Quantum chemical investigations of electron injection in triphenylamine-dye sensitized TiO2 used in dye sensitized solar cells
Irfan A.,King Khalid University
Materials Chemistry and Physics | Year: 2013
Density functional theory (DFT) and time dependent DFT has been applied to shed light on the electronic properties, photophysical properties and electron injection in the photosensitizers 2-cyano-5-(4-(phenyl(4-vinylphenyl)amino) phenyl)penta-2,4-dienoic acid (TC4) and its derivatives. The ground state structures have been optimized by using DFT-B3LYP/6-31G** level of theory. The absorption spectra have been computed by using PCM-TDBHandHLYP/6-311 + G** level of theory. Generally, highest occupied molecular orbitals are delocalized on whole of the dye while lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals are localized on ligand C, conjugated chain and anchoring group. By substituting the vinyl at positions 3,3′ on A- and B-ligands leads toward red shift. The methoxy group as donor is better than the methyl which can improve the electron injection and coupling constant. The light harvesting efficiency of mono-methoxy derivative (11) would be comparable to TC4. The size effect of titanium dioxide (TiO2) (nanoparticles) has been investigated on the electronic structure of the dye. By increasing the size of TiO2 intra-molecular charge transfer from dye to nanoparticles enhanced. © 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. Source

Genetics in Medicine | Year: 2010
Consanguineous unions permit the "reunion" of ancestral chromosomal segments in a pattern referred to as "autozygosity," which is essentially a special form of homozygosity. This has long been exploited as a gene mapping tool because it is relatively easy to track a recessive mutation by the surrounding pattern of homozygous markers. The recent advent of single nucleotide polymorphism microarrays has rapidly replaced the historical use of microsatellites for this purpose. In this review, the author discusses other exciting opportunities offered by this unique arrangement of the human genome that range from pure clinical to functional genomic applications. The emerging field of whole genome sequencing promises to unlock much of the potential of the "autozygome.". © 2010 Lippincott Williams & Wilkins. Source
Modeling of efficient charge transfer materials of 4,6-di(thiophen-2-yl) pyrimidine derivatives: Quantum chemical investigations
Irfan A.,King Khalid University
Computational Materials Science | Year: 2014
The 4,6-di(thiophen-2-yl)pyrimidine has alternate pi-rich and pi-poor units. To reduce the HOMO-LUMO energy gap and improve the intra-molecular charge transfer pi-backbone has been elongated along with push-pull strategy. The ground state geometries have been optimized by using density functional theory. The frontier molecular orbitals, i.e., highest occupied molecular orbitals (HOMOs) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (LUMOs) have been conferred. The absorption spectra have been computed by using time dependent density functional theory. On the basis of ionization potentials, electron affinities and reorganization energies charge transfer properties have been discussed. We tuned the electronic, photophysical and charge transfer properties of 4,6-di(thiophen-2-yl)pyrimidine derivatives. It is expected that new designed derivatives might be better/comparable to commonly used hole transfer material (pentacene). The smaller reorganization energies revealing that the electron transfer properties of new designed derivatives might be better/comparable to commonly used electron transfer materials (tris(8-hydroxyquinolinato)aluminum). The structure-property relationship has been discussed. © 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. Source

Cochrane database of systematic reviews (Online) | Year: 2011
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and nosocomial sepsis are associated with increased morbidity and mortality in preterm infants. Through prevention of bacterial migration across the mucosa, competitive exclusion of pathogenic bacteria, and enhancing the immune responses of the host, prophylactic enteral probiotics (live microbial supplements) may play a role in reducing NEC and associated morbidity. To compare the efficacy and safety of prophylactic enteral probiotics administration versus placebo or no treatment in the prevention of severe NEC and/or sepsis in preterm infants. For this update, searches were made of MEDLINE (1966 to October 2010), EMBASE (1980 to October 2010), the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL, The Cochrane Library, Issue 2, 2010), and abstracts of annual meetings of the Society for Pediatric Research (1995 to 2010). Only randomized or quasi-randomized controlled trials that enrolled preterm infants < 37 weeks gestational age and/or < 2500 g birth weight were considered. Trials were included if they involved enteral administration of any live microbial supplement (probiotics) and measured at least one prespecified clinical outcome. Standard methods of the Cochrane Collaboration and its Neonatal Group were used to assess the methodologic quality of the trials, data collection and analysis. Sixteen eligible trials randomizing 2842 infants were included. Included trials were highly variable with regard to enrollment criteria (i.e. birth weight and gestational age), baseline risk of NEC in the control groups, timing, dose, formulation of the probiotics, and feeding regimens. Data regarding extremely low birth weight infants (ELBW) could not be extrapolated. In a meta-analysis of trial data, enteral probiotics supplementation significantly reduced the incidence of severe NEC (stage II or more) (typical RR 0.35, 95% CI 0.24 to 0.52) and mortality (typical RR 0.40, 95% CI 0.27 to 0.60). There was no evidence of significant reduction of nosocomial sepsis (typical RR 0.90, 95% CI 0.76 to 1.07). The included trials reported no systemic infection with the probiotics supplemental organism. The statistical test of heterogeneity for NEC, mortality and sepsis was insignificant. Enteral supplementation of probiotics prevents severe NEC and all cause mortality in preterm infants. Our updated review of available evidence supports a change in practice. More studies are needed to assess efficacy in ELBW infants and assess the most effective formulation and dose to be utilized. Source

