text:
Atomic Data and Nuclear Data Tables presents compilations of experimental and theoretical information in atomic physics, nuclear physics, and closely related fields. The journal is devoted to the publication of tables and graphs of general usefulness to researchers in both basic and applied areas. Extensive and comprehensive compilations of experimental and theoretical results are featured. Criteria for publication include, in addition to the scientific merit and quality of the work, the utility value of the material presented.
Extensive tables or graphs may be submitted as "supplementary material" or as "supplementary material for online publication only." In the case of very extensive tables or graphs (e.g., beyond about 100 pages), authors may wish to first send representative sample pages to inquire with the editor about the suitability of the subject matter.
It is expected that the main part of all papers will consist of tables and/or graphs. To explain the method of their creation, and to provide context and guidance on their use, introductory material should be provided. These elements should be organized as follows:Abstract
Table of ContentsIntroductory material (with Tables in the introductory material numbered alphabetically, "A, B, C, ...") containing a historical review, mathematical development, or review of experimental methods; description of the standards adopted for production or compilation of the data presented; discussion and information regarding the use of the data presented in tabular and/or graphical form; acknowledgments; and references for the introductory material
Explanation of Tables (with Tables numbered by Arabic numerals, "1, 2, 3, ...") arranged in a tabular style, each symbol or term that appears in the tables should be listed in the left-hand column, in the order in which it appears, and its explanation opposite it in the right-hand columnExamples of the use of the Tables (optional, as appropriate)
Explanation of Graphs (with Graphs numbers by Arabic numerals, "1, 2, 3, ...) arranged as the Explanation of TablesExamples of the use of the Graphs (optional, as appropriate)
References used in the Tables and/or Graphs.Submission checklist

Submission declaration and verification
Submission of an article implies that the work described has not been published previously (except in the form of an abstract or as part of a published lecture or academic thesis or as an electronic preprint, see 'Multiple, redundant or concurrent publication' section of our ethics policy for more information), that it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere, that its publication is approved by all authors and tacitly or explicitly by the responsible authorities where the work was carried out, and that, if accepted, it will not be published elsewhere in the same form, in English or in any other language, including electronically without the written consent of the copyright-holder. To verify originality, your article may be checked by the originality detection service CrossCheck.
Authors are expected to consider carefully the list and order of authors before submitting their manuscript and provide the definitive list of authors at the time of the original submission. Any addition, deletion or rearrangement of author names in the authorship list should be made only before the manuscript has been accepted and only if approved by the journal Editor. To request such a change, the Editor must receive the following from the corresponding author: (a) the reason for the change in author list and (b) written confirmation (e-mail, letter) from all authors that they agree with the addition, removal or rearrangement. In the case of addition or removal of authors, this includes confirmation from the author being added or removed.
Only in exceptional circumstances will the Editor consider the addition, deletion or rearrangement of authors after the manuscript has been accepted. While the Editor considers the request, publication of the manuscript will be suspended. If the manuscript has already been published in an online issue, any requests approved by the Editor will result in a corrigendum.
Upon acceptance of an article, authors will be asked to complete a 'Journal Publishing Agreement' (see more information on this). An e-mail will be sent to the corresponding author confirming receipt of the manuscript together with a 'Journal Publishing Agreement' form or a link to the online version of this agreement.
For open access articles: Upon acceptance of an article, authors will be asked to complete an 'Exclusive License Agreement' (more information). Permitted third party reuse of open access articles is determined by the author's choice of user license.Author rights
As an author you (or your employer or institution) have certain rights to reuse your work. More information.

