First measurements of the differential positronium-formation cross-sections
Positrons are the antimatter version of electrons and so their fate in a matter world is ultimately to annihilate. However, prior to this, a positron may combine with an electron to form a matter-antimatter hybrid called positronium. This is akin to a hydrogen atom with the proton replaced by a positron. Fundamental to our understanding of the physical universe, positron and positronium are these days also acknowledged as being fantastically useful in practical applications such as probing material properties and medical diagnostics. However, there is still much that we do not know for sure about the details of the interactions of these particles with ordinary matter. For example if, in a collision with an atom or molecule, a positron captures an electron, in which directions is the positronium likely to travel and with what probability? More...

New calculations to improve carbon dioxide monitoring from space
How light of different colours is absorbed by carbon dioxide (CO2) can now be accurately predicted using new calculations developed by a UCL-led team of scientists. This will help climate scientists studying Earth's greenhouse gas emissions to better interpret data collected from satellites and ground stations measuring CO2. More...

On quantum scales, there are many second laws of thermodynamics
New research from UCL has uncovered additional second laws of thermodynamics which complement the ordinary second law of thermodynamics, one of the most fundamental laws of nature. These new second laws are generally not noticeable except on very small scales, at which point, they become increasingly important. More...

Current Research
Our research research is in quantum cavity optomechanics and applications of cold atoms. For further information please contact Peter Barker.
Cavity optomechanics with optically trapped particles
The field of optomechanics, in particular the cooling of small mechanical oscillators, is currently one of the most exciting and rapidly growing areas of physics. An important question is whether one can not only reach, but also operate these devices in the quantum regime. In addition to the fundamental interest, there are promising possibilities for highly sensitive measurements of weak forces at the quantum limit (in other words with a displacement limited only by the width of the ground state of the mechanical oscillator). It will also have applications for generating entanglement between the light field and the mechanical modes. We are currently exploring cavity cooling of charged nanoscale polarisable particles in a hybrid trap which consists of optical trap formed by an optical cavity and a Paul trap. Such particles (in the 100 nm size range) interact strongly with a cavity field and also the Paul trap electric fields, allowing both trapping and cooling. Since in these cooling schemes no internal resonance is involved, no detailed knowledge of the internal structure of the particle is required. Significantly, unlike usual cavity optomechanics schemes, where the object is physically connected to the environment, the nanoparticle to be cooled is held in a conservative potential so is well isolated from the environment. This confers unique advantages, over conventional optomechanical schemes, in relation to the ultimate objective of cooling to the ground state. We have recently cooled these particles to mK temperatures and further cooling to the ground state is feasible with a higher finesse cavity operated at pressures below 10e-7 mBar. A research blog on this topic can be found here.
We collaborate with T. Monteiro, S. Bose and A. Serafini at UCL and Gavin Morley at Warwick.
Weak measurements of momentum in atom interferometry
There is currently considerable interest in the use of weak measurements, first introduced by Aharonov, Albert and Vaidman, to explore fundamental quantum processes and for quantum metrology. Of particular impact has been the experiment of Kocsis et al. that employed weak measurements of photon momentum followed by a strong measurement of position to reconstruct average trajectories of photons. Here, the polarization of the photon was used as a pointer that weakly coupled to the transverse photon momentum. To date this type of experiment has only been performed on photons, of which a classical wave optics interpretation can be also applied. We are developing a two-slit, matter-wave interferometer that uses cold argon atoms to perform weak measurements of momentum. Here, the pointer that weakly couples to momentum is the spin of the 5 Zeeman states of the laser cooled metastable (4S[3/2]2) argon atoms which are dropped through two slits formed within a metallic film. This experiment will also allow the reconstruction of average trajectories of the atoms within the interferometer, but unlike the interference of photons, this effect can only be described by a quantum analysis
Optomechanics with whispering gallery mode resonators
Optomechanical devices on the nano- and microscale are important tools, both for exploring fundamental quantum physics, and for technological applications. These systems, in which mechanical motion is controlled by light, can be used as exquisitely sensitive force, position or mass sensors. Several optomechanical devices have been cooled to their motional quantum ground state, opening the way to quantum limited sensing, quantum transduction, and the exploration of the limits of quantum physics.
An important class of optomechanical systems exploit high optical quality factor whispering gallery mode (WGM) resonances in objects such as dielectric spheres or toroids. High-Q WGM resonators have been used for microwave-to-optical conversion, optical storage, frequency comb creation, and single-molecule sensing in both air and liquids. Cooling the resonator enhances many of the aforementioned applications. The interaction between the optical WGM and internal mechanical modes of the resonator leads to strong optomechanical coupling, allowing sideband-resolved cooling of radial breathing modes of a toroid when light is red-detuned from a resonance. Feedback cooling is possible, using the sensitive transduction of the distance between the WGM resonator and an object within its evanescent field. Using this type of transduction, cooling of the center-of-mass (c.o.m.) motion of a nanobeam using radiation pressure has been demonstrated, as well as passive cooling of the flapping motion between two stacked microdisks using the dipole force.
WGM resonances also offer the ability to cool and manipulate the external c.o.m. motion of the cavity that supports them. Cooling the c.o.m. of massive objects opens the way to exploring quantum physics at large mass scales. A mechanism similar to the Doppler cooling of atoms, which utilizes narrow WGM resonances, has been proposed. Recently, the mechanism for transducing the c.o.m. motion of a silica microsphere-cavity on the end of a silica pendulum (analogous to our system) has been observed and studied using light coupled into a WGM from a tapered optical fiber.
We use the WGM of a microsphere-cantilever to transduce and feedback-cool its c.o.m. motion, extending optomechanical cooling into the microgram regime, and offering the potential for high-resolution sensing. Light is coupled into the WGM via a tapered optical fiber, and its motion is also feedback-cooled via the same transduction, demonstrating the cooling of coupled-oscillators. The strong optical dipole force between the microsphere and the taper allows us to cool the lighter (effective mode mass micro-g) taper, while a piezoelectric stack (PZT) attached to the microsphere-cantilever allows us to damp its motion (effective mode mass 20 micro-g).