Fuel | Year: 2013
Experimental studies have been carried out to investigate effects of biodiesel fuels on diesel engine performance, Carbon monoxide (CO) and nitric oxide (NOX) emissions, exhaust gas temperature (TExhaust), oil temperature (TOil), wall temperature (TWall), and cylinder pressure with/without exhaust gas recirculation (EGR). Biodiesel fuels are prepared from cotton seed oil, palm oil and flax oil. All the measured parameters for biodiesel fuels are compared with the base diesel fuel with/without EGR for different engine speeds. Fuel inlet temperature of 120 °C gives minimum viscosity different between diesel and biodiesel fuels. Biodiesel fuels give slightly less brake power (BP), brake thermal efficiency ()/Bth) and slightly high brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) and high fuel mass flow rate per cycle. Diesel fuel gives CO higher than biodiesel fuels due to less O atoms in fuel molecules. Biodiesel fuels give NOX higher than diesel fuel due to high oxygen content in biodiesel fuels molecules and cetane number (CN). As EGR increases, CO increases while NOX decreases due to decrease flame temperature and O2 in fresh air charge. For biodiesel fuels, TExhaust and TOil are higher than for diesel fuel. TWall for diesel fuel is higher than for all biodiesel fuels. Biodiesel fuels give peak cylinder pressure higher than diesel fuel. The position of peak cylinder pressure is arrangement as 11 crank angle degree (CAD) after top dead center (ATDC) for flax, 12 CAD ATDC for cotton, 14 CAD ATDC for palm and 20 CAD ATDC for diesel fuel respectively. The present work contributes in using biodiesel fuels as alternative fuel for diesel engines without major change for engines parts. For comparison between biodiesel and diesel fuels, the viscosity is not the main parameter affecting on engine performance and emissions. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. Source

African Women's Report: Measuring Gender Inequality in Africa : Experiences and Lessons from the African Gender and Development IndexBy: United Nations (creator)Paperback
1 - 2 weeks availability
DescriptionThe African Women's Report 2009 is based on the results of piloting the African Gender and Development Index (AGDI) in 12 African countries across the five subregions of the continent. Making a case for countries to invest in sex disaggregated data collection, the outcomes provide an indication of the general situation of women across the continent. The results of the AGDI trials demonstrate that countries have shown commitment to international, regional and subregional treaties affecting women through overwhelming ratification. The report confirms existing MDG status reports which indicate remarkable progress being made with respect to MDG2 on universal access to basic education. With the aid of systematic collection of sex aggregated data, the report calls for enhanced commitment towards accelerated implementation of gender equality as outlined in frameworks such as the ICPD 15, Beijing 15, the Convention of the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women and the African Women's Protocol.