Elsevier Publishing Campus
The Elsevier Publishing Campus (www.publishingcampus.com) is an online platform offering free lectures, interactive training and professional advice to support you in publishing your research. The College of Skills training offers modules on how to prepare, write and structure your article and explains how editors will look at your paper when it is submitted for publication. Use these resources, and more, to ensure that your submission will be the best that you can make it.
Please write your text in good English (American or British usage is accepted, but not a mixture of these). Authors who feel their English language manuscript may require editing to eliminate possible grammatical or spelling errors and to conform to correct scientific English may wish to use the English Language Editing service available from Elsevier's WebShop.
Our online submission system guides you stepwise through the process of entering your article details and uploading your files. The system converts your article files to a single PDF file used in the peer-review process. Editable files (e.g., Word, LaTeX) are required to typeset your article for final publication. All correspondence, including notification of the Editor's decision and requests for revision, is sent by e-mail.
Please submit your article via http://www.evise.com/evise/faces/pages/navigation/NavController.jspx?JRNL_ACR=ADNDT.
Please submit the names and institutional e-mail addresses of several potential referees. For more details, visit our Support site. Note that the editor retains the sole right to decide whether or not the suggested reviewers are used.
Peer review
This journal operates a single blind review process. All contributions will be initially assessed by the editor for suitability for the journal. Papers deemed suitable are then typically sent to a minimum of one independent expert reviewer to assess the scientific quality of the paper. The Editor is responsible for the final decision regarding acceptance or rejection of articles. The Editor's decision is final. More information on types of peer review.
The preferred word processing software for submission of manuscript is LaTeX. The text should be in single-column format. Keep the layout of the text as simple as possible. To avoid unnecessary errors you are strongly advised to use the "spell-check" and "grammar-check" functions of your word processor.
Proper formatting of manuscripts for Atomic Data and Nuclear Data Tables is achieved by using the LaTeX class elsarticle of Elsevier, and the current package adndt.tex as a template. The template adndt.tex is available from http://www.elsevier.com/__data/promis_misc/adndt.zip. Furthermore, because the articles in this journal usually contain long multipage tables, the current package relies heavily on the longtable.sty LaTeX package. The latter is included in most LaTeX distributions but, if missing, can be obtained from the CTAN archive.
The Elsevier "elsarticle" LaTeX style file package (including detailed instructions for LaTeX preparation) can be obtained from the Quickguide: https://www.elsevier.com/latex or from the Comprehensive TeX Archive Network (CTAN): see below, in the directory /tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/elsarticle. It consists of the files: elsarticle.cls, complete user documentation for the class file, bibliographic style files in various styles, and template files for a quick start.guidelines for users of elsart, a template file for quick start.CTAN is an archive with up-to-date copies of all the public-domain versions of TeX, LaTeX, Metafont and ancillary programs, which is made available via a mirrored network of FTP servers. You can enter the CTAN archive via a web interface in the UK (http://www.tex.ac.uk), in the USA http://www.ctan.org), or in Germany (http://www.dante.de/software/ctan) (page in German). You can search for a package on CTAN via http://www.ucc.ie/cgi-bin/ctan/. You can also enter the archive via FTP at ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk, at ftp://ftp.dante.de, at ftp://ctan.tug.org, or at one of the many mirror servers; see for a list the UK or USA CTAN web pages. When a CTAN server does not respond, please try another one.
Note that CTAN is not related to Elsevier, and that Elsevier's Customer support cannot accept complaints or answer questions about the availability of any CTAN server.
Figures may be inserted in the usual way using an \includegraphics command, at the position in the article where they are cited.Your LaTeX file will be most useful as input for the printed article if you obey the following rules of thumb:
1. Be consistent. If you use a macro for a phrase, use it throughout.
2. Use standard LaTeX mark-up. Do not hardcode your own layout for e.g. section headings, but use the usual LaTeX macro for this purpose.
3. Keep it simple. Do not define macros that accomplish complicated layout. They will also make the input process complicated. Subdivision - numbered sections
Divide your article into clearly defined and numbered sections. Subsections should be numbered 1.1 (then 1.1.1, 1.1.2, ...), 1.2, etc. (the abstract is not included in section numbering). Use this numbering also for internal cross-referencing: do not just refer to 'the text'. Any subsection may be given a brief heading. Each heading should appear on its own separate line.
State the objectives of the work and provide an adequate background, avoiding a detailed literature survey or a summary of the results.
Provide sufficient detail to allow the work to be reproduced. Methods already published should be indicated by a reference: only relevant modifications should be described.
Provide sufficient detail to allow the work to be reproduced. Methods already published should be indicated by a reference: only relevant modifications should be described.
A Theory section should extend, not repeat, the background to the article already dealt with in the Introduction and lay the foundation for further work. In contrast, a Calculation section represents a practical development from a theoretical basis.
Results should be clear and concise.
This should explore the significance of the results of the work, not repeat them. A combined Results and Discussion section is often appropriate. Avoid extensive citations and discussion of published literature.
The main conclusions of the study may be presented in a short Conclusions section, which may stand alone or form a subsection of a Discussion or Results and Discussion section.
Please supply, as a separate list, the definitions of field-specific terms used in your article.
If there is more than one appendix, they should be identified as A, B, etc. Formulae and equations in appendices should be given separate numbering: Eq. (A.1), Eq. (A.2), etc.; in a subsequent appendix, Eq. (B.1) and so on. Similarly for tables and figures: Table A.1; Fig. A.1, etc.
• Title. Concise and informative. Titles are often used in information-retrieval systems. Avoid abbreviations and formulae where possible.
• Author names and affiliations. Please clearly indicate the given name(s) and family name(s) of each author and check that all names are accurately spelled. Present the authors' affiliation addresses (where the actual work was done) below the names. Indicate all affiliations with a lower-case superscript letter immediately after the author's name and in front of the appropriate address. Provide the full postal address of each affiliation, including the country name and, if available, the e-mail address of each author.
• Corresponding author. Clearly indicate who will handle correspondence at all stages of refereeing and publication, also post-publication. Ensure that the e-mail address is given and that contact details are kept up to date by the corresponding author.
• Present/permanent address. If an author has moved since the work described in the article was done, or was visiting at the time, a 'Present address' (or 'Permanent address') may be indicated as a footnote to that author's name. The address at which the author actually did the work must be retained as the main, affiliation address. Superscript Arabic numerals are used for such footnotes.
A concise and factual abstract is required. The abstract should state briefly the purpose of the research, the principal results and major conclusions. An abstract is often presented separately from the article, so it must be able to stand alone. For this reason, References should be avoided, but if essential, then cite the author(s) and year(s). Also, non-standard or uncommon abbreviations should be avoided, but if essential they must be defined at their first mention in the abstract itself.
Although a graphical abstract is optional, its use is encouraged as it draws more attention to the online article. The graphical abstract should summarize the contents of the article in a concise, pictorial form designed to capture the attention of a wide readership. Graphical abstracts should be submitted as a separate file in the online submission system. Image size: Please provide an image with a minimum of 531 × 1328 pixels (h × w) or proportionally more. The image should be readable at a size of 5 × 13 cm using a regular screen resolution of 96 dpi. Preferred file types: TIFF, EPS, PDF or MS Office files. You can view Example Graphical Abstracts on our information site.
Authors can make use of Elsevier's Illustration and Enhancement service to ensure the best presentation of their images and in accordance with all technical requirements: Illustration Service.
Highlights are a short collection of bullet points that convey the core findings of the article. Highlights are optional and should be submitted in a separate editable file in the online submission system. Please use 'Highlights' in the file name and include 3 to 5 bullet points (maximum 85 characters, including spaces, per bullet point). You can view example Highlights on our information site.
Immediately after the abstract, provide a maximum of 6 keywords, using American spelling and avoiding general and plural terms and multiple concepts (avoid, for example, 'and', 'of'). Be sparing with abbreviations: only abbreviations firmly established in the field may be eligible. These keywords will be used for indexing purposes.