The 2010 Undergraduate Research Competition announced three prize winners for the best undergraduate research presentations judged on Feb 18, 2010 during the Ninth Celebration of Inquiry. Katrina Smith and Patrick Hutchins, both marine science majors, tied for first place with an award of $500 each and Mary Purvis, an accounting major, earned third place, for an award of $100. (Only 3 awards are given, thereby eliminating second place due to the tie in first place.)
Smith's presentation was entitled "Preferential Fish Consumption Based Omega-3 Fatty Acids and Mercury Concentrations". Hutchins's presentation was " Mutualistic Interactions between Coral Symbiotic Algae and Coral Native Bacteria". Purvis's presentation was entitled " The Effect of Natural Weather Phenomenon on Homeowners Insurance in SC Coastal Counties."
Forty-four student presentations were judges by faculty members who rated the research presentations on originality, methodology, evidence of the research, its importance, and the presentations' clarity and organization. "Undergraduate research provides excellent opportunities for Coastal students to exercise critical thinking skills while collaborating with their peers and faculty mentors," stated Charmaine Tomczyk, Director for Undergraduate Research and Director of the Celebration on Inquiry Conference. Tomczyk adds, "Disseminating their research results to others through presentation enhances the value of their efforts and hones their presentation skills, too."

Off the train this morning at seven-thirty and just a word with my little cousin before she started off to school, as she was breakfasting in my sitting room.
The usual first interviews with everybody and the settling of various domestic questions which always arise when you are away for a short time, and then I dashed down to see the new furniture in the formal Blue Room on the first floor. We have had so much discussion as to just how this furniture should be recovered that I was very anxious to see it. I am very glad that it has turned out to be so dignified and really very lovely. Now that I have seen it I am deeply grateful to Eric Gugler and the Fine Arts Committee who have advised us, so patiently. I hope that many people will like it and the new hangings in the East Room as well.
My husband seemed very cheerful and while they are still discussing what shall happen to his tooth, they have found that there is no infection in the bone and I imagine that with care it will gradually heal.
At eleven o'clock my first press conference which inaugurates the regular weekly contacts with the press, was attended by a Japanese woman, Mrs. Waka Yamada who had asked to come. She is a well known writer and told us through an interpreter, that for twenty-five years she has headed the Mothers League of Japan fighting for better care for mothers and children. She told us that at the last session of the Diet they had passed a law granting aid to mothers of children up to thirteen years and that now she was over here to explain that the mothers of Japan had no feeling but that of friendship for the mothers of China, and that they wished to end the conflict between the two nations as soon as possible. I imagine that many a Chinese woman could be found to echo these same sentiments.
We had a particularly large representation this morning at the press conference, and one representative told me as she went out that she represented an Hawaiian paper; another was a correspondent from England, particularly interested in youth movements. She had apparently suffered from shyness and had not asked me her questions in open conference! I told her, however, that I hoped the development of youth hostels and less expensive travel in foreign countries, was making it possible for many of our young people to know young people of other countries. On the whole it seems to me history is being taught more realistically today without quite so much nationalistic color. As a result I feel that the youth of today is far more interested in peace and the methods by which we can improve our international understanding. They will be more intelligent workers in the cause of peace than my generation was at the same age.

