finish. This will require at least five to seven years of bottle aging upon release.

Skip to comments.Smoking Bans Burn Buisness (In Delaware)
Posted on 12/15/2002 3:37:30 PM PST by qam1Edited on 05/07/2004 6:01:25 PM PDT by Jim Robinson. [history]
As Delaware's indoor smoking ban enters its third week, most establishments appear to be observing the law - even though opposition is growing among some tavern and restaurant owners who complain they are losing business.
People were smoking in only two of 33 bars and restaurants visited by News Journal reporters last week. Many tavern owners and patrons said they are obeying the law while organizing to try to overturn or amend it when the General Assembly returns in January. Several owners said they think they have lost 20 percent to 50 percent of their business since the ban went into effect on Nov. 27.
(Excerpt) Read more at delawareonline.com ...
"It may take awhile for the nonsmokers to discover," that Delaware establishments are smoke-free."
If that wasn't so tragic that would be funny.
Of course everybody knows Delaware is smoke free. That is why you are losing money stupid.
These politicans will go on believing this nonsense forever. They are mistakenly basing it on the fact that 25% of people are smokers and 75% are not and polls done by the antismoking nazis show that a majority of nonsmokers "SAY" the will go out more if bans are put in place.
The flaws in that are
1) They assume because 75% don't smoke that means that 75% of peoiple feel the same way about cigarettes as the antismoker Nazis that are in their face lobbying them do. Not true, Most nonsmokers don't care about smoking. Even if they dislike smoking that doesn't mean they are currently changing anything they do to avoid it. An analogy is me personally I don't like SUVs but I am not driving less because there are SUVs on the road. The same is true with most nonsmokers. Most are not going out any less because there is smoking in bars & Resturants.
2) In fact the Opposite is happening as the bans cause smokers to flee to surrounding areas their non-smokeing freinds are joining them and in many cases they are even arranging there get togethers (like weddings & parties)in places that accomendate their smoking friends. Using myself again me and bunch of friends smokers and non-smokers this summer were going down to NYC for a trip but because of the smoking ban we are going up to Montreal instead. Not one of the nonsmokers protested this descision, They also think the ban is a stupid idea.
3) The polls are coming from the Antismoking Nazis themslves so they are obviously biased.
4) The polls are flawed because What people SAY they are going to do is often very different from what they actually end up doing. Another analogy is if you were to take a poll before New Years asking what resolutions people are planning on you would find 60%-80% would say they are going to lose weight. So would those poll numbers justify banning junk food because most people SAY they want to lose weight. Of course not and the same is true with smoking bans. Sure when asked they may say they will go out more just like they say they will lose weight but in reality they don't. That is why these bans are failing big time , The people who said they would go out more simply aren't.
5) What exactly does "Go out more" mean anyhow? It's a vague question with a vague meaning. The fact is most people don't go to bars & resturants on a regular basis anyhow. So If they call some 50 year old mother of 3 who only goes out 1 or twice a year and she responses "Yes I would go out more" what does that mean she will go out 3 times a year instead of 2? Well sorry she doesn't replace the buisness lost to someone who goes out more often.
6) OK, Some antismoking Nazis might go out more often but I am sorry if someone is that Prissy about second hand smoke they are not the type that will stay out late at night at a bar or resturant. These are the type of people that go to a resturant and only order a salad and bottle water and leave a dollar tip and then are home in bed by 8:30.
I have delt with these antismoking nazis and they the most misable, unfunloving people in the world, They are not hanging out in bars because people are having fun there and they hate that.
Dallas is in trouble, money-wise, and what do they do - vote a smoking ban.
I would like to have seen smokers get together, buy media time and announce they would not spend a nickle in Dallas during Christmas. If they would have just taken their business to other towns without the restrictive laws, it would have made a difference. Unfortunately, Americans do not fight back. WE just sit and take it, anything the want to dish out.
I beg to differ! I quit smoking over a month ago after smoking for 40 years. Cold turkey! PEOPLE should not be allowed to smoke in any public place. I see someone smoking on the streets and I lecture them, telling them of the evils of smoking. I.......... wait a minute, I think there is some law that requires me to say these crazy things since I quit. Somebody slap me!
But the only power the American has is his purchasing power - his pocketbook -and we refuse to use it.
You said it exactly right!
From my original post "Somebody slap me!" Damn it that's humor!
Now I agree a business SHOULD have the right to control his own business. I hope more smoking establishments are opened across the borders to draw business away from the Nazi states.
I was about to go two steps further till I caught your sarcasm........ :)
The only smoke free places I know of certainly aren't much fun. Those that I have frequented were inhabited by a couple people adjacent to me who were obviously in need of showers and deodorant. So tell me, what am I to do? Body odor offends me so I think we are in need of a BO Bill which requires such offenders be prohibited from any public/private establishment. You with me on this one or are you the typical smoke-nazi hypocrite?
They are open to the public at the owner's discretion. He has the right not to allow someone into his business.