Define abbreviations that are not standard in this field in a footnote to be placed on the first page of the article. Such abbreviations that are unavoidable in the abstract must be defined at their first mention there, as well as in the footnote. Ensure consistency of abbreviations throughout the article.
Collate acknowledgements in a separate section at the end of the article before the references and do not, therefore, include them on the title page, as a footnote to the title or otherwise. List here those individuals who provided help during the research (e.g., providing language help, writing assistance or proof reading the article, etc.).
Formatting of funding sources
List funding sources in this standard way to facilitate compliance to funder's requirements:
It is not necessary to include detailed descriptions on the program or type of grants and awards. When funding is from a block grant or other resources available to a university, college, or other research institution, submit the name of the institute or organization that provided the funding.If no funding has been provided for the research, please include the following sentence:
This research did not receive any specific grant from funding agencies in the public, commercial, or not-for-profit sectors.Units
Follow internationally accepted rules and conventions: use the international system of units (SI). If other units are mentioned, please give their equivalent in SI.
Nomenclature and units
Follow internationally accepted rules and conventions: use the international system of units (SI). If other quantities are mentioned, give their equivalent in SI. You are urged to consult IUPAC: Nomenclature of Organic Chemistry for further information.
Please submit math equations as editable text and not as images. Present simple formulae in line with normal text where possible and use the solidus (/) instead of a horizontal line for small fractional terms, e.g., X/Y. In principle, variables are to be presented in italics. Powers of e are often more conveniently denoted by exp. Number consecutively any equations that have to be displayed separately from the text (if referred to explicitly in the text).
Footnotes should be used sparingly. Number them consecutively throughout the article. Many word processors can build footnotes into the text, and this feature may be used. Otherwise, please indicate the position of footnotes in the text and list the footnotes themselves separately at the end of the article. Do not include footnotes in the Reference list.
Image manipulation
Whilst it is accepted that authors sometimes need to manipulate images for clarity, manipulation for purposes of deception or fraud will be seen as scientific ethical abuse and will be dealt with accordingly. For graphical images, this journal is applying the following policy: no specific feature within an image may be enhanced, obscured, moved, removed, or introduced. Adjustments of brightness, contrast, or color balance are acceptable if and as long as they do not obscure or eliminate any information present in the original. Nonlinear adjustments (e.g. changes to gamma settings) must be disclosed in the figure legend.
General points
• Make sure you use uniform lettering and sizing of your original artwork.
• Embed the used fonts if the application provides that option.
• Aim to use the following fonts in your illustrations: Arial, Courier, Times New Roman, Symbol, or use fonts that look similar.
• Number the illustrations according to their sequence in the text.
• Use a logical naming convention for your artwork files.
• Provide captions to illustrations separately.
• Size the illustrations close to the desired dimensions of the published version.
• Submit each illustration as a separate file.
A detailed guide on electronic artwork is available.
You are urged to visit this site; some excerpts from the detailed information are given here.
If your electronic artwork is created in a Microsoft Office application (Word, PowerPoint, Excel) then please supply 'as is' in the native document format.
Regardless of the application used other than Microsoft Office, when your electronic artwork is finalized, please 'Save as' or convert the images to one of the following formats (note the resolution requirements for line drawings, halftones, and line/halftone combinations given below):
EPS (or PDF): Vector drawings, embed all used fonts.
TIFF (or JPEG): Color or grayscale photographs (halftones), keep to a minimum of 300 dpi.
TIFF (or JPEG): Bitmapped (pure black & white pixels) line drawings, keep to a minimum of 1000 dpi.
TIFF (or JPEG): Combinations bitmapped line/half-tone (color or grayscale), keep to a minimum of 500 dpi.
Please do not:
• Supply files that are optimized for screen use (e.g., GIF, BMP, PICT, WPG); these typically have a low number of pixels and limited set of colors;
• Supply files that are too low in resolution;
• Submit graphics that are disproportionately large for the content.
Color artwork
Please make sure that artwork files are in an acceptable format (TIFF (or JPEG), EPS (or PDF), or MS Office files) and with the correct resolution. If, together with your accepted article, you submit usable color figures then Elsevier will ensure, at no additional charge, that these figures will appear in color online (e.g., ScienceDirect and other sites) regardless of whether or not these illustrations are reproduced in color in the printed version. For color reproduction in print, you will receive information regarding the costs from Elsevier after receipt of your accepted article. Please indicate your preference for color: in print or online only. Further information on the preparation of electronic artwork.
Ensure that each illustration has a caption. Supply captions separately, not attached to the figure. A caption should comprise a brief title (not on the figure itself) and a description of the illustration. Keep text in the illustrations themselves to a minimum but explain all symbols and abbreviations used.
Text graphics
Text graphics may be embedded in the text at the appropriate position. If you are working with LaTeX and have such features embedded in the text, these can be left. See further under Electronic artwork.
Number tables consecutively in accordance with their appearance in the text. Tables that are to appear in the introductory material are numbered by consecutive alphabetic characters, "A, B, C, ..." and Tables following the introductory material are numbered by Arabic numerals, "1, 2, 3, ...". Place footnotes to tables below the table body and indicate them with superscript lowercase letters. Avoid vertical rules. Be sparing in the use of tables and ensure that the data presented in tables do not duplicate results described elsewhere in the article. Citation in text
Please ensure that every reference cited in the text is also present in the reference list (and vice versa). Any references cited in the abstract must be given in full. Unpublished results and personal communications are not recommended in the reference list, but may be mentioned in the text. If these references are included in the reference list they should follow the standard reference style of the journal and should include a substitution of the publication date with either 'Unpublished results' or 'Personal communication'. Citation of a reference as 'in press' implies that the item has been accepted for publication.
Web references
As a minimum, the full URL should be given and the date when the reference was last accessed. Any further information, if known (DOI, author names, dates, reference to a source publication, etc.), should also be given. Web references can be listed separately (e.g., after the reference list) under a different heading if desired, or can be included in the reference list.
This journal encourages you to cite underlying or relevant datasets in your manuscript by citing them in your text and including a data reference in your Reference List. Data references should include the following elements: author name(s), dataset title, data repository, version (where available), year, and global persistent identifier. Add [dataset] immediately before the reference so we can properly identify it as a data reference. The [dataset] identifier will not appear in your published article.
Reference to arXiv
As with unpublished results and personal communications, references to arXiv documents are not recommended in the reference list. Please make every effort to obtain the full reference of the published version of an arXiv document. If a reference to an arXiv document must be included in the references list it should follow the standard reference style of the journal and should include a substitution of the volume and page numbers with 'arXiv:YYMM.NNNN' or 'arXiv:arch-ive/YYMMNNN' for articles submitted to arXiv before April 2007.
Please ensure that the words 'this issue' are added to any references in the list (and any citations in the text) to other articles in the same Special Issue.
Reference management software
Most Elsevier journals have their reference template available in many of the most popular reference management software products. These include all products that support Citation Style Language styles, such as Mendeley and Zotero, as well as EndNote. Using the word processor plug-ins from these products, authors only need to select the appropriate journal template when preparing their article, after which citations and bibliographies will be automatically formatted in the journal's style. If no template is yet available for this journal, please follow the format of the sample references and citations as shown in this Guide.
Users of Mendeley Desktop can easily install the reference style for this journal by clicking the following link:
When preparing your manuscript, you will then be able to select this style using the Mendeley plug-ins for Microsoft Word or LibreOffice.
Text: Indicate references by number(s) in square brackets in line with the text. The actual authors can be referred to, but the reference number(s) must always be given.
Example: '..... as demonstrated [3,6]. Barnaby and Jones [8] obtained a different result ....'
List: Number the references (numbers in square brackets) in the list in the order in which they appear in the text.

