Banerjee and colleagues at Harvard and Rice Universities author feature story, "Two-Dimensional van der Waals Materials," published in the September 2016 issue of Physics Today
The article provides an overview of the physics, technology, and device applications of 2D materials including graphene and beyond-graphene 2D materials as well as their wide variety of heterostructures forming completely new materials known as "van der Waals solids". The visionary article also discusses the prospects of employing such 2D materials for realizing layered nano- structures devices and circuits with atomic precision- a scientific dream of renowned physicist, Richard Feynman.
Professor Banerjee's group have made seminal contributions toward advancing the understanding of 2D materials physics and uniquely exploited their properties in overcoming the limitations of conventional bulk materials (such as silicon and III-V semiconductors) for addressing power dissipation and other fundamental challenges in nanoscale transistors, interconnects and sensors. For example, a key device application highlighted in the article is a new class of transistors, the 3D/2D vertical heterostructure tunnel-field-effect-transistor demonstrated by Professor Banerjee's group (Nature, 2015) that exhibits unprecedented low leakage currents and can switch with only 0.1 volts resulting in over 90% savings in power consumption.

UC Santa Barbara welcomes 769 new graduate students into its ranks next week, and this group of incoming students is one of the most diverse ever. UCSB GradPost interviews Pedro Cisneros who will be joining the ECE department specializing in Communications, Control, and Signal Processing.
Pedro was born in California and moved at a young age to Peru. His entire family is Peruvian, but he will be the third generation to earn a Ph.D. from a UC school (his grandfather went to UC Riverside and his father went to UC Davis). Pedro studied Electrical Engineering at the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru and will be pursuing a Ph.D. at UCSB in Electrical Engineering, with an emphasis on Communications, Control, and Signal Processing. Pedro explained, "Since school, I have had an equal love for math, letters, and arts. I thought of engineering as a possible way to combine those three." He is interested in the field of Control Theory, which deals with a considerable amount of math and has a lot of theoretical work, as well as its application to biology, sociology, complex systems, and other applied math studies.
Pedro said that he is looking forward to making Santa Barbara his second home, and he is excited about both the academic opportunities and the fun activities it has to offer. Something you might not know about Pedro is that he has created over 27 paintings and has done four public art expositions in Peru. He also plays frontón, a Peruvian sport similar to squash, and he has a basic understanding of Quechua, an indigenous Peruvian language.
UCSB GradPost – "Who's new: Introducing our 2016 incoming graduate student cohort" (full article)
This year is one of the most diverse years ever with the campus welcoming 769 new graduate students. With 66 students, ECE is among the most popular disciplines and Engineering has the most with 207.
At UCSB, there are a variety of gender identities represented in our student population. From the current demographic data we have collected on the incoming graduate student class, 52 percent of students identified as men and 48 percent identified as women. Starting with the Fall 2017 admissions cycle, all applicants to UCSB will have the option to choose among six gender identities listed on admissions forms: male, female, trans male, trans female, gender queer/gender non-conforming, and different identity. Additionally, all current UC students will be able to update their gender and sexual identity through the UCSB Registrar if they would like to.
Most of the incoming graduate students are between the ages of 22 and 30, but our youngest incoming student is 20 years old and our oldest is 57 years old. Sixteen percent are first-generation college students, and 25 percent of our new grad students identify as an underrepresented minority.
UCSB's graduate students are coming from 45 different countries – from China to Chile, Sweden to South Africa, Mexico to Malaysia – representing nearly every continent. In fact, roughly one-third of incoming students (247, to be exact) are coming from places outside the country. Our U.S. students hail from 43 of the 50 states, but over half of them are California natives.
The most popular disciplines that our new graduate students chose were Environmental Science and Management (99 new students), the Teacher Education Program (81 new students), and Electrical and Computer Engineering (66 new students). By division, the most new graduate students are in Engineering (207) and Mathematical, Life, and Physical Sciences (184), followed by Education (114) and Humanities and Fine Arts (101).

UC Santa Barbara welcomes 769 new graduate students into its ranks next week, and this group of incoming students is one of the most diverse ever. UCSB GradPost interviews Vivek Adarsh who will be joining the ECE department specializing in communications and signal processing.
Vivek moved around quite a bit growing up due to his father's profession, but he spent most of his childhood in Hyderabad, India. "A new city, a new place every 2-3 years – it helped me adapt quickly and expand my comfort zone," he said. "That's one thing I'll be carrying with me to Santa Barbara." Vivek holds a Bachelor of Technology degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Pune, and he'll be joining the Electrical and Computer Engineering department at UCSB to specialize in communications and signal processing. He explained his research interests by saying, "Today, even though we're using the Internet at unimaginable speeds, about 60% of the world still lacks basic connectivity, specifically developing nations. Technology in itself is futile if it doesn't reach the masses. This is what sparked my interest in communications. I envision a future where each and every household has standard connectivity."
Vivek said he is looking forward to UCSB's amazing research facilities as well as the lovely beaches in Santa Barbara. He enjoys exploring new places, playing the guitar, and reading, and he also fancies himself a foodie. "I'd like to think of myself as a good cook. Well, sort of…! I tend to experiment with new elements. I try out various fusions between different cuisines."