You want the world to rotate on your butt? Why do we do it? How about "We like it and it's legal?" How's that.
I hope they ban your dirt bike next.
Back atcha, we don't care if you don't come into our bars where we smoke, drink, shoot pool and have fun. In fact, we would just as soon you stayed away. I would have loved to see you to come into a couple of places i used to hang out and spout your socialist agenda in there. ROFLMAO! Just picturing you driving home with a cue up your &*%!!!! OUCH!!
It's hard to know WHAT is going through people's heads when they come into the smoking threads. Seems that being a Republican who smokes still puts us on the outs with some. Pity.
We see it a lot in Free Republic. They say they are for all the rights for all the people, yet come in and trash the hell out of Conservatives who choose to smoke. I walk away from my monitor in tears a lot.
Not quite sure what you mean but I think you got sicvee wrong. He is an elitist Nico-Nazi, there was no humor in his post and I hope he has the cahones to stop by this thread again rather than just post and run........
Right about now, you've gotta being along this line:
That just don't seem FAIR! OK, notice the humor intent. It shows the obsurdity. Anyway thanks for that information. We got Dufus Davis here in Kalifornia, so I have no room to talk about or criticize the East coast.
Passive smoke research is bull clinton. No way unless one lives with a two pack a dayer for 40 years.
Vote with your feet smokers.
I know where you are coming from. Unfortunately, I get so darn *&^*&%*&* off that I wake up the next morning saying "well, what did you say last night and to whom...."
You know, my dad was one of the most knowlegable people on communism that I have ever know. Back in the 60's and 70's I used to roll my eyes whenever he started into one of his rants against the commies.
30 years later and wiser, dad was 100% right. I will always remember one thing he told me about Kruschev. Kruschev was quoted once as saying "...your freedoms will ultimately destroy you." Or something close to it. Anyway, his statement is coming closer to fruition as each year goes by.
When California got that Rob "Meathead" Reiner Prop 10 on the ballot and Charlton Heston endorsed it, I emailed the NRA. Wayne LaPierre, the spokesperson came back with the line that Mr. Heston was speaking for himself. I asked that if a local governing body wanted to place a huge yearly tax on all weapons kept in their community, would they endorse that. He replied that they would fight such a tax. After the proposition passed, by a slim majority, it was felt that Heston's endorsement clinched the passing. Within a few weeks, I think it was Chicago, was passing a tax on all guns and the NRA objected. Heston later said he wished that he would never have supported that meathead proposition because he could see where it was going.
Talk about Big Fat!
Save it for yourself. It's something!
Good Grief - it's worse than that. The state is asking for snitches. The radio and TV ads are nauseating - "If you see someone smoking where it's forbidden call and let us know"
I kid you not.
And on that note - I will go back to the beginning of the thread and add my 2cents to a few other comments!!!
"""WANTED: insane people to be no-smoking-in-public-code enforcers for the
state of Delaware. Must enter bars late at night without weapons, brains
and next of kin. Call - 1-(800) I BE NUTS anytime"""""
And they faced no concerted, organized opposition from smokers or from the business community, legislators and observers said.
I'm a native New Yorker (east Flatbush, Brooklyn) who has been living in Delaware for 20 years - it would have only been 18, but I haven't sold my house yet to leave.
The News Journal (delawareonline.com) has an editorial position that the smoking ban is the greatest thing since sliced bread. This story is by far the most objective of any story they have done since this legislation was orininally introduced nearly 2 years ago.
There is no two ways about it - bars and restaurants are being hurt big time by this ban. I can not speak from first hand knowledge but friends have told me the casino at Dover Downs is dead at times when it used to be packed (lunch and dinner).
Maybe it is not the same elsewhere, but around here the time from Thanksgiving to New Years has always meant big business to the bars and restaurants. When I can get a seat at the bar in my favorite sports bar at 5pm on a Saturday afternoon - there is something decidely wrong.
Because of being in central Delaware, an Eagles/Redskins game is a major draw for the sports bars regardless of the records of either team. But with the position the Eagles are in right now - it would be expected that all 3 sports bars would be packed to capacity.
I cruised the parking lots of all - and could have had my pick of parking spaces.
Typical smoker lying propaganda.

To most Americans the life and livelihood of our Indian predecessors is a romantic and fascinating subject but often a sketchily understood one. The peoples who inhabited present-day Texas at the dawn of historic times are even less well known by the public than most North American Indians and consequently there are probably more myths, absurdities, and falsehoods connected with them than with the natives of any other state. There is good reason for this ignorance and misunderstanding: most Texas tribes disappeared many years ago, some before Americans entered what is now Texas. This has meant that ethnographers—those anthropologists who describe primitive cultures—have not been able to gather firsthand facts about most Texas Indians. What is known about their habits has to be gleaned from the written accounts left by the soldiers, missionaries, and explorers who first visited them. Ethnographers have had their hands so full describing the surviving North American Indian tribes it is no wonder that Indians who can never be known in the flesh have been neglected. As a result no one has written a comprehensive book about the natives of Texas.