Jim Furyk, considered the best golfer this side of Phil Mickelson never to win a major championship, erased the asterisk from his résumé with a steady 2-over-par 72 for an Open record-tying score of 272, eight strokes under par at Olympia Fields Country Club. He never led by less than three strokes Sunday, and that was his final margin of victory over Australian Stephen Leaney.
Even though the 7,188-yard layout didn't play as tough as a typical Open course until the second half of Saturday's round, Furyk played it the Open way — hitting fairways, making greens in regulation and sinking a few long putts for birdies.
The strategy was rewarded over the last 27 holes as the golfers who made headlines early slid away on the suddenly slick greens that finally lived up to U.S. Open treachery. Only six golfers broke par Sunday.
"It's a proud day. It's beyond some dreams," the tall, thin Pennsylvanian said.
Furyk, 33 and a veteran of 10 years on the PGA Tour, has a loop in his swing, which makes the experts marvel that he can hit the ball straight or remain consistent.
CBS analyst David Feherty has likened it to a one-armed man using a club to kill a snake in a phone booth. Others have said it looks like an octopus falling out of a tree.
"I didn't take that personally," said Furyk, whose on-course intensity fits Feherty's description. "I thought it was funny also. If you can't poke fun at yourself, it's no fun."
His trophy Sunday is a Father's Day testament to the old television motto from the Robert Young series, Father Knows Best.
Furyk's dad, Mike, who followed him around the course Sunday, has been his only primary golf coach and the one who decided not to try to remake that funky swing.
"I was fortunate my dad realized I wasn't very mechanical. He let me play by feel," Furyk said. "He's always been my teacher and always will be right now. We've gone through too many years and we speak the same language, and it has worked to this point."
Birthplace: West Chester, Pa.
Family: Wife Tabitha; daughter Caleigh Lynn.
Height: 6-2. Weight: 185.
Residence: Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla.
College: Arizona, two-time All-American.
Turned pro: 1992.
Teacher: Father, Mike Furyk.
Early form: Started putting cross-handed at age 7.
Instant fame on eBay: Sunday night, with 2 days, 20 hours left in the bidding, a 2003 U.S. Open ticket signed by Furyk and caddie Fluff Cowan (who used to work for Tiger Woods) was up to $30. Another ticket signed by Furyk only was at $28 with almost five days left in the bidding.
Career: Has finished 17th or better in season earnings each of the last seven seasons.
This season: Had recorded 10 top-10 finishes in 14 events, including seven top-fives. (He hasn't had more than 13 top-10 finishes in an entire season.) But missed cut at Wachovia Championship, May 8-9, and in his two rounds before the U.S. Open, the final rounds of the Memorial, May 31-June 1, shot 75 and 76.
Entered the U.S. Open 140th on the PGA Tour in driving distance but fifth in driving accuracy.
Previous best for season earnings: $2,540,734 in 2001.
2003 earnings: $3,402,241.
Injury report: In 2001, suffered slight cartilage tear in his right wrist when he tried to intercept a pass in the parking lot at a Baltimore Ravens-Pittsburgh Steelers game.
Viva Las Vegas: Before the U.S. Open, three of his seven career PGA Tour victories had been in the Las Vegas Invitational: 1995 (his first Tour title), '98 and '99.
Other Tour victories: 1996 United Airlines Hawaiian Open; 2000 Doral-Ryder Open; 2001 Mercedes Championships; 2002 Memorial.
Best finish in a major championship: 4th, 1997 and '98 British Open; 1998 and 2003 Masters.
U.S. Open finishes: 1994 (28th); 1996 (5th); 1997 (5th); 1998 (14th); 1999 (17th); 2000 (60th); 2001 (62nd); 2002 (missed cut). Sources: PGA Tour, USA TODAY research
An emotional Furyk said he had a hard time speaking to his father Sunday morning to wish him a happy Father's Day, and he was near tears at the presentation of the trophy.
"This is a heck of a present," he said.
Furyk has finished in the top 10 of major tournaments 11 times but never had taken a lead into the final day until Sunday.
Overcoming hurdles
Last year was an uncharacteristically poor year for him in the majors.
He missed the cut in The Masters, the U.S. Open and the British Open before finishing ninth in the PGA Championship.
He was hampered early in the year when afflicted with vertigo, causing him to miss about a month.
Furyk said he was nauseous and couldn't sit up in bed because he'd become so dizzy. He had to roll over on his stomach and slide to get out of bed.
"When I talked to my family doctor about it originally, he said, 'Don't worry about it, it'll go away in four or five days.' Everyone seemed to think they were going to end it," he said.
Finally he found a doctor in Jacksonville who put a vibrating mechanism in his ear and took his head through a range of motions. The exercises got immediate results.
"From that day on, it just got better and better and better. It took me a couple of months after that even to really start feeling good about it."
The layout and illness affected his performance in The Masters. At the U.S. Open, he said, "Bethpage ate my lunch."
He took about a month and a half off in the early summer to be with his wife, Tabitha, and newborn daughter, Caleigh (whom he carried off the 18th green Sunday), and wasn't ready for the British Open.
He showed he was back on track with a fourth-place finish in The Masters this year, and Sunday he earned his first win of the year.
The 103rd version of the national championship will be remembered for a magic moment its first day and a bevy of under-par scores early that made it look more like the B.C. Open than golf's greatest test.
With little wind, a manageable rough and soft greens, 24 golfers broke par Thursday and 38 did so Friday. The howls from the purists could be heard all the way to Far Hills, N.J., site of the U.S. Golf Association's headquarters.
Dry course bites back
After the 36-hole cut, as the wind and sun began to dry out the greens, only 15 golfers managed a below-par round Saturday. Sunday was a firmer test, and by the end of the tournament, all but four golfers had given up the red numbers.
Leaney (5 under), Kenny Perry and Masters champ Mike Weir (both 1 under) joined Furyk as the only players under par for the tournament. Tiger Woods, who ballooned to 5-over-par 75 Saturday, finished with a 72 for a total of 3-over-par 283.
"I wish I had the golf course like it was (Saturday) for the first two days," said Tom Meeks, the USGA's senior director of rules and competition.
Golfers said you couldn't blame the USGA, which followed its standard procedure of cutting the rough early in the week.
"If it was dried out the way it was (Sunday), I think you would have seen the USGA happy with the way things were," Woods said. "With the rain, it never looked like a USGA event" because the conditions were so soft.
A leaderboard with names like Leaney, Ian Leggatt, Jonathan Byrd and Eduardo Romero is hardly the stuff of classics for the casual observer. Nothing came close to the magic of the first round, when Tom Watson and terminally ill caddie Bruce Edwards touched the sports world with a 5-under-par 65 for a share of the lead.
Watson faltered over the weekend, finishing at 4-over-par 284. He and Edwards, who is battling ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease), received a warm ovation on the 18th hole Sunday as he finished a round of 2-over-par 72. They walked off the green arm-in-arm.
"It has been heartwarming," an emotional Watson said of the outpouring he and Edwards received. "I hope it translates into some action (for research funding)."
The emotion on the 18th was matched a few hours later with Furyk and his dad. During his career — and during the last four days — consistency won out over flash.
"Slow and steady at the U.S. Open always works," Furyk said.