Report card feedback in the mailbag this week, which is pretty much code for a little J.D. Drew bashing. The people have found their scapegoat, and he's not going to be able to use a sore groin as an excuse to get out of this spot.
Also, I take some grief for suggesting that Paul Pierce is merely a Hall of Famer and not his generation's Larry Bird (guess I missed the three MVPs), try to care about Brett Favre, take my usual shots at ESPN and celebrate the finest half hour of each work day. And yes, the Clown Shoes make the most anticipated comeback since, well, Brett Favre.
To the 'bag we go (and, as always, feel free to email away to firstname.lastname@example.com)
A D+ for J.D. Drew? Come on, have you watched the Red Sox once this season? The guy has been terrible and is freaking soft. He's the highest paid player on the team and he has done nothing. Worst move of the Theo Era. You have to flunk him. A D+ is way too easy.
New London
A: I agree that Drew has been a complete flop in Boston. No question. Jimmy Fallon as a Movie Star flop. But two things, I think, really make Drew a target.
(1) Unlike Ortiz and Varitek (the other obvious scapegoat candidates), Drew isn't viewed as one of "us". He's what Rose Dewitt's mother would call "new Red Sox". Sure, he's won a World Series and has a huge grand slam to his credit, but the 2004 guys are just looked at differently. And that's understandable.
(And yes, it hurt to make my first ever Titanic reference on WEEI.com and not have it involve the great Billy Zane. It frankly makes me melancholy, and I don't pretend to know why.)
(2) As a fan, it's always perversely gratifying to first guess a GM and be dead right about it. And that is what happened here. Theo told us about OBP and 162-game projections, but we knew J.D. Drew wouldn't work in Boston. Just knew it.
Two criticisms of your report card from 8/17.
1. J.D. Drew is making 14-million dollars a year and has been awful. Should have got an F. I'd rather see Josh Reddick out there every day. At least he actually wants to play.
2. I would have given Penny a B or B minus, if only because he's taken the ball every fifth day. That's been key with Dice-K and Wakefield out.
A: We've all been looking for a role for Varitek, right? He can't play more than once or twice a week, so how about this? Let's have him give Drew a makeover, give him the full captain treatment. I want the almost beard. I want Drew sprinting back to the dugout every time he strikes out. Maybe a steely look every once in a while. This way, if Drew hits .220 it's not really a problem, because he will be loaded with intangibles that non-players like you and me could never, ever understand.
Penny? Well, I just don't think a 5.22 ERA is worthy of a B or B-. True, he has pitched every fifth day, but I don't think it would be hard to replace those innings. I think he's been closer to a "D" than a "B".
Hey Kirk,
Sorry you got Yanged, but I didn't need to read another kiss-ass Tiger Woods story. Go work with the rest of the Tiger suck-ups at CBS if that's what you want to do. Who goes to WEEI for golf news anyway?
PS—I'm with you on Dennis Johnson. Hope he gets in next year.
A: Well, guess you won't enjoy the Brad Faxon mailbag, Mike.
I agree for the most part with your grades. At this point, I'm not sure if I want the Sox to stagger in to the playoffs only to be soundly defeated by the Angels, or worse yet, the NYY. Regardless of what happens, this upcoming offseason might be Theo's most challenging yet since he donned the gorilla suit. Lots of age problems (Ortiz, Varitek, Wakefield), to sign or not to sign Bay and for how much, shortstop, etc, etc.
Just as an aside, I happened to be watching the MLB Network during the All Star break, and a 3 man panel of ex GM John Hart, Mitch Williams, and I believe Joe Magraine all predicted a World Series title by the Red Sox. How quickly things have changed in just one short month.
A: I'm not sure I agree with you on Theo, Bob. I actually think this is going to be a pretty light offseason. The only real question is whether or not they sign Bay. Ortiz is under contract for 2010 and Varitek has a player option. He'll be back, I'm sure. All the young guys are under contract. The rotation is pretty much set (Beckett/Lester/Dice-K/Wakefield/Buchholz). Maybe Theo makes his annual Wade Miller/ Paul Byrd/John Smoltz "rebound pitcher on the cheap" move, but I can't imagine anything else of consequence.
We've seen enough of Jason Bay to make a decision, I think. Would you give him five years, 75 million? It's close, but I think I would. He's only 30 years old, so this isn't one of those contracts where you are basically admitting that the final year will probably be a washout. I think he'll give you .280-30-110 and not make a sound for the next half decade.
Dear Minihane,
Now that you seem comfortably entrenched as the mailbag guy I figured now would be a good time to take issue with some things you wrote a couple of months ago.
Throughout the course of your writing on WEEI.com, it has become ever-so apparent that you loathe Paul Pierce as a player.
It's OK though. You're just like 90 percent of all Celtics followers (whether they want to admit it or not), still obsessed with the 1980s and Larry Bird. Look, we all know the greatness of Bird. He is right there with Russell in the greatest Celtic of all-time argument.
But basically every Celtics fan over the age of 30 STILL looks at Paul Pierce and says to themselves, "That's not our guy."
Maybe it's an "Everything was better in the '80s," thing or maybe it's an "aesthetics" thing (the way they play, not looks ... after all, they both score a -3.5 on the every popular Dan Majerle good looks scale<http://www.geocities.com/thunderdanonline/dantina.jpg>), maybe it's even a "racial" thing for some (as I channel my inner Jimmy Meyers).
All I know is that for whatever reason, Paul Pierce is still not thought of as a transcendent Boston athlete.
The numbers are there. I would submit he is, in terms of length with the team, and amount of years as an elite scorer in the NBA, a Top 5 Celtic of all-time. He is going to the Hall of Fame. He has won a championship in Boston (in the 2007-08 playoff run he was, without question, the best player on the team). He might very well be, as Heinsohn and Bob Ryan have said, the best scoring Celtic in history (which you continually dismiss).
I believe the debate is still open for discussion. Bird was the better rebounder and was the best passer I have ever seen (aesthetics argument). Bird is a better outside shooter (aesthetics factors in here too, as Pierce has that little hitch in his shot).
But plain scoring? Getting to the rim and willing the ball into the basket? Give me Pierce. Getting to the tin has always been the better way. To quote Ron Burgundy, "It's science."
You are also such a Bird slurp that you go so far as to say that he should still be in the Michael Jordan argument as "greatest ever." I submit this and only this: Would Larry Bird have won one title with BJ Armstrong at the point instead of DJ and Luc "friggin" Longley in place of Parish?
You might want to stick to writing about Jussi Jokinen.
Matt B
A: You know, every few weeks I'll get an email calling me out on hating Pierce. I don't get it. This is a guy I've (a) advocated for the Hall of Fame (http://www.weei.com/sports/boston/celtics/kirk-minihane/where-does-truth-stand) and (b) called one of the ten best Celtics in franchise history. That's pretty high cotton; I'm not talking about the Sacramento Kings or New Jersey Nets here. High praise for a guy that's never received a single first, second or third-place MVP vote in his career.
Paul Pierce is still not thought of as a transcendent Boston athlete? Well, there's a pretty simple reason for that. Paul Pierce is not a transcendent Boston athlete. Come on, Matt. You've watched Pierce for 11 years now. Are you really comfortable putting him next to Williams, Russell, Orr, Bird and Brady? He's somewhere on Level 3 with Neely, Rice, Seymour and Parish (Some Level 2 guys? Bourque, Yaz, Cousy.)