My own ignorance of Texas Indians and the conviction that as an anthropologist I should be able to answer questions about these bygone peoples started me on a search for this information. What I learned I have tried to put down in a nontechnical manner, yet this may sometimes be a difficult and unsatisfactory book to read. There are several reasons for this. The life of Texas Indians was often as different from our own as any to be found throughout the entire spectrum of human behavior—any time, any place. Because it was so different and because it is difficult at best mentally to shift gears and put yourself "inside" another culture, the reader, unless he is uncommonly imaginative and perceptive, may find himself unable to appreciate the nature and inner workings of Texas Indian cultures. He may come away puzzled and confused. It is also unfortunately true that some of the Texas Indians are so poorly known that only the major features and landmarks of their cultures can be described. Here the scantiness of details is also apt to leave the reader frustrated. Happily, some tribes intimately associated with Texas are well known. But here, too, the reader is asked to be indulgent, for there is so much information available about some tribes, the Comanches, for example, that it is difficult to cram a balanced yet condensed account of their cultures into single chapters. Nor is this book in any sense an exhaustive, final study of Texas Indians. It is instead a first attempt to put together between two covers the fundamental facts about all Texas Indians. It is not a product of original research; it is a synthesis from many sources, including many modern authorities.
I must confess to having another reason for writing this book. It is the conviction, shared by other anthropologists, that by knowing and understanding tribes and nations far removed from ourselves in time or space, we can gain perspective and objectivity in evaluating ourselves and our age. Such knowledge also sets the stage for a more intelligent and rational appreciation of other peoples in the modern world. To some it may seem odd, even grotesque, that a knowledge of savage Karankawas or bloodthirsty Comanches can be of help in this respect. But it is. Knowledge of others forces us to realize that our ways, our beliefs and ideals, are only our own solutions to what may be common human problems. We come to see that there are many ways of thinking and acting, and that simply because other ways are different from our own does not inevitably make them inferior or wrong. In short, comparative studies of cultures help to lessen the provincial, parochial belief in the superiority of one's own culture. In a day when we are closer than ever before to the rest of the world, it is vital that we have the capacity to understand others and to appraise ourselves realistically.
It is all too obvious that in our shrunken, wrangling world the ways in which different groups of men live and die, think and dream, are tremendously varied. Men, insofar as they have been aware that there were other groups of men, have always attempted to explain these differences. But it has been only within the past century that a science seeking to investigate and appraise all of humanity in a relatively dispassionate way has developed. Since the Texas Indians are treated in this book from this special viewpoint it is necessary to explain briefly what it is. The special viewpoint and concepts are those of anthropology, the broad and inclusive science of human races and civilizations.
One possible answer to the question of why various groups of men— tribes or nations—customarily behave differently from one another (i.e., speak different languages, worship various gods, support different social systems, and prefer to eat different foods), is that they are innately different in their temperaments and biological being. Certainly men do differ from one another; some are short, some tall, some dark, others light, a few stupid, a few brilliant, ad infinitum. Moreover, various geographically distinct populations, such as the American Indians or the natives of Australia, often tend to be physically similar to one another and unlike others. These racial groups are real enough, that is, a number of subspecific, interfertile varieties of Homo sapiens can be distinguished (the number depending upon the criteria used to differentiate them). But the most significant fact about the varieties of mankind is that in important anatomical features (lungs, circulatory system, nervous system, etc.) all men are impressively similar. It is the minor details—hair form and color, skin color, nose shape, and so forth—that distinguish them. The numerous differences in custom and behavior that characterize various groups of men have never been traced to differences in the innate capacities of the races involved. All races seem to have intrinsically about the same capabilities. When groups of men do differ in their customary behavior—when, for instance, some avoid their mothers-in-law, believe that disease is caused by witches, and consider the bloody, raw liver of a buffalo the finest delicacy ever to cross the human palate—it is not attributable to their differing biological or racial affiliations. This does not necessarily mean that human races are esactly equal in inherent intellectual capabilities. The members of some races, on the average, may be inherentlv superior or better able to perform certain activities than the average members of another race. But even if this is so it is still of small moment, for the overlap between racial abilities, whatever they are, must be tremendous. If such differences do in fact exist, their nature is wholly unknown.
We are forced to assume that all groups of men, whatever their racial affiliations, have intrinsically about the same capabilities. Specifically, a Karankawa Indian acted, thought, and dreamed in a particular way not because he, as a representative Karankawa, was different in his biological or physical equipment from other men, whether German, Texan, Hottentot, or Comanche, but because he had learned to be a Karankawa from the moment of his birth. To state it another way, given the opportunity a normal child born of Karankawa parents could have grown up to be—to think and act—like a normal individual of any human society on earth. The Texas Indians are particularly pertinent to this discussion since, racially or biologically speaking, they are a rather homogeneous entity. A11 are members of the Mongoloid race and belong to its American Indian subdivision. The physical variations of Texas Indians were minor, being confined to slight differences in stature and skin color. If the differences in the behavior of various peoples were rooted in their varying race or biology, we should expect all Texas Indians to have had similar, if not identical, customs and patterns of behavior. Nothing could be further from the actual case. The various tribes of Texas Indians were about as diversified in their behavior as Texans, Frenchmen, Chinese, and Bantus are in theirs.