The evidence just keeps coming: sleep plays a critical role in helping children maintain a healthy weight, and protecting them from the health risks associated with being overweight and obese.
The results of a recent study published in the Journal of American Medical Association indicate that every additional hour of sleep young children receive can reduce their risk of being overweight.
Researchers in New Zealand studied the sleep habits and weight changes of 244 children between the ages of 3-7. To investigate the relationship between sleep and weight, they measured the children's height, weight, BMI and body composition. They also tracked children's sleep, physical activity, and diet at ages 3, 4, and 5. What did they find?
- Kids who slept more between the ages of 3-5 had lower BMI at age 7 than their shorter-sleeping counterparts
This latest study joins a large and growing body of evidence that sleep has a significant impact on children's weight. Children who are sleep deprived are at greater risk for weight problems. The risk starts early, and can extend into adulthood. Recent research into the sleep-weight connection has shown:
- Babies and toddlers who slept fewer than 12 hours per night had a greater risk of being overweight by the time they reached pre-school.
Helping children develop strong sleep habits is an important investment in their long-term health -- and as this new study and others indicate, you can't start too soon. But how much sleep is enough?
Researchers in the current study reported that the children in their study slept 11 hours per night, on average. For children this young, this just isn't enough. Kids need more sleep than adults -- and not just very young children. Through adolescence, children require additional sleep. Here's a quick rundown on children's sleep needs, and tips for parents to help their children develop strong sleep habits:
New babies will sleep 11 to 18 hours day, but any new parent knows, there's no predicting exactly when this sleeping will take place!
- Stimulate your newborn with light and noise during the day, and create a quieter environment at night. This will help strengthen their developing internal clock.
Infants up to one year old need 9-12 hours of sleep per night, as well as naps during the day.
- Put your infant to bed when she's sleepy, not exhausted or already asleep. This will help strengthen your baby's self-soothing skills, and help her develop her independence at bedtime.
Children 3-5 need 11-13 hours per night. Their nighttime sleep is even more important now, since regular naps are often a thing of the past.
- Turn off the television. There's evidence that TV before bedtime disrupts children's sleep -- especially when it's violent.
Children 5-12 need 10-11 hours of sleep per night. By this time, kids are getting busy -- with school, sports, and social schedules. Their sleep is critical.
- Be consistent. Don't let busy schedules and extended playtime encroach on bedtime. Same time, same bed, every night. Keep bedrooms free of electronic media.
- Teenagers
Promoting strong sleep habits in your children is a process that starts early and really never stops. Your efforts can make all the difference in helping your child maintain a healthy weight and good overall heath over the length of their lives.