This speaks to something else, I think. The under-30 crew has grown tired of hearing their older brothers bond with their fathers over the Celtics of the 1980s. And the enduring symbol of those years, of course, is Larry Bird. So the youngsters have tried to convince themselves that they have a guy that is their Bird. And that's fine, I guess. But let's look at the two players. Who's the better shooter, passer and rebounder? And by how wide a margin? Yup, Paul Pierce gets to the basket better than Larry Bird ever did. And that's the only edge I'll give him. Actually, if we are counting the ability to openly weep in pain on the court then we'll give The Truth another check mark. Imagine if Pierce had hit his head on the court like Larry did in 1991 vs. the Pacers? Ed Lacerte might have had to put him down to end the suffering.
Pierce is a really good player, great at times (I'll stand by what I've written before – his 24 minutes in the second half of the Game 4 comeback vs. the Lakers was the best half of basketball I've ever seen played by a Celtic.) But Larry Bird is a top 10 (at worst) all-time player.
And yes, I think a team with Larry Bird, Scottie Pippen and Horace Grant would've won at least one title. Why not? You think those Knicks teams would have beaten them year-in, year-out? Did I miss the poems and books written about the 1996 Sonics? Okay, fine, Michael Jordan was a better player than Larry Bird. I'll buy that. But Larry Bird is a hell of a lot closer to Michael Jordan than Paul Pierce is to Larry Bird.
Just looking through your old blog entries, and a couple of comments.
I figured Pierce and Dirk were borderline Hall-of-Famers, with Pierce out and Dirk in. Now, shouldn't we factor in that Pierce is one of the top 5 Celtics all time? I'd put him #4, but then the same argument works against him, McHale is one of the top PF of all time.
A: I like the idea of someone combing through my archives. Makes me feel like Ernest Shackelton or something. Again, stop forcing it with Pierce, guys. Top five Celtic? Who are you taking off the list?
Take "top 10 Celtic and Hall of Famer" and run, Pierce Nation. That's my best offer.
Is there a more tired story in sports today than Brett Favre and his endless flip-flopping journey through retirement, wait I mean un-retirement? Seriously, I understand the business decision of signing him to a 2 year deal for salary cap reasons, but can we please just call a spade a spade and acknowledge there is no way he is going to start for one complete season needless to say two?
Tell me this: if Brett Favre retires in a forest and there's no one there to hear it, does he actually retire? Please, enlighten me with a final word on this story so it can die a peaceful death.
A: I'll be honest: I looked at this question for a half hour before I could muster the energy to write something down. This whole Favre story has worn me out. I'm done with it. Really, unless you are a Packers or Vikings fan how much should you really care? As long as I'm not the one that has to clean up the dump that Favre has taken on his legacy then I'm okay with the whole thing. He's a grown man, this is America, the whole bit. Clearly Favre cares more about 12 million bucks and the chance to screw the Packers than he does about Green Bay fans. That's a perfectly legitimate stance. Sure, he's been exposed as a complete fraud, but this was true before he jumped to Minnesota. But do we really care? All this really means is that instead of five years from now it'll be 15 years until they have Brett Favre Day at Lambeau Field. And on that day he'll break down and apologize and the fans, as they always do, will forgive him. So I'm not going to get all worked up over it. I'll leave that to ESPN, who continue to treat this story like it happening in 1996 and Favre is the best quarterback in football, when in reality it is 2009 and Favre is maybe the 15th best quarterback in football. God, I hate what has happened to ESPN.
Clown Shoes,
Hawk Harrelson called Brian Anderson the closest thing the White Sox had to a 5 tool player. Wow! Well Hawk, I think your tool kit sucks.
Brian "the watcher" Anderson. The 1 tool I have identified on this guy so far is that he has good eyes. I saw him watch 3 straight pitches to his first K, then watch a catchable ball into a hit and then into a triple. Watching Jacoby Ellsbury run into right field behind him to field a ball that should have been caught is TP to the back ass of your pants embarrassing. Most players would be looking for a chance to redeem themselves perhaps becoming too aggressive in the process. Good thing, B.A. isn't hung up on those types of things because after mixing in a flailing half ass swing at a breaking ball, he took a good long look at strike 3 on the outside corner of the plate. Brian if you are just going to watch, those $225 dollar seats Ben and J-Lo used to sit in are open and they even have little TVs in them!
Obviously inspired, Victor Martinez successfully watched a double right into a single as he emulated former cleveland steamer Manny Ramirez.
That was aggravating, but nothing we haven't all seen before from any number of MLB sluggers. The Sunday broadcast however starts with Don Orsillo referencing the warning track shot as though V-mart was robbed of a home run saying, "Martinez understandably went into his home run trot and still can't figure out how that ball stayed in the park when off the bat it was a surefire home run."
That line, infuriating. First a home run is not a judgment call. Second, you say understandably, I say unforgivably. Victor, you just cost your team a man in scoring position at a time when runs are as scarce as they have been all season. Tell you what Vic, this ain't Cleveland. If it is indeed a home run, you can watch it on Sportsdesk, Extra Innings, Sports Final, Sportscenter and at least 2 segments of Baseball Tonight. In the case your eyes deceived you, then why not pedal your Johnny come lately ass to second. Brian Anderson could see that it wasn't leaving the yard, but don't get discouraged Vic that kind of visual prowess only comes with innings upon innings of standing around watching the baseball.
And lastly, there is a bunch of fuss about J.D. Drew asking out of a game the other day. If this guy isn't embarrassed to be on a field with guys like Lowell, Lester, Youkilis and Beckett based on toughness alone then why should it be offensive when he asks out of a game with a tweaked ear lobe or whatever it is this week. I accept that JD is a gelding. $17 million a year paid for the player, balls were an additional fee. Where's Tonya Harding when you need her to demonstrate to Jonathan Davis what a tweaked knee actually feels like.
Jake Scott
A: Jake, I'm not comfortable with you suggesting that J-Lo somehow left her Pink Hat behind when she and Ben called it quits. Clearly you didn't read her 15,000-word study on the post-Nomar shortstop era in Boston, titled "When The VORP Went South." Ran last week in Baseball Prospectus and was nicely received.
The Orsillo comment made me think of something semi-related. Exactly when did it become okay for announcers to refer to players by their nicknames? Happens all the time now, but I don't think it was even commonplace five years ago, much less 20. I think it's just a way for these local homers (and I don't think Orsillo falls in this category, by the way) to make themselves seem like they are "tight" with the players, which of course is exactly the last thing you would want in an ideal world as a viewer. But in the Stuart Scott/TMZ world where the follower wants to be as famous as the subject things get blurry. I don't know, I guess my point is once again that I hate what has happened to ESPN. Even the SportsCenter anchors have nicknames now. A long way from Tom Mees.
Thought you'd like this. I was in the bathroom at work yesterday and saw that your column on Rice vs. Evans was printed out and lying on the floor. And yes, I picked it up and read it (had nothing else and made sure to double was my hands after). And I even printed out your mailbag and brought it in with me the next day.
A: Words escape me.
To be in someone's work dump reading rotation is the highest praise that can be bestowed on any internet writer. I'm serious about this. In my three years writing hockey and football cards for Upper Deck the most important 30 minutes of each day were the 15 minutes I spent looking for a dump-worthy story and then the 15 minutes I spent reading the story in the bathroom. And to have someone choosing that time to read my stuff? The closest I'll ever get to a Pulitzer. Thanks, Jeff.