Since the varying biological make-up of various groups of men fails to explain why these groups can consistently behave so differently, what can? Some would immediately claim that the natural environment or habitat is responsible for the diverse behavior of tribes and nations. Surely the snow, ice, and cold do have a great deal to do with why the Eskimos behave like Eskimos and not like Tahitians. But is it as simple as this? Obviously not, for if the habitat determined how men live, could there ever have been a change from one way of life to some other in an unchanging habitat? The present denizens of Galveston are not Karankawas, not nearly. Yet this habitat has not changed perceptibly since the Karankawas roamed the region. There is a close and intimate relationship between habitats and the ways in which men live, but it is not a determinative one. Habitat I does not produce civilization A, nor habitat II nation B. For any habitat, even those that are restrictive and difficult, there are at least several different methods of living possible and usually a great many more. Anthropologists often dispose of this problem by stating that the habitat limits but does not determine the way of life of a people. To be more concrete, Eskimos cannot raise bananas or figs, and the Tahitians could not utilize the igloo for housing. A knowledge of a people's habitat is important in understanding some of the more immediate problems with which they are faced, and this is certainly so for Texas Indians. But it is not the key to understanding them; it is but the stage on which they tread.
Why, then, were Karankawas Karankawas? Why did they think and act differently from Comanches, Lipans, or for that matter, modern, urban Texans? The answer is their culture. The human organisms called Karankawas behaved in a distinctive Karankawan manner because of the culture that possessed them. This, of course, is not a real answer to our question; it merely gives a name to the phenomena responsible for distinctive Karankawan behavior. "Culture" is a word which is slowly seeping into the public vocabulary, but with a vague, shadowy meaning. It could hardly be otherwise when anthropologists themselves currently use the term in many different ways and with a variety of meanings. Originally most anthropologists embraced the definition set forth by the great English anthropologist Edward B. Tylor: "Culture or civilization, taken in its wide ethnographic sense, is that complex whole which includes knowledge, belief, art, morals, law, custom, and any other capabilities and habits acquired by man as a member of society," and this remains one of the more useful definitions of culture. For the purposes of this book a culture may be taken to mean that "organization of objects (tools, ritualistic paraphernalia, materials of art, etc.), acts (patterns of behavior, customs, rituals, institutions), ideas (belief, knowledge, lore), and sentiments (feelings, attitudes)" which characterize a particular tribe or nation.
Every human organism is born into one culture or another, and quite literally it embraces and envelops him at the moment of birth. We may liken a human infant to a sponge with a thirst for liquids. What it does soak up—oil, salt water, vinegar, ditch water—is determined by the liquid in which it is immersed. Similarly, whether the child grows up to become preacher or cannibal, business tycoon or naked hunter, streetwalker or gleaner in the bush, is determined by the particular culture into which the fates drop him. Different individuals, because of their varied potentialities and the happenstances of their lives, respond in various ways to the cultures in which they find themselves. But a person born in Dallas, no matter what his or her inherent potentialities, cannot grow up there to be a Chinese peasant, a Tibetan lama, or an Eskimo hunter. The native-born Dallas youth learns to speak a variety of American English, drive an auto mobile, kiss girls, believe that polygamy is wrong, call his mother's brother "uncle," and so forth. If he does not learn to do and believe these things it is because he either is naturally defective or has learned otherwise from a foreign cultural source. He cannot, of course, help himself; the human sponge absorbs that culture of which he is a part. In most cultures, in fact, the beliefs, habits, and actions acquired as a member of society are so unquestioningly, unconsciously absorbed that a person does not realize he has "learned" them, nor that there may be alternatives to them. How many Americans (or Dallas youths, if you prefer) ever think that kissing is anything but a "natural" way for the human organism to express affection? Yet in many cultures people do not kiss at all. Much more could be said about the pervasiveness, the hold, which men's cultures have over them, but it is not necessary for our purposes to do so. It is enough to realize that from birth to death, awake or asleep, man is immersed in culture; that men are gripped by cultures which existed centuries before they were born and, barring nuclear annihilation, will continue after they are gone.
We may view culture, too, as something like a stream, flowing down through the ages, gaining mass and momentum as it moves, parting here, rivulets joining there, and farther on maybe an old oxbow, its waters stagnating in the sun. For the great enveloping blanket of culture, this design for living, is an accumulating, changing, moving product of the ages. A half million or a million years ago man's ancestors developed the unique capacity to be cultured, and humanity was born. Early cultures were crude; they did not equip men with effective, efficient ways of living. But as the ages coursed by, knowledge about the world accumulated, men learned how to live in it more efficiently and effectively. The transition from brutish, club-wielding cave dweller to well-fed, long-lived, literate modern has been a slow, arduous, though accelerating climb, a magnificent, overpowering tale of triumph. And today civilization stands on the threshold of even greater triumphs, of developing superior ways of harnessing the forces of nature, of achieving more effective ways of living.
