By using a novel X-ray technique, researchers have observed a catalyst surface at work in real time and were able to resolve its atomic structure in detail. The new technique, pioneered at DESY's X-ray light source PETRA III, may pave the way for the design of better catalysts and other materials on the atomic level.
It greatly speeds up the determination of atomic surface structures and enables live recordings of surface reactions like catalysis, corrosion and growth processes with a time resolution of less than a second.
"We can now investigate surface processes that were not observable in real time before and that play a central role in many fields of materials science," explains DESY researcher Prof. Andreas Stierle. The Swedish-German research team around lead author Dr. Johan Gustafson of Lund University present their work in the US journal Science.
Materials scientists currently lack a method to record data of the full atomic structure of surfaces during dynamic processes within a reasonable time. Existing methods are either too slow or require ultra high vacuum, prohibiting the flow of gas in the test chamber and thus ruling out a live investigation of dynamic reaction processes involving gas phases at near atmospheric pressures.
"Our goal was to observe surfaces under reactive, application-oriented conditions in real time," says Stierle. The team used the high-energy X-rays from DESY's light source PETRA III.
When X-rays strike a solid material, they are diffracted into a characteristic pattern that yields information about the atomic structure of the material. In conventional X-ray measurements performed at lower photon energies, the sample and the detector must be rotated to map out the full diffraction pattern painstakingly step by step, a procedure that can easily consume ten hours or more.
In contrast, the high-energy X-rays of PETRA III are scattered into a much smaller angular range, producing a much more compact diffraction pattern that can be recorded at once with a high-end two-dimensional detector at the High Energy Materials Science measuring station P07. "This approach makes it possible to record data 10 to 100 times faster," explains Stierle.
As a consequence, scientists can gain a full surface structure in less than ten minutes or track individual structural features with a temporal resolution of less than a second. "It also allows us to more easily identify unknown or unexpected structures," underlines Stierle.
For their investigations, the researchers installed a test chamber, in which the gas pressure can be up to 1 bar - the same as normal atmospheric pressure - to approach realistic reaction conditions. A mass spectrometer allows for on-line monitoring of the gas distribution within the test chamber during measurements.
To demonstrate the new approach, the researchers watched a catalyst of the precious metal palladium live at work: a two millimetre thick palladium single crystal with a diameter of one centimetre converts toxic carbon monoxide into harmless carbon dioxide, much like catalytic converters do in cars.
The technique enabled the scientists to observe how the palladium began to convert the carbon monoxide (CO) into carbon dioxide (CO2) as soon as oxygen (O2) also flowed into the chamber. "We can watch how the catalyst switches from a non-reactive state into a reactive one," explains Stierle who heads the NanoLab at DESY and also holds an appointment as professor at the University of Hamburg.
The researchers hope to identify the catalyst's active phase by using this new approach. For decades, scientists have debated whether the conversion of carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide, for example, takes place on the bare metallic surface, on an oxide layer, or on oxide islands on the surface. "The new technology gives us the opportunity to identify the reaction centres in real time at atomic resolution," says Stierle.
In the end, the findings could be used to optimise catalysts. In general, catalysts are substances that accelerate chemical reactions without being consumed by them. The new X-ray technique has a wide variety of applications for materials research. The scientists expect completely new insights into the kinetics of surface processes, enabling the design of new materials on the atomic level. "The combination of the extremely bright X-ray source, the sample environment and the 2D detector at PETRA III is worldwide unique," emphasises Stierle.

Many managers find giving employees feedback on areas they need to improve intimidating. Yet mistakes are common in the workplace -- and most poor performance can be easily improved. Use creative communication skills to make the situation less intimidating for both you and your employee. Ultimately, your evaluation comments will promote positive results, including a stronger working relationship.
Chronic Lateness
When an employee falls into a cycle of tardiness, it's hard to get her out of it. Further, failing to enforce your on-time policy sets the stage for other workers to find it acceptable to be late. Creatively focus evaluation comments on prevention. For instance, "Jennifer, you are a very important part of our team. I've noticed that over the last few weeks you've been late three times. I need to be able to count on you -- and that means having you here on time. I would be glad to share some time-management tips so we can start to improve your arrival time."
Bad Customer Service
Treating your customers well is a cornerstone of business. When an employee is rude to your clients, it interferes with your company's public perception and profits. Creative communication assists you with this challenge because your evaluation focuses on interpersonal issues. Focus on specific events and avoid attacking a staff member's character. An example is "Bob, I happened to overhear one of your sales calls yesterday. I noticed that some of your word choices could be perceived as terse by certain customers. I think we should do some telephone role playing to avoid upsetting customers."
Poor Team Player
Even your best employee can find it challenging to perform on a team. In fact, 2013 survey research from the University of Phoenix found that 84 percent of adult employees view teamwork as difficult. It's important, however, to foster cooperation and solid performance in this workplace situation. Offer the following creative evaluation comment: "You get along with pretty much all of your co-workers, Sarah, but I have received feedback that, many times, there is conflict when you work with others on a team. I want us to work together to figure out what the challenges might be and to tackle this problem."
Under Sales Quota
In some work situations, each of your staff members must meet a quota. Failing to do so creates problems for them and for you. Do not threaten or issue blame in your evaluation strategy. Instead, focus on motivating the employee. For example, "We are all extremely committed to hitting our sales targets for the week. I have noticed your dedication has not translated into the figures we'd hope for. I believe there's room for you to improve -- and I want to partner with you to improve your sales performance."