text: Hey everybody! My name is Marty, and I'm brand new here. I bought a 97 Catera about a month ago on ebay for only $1500. It had what I considered a few minor problems so I took a chance on it. Most of the inside panels were off, the radio had been stolen, and the main thing was it had a pretty bad missing problem, but was drivable. Well I have to say I had no idea how much parts cost for these cars, altho I have found deals online. Bottom line is I replaced all the interior panels, installed an aftermarket Pioneer head unit (the Bose speakers were still in the car, I just had to re-run all new wires to them. It sounds great and looks awesome. Only yesterday did I finally get new plug wires, which I hoped would fix my missing problem. And it did! Car now runs perfectly. It's amazing how well it runs now, and I got the idea by reading the posts here. Thanks to you all. Now I have one more major problem that just popped up 3 days ago. I turned the car on as normal, and in about 30 seconds the blower fan started running on high speed...couldn't do anything to turn it down or off. It even runs like that with the car turned OFF. I finally had to take the fuse out to make it stop, so as not to kill the battery. You guys helped me before, any help with this would be GREATLY appreciated. This forum is great and I'm so glad I found it!

Howard condemns killing
The Sun-Herald
Page Tools
All decent people would be appalled at the callous beheading of a United States hostage in Saudi Arabia , Prime Minister John Howard said yesterday.
An Islamic extremist group linked to the al-Qaeda terrorist network displayed photographs of 49-year-old aviation engineer Paul Johnson's severed head and body on a website.
Shortly afterwards, as group leader and believed head of al-Qaeda in Saudi Arabia, Abdulaziz al-Muqrin deposited the body in Riyadh, he and two other top militants were surrounded by Saudi security men and gunned down.
"All decent people will be appalled at the callous beheading of the United States hostage in Saudi Arabia, Paul Johnson," Mr Howard said in a statement.
"It is a sickening reminder of both the face and behaviour of international terrorism. This evil act was without any conceivable justification."
Mr Johnson was the third American killed in the past 10 days in the Saudi Arabian capital.

This should put some anti-ereader elitists' complaints about Kindles and Nooks to bed.
The new U.S. ambassador to Switzerland and Liechtenstein, Suzi LeVine, was sworn into office on Friday. Instead of laying her left hand on the Bible, she opted for an ereader loaded up with the Constitution of the United States. It was an off-brand ereader, but an ereader nonetheless.
Ambassador LeVine had the 19th amendment, which gave women the right to vote, loaded on the tablet's screen. This is an interesting choice because, as Tech Digest points out, Switzerland didn't give women the right to vote until 1971. WTF, Switzerland?
The newly minted diplomat is no stranger to technology. Ambassador LeVine started her career with an internship at NASA, worked at Microsoft in the '90s and again from 2009 to 2012, and put in a few years as a VP at Expedia, according to the State Department.
We welcome Ambassador LeVine's innovative spirit and tech savvy. Swearings-in are boring as hell; at least someone's trying to shake them up.

Russia has been accused by Western diplomats of reneging on a pledge to stop supplying arms to the Syrian regime.
The assurances made more than a month ago were presented by British officials as a sign the Kremlin was distancing itself from President Bashar al-Assad and his ruling cabal.
The flow of arms has, however, continued unhindered, the Russians stressing that there was no United Nations prohibition on supplies and it was simply fulfilling its contractual obligations.
As well as air and naval defence systems, the Kremlin may now be preparing to send Yak-130 jets which can be fitted with missiles to carry out ground attacks, according to US and European officials.
The Syrian regime has extensively used warplanes to carry out raids on heavily populated areas, leading to dozens of civilian casualties. Russia's state arms agency holds a US$550 million ($651 million) contract to supply 36 of the Yaks, which are trainers but can also be used on combat missions.
Last year, a Russian-operated ship carrying helicopter gunships and air-defence missiles was forced to turn back to Russia after its British insurers withdrew coverage. The aircraft were then sent using a different shipping company.
While Assad's regime continues to receive weapons, from Iran as well as Russia, a British attempt to give military aid to the Syrian rebels failed at a European Union meeting in Brussels yesterday. There was agreement, instead, on an amendment which would allow more "non-lethal" assistance to the opposition.
British Prime Minister David Cameron's Government was isolated in its efforts to strengthen the moderate revolutionary factions, who have been increasingly sidelined by jihadist groups receiving arms and money from backers in the Gulf states.
Russia has insisted it is within its rights to keep arming the regime as there are no UN resolutions prohibiting this.
Anatoly Isaikin, the director of Rosoboronexport, Russia's huge state corporation arms agency, said: "In the absence of [UN] sanctions, we are continuing to fulfil our contract obligations. We are mostly shipping air-defence systems and repair equipment intended for various branches of the military."
The British move was opposed by Germany and Scandinavian countries.
The French, who had backed the British position, have become more lukewarm since the troops they sent to Mali found Western arms supplied to Libyan rebels in the jihadist arsenal. "Technical assistance and protection of civilians will be easier," said Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius. Independent