Adam Schefter continues to wave the "Garoppolo is staying" banner. David Price may be the one saying he is ready. Or he's just tired of Pawtucket. And can Devin Marrero steal Pablo Sandoval's starting job?

The Boston Celtics have taken a lot of steps forward this year and gave the fans an entertaining season. Going forward, Danny Ainge will be busy trying to get this team to the next level. How will he tackle the obstacle that Lebron and the Cavaliers present?

I have a S&W 642 that I bought for my wife to have around the house when I'm on the road, I myself carry a Chiappa Rhino 200DS.
For a alloyed frame revolver with a 2" inch barrel, there is very little muzzle flip with .357mags due to the pistol design of firing from the 6 o'clock position. When I shoot .38spl +P it's like shooting a loud 22LR.
Here is a comparison chart between the S&W 640 and the Chiappa Rhino 200DS
As you can see the Rhino is a bit bulker then the Smith but overall dimensions are about the same. Advantage over the Smith is it does give you 1 extra round and like I said before very little muzzle flip even with magmum loads.

I was not a fan of this product. The 3 colors seemed a little too similar to each other too me. Additionally they were too light in color, just mostly looked clear to me. I also didn't like the sticky texture2

Put A Spell On You
Take some '70s-era hippy folk, mix in a heap of religion, add a touch of makeup and stage it as a bouncy, Broadway-style musical performed at a "family-friendly" theater in Hurst. Sounds like a night in hell to me, but maybe you're into that sort of thing. Well then, slip on your Earth Shoes, put the fam in the VW microbus and head on out to Artisan Center Theater, 404 E. Pipeline Road, for the company's production of Godspell, the hippy-trippy musical version of the Gospel of Matthew. (We're responsible people here at the Dallas Observer, so in no way are we endorsing the use of hallucinogens to enhance your theater experience. That would be wrong.) Artisan Center's version of the 1971 musical opens Friday and continues through January 27. Performances are 7 p.m. Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday (with a 3 p.m. matinee on Saturday). Call 817-284-1200.
Mondays, Thursdays-Saturdays, 7 p.m.; Saturdays, 3 p.m. Starts: Dec. 29. Continues through Jan. 27

Palm Beach, Florida: Is this the lift President Obama was looking for on his campaign bus tour through Florida?
In this key swing state, Obama stopped at Big Apple Pizza & Pasta Italian Restaurant, where he was greeted by owner Scott Van Duzer, a muscular man dressed in a grey T-shirt and matching athletic shorts.
Van Duzer was so smitten by the president that he embraced him in a bear hug, leaned backward and lifted the 1.8-metre president a foot off the ground. Photos of the moment show Obama with his arms spread wide and palms turned upward, as if to say he's at the mercy of the pizzaman.
Van Duzer has a broad smile on his face, and a woman in the background has a look of sheer surprise. Reporters lined up on the other side also had a clear view of the lift.
Afterward, a reporter at the scene reported that Van Duzer, 46, from Port St. Lucie, stands 1.9 metres and weights 118 kilograms, and he can bench-press 160.
"Everybody look at these guns," Obama said, pointing to Van Duzer's chest. "If I eat your pizza, will I look like that?"
"Look at that!" Obama exclaimed after Van Duzer put him down. "Man, are you a powerlifter or what?"
Obama told reporters that he stopped at the restaurant because the owner has set state records for donating blood.
"Here's an example of somebody who is doing well, but he's also giving back. So we just want to say how proud we are of him," Obama said. "I still wonder how he got these biceps, but what we know is that the guy's just got a big heart along with big pecs. So we're very proud of him, and we just want to say thank you for all the great work."
Van Duzer is a registered Republican, but he voted for Obama in 2008 and said he will do so again in November.
"I don't vote party line, I vote who I feel comfortable with, and I do feel extremely comfortable with him," he said. Apparently, the Secret Service gave him the go-ahead to lift Obama "as long as I didn't take him away."