YouTube - Steve Breaston's TD return against illini
student video of the #12 play of the decade. i was probably 50 feet from this guy.
Zook: SEC is better than Big Ten
...but when you're Ron Zook -- more like WRONG Zook amirite -- it's hard to tell because they're all way better than you are.
Illinois: Beyond the Box Score Defensive Preview
must! win!
Illinois: Beyond the Box Score Offensive Preview
must. win.
Jacob Charest Departs
Illinois loses backup QB; HTTO examines the QB situation for the Illini. In a word: must-win.
Illinois 51, Michigan 44
Michigan 13-14 (6-9 Big Ten)
OK, I swear I'm going to stop trying to come up with clever titles for the last couple games unless something really hits me (maybe "Euthanasia" for the Big Ten Tournament loss). Midway through the first half of this game, it was going just as expected: Michigan was getting absolutely killed even if the scoreboard didn't show it. My ongoing sense of basketball malaise had already set in. Then, early in the second half, something funny happened: they started fighting back. It's just like this Michigan basketball team to keep me emotionally invested before ripping my heart out. Predictably, after taking a brief lead they collapsed, allowing the Illini to cruise to a comfortable win.
This game was a microcosm of the season: ultimately disappointing, but with enough hope sprinkled in to make it actually hurt so the fans can't just stay numb. Another microcosm of the season? A sequence late in the second half. Michigan nearly forces a shot-clock violation. Brandon Paul blatantly travels (uncalled, of course), before getting the ball to DJ Richardson, who hoists a 30-footer that barely beats the 35-second buzzer. Win for the defense, right? The ball ricochets directly to Mike Tisdale, and the Illini get some easy second-chance points.
This had to be one of the worst shooting performances Michigan could have put forth (and no, idiot who sits behind press row, it's not on the coaches—like they can hear your whiny bellowing anyway). They were getting open shots from three-point range and mid-range, they were getting into the lane for easy layups—this was not a failure of offensive design. However, the final shooting numbers were ugly: 24.6% from the field, 29.2 eFG%.
There was nothing the coaches could do to get the team shooting better. Can't make an outside shot? Go inside to DeShawn (3-12 on two-pointers). DeShawn's not scoring? Let Manny drive the lane (4-12 on two-pointers). The only people that had anything resembling a spark for Michigan were Zack Novak and Zack Gibson. Gibby shot 50% (1/4 from three-point land) and Novak made four threes.
As the season winds down, and it's clear that nothing's going to change with this team, I start begging for a painless release. They've lost confidence, and rightfully so, and probably the only thing that's going to restore it at this point is to move on from the 2009-10 season.
- Layups. Dude, layups. Michigan missed 15 of them. Nothing was working. If the Wolverines make half of those, this game is easily won.
- As much as it was a horrible performance by the team at large in shooting the ball, DeShawn Sims probably had the worst performance in comparison to expectations. He's been beyond solid all year long, and Michigan needed him today, but he couldn't come through. Fortunately, he still managed to put in some solid work on the glass.
- That said, somebody, anybody other than DeShawn Sims has to be able to put the ball in the hoop.
- A few steps forward over the year for Darius Morris, but this was a step back. 3 assists, 2 turnovers, 1-7 shooting. However, he was relied on to shoot much more than usual this game, and once he can get a consistent stroke and form, he should be a real weapon.
- For all those who were outraged at Stu Douglass for not going after an offensive rebound against Penn State, you got what was coming to you last night. He went after a loose ball, and it led to an easy Illinois dunk on the fast break.
- Is it next year yet?