HDR imaging enables the capture of an extremely wide range of the illumination present in a scene and so produces images that more closely resemble what we see with our own eyes
In the article, "Practical High Dynamic Range Imaging of Everyday Scenes: Photographing the world as we see it with our own eyes," authors Sen (UCSB) and Cecilia Aguerrebere (Duke) explain the problem of limited dynamic range in the standard imaging pipeline and then present a survey of state-of-the-art research in HDR imaging, including the technology's history, specialized cameras that capture HDR images directly, and algorithms for capturing HDR images using sequential stacks of differently exposed images. Because this last is among the most common methods for capturing HDR images using conventional digital cameras, they also discuss algorithms to address artifacts that occur when using with this method for dynamic scenes.
Finally, they consider systems for the capture of HDR video and conclude by reviewing open problems and challenges in HDR imaging.

Rosborough, a Ph.D. researcher in Associate Professor Jonathan Klamkin's Integrated Photonics Laboratory (iPL), talks about her experience choosing the photonics life
Rosborough was interviewed by The Huffington Post blogger Diane Propsner as a part of her series on "amazing women's college STEM alumnae." Rosborough, a Ph.D. researcher in the lab of ECE Associate Professor Jonathan Klamkin, talks about her experience as an engineer who started college early in an academically accelerated program – from getting involved in undergraduate research to what it's like to be a photonics engineer today.
HuffPo: How did you become interested in integrated photonics?
Rosborough: After graduating [from Mary Baldwin College], I found a master's program in semiconductor devices at the University of Oregon. As a part of this degree, I completed a year-long internship at IBM, where I had the opportunity to interact with Ph.D.'s in several areas of IC production expertise. When I applied to Ph.D. programs that year, I sent applications to electrical engineering and materials science departments. It was during this application process that I learned about integrated photonics. Photonics excites me because it's on the cutting edge of research while combining physics and technology. Along the way, although I wasn't always quite sure where I'd end up, I kept pursuing the types of opportunities that excited me until I found my niche.
The Huffington Post – "My Conversation with Victoria Rosborough, a Budding Photonics Engineer"
Three Electrical & Computer Engineering undergrads – Jonathan Madajian, James McKenna and Aditya Wadaskar participate in the summer research program designed to provide the technical and professional training required for undergraduates to transition into careers within the photonics industry
Tomorrow's photonics experts are getting a look at the leading edge of the technology today, thanks to the AIM Photonics Research Undergraduate Apprenticeship at UC Santa Barbara. The eight-week summer research program provides community college and UCSB undergraduate students with the technical and professional training that will enable them to transition into careers in the photonics industry.
"The AIM apprentice program exposes students to leading research and gives them the opportunity to learn research skills, interact with professors and graduate students and advance state-of-the-art research," said John Bowers, ECE Professor and director of the UCSB-based West Coast hub of the federally funded AIM Photonics national manufacturing and research consortium. "It is a great opportunity to see if a life of research, or at least graduate school, is of interest to them."
Bowers, an internationally renowned expert on photonics and electronics, is among a group of UCSB faculty members their graduate and postdoctoral students who mentored 11 undergraduate interns. The two-month program concluded with day one final presentations and day two poster colloquium.

Washington Monthly ranks UCSB among 2016 top National Universities; also lauds campus for offering the "Best Bang for the Buck"
On its annual list of the country's top universities, Washington Monthly has ranked UC Santa Barbara among the top 20. The 2016 National Universities ranking was released today in the magazine's College Guide issue.
UCSB is ranked number 17 overall, and number 9 among public universities. In addition, it is number 19 in the magazine's "Best Bang for the Buck" rankings in the Western Schools category. These exclusive rankings highlight the universities and colleges in America dedicated to making marketable degrees accessible to lower-income students.
While U.S. News & World Report usually awards its highest ratings to private universities, the editors of Washington Monthly prefer to give public universities more credit, and higher rankings. Eleven of the top 20 universities in the Washington Monthly rankings are taxpayer-funded.
"UC Santa Barbara is among the institutions that are doing the best job of helping students attain marketable degrees at affordable prices," said Paul Glastris, Washington Monthly editor-in-chief. "As students consider UCSB, they can be confident that the institution is committed to serving them — and the nation — well."