The Ethical Nature of Medicine (1989)
Bibliographic Citation
Loyola University Audiovisuals
Dr. Edmund P. Pellegrino focuses on the dual obligation of the physician to the medical profession and to the patients. In a time of change in health care, he says that trust cannot be enforced nor can care become a business. He thinks that the physician is the obligated agent of the patient.

Based on the comic book series by Mike Mignola, Guillermo del Toro's gleefully eccentric films follow the supernatural adventures of Hellboy (Ron Perlman), a cigar-chomping, horn-filing demonic hero enlisted by an occult scholar (John Hurt) to fight evil in the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense. Along with the fire-throwing Liz Sherman (Selma Blair) and the amphibious psychic Abe Sapien (Doug Jones) Hellboy is called upon to save mankind from other-worldly threats. In the first film this threat comes from the villainous Rasputin (Karl Roden), who unleashes a monster leading to events that may set off an apocalyptic nightmare for humanity. In its sequel THE GOLDEN ARMY, the red-skinned demon hero must face off against a new nemesis called 'the Prince' (Luke Goss), a dastardly villain who is hellbent on summoning an army of dark forces in order to create a rebellion against humanity and conquer the planet.

Emon: We won't rush Cisse
By Laurent Picard
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Boss Albert Emon insists Djibril Cisse will not be rushed back into Marseille's first team.
Marseille coach Albert Emon insists Djibril Cisse will not be rushed back into the first team, regardless of the team's problems.
The 24-year-old loanee Liverpool striker returned to training at the Stade Velodrome in mid-October after four-and-a-half-months out of action with a broken leg.
He has yet to play for l'OM since joining the club in the summer, and had predicted he would be back by the end of September or October.
But Emon remains relaxed about the situation, moving to reassure Marseille fans that the French international is still making good progress.
"Everything is alright, he is still working separately from the group with his personal trainer Jean-Charles Cellier," Emon explained.
"He is making great progress with the ball it is perfect.
"I can't tell you a date for his return to competition.
"He will decide by himself when he feels ready to face duels and full contact. The player has the final say on that decision."
But after picking up just a point from their last three matches in Ligue 1, Emon will hope to have his striking ace back with his team-mates sooner rather than later, to add a new burst of energy to revitalise the team.