Roasting in the dry heat of an oven is especially well suited to the dense vegetables of autumn and winter. Coated with a little olive oil and exposed to high heat, the natural sugars in the vegetables emerge.
Roasted Root Vegetables
2 pounds sweet potatoes; medium- or low-starch potatoes, such as red or Yukon gold potatoes; large carrots; or other vegetables suitable for roasting, cut into 2 1/2-inch wedges or chunks
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tsp. chopped fresh thyme or rosemary
1/2 tsp. sea salt
1/8 tsp. freshly ground pepper
|Add the seasonings
Add the thyme, salt and pepper. Using your hands or two wooden spoons, toss the vegetables to coat them thoroughly with the oil-herb mixture.
|Transfer to a roasting pan
Transfer the vegetables to a roasting pan, making sure to get all the remaining oil and herbs out of the bowl.
|Arrange the vegetables
Arrange the vegetable pieces in a single layer without crowding. Doing so will expose the maximum surface area of the vegetables to the high heat of the oven and encourage even browning.
Roasted Beets with Rosemary
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Cut 1 1/2 pounds small red or yellow beets into two-inch chunks and add them to a baking dish just large enough to hold them. Toss with 3 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary, 4 teaspoons olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon sea salt and 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper. Roast, turning occasionally, until the beets are golden brown and tender when pierced with the tip of a paring knife, about 1 hour.
Roasted Potatoes and Garlic
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Add 1 1/2 pounds fingerling potatoes to a baking dish just large enough to hold them. Add the unpeeled cloves from 1 head of garlic. Toss with 1/4 cup olive oil, 3 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme, 3/4 teaspoon sea salt and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper. Roast, turning occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and tender when pierced with the tip of a paring knife, about 40 minutes.

text:
Before Christmas last year, anxious mutterings were to be heard in the inner sanctuaries of the Inns of Court and the Bar Council. It was said that Sir David Clementi had been asking some searching questions. He had even gone so far as to ask about the nature of the relationship between the Inns of Court and the Bar Council. If there was ever a disagreement, which one would have the ultimate say in the regulation of the profession?
This question caused consternation. Nobody seemed to know. It just worked. Then a 1987 agreement between the four Inns of Court and the Bar Council prescribing their respective roles was unearthed. The problem with this agreement was that, not only was it expressly said to be not binding in law, but it was also cancellable by any inn on 12 months' notice. It could hardly rank as the last word in constitutional affairs. And then there were other mysterious bodies such as the Council of the Inns of Court, a body which to insiders was most important, but to those not in the know, such as the vast majority of the bar, a body of whose existence they were blissfully unaware. And what about the Joint Regulations Committee, supposedly a joint committee of both the Bar Council and the Inns of Court, but in reality treated as a Bar Council committee in which the Inns of Court play no part at all?
Clementi was obviously baffled by the constitutional structure of the bar. And not only as regards the formal structure. It was even suggested that he would be forbidding benchers who are judges from having lunch in an inn with benchers who are barristers. He could not understand how, in these Article 6 days, the judge could go off to lunch with one of the barristers while the opposing barrister and the solicitors were left to fend for themselves at the local Prêt-à-Manger.
In the event, there was a collective sigh of relief. Clementi's proposals were very much 'big picture' ones. He was not going to concern himself with matters such as lunch. He remained as baffled about the governance of the bar as everyone else, but his solution was not to change anything. In his view, the answer lay not in his proposing any changes at all to the way the bar is governed; rather, the answer was to create a new body to which all governing organs of the legal profession, including the Bar Council, would be answerable to. He opted, in the jargon of his proposals, for model B+, a description that was not intended to be, but could perhaps be understood as, a grade for the merits of the proposal.
There would be a Legal Services Board for all the legal profession, a sort of Oflaw. One of its functions would be to review the way the bar is governed. Thus, in due course it seems that exactly the same submissions will have to be dusted off again, although this time it will be Oflaw that will be listening rather than Clementi.
When it will happen is anybody's guess. For the average practitioner at the bar, one may wonder whether the existence of a body above the Bar Council and the Inns of Court will, in practice, make any difference at all to their professional life. The proposal does look, at least at first sight, rather like the old and now discredited financial services structure, with a number of different so-called 'front line regulators' and one supervisory board. Clementi acknowledged the similarity, but in his view there were sufficient structural points of difference between the legal and the financial services industries to make the analogy inapt.
Unsurprisingly, given his professional background, it was Clementi's general thesis that lawyers should be much more commercially orientated. In his perception, the notion of a potential conflict between lawyers as professionals and lawyers as businesspeople was "misplaced" – whether a litigant who has been treated as a simple money-making opportunity by their lawyer would agree is, perhaps, debatable. In any case, it is this commercial philosophy that underlies the suggestion of legal disciplinary practices (LDPs). It is hard to see why they should be called disciplinary, but the idea is that barristers should be permitted to team up in partnership with other kinds of legal practitioners such as solicitors, licensed conveyancers, notaries and so on to create a one-stop legal shop. Indeed, the owners of the shop need not even be lawyers. Perhaps pension funds will do better investing in lawyers than in shares or property. Clementi stopped short of proposing the abolition of the current bar rule that forbids partnerships between barristers. Indeed, while the language of his report suggests that he does not agree with the rule's retention, he does see merit in the present structure of chambers consisting of a number of sole practitioners sharing expenditure.
It has to be said that if barristers are permitted join LDPs as partners, it is hard to see how the bar's ban on partnerships can remain. Would a set of chambers be converted into a permissible partnership LDP if one solicitor advocate is invited to join 30 other barristers? Some at the bar no doubt favour abolition of the ban on barristers being partners; nevertheless, I suspect that one of the main reasons why most barristers come to the bar is precisely because they relish being individuals answerable only to themselves, rather than being part of a collective office. Even if the ban is scrapped, many, if not most, barristers can be expected to remain as sole practitioners – that is, unless commercial pressures squeeze out these touching relics of the past.

Problems with K2 Motors
So Ive been having problems with K2 for about 6 months now I ordered me tails from them last summer and they arrived fine, well after install the one stopped working 1 week later it took me a couple times to get a hold of them but finally did. They said they would send me a new one to replace it but would charge me 70 bucks til i got the new one and sent the old one back. So that was fine i did that they said they got the light back and I still havent recieved my money. Several phone calls and asking to speak to managment and they refuse, they always say they are busy. Well the last time i called a month ago they said I would have my money back In 24 hours well still havent got it to this day. Anyone else have problems with them? Cause i will never do business with them again...