Threats to Defenders of Democracy in Balochistan
Threats to Defenders of Democracy in Balochistan
Malik Siraj Akbar, Reagan-Fascell Democracy Fellow
with comments by
Brian Joseph, National Endowment for Democracy
Wednesday, May 2, 2012
12 noon–2:00 p.m.
(Lunch served from 12:00 to 12:30 p.m.)
1025 F Street, N.W., Suite 800, Washington, D.C. 20004
Telephone: 202-378-9675
RSVP (acceptances only) with name and affiliation by Monday, April 30
About the Event
The February 2012 hearing on Balochistan at the U.S House of Representatives brought rare public attention to a longstanding conflict in Pakistan's mineral-rich southwestern province. While high-level discourse has focused on issues of national sovereignty, security, and secession, the gross violations of human rights in the region have received little international coverage, due in part to government censorship and the threats faced by journalists. Since its accession to Pakistan in 1948, Balochistan has been the scene of periodic uprisings that have resulted in the extrajudicial killing, torture, and enforced disappearance of countless civilians, professionals, and political leaders. Despite judicial and parliamentary initiatives on the part of Pakistan's civilian government, the conflict remains unresolved.
In his presentation, award-winning journalist Malik Siraj Akbar will offer insights into the origins of the human rights crisis in Balochistan, and an account of the threats faced by defenders of democracy in the region, as well as preliminary recommendations for how best to move forward. Brian Joseph will provide comments.
About the Speakers
Malik Siraj Akbar is a Pakistani journalist who has risked his life covering enforced disappearances, extrajudicial killings, assaults on journalists, and other human rights violations, particularly in his native Balochistan. The founding editor of the Baloch Hal, Pakistan's first online local newspaper, he previously served as the Balochistan bureau chief of the Daily Times, Pakistan's leading English-language newspaper (2006–2010). A recognized regional expert, he is the author of The Redefined Dimensions of the Baloch Nationalist Movement (2011), as well as numerous articles on press freedom, human rights, religious radicalism, and the war on terror in Pakistan.
Brian Joseph is the senior director for Asia and multi-regional programs at the National Endowment for Democracy.

Experience it interactively: http://tribalddb.hu/works/amnesty/index.html
A well-known tagline of Amnesty International was used, and an interactive function was added to dramatize what AI stands for. The idea of this intro-teaser is to look like a video, and to surprise the user to interact with it. Users expecting a video got something more.

The latest business and finance news from around the world from the BBC
February 29th, 2016
Episode 655 of 961 episodes
India's government has pledged $9bn to help the agricultural sector. The BBC's Yogita Limaye brings us reaction from business leaders to finance minister Arun Jaitley's budget. Also in the programme, as Ireland's political leaders scramble to form a new government, we ask whether austerity policies could take a back seat. Starbucks is to open its first outlet in Italy, the birthplace of the espresso. So how welcoming will Italians be to the mega coffee chain? Cristina Caroli, who owns a coffee bar in Bologna and represents the Speciality Coffee Association of Europe, gives us her view. And our regular contributor Lucy Kellaway of the Financial Times tells us about her corporate spat with Hewlett Packard, and why she welcomed it.

Portland. A city full of coffee-loving, organic-chewing, bike-riding, Mac-using, liberals. A bubble so to say. A bubble in which many of us are very happy to find ourselves. But that doesn't mean you can't poke fun at the bubble.
Enter Portlandia, a new series soon to premiere on IFC. One of the early released videos to promote the show has already made its rounds of Portlandites, but watching it never gets old. With good one liners like "all the girls wear glasses" and "in Portland, you can put a bird on something and call it art" this video is hard not to love.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
Origins Available: English, Scottish
England following the Norman Conquest of 1066, they brought their name with them. It is a name for a blacksmith or a person who tended horses deriving its origin from the Old English word marshal, which meant blacksmith. In medieval England, blacksmiths were extremely important because they were employed by the nobility to look after the horses.
Marshal Early Origins
Wiltshire, where they established themselves after the Norman Conquest.
Marshal Spelling Variations
Marshal Spelling Variations
Endless spelling variations are a prevailing characteristic of Norman surnames. Old and Middle English lacked any definite spelling rules, and the introduction of Norman French added an unfamiliar ingredient to the English linguistic stew. French and Latin, the languages of the court, also influenced spellings. Finally, Medieval scribes generally spelled words according to how they sounded, so one person was often referred to by different spellings in different documents. The name has been spelled Marshall, Marshal, Marescal, Marshale and others.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
To escape the political and religious persecution within England at the time, many English families left for the various British colonies abroad. The voyage was extremely difficult, though, and the cramped, dank ships caused many to arrive in the New World diseased and starving. But for those who made it, the trip was most often worth it. Many of the families who arrived went on to make valuable contributions to the emerging nations of Canada and the United States. An inquiry into the early roots of North American families reveals a number of immigrants bearing the name Marshal or a variant listed above:

Actor Michelle Williams has revealed that she saves time from her hectic schedule by eating breakfast in a shower.
"I like to save time by eating breakfast in the shower. It all started with a cup of coffee," Contactmusic quoted her as saying. "And then before I knew it, I was in there with a smoothie," said the actor, who claims her bizarre habit has an added benefit. "I don't get cold anymore in the shower while I drink the smoothie."