Study doubts need for area-wide Freeland sewer
Neither population growth nor environmental concerns justify the development of sewers in residential areas of Freeland, according to the preliminary results of a study recently released by the Freeland Water and Sewer District.
In fact, Freeland isn't growing nearly as fast as many believe and the only potential need for sewers is in the commercial core, an area largely located on the north side of Highway 525.
"We have to be very pragmatic about moving forward with any sewer plan," said Lou Malzone, a commissioner with the water district. "The population growth just isn't there for a district-wide system."
"The study is telling me we need to go back to the drawing board with the county and redefine growth in Freeland," he said.
The citizen's advisory committee, an advisory group for the district, has worked for about a year to compile population and growth data, examine environmental issues and investigate an alternative to a proposed $40 million sewer system that sank under the weight of public criticism and funding problems last year.
The committee includes Malzone, John Brunke, Al Peyser, Freeland Chamber of Commerce Director Chet Ross, John Chaffins and Jerry Stonebridge.
Using a range of local and state information sources, the study looked at growth and population trends for several Freeland areas: properties within the Freeland zip code, the boundary used by the U.S. Census Bureau known as the census designated place, the non municipal urban growth area and the Freeland Water and Sewer District.
While population growth has increased in some areas by more than 4 percent annually between 2000 and 2010, it's largely flatlined in most areas at about 1 percent growth since 2008.
"Until the economy recovers the population growth in the Freeland NMUGA (non municipal urban growth area) will remain stagnant and there are no indicators supporting near term recovery," the report said.
"In summary, examination of the various Freeland population and growth planning factors indicates that planning for a Freeland sewer system must consider business as the primary driver," it said.
The study also looked closely at environmental concerns, particularly those related to the Holmes Harbor Shellfish Protection District, to see how they might necessitate the development of a new sewer system.
Using information provided by the Island County Board of Health, the study maintained that in three years of testing, from 2009 to 2011, 310 on-site septic system inspections were performed with 103 corrections made. There were just two reported failures.
The county is in the process of sharing its results with state regulators and hopes to begin the process of removing the closure area, which was formed in 2007.
"The bottom line is it's not septic systems that are doing it (pollution)," said Brunke, chairman of the citizen's advisory committee.
The low number of failures demonstrates that properly designed and maintained septic systems can function year round and that a sewer system is not required to maintain water quality in the harbor, he said.
The committee suggested the county prioritize inspections of very old systems near the water.
Finally, the study looked at an alternative to the now defunct Freeland-wide $40 million sewer system plan. It focused on the commercial core on the north side of Highway 525 with the option of adding an extension to the south side of the street.
The main issue examined was how to treat and dispose of effluent. Any new treatment facility will likely use membrane bio-reactor technology. As for disposal, one option is for an outfall into Admiralty Inlet, another would use wetlands for discharging and a third drain fields.
Preliminary cost estimates were created but they have not yet been released. Malzone said the numbers are still too rough but should be formally presented to the commissioners by the citizens advisory committee next month.
According to Malzone, the importance of the study results is that much of the population data contradicts information in existing documents.
"The study is telling me we need to go back to the drawing board with the county and redefine growth in Freeland," he said.
It's very possible that changes will need to be made to the comprehensive sewer plan and the Freeland sub-area plan.
However, Malzone made it clear that the water and sewer district commissioners won't be making any decisions about any of the options revealed in the study until the board gets input from property owners in the Freeland core through a signed petition.
Malzone said the commissioners are not a "no sewers" board and that it is working to develop a plan for an appropriate sewer system that will fit the existing need.
But a lot has changed.
"We're years into this and we're going back to square one," Malzone said.

|Key Info

It is open plan downstairs with underfloor heating and a wood burning stove for those chilly days. There is plenty to do from boating, fishing, canoeing and beautiful walks.
The Lodge, which was the former head shepherd's house, has had a total make over. It is situated on a busy working farm but with no loss to the peaceful tranquillity that is offered on this most beautiful island. In short, it is a wonderful place to visit. The island only measures 6 miles long and 1.5 miles across, so there is no problem for you to get all around it in one day, be it on foot or bicycle.
Cullipool is the largest village on the island and it is a very picturesque setting with its white cottages. Isle of Luing has not changed very much over the centuries and when you step ashore here, you will feel as if you have stepped back in time. The lush green pasture and the abundance of wildlife make this a dream vacation for nature lovers. From here you get a commanding view of the "Isles of the Sea", made up of Islands of Mull, Lunga, Scarba, Black Isles and Garvellachs. Colonsay and Jura can be seen in the distance.

This was rejected for grain.