Yes, I had some serious issues with them, almost too much to type. Long story short, they sent me package and put the wrong zip on it, twice. In between that time I had to remind them to send the package again (because after the first time it was unable to be delivered, so it went back to them). I am in NJ & they are in Cali, so you can imagine how much of a pain that was.
Word of advice, leave a REALLY BAD message on their eBay comments/ratings (provided thats how you bought it). As soon as I did that, expressing how mad I was about the situation, I finally got a hold of someone that could help me. Refunded shipping fees and everything.
Also, about them not being available when you call... I never had an issue getting through to someone on the phone with them. Only prob was, some of the people who answer the phone just don't know anything and bullshit you around. Keep a record of each person you talk to, ask for their name and everything.
In the end, I have my headlights and tail lights installed, and I am happy.... now, lol

Getting things done! so excited!
I'm so excited on a role! I've gotten so much done in the past two weeks!
I scheduled my first dress fitting (for the hem job), found my veil (which i purchased today but have to wait for it to come in. :( ), found my shoes (need to order them), found our DJ (waiting for contract to send deposit), booked our engagement shoot finally (for my birthday! 10/13), purchased my corset bra thing that David's calls a torsolette, found a dress for a friends wedding and will probably wear to my engagement shoot as well (debating on wearing a black or yellow crinoline underneath it to make it more poofy and fun. need shoes, but need to hunt in my closet first),
it's a plum purple... ignore my so serious face and pink bra.
but im most excited about finding an important component to my centerpieces for my reception today! Here's my insperation pic:
and here's what i found:
So i guess instead of hanging tea lights, these branches are lit with LD's! they were 4.99 a branch!! not bad if i say so myself. so i will decorate them with some floral branches and some red string (to go with my theme) and hanging little crystals or something shiney. im so excited!!! i sent a pic to my reception hall coordinator since i am useing her vases to see what she thinks! <3 what do you guys think??
I am so happy things are going well and right!!! now to finalise a part of my menu so i can order invitations!!!!!!!

|At the end of June in 2007 I was walking the streets of Dubrovnic looking for an internet cafe so I could find out who the Sixers would take to help the franchise bounce back from the Allen Iverson trade. Thad Young wasn't the name I was expecting to read, but the news certainly didn't ruin my vacation. Over the next seven years in Philly, he'd reach the playoffs four times and keep his chin up as the team was torn down to the studs around him. Nothing but the best in Minny, Thad. The return for their best (remaining) player? Questionable.
Latest comment: from Dollar Bill"Good luck" this season to 'traveling salesmen' Willie Green (Magic), Jameer Nelson (Mavs) and John Salmons (Pelicans) !!! ...
|No pun intended. In a move that appears to be spinning wheels and helping out an old friend, Sam Hinkie has traded for Royce White - an average D-Leaguer with anxiety problems (and a Twitter obsession) - and Furkan Aldemir, a stashed European big man.
Latest comment: from TrayI still say pled, for what it's worth. And I'm a 20-something....
|I get it, I really do. You traded your best asset for essentially the #1 pick in this year's draft and a probable lottery pick in next year's draft. You've made the team bad...Bobcats bad. They're going to be bad for (at least) a year when it could pay huge dividends to be bad. Get worse to get better...the middle is the worst...accumulate assets. It all makes sense, I just have a favor to ask.
|Yes, the bottom-feeding scourge of the sports blogging world, fake trades. With the team spiraling out of control, Bynum's return hopefully looming, but not before a handful more losses pile up and a weird three-day rest period, why not?
|According to more reports than you can shake a stick at, the Philadelphia 76ers will acquire Andrew Bynum (pictured above destroying the Sixers) in a four-team trade. Andre Iguodala, Moe Harkless and Nikola Vucevic are the players reportedly on the move, and Jason Richardson will join Bynum in Philadelphia.
|If my reading of the tea leaves is incorrect (and it probably is), and the more optimistic members of the fan base are correct, the Sixers have a plan. They're laying the groundwork for a slow rebuild, or a delayed rebuild. They're clearing their books for two years from now. I say if that's the plan, then do it right.
Latest comment: from Charlie HAaron Sorkin? That quote was by Everett Dirksen, 50 years ago, maybe 60....
|According to several reports, the Sixers have acquired Sam Young from the Memphis Grizzlies for the rights to Ricky Sanchez. This is hardly a move which will elevate the Sixers to contender status, but Young is a useful player who they got on the cheap, and he fills a need (though not a glaring need).
Latest comment: from Car hireThat sounds like the bankers and the Murdoch Mob...
|According to Adrian Wojnarowski, the Nets have a "done deal" with the Utah Jazz to acquire Deron Williams. It's a three-team trade, with Derrick Favors, Devin Harris and picks going to Utah, Troy Murphy going to Golden State and other moving parts.
|The Denver Post is reporting the New York Knicks have acquired Carmelo Anthony from the Denver Nuggets. It looks like the Knicks will get Anthony, Chauncey Billups, Anthony Johnson, Shelden Williams and Renaldo Balkman. The Nuggets will get Danilo Gallinari, Raymond Felton, Timofey Mozgov, Wilson Chandler, the Knicks first-round pick in 2014, and two second round picks (originally owned by the Warriors) in 2012 and 2013. (Eddy Curry wasn't mentioned in the article, but his contract has to be involved in the deal).
Latest comment: from GoSixersTheir starting center is currently Ronny Turiaf They should upgrade that as well...
|Since taking over as the head honcho in the Sixers front office, Rod Thorn has made one move. Sending Willie Green and Jason Smith to New Orleans for Craig Brackins and Darius Songaila was more about ridding the team of the players going out than any value coming back. Today, we sit roughly six weeks away from the trade deadline, and with a potential lockout looming, Thorn may have to wait quite some time to put his stamp on this roster if he doesn't before the deadline.
|Heading into the season, looking at this roster, I was firmly entrenched in the "no short-term moves" camp. I believed this team needed to spend the season evaluating the players on the roster, installing a system they could then spend years executing and biding their time for another top draft pick and possibly cap space to be spent a couple years down the road. At this point, though, it's time to reassess.
Latest comment: from MarcusYesssssirrr welcome back home Lee I like thad and think that would be a horrible trade....
|Rod Thorn's first trade as the President of Basketball Operations in Philly finally rid this city of Willie Green. Adrian Wojnarowski broke the story on Twitter. Details after the jump.
|Setting aside, for a moment, Carmelo Anthony's tacit veto power over any trade made before February, can the Sixers put together a decent package for him? Let's take a look after the jump.
Latest comment: from James BealeThat isn't an issue. He wouldn't. ...
|After the jump we'll take a quick look at some of the moves Rod Thorn made while in charge of the New Jersey Nets.
|I'm still sitting around waiting for Ed Stefanski to make a meaningful trade which actually makes the Sixers better on the court. It hasn't happened yet in his tenure as the team's general manager. Last night, I decided to take a look around the league and see if I could find something simple in the hopes that someone might be able to somehow get word to the big man.