University of Massachusetts researchers report that fitness applications such as Daily Burn, Livestrong, FitBit and Weight Watchers offer some good weight-loss strategies, including keeping a food diary, but they may not help people make permanent lifestyle changes. The study in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine compared 30 apps with 20 behavioral strategies and found 28 of the apps included 25% or less of the lifestyle recommendations that help people stick to weight-loss plans.

Apple Will Leave No IPad Behind
Read More.
Don't knock Apple for offering up a bunch of new products -- an iPhone, iPad and Apple TV -- that look a lot like its old ones or copy the competition. What the company is doing might be smarter than meets the eye.
The new iPhone 6s has just one truly novel feature -- so-called 3D Touch, a screen that reacts differently to pressure of varying force, like the one in the Apple Watch. It's of questionable value: People only use a few of the most intuitive gestures on their phones -- the swipe, the scroll, the tap and the pinch. Others are hard to remember, and interface designers advise developers against "over-gesturizing."
The 6s's improved camera offers picture quality similar to that in all top-line mobile phones. It's fine for social network use or anything else an amateur photographer might have in mind, but no mobile phone camera will ever satisfy a pro. Stressing camera improvements means you're almost out of ideas: That's what Nokia did just before selling its mobile handset business to Microsoft.
The 6s generation probably won't be as successful as the previous one, which broke a Steve Jobs dogma by offering a larger screen. Dawn Chmielewski at Re/code has suggested a neat way of measuring its relative performance: If the new model achieves 70 percent of all iPhone sales in its launch quarter, it's doing fine. The 5s failed that test, and the bar is high for the 6s: In the three months through June, Apple sold 47.5 million iPhones, more than it ever had in the third quarter after a launch.
The smartphone market has matured. The rapid growth of recent years can't continue forever. It was, to a large extent, fueled by geographical expansion: In the three months through June, Apple sales in greater China more than doubled, to $13.2 billion, compared with the year before. Now the Chinese economy is slowing, and budget manufacturer Xiaomi has recaptured leadership. Only India could give Apple's sales the kind of boost China provided. It's not ready for Apple prices yet, though.
Apple is not a miracle factory. It's an extremely well-managed business. The iPhone accounted for 63.2 percent of its sales in the last quarter. Chief executive Tim Cook knows this makes Apple vulnerable, and nobody has yet figured out what a new quantum leap in smartphones might look like. Apple doesn't have a potential new flagship, either. So the only way to maintain solid growth is to strengthen the products that have been lagging. That's exactly what Apple is doing with the iPad and the Apple TV set-top box.
Apple is now experiencing the slowest tablet sales since it launched the iPad in 2011. The entire market is shrinking along with Apple's market share, as no-name manufacturers encroach and people see little point in upgrading. So the company is attempting to differentiate itself, especially in the corporate market. The new iPad Pro is a shameless attempt to imitate a form factor perfected at great expense by Microsoft -- the tablet-laptop hybrid. As soon as Microsoft's Surface Pro line started getting good reviews and selling well, Apple pounced (a move I predicted a year ago). Apple's version has a large screen, a detachable keyboard, a stylus (anathema to Jobs) and a desktop-grade processor. The main difference is that the iPad doesn't run Apple's desktop operating system, Mac OS -- such a switch would be a blow to developers now making good money selling applications for iOS, the operating system for iPads and iPhones.
It's good that Apple isn't afraid of copying. I never bought the Surface Pro, despite my admiration for it, because being forced to use Windows at work was enough of an aggravation. I'm seriously considering getting the iPad Pro as a laptop replacement. The stylus would allow me to take shorthand notes the way I'm used to. Though the device is expensive, starting at $799 without the keyboard and the $99 stylus, it's competitive with the Surface Pro.
Apple TV has always been something of a stepchild at Apple. Jobs once said that the first iteration of the device was "not what people wanted." It did, however, generate about $1 billion of revenue for Apple every year, even though it was inferior to similar devices from Amazon, Roku and Google. The new Apple TV catches up to the competition in functionality, introducing voice search, among other features. It's not a groundbreaking device by any means, but it eliminates the need for Apple users to go outside the ecosystem. They'll pay to stay in their comfort zone.
It's no use waiting for Apple to make a mistake. This is a company that knows its markets, keeps track of all the competing products and works diligently to at least stay even with them. Given the huge number of people who already own its products, it's bound to continue reaping the advantages of its closed ecosystem. Apple's latest product launch was a powerful demonstration of its powers as an ordinary company.

