Now The Living Dead Dolls welcome the tormented youth into their family with a new doll that is sure to make heads spin.

Experimental and theoretical/numerical investigations of thin films bonding strength
Measurement of interface properties is not new in the thin film and coatings technology. However most of the available techniques provide only a rough measure of the strength of interfaces. Such interface strength between thin coatings and substrates is effectively investigated by a pulsed laser induced spallation technique, utilizing shock waves produced by an energy pulse of short duration, and coupled with simultaneous measurement of the spalled film free surface velocity by means of a laser-Doppler-interferometry device (VISAR). The great advantage of this approach is that it is the only method by which the strength of adhesion of a thin film, as well as its modulus of elasticity, can be evaluated accurately and unambiguously. Experimental data are compared against theoretical/numerical results for the generated stress pulse based on the solution of appropriate equations of state implemented in a hydro-dynamic FEM code and are found to be in good agreement.

Directory of the city of Chicago, Illinois for 1843
[Source: Directory of the City of Chicago, Illinois for 1843; Compiled by Robert Fergus, Printer, A Resident of Chicago since July 1, 1839
Chicago: Fergus Printing Company, NW Cor. Illinois St and Dearborn Ave; 1896]
From August to December, 1843
Transcribed by K. Torp, ©2007
THE cordial reception and flattering endorsements given in 1876 to the Directory for 1839, by many of Chicago's oldest, well-known, and best-informed citizens, induced the compiler to undertake and to complete this little volume, begun over twenty years since, with the hope that it may be as well received.
The occupations given herein of many is no criterion as to their ability to follow other vocations. A graduate of Oxford, Eaton, Dublin, or Harvard, a lawyer without acquaintance, a poet, artist, and many similar professions would at that time find it difficult to obtain a livelihood, as all such were of very little use in our then embryo city.
The basis for this work was Chicago's first Directory of 1844, printed and published by Ellis & Fergus, from a careless and indifferent canvass made during 1843-August to December, by James W. Norris, and issued in December of that year.
One of the publishers, William Ellis who did the presswork of that volume, has been dead several years; the other is still here, and as he set the type, he knows how much he did for it and how much worse it would have been had he followed copy; but having been here over four years, he was somewhat acquainted with the business people in and about the business centre and in the vicinity of his home; the others-newcomers and those outside of the central part-he could do nothing for; and, as he later discovered, sailors were made tailors, and tailors sailors, names were spelled at and locations guessed, etc.; in fact, the names of many prominent men were entirely omitted, or as inserted might as well have been, as those for whom they were intended could not recognize them.
Some of the dates of death, as herein given, have been found to conflict with those of interested parties and relatives; but so far, in every instance, on investigation they have been found to be correct. The identity of the dates of many of those known to be dead has been difficult, and several instances have occurred where more than one date applies to the same name, and until identified will not be inserted.
That all errors are now corrected, all omitted names inserted, or that new errors have not been made, is not claimed; but, with the additions and alterations herein made, it is believed to be very much improved; and if those who can will assist in this labor of love by forwarding as early as possible for the next edition any correction or error they may discover or any omission they may know of, they will no doubt have the thanks of posterity, but certainly those of your humble servant,
ROBERT FERGUS, Compiler.

Population of the City of Chicago
According to the Census taken by Jas. W. Norris, August 1, 1843, under the authority of the Common Council; together with a comparison of this with the census of former periods.
Remarks. - The following census was taken with great care and accuracy, all persons not permanently residing in the City being in every instance excluded. The population of the place might have been made much larger than it appears to be by the result of this census, undoubtedly 8500 by including a class of transitory persons, which it is customary to compute as a part of the population of cities; but it was thought advisable to base the present census upon a permanent foundation; the census of subsequent periods will then show the actual amount of increase. By transitory persons are to be understood persons not having a permanent residence in either of the wards of the City, and persons living here but absent for the time being- by natives of other countries, those actually born abroad, and not their descendants, who are included among the natives of this country. It is proper to remark that a great increase of population has taken place since the date of this census. The present population exceeds 8000.

Capt. Seth Johnson, Deputy Collector and Inspector.
Revenue Office, 38 Clark Street.
The following tabular statements will exhibit, with an approach to accuracy, the amount and value of the trade of Chicago to the close of the present year, 1843. A very serious difficulty has existed heretofore in ascertaining the actual amount of exports and imports of the place, especially the exports, owing to the fact that a great many vessels arrive and depart during the season of navigation without being reported at the Custom-House, or leaving any evidence of the character and amount of their cargoes. The existence of this difficulty was more particularly set forth in a memorial of the Common Council to Congress, in the year 1840, in which they allow a deduction of one-third from the amount known, to be added for the amount unknown. It has been thought advisable in the following statement to give only the actual amount, as ascertained from record in the revenue office, it being understood, from the above explanation, that the estimate is considerably below the true amount:

Being ourself a medical man, we may be permitted to say that we are acquainted with Dr. Egan, and know him to be a man of science and of high standing in his profession. We take him to be above quackery, and are confident he would not, if he could, palm a useless "nostrum upon the public for the sake of paltry gain. The Sarsaparilla has long been celebrated for its restorative and renovating effects in chronic disease, and there is no doubt that Dr. Egan has succeeded in giving a more effective and successful combination than it has before received.