aria2 is a multi-protocol & multi-source, cross platform download utility. The supported protocols are HTTP(S), FTP, BitTorrent, Metalink. It can download a file from multiple sources/protocols and tries to utilize your maximum download bandwidth.
aria2 1.18.2 ============ Release Note ------------ This release fixes the wrong handling of return value of fork(), which leads to high CPU usage. The progress readout has some color output. Mingw32 build now receives colorized output. Mingw32 build now can read unicode command-line arguments. The build script of OSX was rewritten. The --bt-max-open-files now limits the number of opened file globally for multi-file downloads instead of per download basis. Changes ------- * Remove the outdated, broken build_osx_release.sh * Initial revision of the a new OSX release Makefile * Allow using libgmp with AppleTLS/WinTLS * Fix crash when metaurl contains unsupported URI or text * Fix bad fork() return value handling * Use some colors in progress reports (where available) * Implement basic color support for the Windows console Only \033[*m (SGR) is supported, with a 16+16 color terminal. * AppleTLS: Implement PKCS12 loading. * Limit number of opened file globally with --bt-max-open-files option This change changes the behavior of --bt-max-open-files. Previously, it specifies the maximum number of opened files for each multi-file download. Since it is more useful to limit the number globally, the option now specifies the global limit. This change suggests that aria2.changeOption() method now ignores --bt-max-open-files and aria2.changeGlobalOption now reads it and dynamically change the limit. * Don't fail multiple concurrent dl same file if auto-file-renaming is enabled * mingw32: Use CommandLineToArgvW() and GetCommandLineW() to read cmd-line args This change enables aria2 to read unicode characters in command-line. aria2 1.18.1 ============ Release Note ------------ This release fixes the percent-encoding bug which affects file name encodings. It adds PKCS12 support in certificate import. It also adds experimental internal implementation of message digest functions, ARC4 cipher and bignum. It means that no external libraries are required to build BitTorrent support, but this feature is still marked as experimental. This release also fixes the android build with NDK r9. Changes ------- * LibsslTLSContext: Remove weak cipher suite * AppleTLS: Enable --certificate * util::percentEncodeMini: Fix regression bug removed unsignedness srange-based for around std::string is convenient but several functions depend unsigned char for correctness and readability. * Log exception; throw error if loading private key and/or certificate failed * Provide internal ARC4 implementation Now you can build bittorrent support without without external libraries, meaning you can skip libnettle, libgmp, libgcrypt, GnuTLS and OpenSSL on OSX (for now). * Internal implementation of DHKeyExchange Reusing a bignum (well, unsigned very-long) implementation I had lying around for years and just cleaned up a bit and brought to C++11 land. It might not be the most performant implementation, but it shoud be fast enough for our purposes and will go a long way of removing gcrypt, nettle, gmp, openssl dependencies when using AppleTLS and WinTLS (upcoming). * PKCS12 support in --certificate and --rpc-certificate options. * Add --disable-ssl configure option * Add internal md5 and sha1 message digests * Fix AppleMessageDigestImpl use with large data * Set old cookie's creation-time to new cookie on replacement As described in http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6265#section-5.3 * Fix link error with Android NDK r9 Since Android ndk r9, __set_errno is deprecated. It is now defined as inline function in errno.h. The syscall assembly calls __set_errno, but since libc.so does not export it, the link fails. To workaround this, replace all occurrences of __set_errno with a2_set_errno and define it as normal C function. aria2 1.18.0 ============ Release Note ------------ This release changes the default disk cache size to 16 MiB. To change the default size, --with-disk-cache configure option was added. Now used URIs are also saved by --save-session option. The control file is now always saved if --force-save is given. The ctrl-c handling on Mingw build was improved. The internal intl library is no longer supplied. From this release, C++11 compiler is required to build aria2 executable. For gcc, at least 4.6.3 is required. Changes ------- * Use AM subdir-objects Doing so in AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE seems to be the most compatible way of doing so. Closes GH-120 * AM_SILENT_RULES([yes]) with backwards-compatiblity Supported since automake-1.11. There is no point in having the very verbose compile stuff running about, which cannot even silenced properly with `make -s` by default. Otherwise, `make V=1` or `--disable-silent-rules` are your friends * Fix automake-1.14 am_aux_dir AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS will cause AC_PROG_CC, which is overridden by automake-1.14, which will then init (part) of automake, in particular am_aux_dir expansion, which in turn relies on ac_aux-dir, which is not initialized at this point, and thus: certain doom (or fun, depending on your POV and mood :p) Hence call AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS only after AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE. This, of course, caused a lot of related macro shuffling. Tested against automake-1.10 (OSX Lion/XCode version) and automake-1.14 (homebrew version) * Require external gettext for --enable-nls And stop using the internal flavor with ./intl * Make AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_11 test for -stdlib=libc++ via std::shared_ptr The clang shipped with OSX XCode and clangs not build enabling libcpp, will default to the libstdc++ headers and lib installed on the system. In the OSX case, that libstdc++ is the one bundles with gcc-4.2, which is far too old to provide all required C++11 types, such as std::shared_ptr. Hence, the C++11 check should try to compile a program with a C++11 type and try -stdlib=libc++ if the default lib fails to compile said program. * Make the configure check for C++11 compiler mandatory Remove stray "dnl", so that mandatory actually works with (my) autoreconf. * Always build doc/manual-src Should sphinx-build be not available AND the man file not be prsent, then just "touch" it into existence (and warn about that) * Win: Use SetConsoleCtrlHandler for SIGINT/SIGTERM * Implement a simple resource lock (threading) In this initial implementation Locks are no-ops on platforms other than Windows. * Check for sphinx-build during configure * Add --with-disk-cache configure option Enables packagers more fine grained control over the default value without having to mess with config files. See GH-115 * Change defaults: Enable 16M disk cache by default. * Always save control file if --force-save is given * Set log level DEBUG for unittests * Check that C++ compiler supports override keyword If the compiler supports override, define CXX11_OVERRIDE as override, otherwise define it as empty. Use CXX11_OVERRIDE instead of override. * AppleTLS: Fix MessageDigestImpl * AppleTLS: Fix session CFRelease stuff * Use AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_11 macro to detect C++0x/C++11 support in compiler * Require -std=c++11 and use std::shared_ptr instead of SharedHandle * Join URI on redirect * Send HAVE message to the peer which the piece is downloaded from Historically, aria2 did not send HAVE message to the peer which the piece is coming from, thinking it is obvious that the peer knows we have the piece. But it is not obvious if one piece is download from more than 1 peers (e.g., end game mode). So it is better to send HAVE to all peers connected. * Improvements to --follow-torrent=false documentation. Patch from gt * SessionSerializer: Truly unique URIs Before, only spent uris where sanitized not to be contained within remaining uris. Change this so that each uri in the union(remaining,spent) get saved once at most. The order of the uris will won't be changed, with remaining uris going first followed by spent uris. Also avoid copying the uri std::strings around during dupe checking, usually resulting in better performance regarding CPU and space. * Make getOption RPC method return option for stopped downloads * SessionSerializer: Save spent URIs as well as remaining ones