Public Information, REIT Responses, Size, Leverage, and Focus
We evaluate REIT responses to the release of REIT-specific and macroeconomic news over two periods with differing economic climates. More specifically, using high-frequency data we track the response function over a period of sixty minutes following each announcement. Tests show REIT-specific information to have larger, and in many instances opposite effects to that of macroeconomic news. REITs also tend to be more sensitive to public information when the economy experiences a downturn. REIT size, leverage, and focus play an important mediating role between REIT trading activity and public information.

Weight: 170
40 time: 4.45
Bench: 260
Squat: 320
Vertical: 35"
From: Los Altos, California
High School: Los Altos
As a senior, Chapelle Brown had 42 catches for over 800 yards and nine touchdowns. He also had 10 carries for 118 yards and one touchdown. On defense, he had 25 tackles and eight interceptions. He is also the starting point guard for the Los Altos basketball team where he averages 23 points a game.
Colorado has recruited him as a cornerback and he is currently the only one in the class. "On defense, I put great pressure on receivers and cover very well," Brown boasts. "I can also break on the ball well. I love to compete."
Los Altos Head Coach Greg Gano says of Brown, "Chapelle is a big leaper, he is only 5-9 but he can slam dunk a basketball. He is also plenty fast. He could play on either side of the ball (in college)."
Colorado was the only school to offer Brown. "It is because of my size. But, I play a lot bigger than 5-8 and I can out-jump anyone so it doesn't bother me."
Boulder was the only college campus he visited. "I liked it a lot up there. They play against the best teams in the country every year in the Big 12 conference. That is the level I want to be at."
Brown is fully qualified.

Hi all,
We've been using the JZBZ cups that fit into holes drilled in cell bars ("push in cups"). The other style fits into a groove is called "wide base").
I think most use the wide base...it's easier to cut a groove than a bunch of 25/64" holes, and there is more flexibility in where you place the cells on the bar.
In any case, just wanted some reassurance that people are happy with these before I order a bunch...any thoughts?

Pistachio-Fig Biscotti
These crunchy Italian cookies are delicious dipped in strong coffee or dessert wine.
- Yield: Makes 3 dozen
Source: Martha Stewart Living, December/January 1994
- 1/2 teaspoon whole fennel seeds
- 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon anise extract or Sambuca
- 1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup shelled pistachios
- 4 ounces dried figs, (about 6 large), stems removed, cut into 1/4-inch dice
Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a small pan over medium-low heat, toast fennel seeds, swirling the pan; set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar on medium-high speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add eggs, extracts, and zest, and beat on medium speed until creamy and light, 2 to 3 minutes.
In a medium bowl, combine remaining ingredients. Add to butter mixture. Mix on low speed until just incorporated. Remove dough to a clean surface; divide into quarters. Form into 9-by-1-inch logs, place on an ungreased baking sheet 2 inches apart, and bake until lightly browned, 25 to 30 minutes.
Remove from oven, and cool slightly. Reduce oven temperature to 275 degrees. Using a serrated knife, cut logs on the diagonal into 1/2-inch thick slices. Arrange biscotti on their sides on a baking sheet. Return to oven, and bake until golden, about 30 minutes. Turn biscotti over, and bake for 30 minutes more.

Latest Georgetown University Study Reports That Many Best Paying Jobs Don't Require a College Degree
Student loan debt consumes millions of college grads every year, but most don't know that they could have avoided this debt headache had they simply applied for jobs that don't require four-year college degrees.
This is especially true based on the data from a new Georgetown University study. It reports that many of the market's best paying jobs are available to individuals who don't hold a bachelor's degree.
Non-Grads Can Land the Best Paying Jobs Too
At least 29 million of the labor market's best paying jobs exist in the United States, many of which would help employ middle-class Americans who have been out of work for years.
For many, the great part about these jobs is that they don't require a four-year degree college degree, something most workers assume is a requirement in order to acquire a job that can support their families.
Among the jobs identified, nursing and sales came out as two top fields that are currently in need of workers. Also, work as a paralegal, insurance agent, truck driver and fork lift operator are some of the best paying jobs available, with the average wage for the jobs listed at $42,000.
Some positions even pay well above $50,000, helping workers hit the median household income mark, without the burden of student loan debt.
Can Student Loan Debt Be Avoided?
It's no secret that student loan debt is a major issue for college graduates. Earlier this year, a report from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) revealed that student loan debt topped $1 trillion in 2011, and is increasing at a rapid pace.
Some may wish that they had avoided their student loan debt and simply acquired one of the best paying jobs listed above. But despite not requiring a four-year degree, most of these high-pay jobs require some type of post-secondary certificate or training. And some require a two-year college degree, which means there is no guarantee that debt could be avoided without financial assistance.
These two types of financial aid help to reduce the amount of student loan debt students must shoulder.
- Grants & Work-Study: Though student loans are included in most financial aid packages, other types of aid are available, including grants and work-study programs.
- Scholarships: Private and school-based scholarships are available every year to help pay for finance education.
If you're considering applying to the best paying jobs on the study, the good news is that many certificate and apprenticeship programs are found at community colleges or private trade schools that don't cost as much as a four-year university.