The officer's specialty is piecing together traffic accidents and crime scenes with measurements, photos and diagrams
By Sarah Rohrs
Ballejo Times-Herald
VALLEJO, Calif. — It's not exactly a page-turner, but "Fundamentals of Forensic Mapping" could hold someone in the glare of its headlights following the heart-stopping and tire-screeching drama of many car accidents.
The recently published 232-page book is the brainchild of Vallejo Police Department Lt. Joel Salinas whose specialty in maps, photos, diagrams and animated movies of traffic collisions has taken him the world over.

In the invitational 200 meters, Portis won her heat in a time of 24.89, good enough for second-place overall. Morgan Gordon placed eighth (25.43) and Aricka Rhodes (26.08) was 11th.
Jalisa Jarrett clocked 1:37.12 to place sixth overall in the invitational 600 meters.
Dominique Best ran in the 800 meter event and placed 36th with her time of 2:39.51.
In the 4x400 relay, the 'A' group of Portis, Jarrett, Cotten and Rhodes clocked 3:53.18 to win its heat and take fifth-place overall. The 'B' quartet of Harding, Sanders, Gordon and Good finished in 4:13.54 to place 16th.
Heaton, Kaitlyn Good, Katie Honigford and Klump teamed together for a 9:00.13 effort in the 4x800 relay, taking second place in the 10-team race.
In the long jump, Cotten (5.84 meters/19-02.00) was second, Portis was on her heels in third (5.65 meters/18-06.50), Edley finished in a tie for ninth (5.32 meters/17-05.50), Dominique Best took 15th (5.27 meters/17-03.50) and Tessa Parks placed 22nd (5.00 meters/16-05.00).
In the weight throw, Mekayla Breland won flight 1 with a toss of 13.19 meters (43-03.25), placing 26th overall. Frida Akerstrom took third in flight 3 ahead of Jessica Molyet in sixth place with throws of 15.36 meters (50.04.75) and 14.66 meteres (48-01.25), respectively. Akerstrom was 13th overall and Molyet grabbed 17th place.
The Bearcats return to action next weekend, taking part in the Rod McCravy Open in Lexington, Ky. on Friday, Jan. 27 and Saturday, Jan. 28.

Richard - even as a non religious man this sickens me - to be so ''politically correct'' over something etched in history is tantamount to a betrayal.

About MePhotography has always been my passion but not always my full time job. Over the years I have focused on shooting weddings, weather and landscapes. In 2002, as one of the "Twister Sisters", I began documenting severe weather and tornadoes through photography and videography. My weather photography has been published internationally and video has been broadcast on FOX, NBC, CBS, The Weather Channel, National Geographic Television and WE TV.
I also owned and operated a successful studio and framing shop in Telluride, CO for a couple years. I recently moved back to the Minneapolis area and am working to build my wedding photography business as well as gaining more experience with environmental portraits and fine art photography. I am also exploring my creative visions and working to build my portfolio.
I am interested in hiring models for a variety of setups in order to develop my skills with lighting and portraits as well as to create images for my wedding photography business. I will be shooting in both environmental and studio settings.
My contact info is listed on my website at http://www.metzphotos.com.

"These cards are printed on a sturdy, textured cardstock and the color is just right (not too bright, not too dark). I'm glad I ordered this design and will purchase again when I run low on cards."
"I was concerned that the typeface might be a bit small, but it all looks great. Very professional, and a bit swish also. I could not be happier."
"I have received so many compliments on this business card. I've just opened a children's music studio. Just by switching the font up, this card easily conveys both the fact that I'm a kid friendly business and a nice aesthetic. Excellent customer service at proof check, and I'm in California, so really fast shipping."
"I've just reordered these for the 4th or 5th time. They are so great-looking: chic, sharp, elegant and with just the right degree of moxie. I always receive compliments on them, and the paper quality is great. I also really liked being able to personalize the back (I added the fleur-de-lis). I will keep ordering these!"
"I was looking for something that was simple and beautiful at the same time. I came across this card and knew it was what I wanted. The detail with the color of the name along with the thin lines adds such a nice touch. I was not expecting such a good quality with the paper and was pleasantly surprised. I already have recommended this card along with the site to my friends. Thank you!"

I'll post this to see how it will float here:
What is the most capable, stock, street-legal off-road vehicle that you can purchase in the past 5 years? Since a lot of you will probably ask what "capable" is, for this case, let's just say that capability will be defined as being able to drive the most trails in Moab.
-Street Legal
-Less than 5 years old
-No mods other than tires
-No cap on cost
Post up what you think would be your choice, a pic would be nice, and tell us why (features etc...).