Are you an author ready to get your book published but don't know where to start? Or do you think a traditional, advance paying book deal is out of your reach?
Now you can take the stress out of securing a traditional book deal for yourself, and avoid being suckered into self-publishing, or signing a contract without a cash advance.
My Perfect Pitch is a little known technique so powerful traditional publishers they will literally be competing to publish you…
It's a little known fact that publishers make a judgement about authors based on the quality of their submission letter alone. (Your submission letter is the introductory letter that accompanies your manuscript, some people call them cover letters).
Why do you think publishers always ask for one?
If your submission letter is brilliantly written, sharp and engaging, and contains the right information, your manuscript will be read. If it isn't, it won't.
Maybe you are already receiving rejection letters from publishers. Could it be your submission letter? Read this email I recently received from a reader of My Perfect Pitch…
"I've just had a contract for my novel thanks to your ebook…I've been trying to get this book published for 3 years…the only change I've made is your cover letter." Thanks Brian. So glad I found your website. Steve
My name is Brian Grove, the owner of this site and a published author with Little, Brown Book Group, one of the largest publishers in the world. I need to tell you a quick story which should be titled 'unpublished author discovers the secret of how to get published – first time'…
After my book was published I received a phone call from a senior editor at my publishers. She said she was giving a talk at a writers conference, and asked if she could use the letter that I had enclosed when I submitted my book to them. I said yes, of course. Curious, I asked her why? She said, and I quote, "It's the best submission letter we have ever received here."
I was absolutely flabbergasted. This is a multi-million pound publishing group which publishes hundreds of books a year, and gets thousands of book submissions from hopeful authors. I was delighted my submission letter was considered the best they had ever received, and was being used as an example to writers at a conference.
Using this submission letter I didn't get an offer from just one publisher, in fact three publishers became interested in my book. Here are the original letters from the 3 publishers:
These are the publishers I signed with. Soon afterwards they were taken over by Little, Brown, Book Group who re-issued my book in paperback. Here it is now (Authors G)
These were the second publishers to contact me. I spoke to them several times on the phone. They wanted to take my book to the Frankfurt book fair and secure orders.
These were the last publishers I spoke to. By now I was in advanced negotiations with the publishers I eventually signed with, so I decided not to take things any further.
I have written an eBook which contains my winning submission letter. It explains exactly how and why my letter works, and also how you can easily adapt it to your book and secure a publishing deal yourself. I've called my eBook My Perfect Pitch: How To Create The Perfect Book Submission Letter.
Inside My Perfect Pitch you'll discover:
You'll love My Perfect Pitch if:.
What buyers of My Perfect Pitch are saying…
"Hi Brian. I bought your perfect pitch figuring – what the heck. Writing for twenty-five years with no responses from agents or publishers had been frustrating…after using your query letter I got several positive responses and just signed my book deal! Thanks for a great idea. Just don't let too many in on it – just kidding." Robert
"Hi Brian…After I found your website and read all your wonderful advice, I decided that your book was a good buy. Just thought I'd let you know, you've done it again. I'm receiving a contract today. Thank you so much!" Regards, Amanda G
"I sent the first three chapters…two weeks later I received a phone call…Made what I think was a good publishing deal…Your submission letter helped get me in the door…It works. Many thanks" Rona
"Hello Brian…Took up your offer…and after all YOUR hard work…it paid off on a submission…Just received an Email with the offer of a contract. Regards" Allan
Before I got my book published I worried whether I could even secure the interest of one publisher, let alone three. Now you can achieve this for yourself. My Perfect Pitch is not a theory, it's a market proven technique.
My Perfect Pitch will show you how to write a manuscript submission letter publishers want, not what authors think publishers want. Gain astonishing, unprecedented access to publishers, and watch your book jump to the front of the queue.
Join hundreds of other authors and give yourself the best chance of securing a traditional book publishing deal today. Your order is protected by Paypal's Buyer Protection as well as my personal money back guarantee of satisfaction. You can contact me here anytime.

By taking the smaller, non-toll road we passed through a mix of farming areas, mostly olives, but also quite a lot of commercial areas.

Two investment firms are suing Nicaragua for full
repayment of defaulted debt from the 1980s. The outcome could
establish precedents with far-reaching repercussions.
Nicaragua is a poor country that has suffered civil wars,
natural disasters and a series of corruption scandals that have
led to the detention in jail of former president Arnaldo
Alemán. The present government says it is trying to end
corruption, reduce poverty - average incomes are just $500
a year - and qualify for debt relief under the Highly
Indebted Poor Country Initiative (HIPCI). Now it is having to
fend off a group of US investors who are suing the government
for full repayment of defaulted commercial bank debt from the
1980s, plus accrued interest.
Leucadia National Corp., a troubled New York-based
conglomerate, and Van Eck, a New York investment fund, bought
the debt eight years ago for a few cents on the dollar. If they
get their way, their Nicaraguan investment will repay
spectacularly. Van Eck alone bought about $50 million in face
value Nicaraguan loans, which if it were to...