Two flight certified SHOSS Boxes, owned jointly between the two companies, are the key hardware product that enable the service. The boxes are capable of carrying up to 400 pounds of cargo, have flown to space aboard the space shuttle three times (STS-96, STS-101, STS-106), and are scheduled to fly at least one more time.

About "Ghost on the machine" by Laser Bread
Ghost on the machine
Design by Laser Bread
Hi, this is my sub for the Hot Chip glow ink contest. I wanted the use of the glow ink to have a point, and not just be used for the sake of using it. Here, the glow effect takes this nice design of a copy machine on a t-shirt and gives it a whole new meaning once the lights go down. I decided to do this design on a light colored shirt, to make the glow aspect a nice hidden surprise. As for the ghost, I wanted him to look Casper-esque, bubbly and cute. I also thought giving him legs (and little ghost pants) was a nice touch and made the idea stronger. Hope you enjoy it. I think it turned out pretty well.
Design notes:
-6 colors, including glow ink.
-Cool halftone
-Shown here on light gray, but it would look great on any light colored shirt: white, cream, light blue, mint, yellow.
-Glow ink, although transparent, would appear very, very faint on the shirt when not in a dark room.
YES! I even love the randomness of just a photocopier during the day! $5!!!
Smashing. This is really really great, I'll be very surprised if I love any other designs for this competition as much as this.
5 + 5$
This is hilarious. Nice!
This is perfect.
I love this so much. The photocopier is so well done that it doesn't matter that that's all there is to it during the day!
nothing like glow-in-the-dark ghost buns
Ghost + glow + xerox prank + assshots =
Insanely awesome!
I can't believe I'd actually wear a shirt with a copier on it... but this is so great, I would.
I can't wait to be a ghost if it means pulling hilarious pranks! $5
Ghots butt prints, whats not to like? $5
Ahahahahahaha at the belt. Or, at everything!
This is fantastic. FANTASTIC, says I.
wow real funny!!
hilarious!! great idea and this just looks like a print!!
Hey, thanks for the great comments so far. I really appreciate the support.
Haha, way cute. Very nice :)
I'd probably still 5 this if it was just the photocopier. Great work.
this is simply awesome.
Fantastic 5$.
Another hit. This one blows away the competition.
Can't wait to be covering my chest with this.
Wooooooowwww! incredibly awesome im speechless
I like your idea, but that glow ink would show up during the day, lessoning the dramatic impact. I also believe that it would cover up the parts of the copier that it is covering. Not sure, but I know it doesn't just magically appear. IT would still be seen. That being said, I still think it's pretty funny.
Just awesome, print this! $5
$5 $5 $5 %%%%%%! 1,000,000% cool!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is quite amazing!
ahahahahaha is Fuunnnyyyyyyyyyyy
First decent entry in the competition! + Neato idea! 4!
nonono... one glance at it again and 5 it will be!
Original and awesome!
awesome use of glow!
love it
want it
need it
Wow, thanks for all the nice comments. I do appreciate it.
too funny 5$
Fricking A+.......brilliant! 5$
Yep. Im not even gonna read all these comments. 5 and WIN.
This is really a brilliant concept, and VERY well executed. To those who dont' like it because glow ink "lightly shows up in the daytime" or whatever, THE CONTEST SAYS TO USE GLOW INK. EVERY design will have that problem. I think it works better if the ghost is even just lightly visible in the daytime as well.
5, it's gonna be tough to beat this =)
Olie, my point was that I was worried that the glow ink would overlap the copier lines, I don't think they can overlap and you would still be able to see under the glow in in the light. Personally I think it would be okay if you could lightly see the ghost during the day.
You needn't worry Chengui, according to Threadless specs...super glow is "very transparent" and has a "tonal clear effect" so lines under the glow show through. (If for some reason it wasn't transparent, the easy fix would be to place the copymachine layer above the ink.) Also, the ghost will be ever so slightly visible in the day. Which makes it really cool.
Glad everyone is digging this design. I really like it.
great shirt, funny and executed very well 5

YOU WIN sir!
Yes!!! Congrats!!! this great PRINT!!!!!!s
congrats!, and PRINT IT!
wow~! super awesome!! print!
great score.
can't wait to wear this!
congrats laser!
It's a great idea, but I don't see how the ghost will be invisible in daylight? Surely glow ink will stand out on light grey?
Tonteau, thanks for the comment...the super glow ink is very transparent and has a tonal clear effect. So it will be very faint on the shirt, but virtually invisible.
Hey, LB. Hmmm....are you sure that's the case with super glow? Cos I have this shirt which uses super glow and the outlines are most definitely visible. I don't know if the ink has changed, but the old stuff would be fairly obvious. Kudos to you if it works, though.
Loooove it :). Good natured and sassy all at once.
Awesome score.
Tonteau is dead right though, no way is GID ink invisible. I see you have the ghost image on the day slide ever so subtly, however, the ink would be more visible. But it doesn't matter because then the idea will also be communicated during the day, thus people won't be walking around with copy machines on their chests.
And if ghosts are invisible, how would one copy it's butt? Kind of like if a tree falls in a forest etc etc...
And Lastly!
What, that link sucks, here's a way better link on youtube!
Hey Robsoul, yeah, I'm not sure why Tonteau was referencing the ghost being invisible, I never mentioned, nor do I expect it to be invisible...I did say in my opening description that the ghost would be faintly visible in daylight. And yes, the ghost image is included on the day slide, it looks much more noticeable on my monitor. Thanks for the link :)
I was referencing the ghost being invisible because it is nigh on invisible in your preview.
yeah, it definitely looked invisible when I first looked at it too. but then I finally saw the faint apparition.
I'm pretty sure this will be printed whether or not it wins the contest.
dude, fantastic score!
hey j-ray, yeah, i actually intended for the ghost to be seen in the preview, but it ended up looking more faint then it will if printed. by the way, you have some pretty great designs.
ahahahah fucking awesome
i missed it but it fricking brilliant!!!
Coolest shirt ever. I'm buying it
You're on fire!
Congrats dude! I knew this one would print!
saw wheat!!!
i love this shirt and everyone else i know loves it too!
great idea.
Why am I stumbling upon this page?