The firm wants to put a 29-foot mast in Lea Wood Road, Fleet, but the plan has come under fire from approximately 200 people.
A total of 172 parents taking their children to nearby All Saints Junior and Tavistock Infants schools have sent objection letters to Hart Council. The governing bodies of both schools have objected.
The scheme has also come under fire from at least 26 residents, along with Hampshire County Council and Hart councillors sitting on the Fleet and Church Crookham Planning Advisory Group.
Leading campaigner Peter Withey said the mast would be unsightly.
"Standing alone on the grass verge, it is more than twice the height of existing lampposts and will dominate the street scene," he said.
"Contrast this with the masts in Crookham Road, Reading Road North and Elvetham Road, which are screened by trees, rhododendron bushes and other greenery.
"Such a prominent installation will undoubtedly adversely affect property values in the area, a material consideration that the planning committee must address.
"A mast which is situated so close to family houses and to a school will undoubtedly cause worry and stress to many people.
"Whatever the current state of scientific opinion and advice, the safety emissions from such masts remains unproven.
"The Stewart Report recommends the adoption of the precautionary principle when considering planning approval near sensitive sites such as schools.
"Hampshire County Council does not allow mobile masts on its sites and people will worry about their health and that of their children.
"There is a genuine threat to the well-being of the residents and the application should be rejected on these grounds alone.
"The installation is unnecessary, poorly sited and although alternative sites are available, Orange has not demonstrated that they have thoroughly explored them.
"Indeed, the planning application contains many errors and shows a very casual approach to an issue that will affect residents for years to come."
Mr Withey said the supporting statement with the planning application asked for a 9,325-metre high telecommunications pole.
"This is clearly impractical, exceeding the height of Everest," said Mr Withey.
"One of the councillors who has responded to my e-mail message outlining details of the mobile base station is Susan Band.
"Her husband George was the youngest member of the successful Everest bid in 1953, so he should know all about a proposed mast that is higher than Everest.
"This application, the third attempt to install a mast in Lea Wood Road, is flawed and the development control committee must reject it once again."
Mr Withey said that unless Hart councillors reject the mast, residents could find themselves taking part in a study to investigate the risk of early childhood cancers among people living near mobile phone base stations.
The investigation by Imperial College, London is part of a Government funded £7 million research programme.
"Hart children could easily find themselves as guinea pigs in this cancer report, which is not expected before April 2005," warned Mr Withey.

What a great pairing this one turned out to be! The guys over at Staxus have really been focusing on pairing up their British guys with their Czech lads over the past few weeks, and this duo is one of the hottest when it comes to contrasts. Ennio Guardi is the muscular tanned hunk with the thick uncut cock, and Kai Alexander is the slim and sexy pale Brit with an eager hole ready to take a pounding. The guys kick off their action with a lot of uncut cock sucking, but the sight of Ennio's girthy dickk easing into Kai's tight little white butt is truly impressive. Stay tuned for the cum squirting at the end of this scene as Kai gets a facial before wanking out his own mess.

Mark Dion
Mark Dion
Mark Dion is a natural fit to collaborate with Graphicstudio because of the highly interdisciplinary nature of his visual art. His practice investigates museumology, scientific history and methodology, taxonomy, environmental studies, even taxidermy. His exploration of museum practice and installation methodology can often blur the line between works of art and natural history museum installations. Dion's work has touched on such timely and critical issues as environmental politics and public policy, the philosophy and ethics of collecting, diversity within museum collections, and the mediated understanding of nature through the lens of dominant ideologies.
A staple of Dion's work has been his use of Renaissance collections known as wunderkammern, curiosity cabinets containing encyclopedic collections of exotic items. World in a Box is a suite of 27 charts, graphs, diagrams and lists, a wunderkammer in a box. It makes use of many different printmaking techniques, including lithography, etching, digital printing, cyanotype, woodcut, letterpress, screenprint and direct gravure. The prints making up World in a Box are contained in a handcrafted wooden box including a colophon that gives the name of each print, and which is signed by Dion.
Dion based this portfolio of seven photogravures, Herbarium, on Henry Perrine (1797-1840), a doctor, horticulturist and diplomat, who was one of the first American naturalists to grasp the vast agricultural potential of Florida. As a pioneer in subtropical botany, Perrine tirelessly collected previously unknown flora, gathering masses of plants, roots, seeds, shoots, and herbarium specimens. In 1838, the United States Congress awarded Dr. Perrine a vast land grant in southern Florida to establish an experimental botanical station for the research of alien tropical plants introduced to United States soil. However, before the experimental station was operational, Perrine was murdered in a Seminole raid on Indian Key. During the attack the house and compound were burned and Perrine's invaluable herbarium and specimens were lost. Dion's distressed portfolio of pressed marine algae specimens is in response to this tragic loss, presenting itself as the few remaining specimens salvaged from the remains of Perrine's herbarium.
Dion based his two-color lithograph Tree Scheme on the "figurative system of human knowledge," or the tree of Diderot and d'Alembert. This classification system was developed to represent the taxonomy of human knowledge itself and appeared in Diderot's Encyclopédie, a general encyclopedia published in France in the last half of the 1700s. Dion literally adopted the idea of the "tree" and entitled it "The Representation of Nature" on the trunk. Its leafless branches bear words—terms, names, disciplines—that relate to our responses to, and knowledge and classification of, the natural world. Surrounding the tree on the ground are objects that can be taken as a warning: the watering can of "The Museum of Natural History," which can nurture the tree, the axes of "capitalism" and "the art world," which can cut it down, and the fungi of "inertia."