BMI View : Pakistan appears keen on working with Japan to develop renewable energy to reduce its reliance on costly fuel imports and alleviate power shortages. The country possesses significant potential for renewable energy generation, but development of the sector has been constrained by many factors, including uncertainty over existing resources. Data collection by a Japanese delegation could thus help to build credibility, unlocking growth potential. We also believe that the Japanese delegation has much to gain from the arrangement, but highlight that political risks and a poor business environment could erode these benefits.
On November 17 2012, a member of the delegation of Japan International Corporation Agency to Pakistan said that the Japanese government was planning to provide Pakistan with grants and loans for undertaking small alternative energy projects. The delegation is currently conducting a data collection survey on renewable energy development in Pakistan, and counts representatives from Mitsubishi and Hitachi among its members. The delegation is also working closely with the provincial government of Sindh to develop renewable resources in the area.
Pakistan appears keen on working with the Japanese government to develop renewable energy as it is seeking to alleviate power shortages and reduce its reliance on costly fuel imports. Oil- and gas-fired generation accounts for over 60% of the country's total electricity mix, and higher fuel import prices have led to fuel shortages and rising costs. According to the government, Pakistan continues to experience an energy shortage of 4,000 megawatts (MW). Nameplate generating capacity in the country currently stands at 20,000MW, but Pakistan's state utility announced that they are only able to supply 13,000MW due to a lack of affordable fuel.
|More Energy Imports Due To Reliance on Oil and Gas
|Pakistan - Electricity Mix, TWh (LHS); and Energy Imports, US$mn (RHS)
Renewable energy appears to be an appealing solution. Not only does it not involve costly fuel imports, but the country theoretically has significant potential for renewable energy generation. Tomoyasu Fukuchi, a member of the delegation and the consulting engineer of Nippon Koei, said that Pakistan had the world's best insulation with proven power generation of 4-5 kilowatt hours per metre square and more than 3,000 hours of sunshine throughout the year.
Yet, in our opinion, a lack of official data is one of the main reasons for the slow pace of development in Pakistan's renewable energy resources. Over the past few years, renewable energy investors have displayed interest in Gharo and Jhampir because of the availability of more than three years of wind data. However, interest in the Sindh wind corridor has remained relatively stifled due to a lack of data, according to the Sindh Board of Investment (SBI). A lack of data has also led to delays in several major projects, including the 500MW proposed by Chinese oil and gas company United Energy (See our online service, June 06 2012, 'Chinese Support For Largest Wind Farm?').
We believe the delegation's presence in Pakistan is a positive sign for the sector as data can be collected more extensively and credibly. For instance, the provincial government of Sindh has already asked the JICA to assist it in carrying out a wind assessment study in Islamkot to ascertain the actual potential of the area. The Sindh government currently estimates wind potential of the Sindh wind corridor to be 50,000MW, and a reaffirmation of this potential by an independent study from the JICA could be pivotal in unlocking investor interest in the corridor.
Rewards For The Japanese, But Not Without Risks
In our opinion, the Japanese delegation could stand to benefit from investing in renewable energy in Pakistan. Many members of the delegation represent conglomerates that manufacture renewable energy equipment, and are extremely interested in exporting their products to Pakistan. Japanese service and construction companies could also benefit due to Pakistan's lack of expertise in constructing or operating renewable generating capacity.
That said, we highlight that there are numerous risks for investors looking to enter Pakistan's energy or infrastructure market. Firstly, the country's general elections are scheduled to be held in early 2013, and we believe that the ruling Pakistan People's Party (PPP), which heads the present coalition government, faces an uphill struggle for re-election. The PPP is already facing a tough political environment, with the public's discontent near all-time high ( See 'Pakistan Political Outlook - Q1 2013', October 29 2012). Should the PPP lose the election, the incoming government might be less supportive of renewable energy, and reverse progress made on existing projects.