The story of the Texas Indians concerns but a minute segment of human existence, a cupful taken in a moment from the stream of human events. For our interests lie in the nature of historic Texas Indian cultures (Plains tribes excepted) prior to the time they were greatly changed by the contagion of Western civilization.
The chapters have been arranged in an ascending order of technological productivity. Those tribes who, because of environmental restrictions or other reasons, produced the least amount of food and other useful goods have been placed first, the more productive, richer tribes later. Thus, the savages of the Western Gulf culture area—Coahuiltecans and Karankawas—are discussed before the Wichitas and Caddoes. It should be noted, too, that the terms "savage" and "barbaric" are used to indicate levels of technological productivity and are not meant in a disparaging sense. The ranking used is, however, only of the roughest sort; convenience has also played a part. The Lipans should perhaps be placed above the Tonkawas, and the Atakapans, or at least some of them, might well be placed with the Karankawas.
W. W. Newcomb, Jr.
"Newcomb's book is likely to remain the best general work on Texas Indians for a long time."
—American Antiquity
"The Indians of Texas, by W. W. Newcomb, Jr., is an excellent and long-needed survey of the ethnography of the Indian tribes who resided within the present limits of Texas since the beginning of the historic period.... The book is the most comprehensive. scholarly, and authoritative account covering all the Indians of Texas, and is an invaluable and indispensable reference for students of Texas history, for anthropologists, and for lovers of Indian lore."
"Dr. Newcomb writes persuasively and with economy, and he has used his material very well indeed.... his presentation makes good reading of what might have been a book only for the specialists."
—Saturday Review

Given his omnipresence on the red carpet, it's a pretty safe bet that you'll get a slew of cocktail and evening dresses at an Elie Saab show, so it was a pleasant surprise that the designer offered much in the way of daywear this season. The opening peplum skirt suit, fur coats, high waist jumpers, and a beautiful dual tone draped jumper stood out as particularly strong. That said, no one can argue with the mesmerizing effect of Saab's eveningwear. Whether it be a body hugging monochrome jersey dress or a slinky gold sequin gown, each of the floor length looks that made it into the show were breathtaking. It's also worth noting that slits were incredibly daring this season with one look even showing a peek of the model's undergarments...Angelina Jolie, are you watching?

Supra-nonlinear photorefractive response of single-walled carbon nanotube- and -doped nematic liquid crystal82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1577215View Description Hide Description
We have observed an extremely large electro-optically induced photorefractive effect in nematic liquid crystaldoped with single-walled carbon nanotubes and fullerene The effective refractive index change coefficient can be as large as 7 which is >1000 times larger than previous observations. We describe the basic mechanisms and conditions necessary for occurrence of such nonlinearities.
Optical filtering by leaky guided modes in macroporous silicon82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1577382View Description Hide Description
We propose an optical filtering mechanism in a porous material based on wavelength-dependent losses for leaky modes in pore waveguides. The spectral transmission characteristics of such filters can be controlled by applying thin-film coatings to the pore walls. Such filters will find application in the deep UV spectral range where traditional approaches to filter design fail due to lack of suitable materials.
Electrically color-tunable defect mode lasing in one-dimensional photonic-band-gap system containing liquid crystal82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1577829View Description Hide Description
Electrical tuning of the wavelength of the defect-mode lasing in a one-dimensional periodic structure has been demonstrated using a dye-doped nematic liquid crystal as a defect layer in the periodic structure. Lasing wavelength is widely tuned upon applying an electric field, which is due to the refractive index change in the defect layer caused by the field-induced realignment of the liquid crystal molecules.
Enhanced single-photon emission from a quantum dot in a micropost microcavity82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1577828View Description Hide Description
We demonstrate a single-photon source based on a quantum dot in a micropost microcavity that exhibits a large Purcell factor together with a small multiphoton probability. For a quantum dot on resonance with the cavity, the spontaneous emission rate is increased by a factor of 5, while the probability to emit two or more photons in the same pulse is reduced to 2% compared to a Poisson-distributed source of the same intensity. In addition to the small multiphoton probability, such a strong Purcell effect is important in a single-photon source for improving the photon outcoupling efficiency and the single-photon generation rate, and for bringing the emitted photon pulses closer to the Fourier transform limit.
Fluorene-based polymer gain media for solid-state laser emission across the full visible spectrum82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1576906View Description Hide Description
We report a study of the optical gain properties of three polyfluorenes with chemically tuned emission characteristics that span 400–800 nm. We demonstrate low threshold light amplification in the blue, green, and red spectral ranges via amplified spontaneous emission(ASE) in optically pumped planar asymmetric waveguides. Gain and loss measurements at the peak ASE wavelengths show large net gains, and low losses, 15⩾α⩾3 Our findings establish fluorene-based polymers as an attractive family of materials for use in tuneable solid-state lasers that emit at wavelengths across the whole visible spectrum.