Kim Kardashian can't keep adorable North West away from her camera. Sometimes, the pint-sized fashionista even sneaks in unannounced while her mom is showing off her style dilemmas on Twitter. While Kim showed her Twitter followers the pile of clothing she has to choose from — and the resulting mess — her daughter appeared to be happily playing with a pair of sweatpants, apparently wearing them as a scarf.
yesterday…trying to pick out an outfit struggle pic.twitter.com/gt5kvkqu7a
— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) December 20, 2014
Eventually, Kim chose the outfit in the photo, although with a different pair of shoes with clear straps. The Daily Mail reported that Kim and sister Khloe were filming for their reality program that day, and Kim was wearing the crop-top and pencil skirt in the Twitter photo.
It was barely a week ago that Kim Kardashian caused a stir with another selfie that showed the side of her heavily made-up face. Her daughter had been cropped out of the shot. The black brick wall behind Kim made it into the snap, which she posted on to Twitter.
— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) December 15, 2014
Kim Kardashian was quick to respond to the controversy by dismissing the criticism.
Wait is this really news that I posted a selfie & cropped my daughter out? LOL — Kim KardashianWest (@KimKardashian) December 15, 2014
The Daily Mail reported back in January that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, North's parents, had different ideas regarding North's appearance on the family's reality programs. Kourtney Kardashian, who just had her third child with partner Scott Disick, frequently features her children on Keeping Up With The Kardashians and other shows. Kanye West, according to the Mail, does not want North on-camera and wants Kim to be done with reality television as soon as possible.
Ironically, that Daily Mail report also noted North frequently appears on her mom's social media, although in one snap, her face was cropped out. In recent months, North has been spotted all over Kim Kardashian's Twitter and Instagram, even showing off her petite fashion sense in leather pants and a fur wrap. On that pic, Kardashian referred to North as her "best friend."
Kim's style selfie comes just days after she reportedly criticized her own mother, Kris Jenner, for her fashion choices. In an email released by Jenner, the younger Kardashian said her mom should favor the tight dresses often worn by her daughters.
"We need chic, tight dresses. Not this [A]mish sh-t anymore."

text: I decided even before I did my TT that I wanted to use scar therapy so I could help my scar heal nicely. I started using embrace about 4 weeks after my procedure. The first silicone sheets were applied at my surgeons office. After the first 10 days I went to remove it and there was a considerable difference already. My scar appeared much smoother and didn't have the puckering at the corners and in certain areas it had before. I left it off for a day and then reapplied the second application myself at home and found it very easy. Again after the 2nd 10 days I removed the embrace. Much to my surprise my scar was looking even more improved. I went to my 6 week post op apt before applying the next dressing and my doctor, medical assistants and the Embrace rep all were amazed with my results as well. I can't wait to see how good my scar will look once I'm finished with the whole treatment process. I have 2 more after this one. Here is my before picture. I will post my after picture when complete.

Create Chä is an insanely powerful Chä in the Bless Zodiac.
To become a Create Chäotic you must be in Black, Blue, Yellow, or White alignment and in Intellect, Emotional, Supernatural, Spectral or Hero class.
Here is a brief description of the power of the Create Chä.
- Create Weapons: Creates weapons from thin air. These weapons can be a simple as a sword or as complex as a Plasma Rifle. The Chäotic can infuse part of his own powers into the weapon.
- Create Fortress: Creates a fortress from the mind of the Chäotic. Although it takes only moments and can be as varied as the Create Weapon power... It sends weak Chäotics into a coma.
- Create Shield: Allows the Chäotic to create shields and armor in a manner similar to Create Weapon. The armor or shields can be infused with the Chäotic's powers and again, can be highly varied.
- Create Hospital: Creates a hospital in a manner similar to all other Create powers. Anyone being healed in the hospital regenerate at an accelerated rate. The Chäotic who uses this power enters a coma.
- Create Court: Creates a court building in a fashion similar to the Create Fortress power. The courts look different, but they all have one room that adapts itself to fit a proper punishment. The Chäotic that uses this power will most likely enter a coma.
- Create Prison: Creates a prison in a manner similar to Create Fortress. Again, it can be varied in design and will send the Chäotic that made it into a coma.
- Judgment Weapons: The Chäotic can summon a weapon that is based off of their personality at all times. This weapon will ONLY harm the person guilty of what the Chäotic blames them of.
- Create Temple: Creates a temple in a manner similar to all create powers. The temple always has a room that grants purification to any sick or tainted beings. The Chäotic that makes the temple will slip into a coma.
- Chaos Weapons: Creates a weapon drawn from the user's personality that changes it's power based on what attacks have been used on the Chäotic recently.
Note on Comas
The comas won't last long, however still should be taken seriously. One or two real-time days is all it will take.
Environmental Effects
Every power is effected greatly by the environment and the environmental effects can be shut off. Basically, the design/powers of the items or buildings are infused with the element of that region.

In Borex about 276 or (31.9%) of the population have completed non-mandatory upper secondary education, and 227 or (26.2%) have completed additional higher education (either university or a Fachhochschule). Of the 227 who completed tertiary schooling, 41.9% were Swiss men, 26.4% were Swiss women, 18.5% were non-Swiss men and 13.2% were non-Swiss women.[10]
In the 2009/2010 school year there were a total of 90 students in the Borex school district. In the Vaud cantonal school system, two years of non-obligatory pre-school are provided by the political districts.[17] During the school year, the political district provided pre-school care for a total of 1,249 children of which 563 children (45.1%) received subsidized pre-school care. The canton's primary school program requires students to attend for four years. There were 49 students in the municipal primary school program. The obligatory lower secondary school program lasts for six years and there were 40 students in those schools. There were also 1 students who were home schooled or attended another non-traditional school.[18]
As of 2000[update], there were 367 students in Borex who came from another municipality, while 93 residents attended schools outside the municipality.[16]