Additionally, Pakistan's business environment continues to present numerous challenges for private foreign companies. Many processes in the country remain highly bureaucratic and lack transparency, raising the risks of corruption. Pakistan's legal system also continues to be bogged down by a backlog of cases and lengthy court procedures. We had previously highlighted how these factors had adversely affected foreign companies operating in Pakistan (see 'PSA Pull-Out Highlights Risks', September 11 2012), and believe these risks continue to be pertinent for investors looking to enter the market.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Burlington VT
1028 PM EDT Tue Oct 25 2016
Low pressure over the Canadian Maritimes will maintain cloudy
conditions and a few snow showers across the higher terrain of the
Adirondacks and northern Vermont through tonight. High pressure
building in from the west will yield lighter wind speeds and some
additional sunny breaks during the day Wednesday. It will remain
seasonably cold with afternoon highs in the upper 30s to lower
40s in most areas. A widespread precipitation event is expected
later Thursday into Friday as low pressure approaches from the
Great Lakes and Ohio Valley region. Precipitation type will be
predominantly rain in the valleys, but some snow accumulation or
mixed precipitation is likely in the mountains at times Thursday
night into Friday morning.
As of 1027 PM EDT Tuesday...Infrared satellite shows persistent
broken to overcast stratocumulus in the northwesterly gradient
flow regime across the North Country, with radar still showing
weak reflectivities in and around the mountains. However, more
breaks in the overcast are evident northwest of YUL. As the
overnight progresses, we should begin to see a trend toward less
cloud cover, though not fully cloud-free which should allow for
temps to cool more quickly than they presently are. A general
decrease in area coverage of mountain snow showers should also
result as RH in snow growth layer begins to drop. All these trends
well handled in going forecast with only noise-level adjustments
Previous near-term discussion issued at 200 pm Tuesday follows...
Continue to see some weak reflectivity returns associated with
shallow instability showers in NW flow across nwrn and n-central
VT. At 18Z, boundary layer is warm enough to generally yield rain
in the Champlain Valley (38-42F), but seeing some intermittent
light snow in surface obs across n-central into nern VT in sfc obs
and available wx cams. Road surfaces are above freezing, so not
anticipating any travel issues through this evening. Freezing
levels this afternoon generally around 1500ft, and will gradually
fall to around 500ft by 06Z tonight. Will see continued chances of
upslope snow showers thru the first half of tonight, with a
dusting to 0.5" possible in communities east of the Green Mtns.
Could see a max of 1-2" at the higher summits of the nrn Greens,
including Jay Peak and Mt. Mansfield. Thereafter, anticipate some
low-level drying, and majority of mesoscale models indicate
decreasing precip chances per simulated reflectivity fields.
Moderate NW winds this afternoon (10-15kt with gusts around 20kt),
will generally decrease overnight to 5-10kt, with little change in
direction. Combination of continued stratus/stratocu and winds
will keep temps from dropping too significantly; looking at
overnight lows upr 20s to lower 30s, warmest near Lake Champlain.
Generally going with a dry forecast Wednesday as surface high
pressure builds ewd into nrn NY by afternoon. May see a few
flurries far nern VT. Weaker p-gradient will also result in
lighter winds, mainly 6-10mph. Decreasing low-level RH fields
suggest we`ll see some additional sunny breaks, especially away
from the higher terrain areas. 850mb temps at 18Z Wed still -9C
to -10C, so will remain colder than normal for late October.
Valley highs mostly 40-44F, with a few upr 30s far nern VT and
across the nrn Adirondacks.
As of 331 PM EDT Tuesday...Wednesday night will remain quiet as a
brief area of high pressure will move through the North Country.
Clouds cover will be slowly decreasing with a few breaks likely
working in but we will stay partly to mostly cloudy throughout.
Cold air advection will remain in place and overnight lows will be
on the chilly side will low 20s in the typical cold locations of
the Northeast Kingdom and northern Adirondacks. Along Lake
Champlain and the nearby locations temps will be in the upper 20s
to low 30s.
Thursday clouds will thicken as a low pressure system begins to
dig in to the north country. Cold air will remain in place over
the eastern portion of the forecast area as we will be in cold air
daming situation with the high pressure over eastern Canada and
the deepening low over the Great Lakes. The system looks fairly
strong as a warm front will bring some warm advection snow
Thursday morning before switching over to rainfall for all
locations below 2500`. Above 2500 expect a mix of snow and mixed
precip for the duration as the max t aloft hovers right at 0C or
below. Guidance continues to show a strong 850mb southerly jet
that develops during the day on Thursday however the max winds
will coincide with the heaviest precip so mixing wont be all that
strong. Downslope winds on the northern facing mountains will
likely be in the 20-30mph range.
As of 359 PM EDT Tuesday...Overnight Thursday the ptype forecast
become a bit more tricky. Guidance shows a warm nose slightly
above 0C at 925-850mb works in after 00z and this coupled with
marginally warm boundary layer temps supports rain in the deeper
valleys and a mixed bag of rain/snow/sleet/freezing rain across
the Adirondacks and eastern Vermont. As the low pushes east on
Friday, thermal profiles become more supportive of a transition
back to snow elevations above 1000ft, but the boundary layer
remains too warm at the surface supporting showers/rain as precip
becomes more orographic in nature on developing northwest flow.
Early thoughts on storm totals through Friday show the highest
elevations with the highest snow totals in the 6-8" range along
the spine of the Green Mountain with 8-12" across the high peaks
of the Adirondacks. Elsewhere expect between a dusting to 2
Next system looks to swing through Saturday through Saturday
night, taking a more northern track than its predecessor, offering
even warmer thermal profiles, enough to produce mainly rain
showers with highs pushing into the mid/upper 40s. Behind it, high
pressure looks to return for Sunday night into Monday.
.AVIATION /02Z Wednesday THROUGH Sunday/...
Through 00z Thursday...BKN-OVC for most of area tonight but some
SCT at times across St. Lawrence Vly (KMSS). Ceilings generally
around 4kft (VFR), but will see MVFR ceilings possibly redevelop
with passing flurries or light snow showers at KSLK/KMPV to occur
thru the first half of tonight (04Z Wed). Decreasing clouds and
becoming VFR all areas after 15Z Wednesday. Winds 5-10kts tonight
into Wednesday.
Outlook 00z Thursday through Sunday...Primarily VFR through 15Z
Thursday with high pressure in place. Low pressure approaching
from the ern Great Lakes and Ohio Valley will bring prevailing
MVFR with intervals of IFR possible later Thursday thru early
Friday. Will see valley rain, and possible snow/mixed pcpn at
times for SLK/MPV during the event. After a brief break Friday
aftn/night, a warm front approaching from the WSW could bring
additional showers Saturday into Saturday night.
NEAR TERM...Banacos/Loconto
SHORT TERM...Deal
LONG TERM...Deal