Because who doesn't need to upgrade their Lamborghini?
While in Miami with teammates Josh Gordon and Greg little (along with San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick), Cleveland Browns Pro Bowl cornerback Joe Haden treated himself to a brand new 2014 Lamborghini Aventador.
Pushing out an economical 720 horsepower, Haden's new ride will set him back roughly $400,000, or roughly $200,000 less than one of his impending 2014 game checks.
As Haden points out in his Instagram post, it's only right that it's Browns orange. Haden's other Lamborghini is a white Murcielago.

Americans Take Anti-Drone Stance Directly to Pakistan
Posted by Medea Benjamin in Featured, Peace, Democracy and Human Rights, Stop Funding War, World News & Events on 26th September, 2012 | 1 Comment
When it comes to drones, Americans and Pakistanis see the world through different lenses. Americans are looking through the eyes of remote-control pilots safely ensconced in bases in the United States, while Pakistanis are at the receiving end of the bull's eye. Polls show to the two peoples as polar opposites: 83% of Americans support the use of drones against "terrorist suspects overseas"; in Pakistan, among those who say they know something about drones, virtually all—97%—oppose them.

Coast Guard sends investigators to fire damaged Star Princess
The U.S. Coast Guard has reportedly sent investigators and fire engineers to Jamaica to confirm that Princess Cruises Star Princess can safely return to Fort Lauderdale after a fire broke out that cost the life of one passenger and damaged a number of cabins.
According to a statement issued by Princess Cruises, this morning at approximately 3:10 am local time, as Star Princess was en route from Grand Cayman to Montego Bay, a fire broke out in the passenger accommodations, and spread to adjacent cabins.
The statement says that passengers were immediately notified of the fire using the public address system and requested to report to their muster stations. Princess Cruises subsequently completed a full check to account for all passengers and crew.
"We deeply regret having to confirm that there has been one passenger fatality following a cardiac arrest, two passengers with significant smoke inhalation injuries and nine passengers with minor complications resulting from smoke inhalation," says the statement.
The ship is carrying a total of 2,690 passengers and 1,123 crew members.
A full damage assessment is being carried out now that the ship has arrived in Montego Bay.
According to later media reports, two people were hospitalized in Montego Bay on the ship's arrival in Jamaica.
CNN reports that more than 100 cabins were damaged in the fire. Another report puts the number of damaged cabins at more than 150 and say that 550 passengers whose cabins were damaged will be moved to two hotels in Negril and Ocho Rios.
One report says that the fire was apparently caused by a cigarette and started on a balcony.
A special number has been set up for inquiries from immediate family of passengers who are currently onboard: 1-800-693-7222.

State, local efforts aim to improve quality of early learning centers
There is universal agreement these days that what a child learns in the early years-birth to 5-is critical to his or her success in school. But as yet, no one agrees what kids should be learning in those years, how to get them into a quality program, what constitutes a quality program or how you even get and keep good early education teachers.
Hoping to find some agreement, the state formed the Illinois Early Learning Council, a task force of policy makers who will address questions that include childcare quality, accountability and staffing. The group brings together early childhood experts from across Illinois, says Harriet Meyer, council co-chair and president of the Ounce of Prevention Fund in Chicago.
She expects great things. "I've done a hundred task forces and strategic plans that go on a shelf," she says. "The difference here is every ... director in a leadership position is sitting around the table." It won't be delegated to an underling.
But this realization that communication is key to early education is not just being made on the state level. Locally, early childhood experts in Oak Park and River Forest are planning to bring kindergarten and preschool teachers together to talk about what children need to know before they enter kindergarten.
"There is enormous disorganization and little communication between childcare and early schooling [providers]," says Eric Gershenson, a driving force behind the Collaboration for Early Childhood Care and Education.
What's needed, members of the group say, is ongoing communication between caregivers and educators to decide what kids need to learn before entering school. Then, they will develop training programs for preschool workers to help them teach those agreed-upon skills.
It starts with a Feb. 21 meeting, the First Early Childhood Symposium and Dialogue. The program is free and open to "anyone who takes care of children" in Oak Park or River Forest, Gershenson says.
Getting caregivers-from babysitters to storefront daycare providers to teachers in high-quality preschool programs-together with elementary educators to agree on kids' skills is critical, says Elizabeth C. Smith, coordinator of the collaboration.
Another key goal is to recognize childcare providers for the "incredible work they do," says Smith, who hopes this will be the beginning of monthly meetings between childcare providers and kindergarten teachers. The Feb. 21 kick-off is from 9 a.m. to noon followed by a free lunch at Dominican University, 7900 W. Division St., River Forest. For information, call (708) 802-5446.