Pan-Roasted Carrots with Crispy Sage

There are three reasons why I love this recipe: These days, I love anything with crispy sage. It requires approximately six minutes of actual attention.

Overnight Chicken Soup: Parents Need to Eat, Too

Overnight Chicken Soup? What? How? If you're a regular reader, you can probably guess what I'm going to say: Make it in the slow cooker.

Three months ago we purchased the Bushnell 8MP Trophy Cam Standard Edition.
We thought it would be good to be able to "watch" the entrance to our land as we are not there every day. It is not a security camera, but it would document someone coming or going if we experienced any issues. We also thought it would be nice to see if it really was deer that was eating our apple trees we planted. But also, well I just really had been wanting one for a while now.
We decided on the Bushnell brand because our oldest got one for Christmas a couple of years ago and really liked his. I looked around at the various wildlife cameras online and the price was comparable to other brands. So, I purchased a newer model of the version he had from amazon. I won't bother to list out all of the specs here. You can check out all of the specific details on amazon.
When it arrived, we played with it and tested it out at the house in the back yard for about a week with the chickens and the dog. It really is extremely easy to setup and use. It has multiple options to modify the picture size, video length, picture and video interval, motion sensitivity, etc. Once we were satisfied we knew how to use it and that it worked properly, we set it up at out at the land.
This camera takes black and white photos/videos at night and color photos/videos during the day. In the menu you have to choose if you want to shoot video or photos. We have played with both. The motion sensor works really well. We found that on windy days, we had tons of pictures because the camera had been placed low enough to capture the motion of the tall grass blowing back and forth. Be sure to be cognizant of your placement so you do not have hundreds of empty photos where the grass or limbs are moving.
Here are few examples of the photos that it has captured. We have very few during the day. Apparently, all the action is at night time.
Video can be set in a few different lengths and intervals. Ours is set to record video for 10 seconds. The video also includes sound, but in most of our videos the only sound is the rustling of grass and trees.
We have been very pleased with the camera and have numerous pictures and videos of deer around our apple trees. If you are in the market for a wilderness camera this one will not disappoint. Bushnell also has a few other models with less mega pixels if you are wanting to not spend as much.
Along with the camera we also purchased:

I love soap and glory and the different body products they provide along with the sweet, girly fruity scents they leave my skin.
I have never used their shampoo and condition before but after Christmas and I got one of the s&g gift sets. The one I got came with a travel size shampoo but not the conditioner so I went and got one from boots which was only £2.50.
The shampoo had a sweet sceant and lathored up well like others I had used from the drugstore and the conditioner was thick but not overly thick and again carried the same sweet fruity smell.
However once dry my hair didn't feel as clean as well as my scalp, my mid-lengths and ends felt soft but nothing special. The smell lingered on my hair for the rest of the day but I could not smell it the following day.
The conditioner is said to leave your hair glossy but I didn't notice much gloss just softness.
I used it again 2 days later and again if made my hair feel unclean so unfortunately I won't be using this again.
Have you tried the shampoo and conditioner? what did you think of it?
As always thank you so much for reading :)

Young Nats support current drinking age
5 August 2004
Young Nats support current drinking age
"The drinking age should remain at 18, no exceptions," says New Zealand Young Nationals Chairman, Jamie Simpson.
"Lack of responsibility by parents, and individuals making poor choices are why more young people are going to drink, regardless of the legal age. These are the real problems that need addressing. Increasing the age to 20 is not the solution.
"The Progressives, NZ First, and United Future are wrong in their calls for the drinking age to be raised. They must look deeper, into issues relating to parenting, New Zealand's drinking culture, and most importantly - enforcement," says Mr Simpson.
"Both the sellers of alcohol and the buyers need to take more responsibility and be held accountable for their actions."
These comments are made in light of a recent Massey University study showing some Auckland bottle shops, supermarkets and grocery stores were not asking for identification.
"The revised drinking age law was introduced in 1999 to bring New Zealand into line with other age-based rights that we have in our country," says Jamie Simpson
"There are much bigger issues affecting young people in this country, such as, the 'P' epidemic, growing student debt, and the uncertain future created by a Government that treats people differently on the basis of their race," says Mr Simpson.

Disgruntled Villa fans waiting in vain for French connection
Aston Villa, who host West Bromwich Albion on Saturday after an anaemic 3-0 defeat by Liverpool, could drop into the relegation zone at the weekend. Is this a short-term problem, down to injuries, or is Gérard Houllier more interested in Liverpool than his present club?
Houllier is only a couple of players away from having his favoured Villa XI available to him. In mitigation, the litany of absentees over the past two months — up to 12 — has undermined confidence and continuity. Emile Heskey, who briefly hit top form upon Houllier's appointment in September, and Nigel Reo-Coker, who adds tenacity and athleticism, could return imminently, although Stiliyan Petrov, his composed midfield authority badly missed, is out until February.
Houllier's love-in with Liverpool on Monday…