With Declining Viewership and Staged Storylines, Are Reality TV Shows Slowly But Surely Falling Off?
Reality TV is something that people love in the comfort of their homes, ridicule on Twitter, and highly favor on the blogs and the tabloids. It's something of an art (term used very loosely here) and while there are more than enough series to fill up your DVR for the entire year, it seems as though reality TV has hit a bump in the road both in terms of viewership and creativity.
Summer Bummers
It doesn't come as a surprise that TV in general isn't pulling in the ratings because of the summer. Most people are either working hard and sticking to DVR'ing their favorites or just soaking up the sun and staying away from the TV in general. This summer, ABC decided to join the singing contest bandwagon with "Duets" with successful judges like John Legend, Kelly Clarkson and Robin Thicke. The season opened with okay numbers (six million viewers) in May, but quickly fell to less than four million viewers for its season finale in July. Another promising series for reality TV fanatics was Bristol Palin's show entitled "Bristol Plain: Life's a Tripp" on Lifetime. The show was focused on her new life in her old town (yawn) with her son and everyone's favorite political punch bag, Sarah Palin. Not even her mom could help her ratings; the show tanked with just 726,000 viewers for its first episode, and dropping to a low 426,000 on its second.
The summer premieres of scripted shows like ABC Family's "Pretty Little Liars," TNT's "The Closer" and the newly renovated "Dallas" are pulling in more viewers than reality favorites like "So You Think You Can Dance," Jersey Shore girlies' "Snooki & JWOWW," and VH1's "Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" (although L&HH leads in the ratings for Monday Nights with almost two million viewers and is itself a hit for the network). But what's popular among African-American viewers?
According to Reachingblackconsumers.com, last season, the top reality shows for black teens 12-17 included "Bad Girls Club," adults 18-24, "T.I & Tiny: The Family Hustle," and the 18-54 demographic closes the list with Bravo's "The Real Housewives of Atlanta." With a combined total of over 1.19 million viewers, they haven't raked in the largest numbers.
Black sitcoms/dramas are pulling in a lot more viewers. With just the encores of "Single Ladies," "The Game" and "Let's Stay Together" nearly doubling that average weekly, one would ask the question: Are we done with reality television? I wouldn't put down the petitions just yet, but we may be getting there…
Haven't We Seen This Before?
I sneaked a peak at the ninth (yes, ninth) season of "Bad Girls Club" during an episode that my cousin was watching the other day. Now, she absolutely loves everything drama filled and thinks it's all "Amahhzing," but even she was bored with the new season. "It's more obvious that they [producers] are starting all the fights," she finally realized.
There aren't any secrets anymore when it comes to creating the story. We're all able to spot out the villain, the victim, the b****, and the weakest link – and we all know the sob stories. Viewers are expecting something surprising when watching television, and even though I think we can all agree that a majority of it is scripted, it shouldn't appear as such.
If it's not enough that some shows are getting more and more predictable and fake, it doesn't help that everyone is trying to do the same type of reality show. Need an example? How about the producers of "Big Brother" (CBS) who are suing the creator and producers of ABC's new show "The Glass House." The shows are very similar: A bunch of randoms are stuck in a house with cameras all over to compete for money while dealing with the drama that they (or writers) create. And it doesn't help that many of the former employees of "Big Brother" are now working for the "Glass House."
"Duets" is like "The Voice," and "The X Factor" is like "American Idol." You can find a different rehab-meets-intervention show depending on what channel you choose, and we're just waiting patiently for The Real Housewives of Alaska. And if you hadn't also noticed, there's a reality competition to get in damn near every occupation you want: modeling, cooking, acting, etc. and one for every hobby and job available (towing, working in pawn shops, fishing, being a hairstylist, a doctor, as well as a gypsy and a jailed mobster's wife). We could be reaching reality TV overload.
The Bottom Line: Do We Care Anymore?
There are definitely a load of reality TV shows on now that we probably won't see again (good luck "Duets"), but for every failure of one, there comes another to take its place. Another celeb ready to put their lives out there, another everyday Joe or Jane Schmo ready to become an overnight celebrity. Do we constantly complain and critique these people who put their lives out there for us to see? Yes. Do we have to watch these shows to live? No. At the end of the day, no one forces anyone to watch reality TV. While it may be on almost every blog and entertainment show, realize why it's there–there is a general interest and a large audience for them. If we want to see more scripted television with smart plot lines and that give real hardworking actors jobs, the attention should be placed on Meagan Good and Laz Alonso's new fall show, "Infamous," Kerry Washington's upcoming second season of "Scandal" or even Michael Jai White and Tasha Smith's new comedy, "For Better or Worse." Then we may see an even bigger change in the programming and the way our people are presented (since that's what anti-reality TV folks have been calling for). But it all depends on the storylines we see. The more dull or ridiculous things get in a story, the less viewers you'll see for scripted television and the more you'll find for reality TV, talking over coffee in the morning about folks with names like Karlie Redd and Joseline. Why? Well, let's keep it real. Sometimes it's nice to see that in one hour, your life isn't as much of a hot mess as someone else's. So while it might have been a cruel summer for reality TV, once fall comes around, those barking about the options now will probably be circled around somebody's computer talking about "Basketball Wives" and RHOA. So in the meantime, support what you want to see more of, and stop partaking in what you would like to see less of. Do your part and hope that the reality TV overload will die down (or die off completely) soon enough.
But don't hold your breath…