EXCLUSIVE! Is Jenelle Evans' Baby up for ADOPTION??
Despite her best efforts, pregnant Teen Mom 2 bad girl Jenelle Evans has been unable to keep up the "Perfect Relationship" routine with her boyfriend (not her husband) Nathan Griffith. Things have been getting increasingly more tense between the two expecting parents, and Nathan says he isn't sure the couple will make it. (Click to next page below)
41 Comments
The baby would be better off given to a hobo on the street, most certainly to a family that can't conceive
You sound like a creep!! You don't need kids you freak
I'm not surprised. I am however surprised that you're trying to take the "selling a baby" angle. Go to any adoption site- it's not unusual at all to talk about compensation. They're usually more than willing to cover doctor and insurance expenses and let's not forget delivery… those bills can be enormous. It sounds like Nathan just wanted to know how much they pay for- lord knows they probably don't have the money to pay for it.
That's exactly right. Some agencies even cover living expences such as rent and groceries. And all agencies are VERY careful about it NOT turning into a "baby selling" thing because that is illegal. Lawyers generally are involved to make it go smoothly. I honestly think adoption is a good choice for them and then maybe some permanent birth control.
I would love to have a baby girl . I would take good care of the baby and provide the loving care she needs. Look no further I would love to provide for her if you want to give her up.
It wouldn't be a her. Janelle is having a boy.
So u giving up ur baby because of a relationship? Smh this is the 3ed time she been pregnant the 2nd time she had taken a abortion pills from hwr doctors n now this. Smh
Wtf is wrong with you ^
I would adopt kaiser in a heartbeat. I've been trying to get pregnant for 6 years
I think he's an a** , and it's mostly him that just wanted his 15mins of fame and nothing else, I think she should keep it and focus on raising her 2 sons and forget finding a man and focus on building a better relationship with her mother who may always be yelling but is still always there for her and her kids even when no one else is!
Right, cuz she's doing a wonderful job with the first one.. Smh
She needs to keep the baby she seems more responsible
I would actually love to adopt her baby if she was really planning on doing adoption. I don't live too far from where they are so it would be perfect.
She doesnt take care of her other child god only knows how many abortions shes had. Just let her give that baby to somebody who will ACTUALLY love him/her!!!
she needs to get her tubes tied so she can't have anymore babies
This girl is a piece of shit ! she needs to grow the fuck up and learn what a fuking condom is ! and stop getting abortions and abandoning kids be it with her mother or trying to basically sell her unborn child. Next time she goes to jail (cause it will happen) hey should just keep her in there.
It's a good thing Jelly didn't break this story. She would probably report the baby is "interracial" like she does all her others when a baby is involved.
It's a boy.
^^ well put I completely agree with you!!
Melissa – if you adopt the baby do you promise not to name him Kaiser?
that is so screwed up she need to be fixed so she can't have anymore kids if she can't raise her son and the new baby she needs to learn to keep her legs closed
This girl needs serious help. Now.
That is pretty sick! Does this idiot think that Janelle is some sort of surrogate (and therefore would be entitled to compensation)? What a moron! That poor baby.
I would love to adopted her baby cause I can't have kids and I want to be a mom :(.
Honestly, I hope to God this child is given up for adoption. Then they need to fade into obscurity.
It's so sad. My husband and I can't have children of our own, even though we want to so bad to be parents. We don't have a lot of money to even adopt. If we had the money we would adopt her little one. Seeing this just is so sad, they have the chance to be parents unlike us who can't.
Jeanelle needs to have her tubes tied all she does is jump from man to man and get knocked up she needs to grow the hell up and raise the child she already has before making new ones it would be the best thing in the world for this child to be put up for adoption and never know he has a slut for a mother and a stupid meat head gold digger for a father i feel the worse for poor Jace who is stuck in the middle yes Barbara takes care of him but who do you think made Jeanelle the way she is she is gonna mess him up just like she did the first time but worse because he is stuck between two fuck ups great
I love u jennele and would be ur nanny and help.u raise ur baby. Dont give up and dont do anything.u.will.regret later.keep ur head up high and u do what u feel is.right..who cares.what the world.thinks.who.cares what naythan thinks. U can raise a baby alone. I did it with 5 babies.. if u need help contact me at email@example.com. im 34 and my kids are almost grown as I had them all before age 18. I would even adopt the.baby if u.arent willing to.keep him and let me be ur.nanny. I have adopted 1 child and had him.the past ten years.hes on his way to graduating with the rest of my.kids..love you girl..you remind me of me so much..
That's so creepy it's not even funny. Also, if she reminds you of yourself so much, you probably should not be raising this child. Just saying.
You don't know anything about me. I have raised five children.one is adopted I've raised them to tens in their way to graduating high school.I'm in college for nursing ready to graduate myself you idiot. I can properly raise more if I've successfully raised 5 already moron.
Honestly wow that just crazy.I wouldn't give up my baby for nothing. Fighting or not! I hope this baby is given to a loving home, if it would happen to be the case. Blows my mind. #PoorBaby
Nathan really needs to calm down. Jenelle is pregnant and hormonal.
If I adopt your baby can I finally meet you? You are my BFF!
At this stage, if they were wanting to keep the baby's adoption a secret there is only one way to do that, and it sickens me to think it. They have to fake the babies death right? How else could they act like nothing happened?
Baby would be better off in a home that would love him. To much going on in both of there there lives. They both need to seek some help. Heart goes out to the baby.
The baby should be given for adoption in a caring and loving family.
Are you serious!!?? Why would you get pg again and just give the baby away? Wow this bitch doesn't need to have anymore kids!!! That's not right but you got people in world who can't have babies! 🙁
Jenelle is not and has never been "responsible". I'm not one to judge a person's past behavior because truth be told, we have all done things in the past that we are not proud of. But my problem with Jenelle is that it seems as though she doesn't learn from her mistakes because she keeps making the same exact ones; especially when it comes to her choice in the guys that she dates. Once you make the same mistake more than once, it's no longer considered a mistake, it becomes a choice.
Jenelle's problem is that she needs to learn how to control her anger and attitude. Until she actually figures out what her inner demons are that's holding her back from truly changing, learning, and growing from her mistakes, she'll always fall back to the same problems: drug use and domestic/dating abuse. As far as how I feel about her having another baby and the possible adoption, I would be happy if she adopted. Let's be honest here, just because you can have children, doesn't mean you should. Jenelle doesn't even have custody of her first child. Even when she does spend time with Jace, she's either arguing and cursing with her mom or Nathan right in front of him. Then her and her mom have the nerve to wonder why he's cursing himself now and wondering where he learned the f-word from?! Seriously?! It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that Jace is showing out in an aggressive way simply because he is a product of his environment. Babs and Jenelle fight and argue like cats and dogs and have done so since Jace was a small baby, I hope that she adopts that child to a responsible adult who has their life together.
I hope Jenelle goes through these comments and reads them.
Jenelle is an oxygen thief.
Is she really going to give up her son. If so let me know