Congressman King's amendment prevents Ag Bill funds from being spent on abortion drug RU-486 "for any purpose"
Congressman Steve King (R-IA) released the following statement after the House of Representatives voted 240-176 to pass an amendment he introduced which prevents any funds within HR 2112, the Agriculture Appropriations bill, from being spent on the abortion drug RU-486 "for any purpose," including use in "telemed abortions." Telemed abortions involve using videoconferencing technology to dispense mifepristone, the abortion drug commonly known as RU-486, to patients without having a doctor present. Abortion providers like Planned Parenthood are the frequent recipient of federal telemedicine grants, and King's amendment makes it clear that telemedicine grants contained within the agriculture bill cannot be used to facilitate the use of RU-486 in "telemed abortions." This issue is of particular importance in Iowa, as the "telemed abortion" technique was developed by the Des Moines-based abortion provider "Planned Parenthood of the Heartland", and reports indicate that 1,900 chemical abortions using this technology have been performed in Iowa alone.
"I applaud the House of Representatives for passing my important pro-life amendment today," said King. "American taxpayers should not be asked to subsidize abortions, and federal telemedicine grants should not be used to enable abortion providers like Planned Parenthood to dispense the RU-486 abortion drug. My amendment ensures that no telemedicine grant money in the Agriculture Appropriations bill will be spent for any purpose that enables abortionists to perform 'telemed abortions.' Cutting off this source of funding for this procedure will save the lives of women and unborn babies."

You know what it feels like when other people hurt or disappoint you
You may have felt ignored or rejected, heard cruel words, experienced physical abuse, suffered sexual abuse, been raped, or gone through countless other experiences.
It's easy to respond by becoming depressed, self-condemning, bitter, or angry
When someone does or says something hurtful, it's normal to react with self-pity, anger, insecurity, or hurt feelings. You don't need to feel guilty for having these reactions. As you will see in this Bible-based, cross-cultural book, God's word shows us how to move beyond our hurts and enter into his peace.
The insights in Healing Life's Hurts offer you freedom from hurt feelings
Whatever your situation, and no matter how sensitive a person you may be, you can learn how to have a victorious attitude and live a joyful life. Jesus said:
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. (John 14:27)
I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. (John 15:11)
The same practical, biblical truths that have helped thousands of people can help you when you are wounded by your parents, friends, a boyfriend or girlfriend, spouse, teachers, fellow students, coworkers, your peer group, or others, May God speak to your heart as you read this Bible-based Christian book, and may he bring his truth alive in you.
This book is practical, reader-friendly, and cross-cultural
Healing Life's Hurts is great for small groups as well as individuals. "Make it personal" questions are scattered throughout its pages. Guidelines for small group leaders are included at the back of this book.

One Salt Lake County community will soon become home to a shelter that it hadn't counted on a month ago.
It might wind up being the state's largest homeless facility after the planned closure of a shelter at 210 S. Rio Grande St. It might house the population most associated with violent crime: men. And municipal officials might not have any choice but to roll out the welcome mat.
Majority Whip Francis Gibson's HB441 would allow the state's Homeless Coordinating Committee to trump zoning and other city ordinances when it sites a county shelter March 30.
That's a "clear preemption of generally accepted land-use responsibilities," said Roger Tew, interim director of the Utah League of Cities and Towns.

We study semi-analytically and numerically the photon yield of high harmonic generation (HHG) on the level of the single atom response under ideal conditions: no initial depletion of the ground state prior to the main peak of the pump pulse. We show that the yield decreases exponentially as function of the cutoff energy starting at about 0.5keV in the case of a Ti:sapphire source and a helium target. We show that the yield in helium beyond the 1keV energy range can be increased by orders of magnitude when long wavelength driver sources in the range from 1.5µm to 3µm are used. This finding leads to the conclusion that significant HHG beyond 1keV is possible through long wavelength driver pulses.