I agree with the article. Reality TV is slowly playing themselves out. I couldn't be happier! Whatever happen to shows like Martin, The Cosby Show, Living Single, My Wife and Kids, Moesha, Good Times… the list goes on. I would rather watch re-runs of these shows. At least we have SCANDAL!
- BrownBeaty 711
I think that T.I and Tiny, Tia andTamera are great shows and not scripted at all. I will continue and watch those but Bad Girls Club, Love and Hip Hop, Jersey Shore, and Basketball Wives need to go.Those shows are becoming very stale all the fighting is unappealling and unattractive. Showing young people all you have to do is fight to get your way is a bunch of crap.
I definitely agree with the article, but networks choose to do reality shows because they're cheaper. Instead of paying fees to writing rooms, executive producers, actors, the multiple guilds, you get a bunch of nobodies, a few camera men and you're able to show people being hot messes for way cheaper. So once the networks stop being so cheap then we'll be able to get our scripted stuff back.
I'm happy some people agree with me on this one. And I think that playing cheap to create tv shows is the sad part. People who have these jobs don't realize how much power that they have..they only care for the ratings!
- Lawwwwd
I wish it would fall off… I think it's dumbing down America seriously!! I mean Stevie wonder can see this ish is scripted when the people who are at each others throats and boxing on tv are having lunch and acting like cookie crunch girlfriends on twitter…. FAKE AND A FAIL!! If u bout to scratch eyes out on tv I don't want to see y'all all hugged up off camera *side eye mimi*
- Kayo
I don't believe that reality shows are falling off. I mean, every time I turn on the TV, a new reality show is being advertised.

Perfect place to stay
I rented the house for a week since I had family coming from Europe. We were 4 Adults and 6 Kids. Absolutely the perfect place for everybody. They house has everything you need!! I will definitively go back and recommend that place. The walk to the beach was just a few steps. Stores were walking distance and Camille the house owner was wonderful responding to any email I sent.

Thank you
Paradise at Cocoa Beach
The accommodations are fantastic. I was with a group of friends looking for a long weekend getaway from work and our busy lives and we had the best time. The house is beautiful and has everything you can possibly need. The private pool and grill were a huge hit. It's in a wonderful location, just a very short walk to the beach. The pier, grocery store, restaurants, and other activities are within walking distance too. Camilla was very easy to work with, I had no issues. Can't wait to visit agan!
Clean, HUGE. ..close to the beach...would recomend it!
My family and friends rented this property for a two week stay. Everything was wonderful!!!! The beach is not even a 5 minute stroll away and the beach access is easy. No dunes to climb over! Everything you need for your trip is there, no need to bring towels beach stuff etc.... You are really close to Cape Canaveral, the Kennedy Space Center, and the Brevard Zoo. We went to all three. If you like fresh seafood, the fish markets in Cape Canaveral are the place to go, and there is a big pot and a grill at the beach house so that you can cook your selection. We did tuna, lobster and shrimp, what a treat!
Having a swimming pool to come back to at the end of a long beach day is wonderful and the fact that it is saltwater and not chlorine made it even better. Our kids loved it.
Van was very helpful and took care of anything that we needed and any question that we had very quickly.
This is the best vacation rental that I have ever had and I will ABSOLUTELY rent from Camilla and Van again!!!
Wonderful Vacation
We had our family reunion at this house and it was perfect! Everything they said was true of the house! We loved the layout with the bedrooms upstairs, the pool steps out the door, close to the beach, and most of all the awesome air conditioner!!! Plenty of toys for the kids to play with, quiet neighborhood, grill for having cookouts, everything was nice and clean! It was one of the best vacations I've had in years, due to the fact check in and out was easy and effortless! We will definitely book this house again for next year!!!
Excellent...would go back in a heartbeat!
This was the perfect house for a family vacation. There were 9 people total and we had plenty of space! Perfect for vacationing with little ones, the bedrooms are upstairs for naps and bedtime and others can still be downstairs without disturbing them. Having our own pool right out back and the ocean less than a 5 minute walk away was perfect. The owners were always quick to respond to emails and very helpful. Check in and check out was a cinch. Great vacation get away, would recommend to anyone!