High-performance photorefractive organic glass with near-infrared sensitivity82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1577214View Description Hide Description
A high-performance organic glass mixture comprised of two dicyanomethylenedihydrofuran derivatives is presented. A pronounced two-beam coupling effect was observed at a wavelength of 830 nm in an unsensitized composition. Sensitization with (2,4,7-trinitro-9fluorenylidene)malononitrile (TNFM) led to a significant increase in the two-beam coupling gain coefficient, reaching a net value of at an electric field of 45 V/μm at 1% TNFM, and resulted in an improvement in photorefractive speed.
Designer infrared filters using stacked metal lattices82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1579115View Description Hide Description
We have designed and fabricated infrared filters for use at wavelengths Unlike conventional dielectric filters used at the short wavelengths, ours are made from stacked metal grids, spaced at a very small fraction of the performance wavelengths. The individual lattice layers are gold, the spacers are polyimide, and they are assembled using integrated circuit processing techniques; they resemble some metallic photonic band-gapstructures. We simulate the filter performance accurately, including the coupling of the propagating, near-field electromagnetic modes, using computer aided design codes. We find no anomalous absorption. The geometrical parameters of the grids are easily altered in practice, allowing for the production of tuned filters with predictable useful transmission characteristics. Although developed for astronomical instrumentation, the filters are broadly applicable in systems across infrared and terahertz bands.
Vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser operating with photonic crystal seven-point defect structure82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1577835View Description Hide Description
A vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser with a two-dimensional photonic crystal(PC)structure has been investigated for single lateral mode operation. The PC confined mode can be controlled by the lattice constant, the hole diameter, the etching depth, and the defectstructure. A seven-point defectstructure is proposed to enhance the confinement effect, which is diluted by finite hole depth of the PCstructure. We obtained a pure PC confined mode under room-temperature cw conditions with a PClattice constant of 2 μm, hole diameters of 1.0 and 1.4 μm, and depths of 1.85 and 1.92 μm, respectively.
Anticompetition of laser modes82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1578708View Description Hide Description
Anticompetition of laser modes is observed. In this behavior, the increase of intensity in one lasing mode could enhance the intensity of another mode, which is opposite to the usual competition behavior and so-called anticompetition. In our experiments using the semiconductor laser with very broadband gain medium, anticompetition exists when the laser modes have their wavelengths widely separated. Anticompetition can be observed for spectral separation of 138 nm and is even more prominent for spectral separation up to 167 nm. Theoretical analysis shows that anticompetition is due to the physics similar to optical pumping.
Temperature-dependent emission intensity and energy shift in InGaN/GaN multiple-quantum-well light-emitting diodes82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1578539View Description Hide Description
Temperature-dependent electroluminescence(EL) of InGaN/GaN multiple-quantum-welllight-emitting diodes(LEDs) has been investigated to illustrate the role of localization effects in carrier capture and recombination. The devices have identical structure but with varying indium content in the active region. A large redshift of the emission peak with decreasing temperature is observed in the UV and blue LEDs over the temperature range of 77–200 K, accompanying a pronounced decrease of EL intensity. This redshift reflects carrier relaxation into lower energy localized states and the change in carrier recombination dynamics at low temperatures. In contrast, the peak energy of the green LEDs exhibits a smaller temperature-induced shift, and the emission intensity increases monotonically with decreasing temperature down to 5 K. Based on a rate equation analysis, we find that the densities of the localized states in the green LEDs are more than two orders of magnitude higher than that in the UVLED.
Photonic band gap in inverse opals82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1578691View Description Hide Description
(PLZT) inverse opalphotonic crystals were synthesized by a process of self-assembly in combination with a sol-gel technique. In this process, PLZT precursors were infiltrated into the interstices of the opal template assembled by monodisperse submicron polystyrene spheres, and then gelled in a humid environment. Polystyrene template was removed by calcining the specimen at a final temperature of accompanied with the crystallization of perovskite phase in PLZT inverse opal network. Scanning electron microscope images show that the inverse opals possess a fcc structure with a lattice constant of 250 nm. A wide photonic band gap in the visible range is observed from transmission spectra of the sample. Such PLZT inverse opals as photonic crystals should be of importance in device applications.
8-W high-efficiency continuous-wave semiconductor disk laser at 1000 nm82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1579137View Description Hide Description
We demonstrate more than 8-W continuous-wave output power with good beam quality from an optically pumped semiconductor disk laser. The combination of low threshold density of and high differential efficiency of 60% results in an optical-to-optical conversion efficiency of 46% for this high output level. Good epitaxial quality and low thermal resistance allow the scaling of output power with pump spot area.