Israel is endangered today as it has never been before. The Turkish-Hamas flotilla two weeks ago precipitated a number of dangerous developments. Rather than attend to all of them, Israel's leadership is devoting itself almost exclusively to contending with the least dangerous among them while ignoring the emerging threats with the potential to lead us to great calamities.
Since the Navy's lethal takeover of the Mavi Marmara, Israel has been stood before an international diplomatic firing squad led by the UN and Europe and supported by the Obama administration. Firmly backed by European and largely unopposed by Washington, the UN is moving swiftly towards setting up a new Goldstone- style anti-Israel kangaroo court. That canned tribunal will rule that Israel has no right to defend itself and attempt to force Israel to end its lawful naval blockade of Hamas-controlled Gaza.
Fearing this outcome, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu bowed to US President Barack Obama's demand that Israel set up an Israeli inquest of the Mavi Marmara takeover and permit foreigners to oversee its proceedings.
Netanyahu also agreed to scale back Israel's blockade significantly, and allow international bodies to have a role in its far more lax enforcement. Netanyahu has made these concessions with the full knowledge that they will strengthen Hamas in the hopes that they would weaken the international onslaught against Israel.
Unfortunately, it took no time at all to see that his hopes were misplaced. Even before Netanyahu announced these concessions, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon already announced that they make no difference to him or to his friends in Washington and Brussels.
They will move ahead with their plans to appoint a new kangaroo court charged with asserting that Israel has no right to defend itself.
Receive email alerts
AS BAD as all of this is, in truth, it is unimportant relative to the other consequences of the flotilla incident. The impact of the diplomatic campaign now being waged against Israel will be felt in the medium and long term. In the immediate term, Israel is facing two threats that dwarf what it faces from the UN.
Recent statements by the leaders of Iran, Turkey, Syria, Hamas and Hizbullah make clear that the members of the Iranian axis view the Mavi Marmara episode as a strategic victory in their ongoing campaign against Israel. The international stampede against Israel at the UN, the White House and throughout Europe exposed Israel's Achilles heel. The Mavi Marmara demonstrated that on the one hand the IDF cannot enforce its blockade of Gaza without the use of force. On the other hands it taught Israel's enemies that by forcing Israel to use force, Iran, Turkey and their allies incited a UN-EU-US lynch mob against Israel.
Iran, Turkey, Syria, Hamas and Hizbullah are moving rapidly to exploit their new discovery.
In the very near future, Israel will face off against Iranian, Lebanese and Turkish ships complemented by ships full of Israel-hating German Jews and other Jewish and non-Jewish Hamas supporters.
The Mavi Marmara showed Iran and its allies that they can win strategic victories against Israel by giving the IDF no option other than using force against them. This means that Israel can bank on the prospect that all the ships they are dispatching will be populated by suicide protesters. Indeed the Iranians have openly admitted this. Mohammad Ali Nouraee is one of the regime officials involved in dispatching the Iranian ships to the Gaza coast. In an interview this week with Iran's official IRNA news agency, Nouraee said that the passengers aboard the ships "are willing to become martyred in this way."
The Lebanese ships are being organized by Hizbullah-affiliated individuals and the Turkish ships are being organized by the IHH terror group that organized the Mavi Marmara.
Hizbullah's penchant for dispatching suicide squads is of course well known. And the IHH showed its devotion to suicide protests on the Mavi Marmara. So it is fairly clear that the passengers aboard the ships from both countries intend to force the IDF to kill them.
The intensification of the suicide protest campaign against Israel is dangerous for two reasons.
First, it is a model that can be and in all likelihood will be replicated on air and land and it can be replicated anywhere. Israel can and should expect mobs of suicide protesters marching on Gaza to force Israel to surrender control over its borders. Israel can expect mobs of suicide protesters marching on Israeli embassies and other government installations around the world in an attempt to increase its diplomatic isolation.
In the air, Israel can expect charter flights to take off from airports around the world with a few dozen kamikaze protesters who will force the IAF to shoot them down as they approach Israeli airspace.
Iran and its allies have found a weak chink in Israel's armor. They will use it any way they can.
Israel needs to quickly develop tactics and strategies for contending with this.
THE SECOND and far more dangerous implication of Israel's enemies' aggressive adoption of suicide protests is that by ensuring violence will be used, they increase the chances of war.
Indeed, Iran and its allies clearly believe that suicide protests are a vehicle for initiating a fullscale war against Israel on what they view as favorable footing. According to Bahrain's Al Wasat press service, Hussain Amir, Iran's ambassador to Bahrain, threatened this week that, "If the [Zionist] entity dares to direct any aggressive attack [against the Iranian ships], then it is certain that [Israel] will be met by a much stronger and firm blow."
Syrian President Bashar Assad told the BBC Wednesday that the region is moving towards war. And the Turkish government is continuing to escalate its assaults on Israel. On Thursday Turkey threatened to cut off diplomatic relations with Israel if Israel does not issue a formal apology for its takeover of the Mavi Marmara and pay restitution to the families of the terrorists killed on board the ship.
Obviously the most disturbing aspect of the war threats is the specter of Turkish naval vessels attacking the Israel Navy. If Turkey - a NATO member - participates in a war against Israel, the repercussions for Israel's relations with NATO member states, including the US, as well as the EU, are liable to be unprecedented.
While going to war against Israel would be a major gamble for Turkey, in recent years it has not shied away from high stakes challenges to its NATO allies. Indeed, one of Turkey's ruling AKP party's first actions upon taking power in 2003 was to deny the US military the right to invade Iraq from its territory. The deleterious impact of Turkey's refusal to come to the aid of its NATO ally at the time has been felt by US forces in Iraq ever since.
IN THE days and weeks to come, Israel's political and military leaders must move resolutely to prepare to withstand these new threats that have arisen in the aftermath of the Mavi Marmara episode. To meet the expected deluge of suicide protesters on sea, land and air, Israel must immediately acquire non-lethal means to disperse these protests. This involves purchasing and producing tear gas, water cannons, rubber bullets and other non-lethal weaponry.
These non-lethal weapons must be rapidly distributed to IDF units deployed along the frontier with Gaza and to the navy. They must also be supplied to Israeli security teams tasked with protecting government installations worldwide.
Forces must undergo intense and immediate training in crowd control and mob dispersal to be ready to meet what is clearly on the way.
Diplomatically, Israel needs to hold its new line on the Gaza blockade. Netanyahu's buckling to US-EU-UN pressure has encouraged them to redouble their assault on Israel. The new line must be held at all costs. Otherwise, Israel will have no diplomatic line of defense as the approaching threats become reality.
Strategically, our leaders need to consider what our aims will be in the coming war. For instance, as far as Turkey is concerned, Israel's aim will be to end the war as quickly as possible.
Here the tools of diplomacy with NATO members and public diplomacy with the American people will be crucial to convincing Turkey to stand down. They must be aggressively and energetically utilized without delay.
From a military perspective, evasion is preferable to confrontation. This understanding must guide naval operations towards Turkish forces.Read Full Article »