Descartes God
Ideas I have noted before, even though the objects of my sensory experience and imagination may have no existence outside of me, nonetheless the modes of thinking which I refer to as cases of sensory perception and imagination, insofar as they are simply modes of thinking, do exist within me – of that I am certain [AT VII, 35].
Different Types of Ideas 1.Innate 2.Adventitious 3.Inventions Among my ideas, some appear to be innate, some to be adventitious, and others to have been invented by me [AT VII, 37-8].
External Things All these considerations are enough to establish that it is not reliable judgement but merely some blind impulse that has made me believe up till now that there exist things distinct from myself which transmit to me ideas or images of themselves through the sense organs or in some other way [AT VII, 39].
Identity of Ideas But it now occurs to me that there is another way of investigating whether some of the things of which I possess ideas exist outside of me. In so far as the ideas are simply modes of thought, there is no recognisable inequality among them: they all appear to come from within me in the same fashion [AT VII, 40].
Degrees of Reality 1.Objective Reality 2.Formal Reality 3.Eminent Reality
Objective Reality The objective reality of the idea of the triangle, for example is the idea of the triangle insofar as it represents the triangle as a thing. The objective reality is not the thing represented, but the representation. Tree
Formal Reality The formal reality of the idea describes the status of the idea itself. Whatever idea we speak of and whatever this idea might represent, the idea itself exists. Again if we go back to our picture example, being mindful that ideas are not pictures for Descartes, so that this is only an analogy, then we can make a distinction between the picture, on the one hand, and what the picture represents on the other. Now the picture, on this analogy, is the formal idea. That is to say idea of the tree itself, and not the tree that is represented in the idea
Eminent Reality For Descartes ideas themselves and not just what they represent in the idea, have degrees of reality. Reality meaning perfection. It is possible to say that some ideas, formally speaking are more perfect than other's. The idea of frog is less perfect than the idea of God. The idea of God does not just have more formal reality than the idea of frog; rather it has more formal reality than other reality. The idea of God, therefore, for Descartes, has eminent reality.
Formal/Objective Reality The degree of reality of formal reality corresponds to the degree of reality of objective reality
Formal/Objective Reality In order for a given idea to contain such and such objective reality, it must surely derive it from some cause which contains at least as much formal reality as there is objective reality in the idea [AT VII 41].
Formal/Eminent If the objective reality of any of my ideas turns out to be so great that I am sure the same reality does not reside in me, either formally or eminently, and hence that I myself cannot be its cause, it will necessarily follow that I am not alone in the world, but that some other thing which is the cause of this idea also exists [AT VII, 42].
God By the word 'God' I understand a substance that is infinite, eternal, immutable, independent, supremely intelligent, supremely powerful and which created both myself and everything else…that exists. All these attributes are such that, the more carefully I concentrate on them, the less possible it seems that they could have originated from me alone. So from what has been said it must be concluded that God necessarily exists [AT VII, 45].
Existence From whom, in that case, would I derive my existence? From myself presumably, or from my parents, of from some other beings less perfect than God; for nothing more perfect than God, or even as perfect can be thought of or imagined. Yet if I derive my existence from myself, then I should neither doubt nor want, nor lack anything at all [AT VII, 48].
Principle of Conservation For it is quite clear to anyone who attentively considers the nature of time that the same power and action are needed to preserve anything at each individual moment of its duration as would be required to create that thing anew in it were not yet in existence. Hence the distinction between preservation and creation is only a conceptual one [AT VII, 49]
Conclusion I recognise that it would be impossible for me to exist with the kind of nature I have – that is, having within me the idea of God – were it not the case that God really existed [AT VII].