High-intensity regime of x-ray generation from relativistic laser plasmas82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1577832View Description Hide Description
We report experiments exhibiting specific features in generating hard x rays with femtosecond laserplasmas as relativistic intensities are approached. Copper foils are irradiated with 1-J/130-fs Ti:sapphire laser pulses, and the x rays are detected with spatial resolution. The results demonstrate a dramatic reduction in the x-ray-emitting spot size at intensities around and a corresponding increase in the x-ray flux density. These findings are explained in terms of forward acceleration of electrons due to relativistic effects.
Mass spectrometry sampling method for characterizing high-density plasma etching mechanisms82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1577831View Description Hide Description
Mass spectrometry sampling using a "through-the-platen" technique is described with respect to its utility in characterizing high-density plasma etching processes for semiconductors. A custom substrate platen/sampling aperture is described and its effectiveness in characterizing plasma/surface reactions is demonstrated. The technique is applied to the characterization of GaAsetching in a high-density plasma chemistry.

Improved photoluminescence of pulsed-laser-ablated thin-film phosphors by Gd substitution82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1573360View Description Hide Description
Gd-substituted luminescent thin films have been grown on (0001) substrates using pulsed-laser deposition. The filmsgrown under different deposition conditions have been characterized using microstructural and luminescent measurements. The crystallinity, surface morphology, and photoluminescence(PL) of the films are highly dependent on the amount of Gd. The PLbrightness data obtained from filmsgrown under optimized conditions have indicated that the PLbrightness is more dependent on the surface roughness than on the crystallinity of the films. In particular, the incorporation of Gd into lattice could induce a remarkable increase of PL. The highest emission intensity was observed with thin film whose brightness was increased by a factor of 3.1 in comparison with that of films. This phosphor has promise for application to the flat panel displays.
Comparison of radiative and structural properties of 1.3 μm quantum-dot laser structures grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition and molecular-beam epitaxy: Effect on the lasing properties82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1578182View Description Hide Description
We have studied the radiative and structural properties of identical quantum dot laser structures grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition(MOCVD) and molecular beam epitaxy(MBE). Despite the comparable emission properties found in the two devices by photoluminescence,electroluminescence, and photocurrent spectroscopy, efficient lasing from the ground state is achieved only in the MBE sample, whereas excited state lasing is obtained in the MOCVD device. Such a difference is ascribed to the existence of the internal dipole field in the MOCVD structure, induced by the strong faceting of the dots, as observed by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy.
Highly uniform (Cd,Mn,Zn)Se/(Zn,Mn)Se quantum dot array formation by means of thermal treatments82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1578163View Description Hide Description
Thermal treatments of (Cd,Mn,Zn)Se/(Zn,Mn)Se multiquantum well heterostructures inside the electron microscope resulted in the formation of three-dimensional CdSe based quantum dots(QDs). The array uniformity of the QDs was investigated by means of the -contrast imaging technique in the scanning transmission electron microscope and found to be superior to that of Stranski–Krastanow grown CdSe based QDs. The outcome of the heating experiment demonstrated that thermal treatments might be considered as one of the ways in obtaining highly ordered QD arrays. Possible mechanisms of the QD formation by means of thermal treatments are also discussed.
Spherical Nb single crystals containerlessly grown by electrostatic levitation82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1578517View Description Hide Description
Spherical Nbsingle crystals were grown via containerless electrostatic levitation (ESL). Samples became spherical at melting in levitation and undercooled typically 300–450 K prior to nucleation. As-processed samples were still spherical without any macroscopic shape change by solidification showing a uniform dendritic surface morphology. Crystallographic {111} planes exposed in equilateral triangular shapes on the surface by preferential macroetching and spotty back-reflection Laue patterns confirm the single crystal nature of the ESL-processed Nb samples. No hysteresis in magnetization between zero field and field cooling also implies a clean defect-free condition of the spherical Nbsingle crystals.
Photoinduced phase transition of metallic SmS thin films by a femtosecond laser82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1577824View Description Hide Description
Metallic SmS thin films with 100–2000 nm in thickness were prepared by rf magnetron sputtering. The metallic- to semiconductor-phase transition was induced by a regeneratively amplified mode-locked Ti:sapphire laser. The shifts of the (200) peak due to the phase transition were observed by grazing incidence x-ray diffraction(GIXD) analysis. This phase transition was accompanied by the significant reflectance change of the thin films up to 45% in the near-infrared region. The depth of the phase transition layer from the surface of the film irradiated by a femtosecond laser pulse was estimated ∼200 nm from the depth profile of GIXD.
Tuning the structural and optical properties of 1.3-μm InAs/GaAs quantum dots by a combined InAlAs and GaAs strained buffer layer82(2003); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1577827View Description Hide Description
A combined InAlAs and GaAs strained buffer layer was presented to tailor the structural and optical properties of 1.3-μm InAs/GaAs quantum dots. This growth technique exhibits an increment of InAs quantum-dot density from to and an improvement of energy separation between the quantum-dot ground and first-excited states from 84 to 93 meV upon adjusting the thickness of GaAs in InAlAs–GaAs buffer layer. We also investigate the effect of an InAlAs layer surrounding InAs quantum dots on photoluminescence intensity with increasing the thickness of InAlAs layer in a 6-nm InAlAs–InGaAs composite cap layer, and no negative effect has been observed.