Foxfire 10
In 1966, in the Appalachian Mountains' of Northeast Georgia, a group of teachers and their students founded a quarterly magazine that they named Foxfire, after a phosphorescent lichen, in 1972, several articles from the magazine were published in book form and the acclaimed Foxfire series was born. Almost thirty years later, the books continue to teach a philosophy of simplicity in living that is truly enduring in its appear. Much more than "how to" books, the Foxfire series is a publishing phenomenon and a way of life, teaching creative self-sufficiency, the art of natural remedies, home crafts, and other country folkways, fascinating to everyone interested in rediscovering the virtues of simple life
This tenth volume celebrates the heritage and history of Appalachia, including sections on old folklore, the early role of the railroad in Appalachia communities, building and technology from the Depression to the present, as well as a variety of the kind of spirited firsthand narrative accounts from Appalachian community members that exemplify the Foxfire style.

It's around 9.30 pm Bali time and along with Putu, our guide for today, we finally arrived at Bali airport..ready to depart to Korea.Thank you, Putu.
The last time I went to Bali, this terminal was still under development..but now..this new modern terminal greeted us.
Since it's new, I got to make sure that I knew where to go for our smooth departure to Korea. It's comparatively bigger compared to the previous one.
But..first thing first, we got to re-arrange our cabin baggage:-)
Ready for departure....
Before immigration process, we had a chance to look around and...well..
we needed to have our dinner....^^
Indonesian nasi goreng and well...what the kids loved...**
Bye-bye, Indonesia. See you again next year. Amin.

External Transportation Funding Opportunities
Best Practices
Long Range Transportation
The professionals who manage the National Park Service transportation program are the custodians of a vast transportation system that includes approximately 5,500 miles of paved roads, 4,100 miles of unpaved roads, 1,442 bridges, 63 Tunnels and 131 alternative transportation systems (e.g., buses, trolleys, ferries and trams) in 66 park units.
Roadways and bridges provide critical access to and within the parks, increasing park visitor enjoyment and safety, but also providing travel routes for thousands of commuters, business travelers, park vendors, and the general public.
The transportation infrastructure represents an enormous financial value; the system of paved roads and bridges alone represent a Federal investment of more than $20 billion dollars. And that investment must be protected by continued maintenance.
Nationwide, 408 National Park units cover more than 84 million acres. Access to and travel within these special places is made possible by the NPS transportation system.

Two weeks ago I gave an introductory tutorial on "From Code Smells to Unit Tests" (pdf) at Agile Tour Toronto (thanks to the organizers for a great conference). The slides presented an introduction to Technical Debt, SOLID Principles, The Sea of Complexity, Basic Code Smells, Refactoring and Unit Testing Basics, and Good Practices, Bad Practices. As usual, the slides were only taste of what was said. In the session, two elements didn't work: First, I wasn't expecting to have to explain SOLID Principles—I was caught off guard and was ill prepared. Second, the pair Refactoring Demo tanked. The plan was to invite audience members up to refactor Martin Fowler's Movie Example (git hub browseable, zip file) and then they would make small improvements five minutes at a time.The goal was to help people integrate what we had already covered in the seminar by doing it live. There has to be another way of providing an integration event. Basically, I would need to give the audience a way for experiencing refactoring for themselves.
Please try the Movie Example (git hub browseable, zip file) and see how far you can get with some simple refactorings.
- The Art of Unit Testing: with Examples in .NET (Amazon.ca) – Roy Osherove (.NET and soon a Java version)
- Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Code (Amazon.ca) – Martin Fowler
- Refactoring to Patterns (Amazon.ca) – Joshua Kerievsky
- xUnit Test Patterns: Refactoring Test Code (Amazon.ca) – Gerard Meszaros
- Pragmatic Unit Testing in C# with NUnit(Amazon.ca) – Andy Hunt and Dave Thomas
- Pragmatic Unit Testing in Java with JUnit (Amazon.ca) – Andy Hunt and Dave Thomas
BTW David Koontz did the hard work of typing in Martin Fowler's Movie sample – I just modernized it (Java 1.2 –> 1.6).
Caveat Emptor – if you buy any of the books after clicking on my link I get 4% of the price. In all likelihood that means I might be able to afford a coffee or two.

Haha … I was at Microsoft Tech Days for the last two days. One of the presentations was on SOLID for ASP MVC. It's been years since I looked at SOLID and I realized I largely don't agree with it. The SOLI rules conflict and it essentially boils down to D, which can be paraphrased as "use a dependency injection container for all API classes". Don't even get me started on Dependency Injection which is just a bastardization of the proper Gang of Four 'Strategy' pattern.
But, blanket DI itself is wrong, of course, because it violates a higher priority idiom than SOLID, which is YAGNI and ends up creating GOD classes all over the place.
Left me feeling sad and a little dirty.

Michelle Williams was seen taking her 7-year-old daughter (whose father is the late Heath Ledger) to a play date in Studio City, Calif. on Monday morning, just one night after she attended the 2012 Academy Awards as a nominee. Matilda was all smiles as Michelle doted on her like the loving mother she is.
Mom first, actress second — and we love that about her!
This casual look Michelle was sporting is deftly different than the glamorous Louis Vuitton gown she was sporting on Sunday, but she still managed to look cute and casual!