There are a lot of talented players in the 2011 NBA Draft, but many fewer have something else just as vital to a successful NBA career.
If talent and athleticism are a sports car, basketball IQ is the key. You can have as powerful and beautiful a car as you want, but without the key, you can't drive it.
The same goes for a basketball player. You can be the greatest athlete on the planet, but you'll fail in the NBA if you don't possess nuance, awareness and the ability to adjust/improvise.
Conversely, a less talented and athletic player has had many a successful NBA career because of basketball smarts.
In a world full of world-class athletes, brains and knowledge still rule. What sits between your ears is still more important than how high you can jump, how strong you are and how much range is on your jumpshot.
So who are the players that will separate themselves from their contemporaries as rookies in next year's NBA?
Let's find out with the 10 prospects possessing the highest basketball IQ.

Since the end of his junior season, Hubbs has been busy working on a few if any weaknesses while helping his AAU squad M33M win a ton of games. The results of his efforts haven't gone unnoticed, evident by the countless offers of scholarships and endless phone calls he receives on a daily basis from those attempting to convince Hubbs that their college is the place to be once he graduates next May.
While the calls are endless and the mailbox regularly yields offer after offer that would cause most high school players to get a bit cocky, Hubbs has managed to remain humble. He loves the game of basketball and spends tireless hours every week working out and playing the game.
If there is a drawback in all the hysteria, it is the fact there isn't much time for him to enjoy simply being a teenager.
Hubbs has a small circle of close friends and spends what little time he has to himself concentrating on video games.
It seems at one point or another nearly every day he is asked which school he will choose to call home after completing high school.
The attention he receives from the community leaves him with a wide grin and appreciation for others, not arrogance. Hubbs has been raised to be the way he is by his parents, Robert II and Lesia. He readily gives autographs to youngsters not far from his own age when he is spotted out, something he said will never change as long as his star continues to shine.
"I like signing autographs and taking pictures with people," added Hubbs. "I went to an NBA game one time and tried to take a picture of a player and they pushed me off. I will always take the time because that's the right thing to do."
After high school, the next step is college. So, where will Hubbs continue his career after graduation and make time for those photo and autograph sessions? The answer to the question is one many, many coaches and fans alike would like to know. When asked about his future, Hubbs' sheepish grin appears and he shakes his head.
"Right now I'm just listening to all the offers. I've made some unofficial visits to some schools, but I just want to continue to work and get better and I'll make that decision hopefully before we start our season next year," he added. "I just take things day by day and let God handle all of it for me right now."
Yes, Hubbs said later. The soft-spoken upcoming senior at Dyer County High School isn't in a rush to do much of anything other than continuing to get stronger at the game he has loved since picking up a ball as a child and playing with his father.
When the time comes, he will have a difficult decision to make when considering his choices. While most high school players would be thrilled with a D-1 scholarship, Hubbs currently has 18 legitimate high-major scholarship offers on the table awaiting his decision.
The list is like a who's who of college basketball. Headlined by Duke University, some others included in the hunt for his services are Tennessee, Vanderbilt, Missouri, Gonzaga, Florida, Mississippi State, Auburn, Arkansas and Memphis to name a few. All will have to wait, however, until Hubbs makes his decision on which school will be best for him.
An impressive list to say the least, and those are just some of the offers Hubbs is currently considering. The 6'6 shooting guard acknowledged that as of right now he had a list of his top three schools in the running, but didn't want to release it because as he said, "it could change at any time."
While the offers continue to roll in faster than the family can get to the mailbox or answer the phone, Hubbs left on Friday for Colorado Springs, Colo. on a trip that will have him wearing the colors of the USA should he be selected as one of the 12 members of the USA U17 World Championship Team. A late addition to the developmental squad thanks to his hard work and some possible influence from Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski, Hubbs was excited about the opportunity.
"I got a call to come and try out for the team and that felt good. To be able to wear the USA jersey and represent our country would be a great honor and I'm excited about the chance to try out," said Hubbs.
Whether or not Hubbs is selected for the squad, in another month or so he will begin his senior season. The gym at DCHS will surely see many new faces as Hubbs and crew begin the final campaign of his high school career in November.
Currently the second-leading scorer in school history with 1602 points, Hubbs is also high on the school record list in rebounds with 444. With 133 career steals as well as 140 assists, chances are Hubbs will leave DC holding school records in multiple categories.
While the individual stats are nice to look at, Hubbs would really like to have a shot at a state title in 2013, something he believes is a realistic possibility.
"That's always been the goal ever since I've been there. We want to go to state and we'll work hard to get there," said Hubbs.
Robert Hubbs has a special talent. He plays basketball with a passion to become the best and deserves the attention given. He's a class act that, chances are, we'll all be watching for years to come whether it's in high school, college or the NBA.
This is a shining star that will continue to shine as we all watch from the edge of our seats.
