I wonder if anyone has ever thought of privatizing Miller Park. I say this from strictly an economic angle.
The park costs the city money, about $250,000 per year, unless the budget is amended to cover said costs. By cutting the budget by $250,000, economic stimulus would soon follow.
In response to Mr. DeWitt's recent letter to the editor regarding the Taylor County Board of Education, I would like to set the record straight by answering the questions asked in his letter.
First, I have served for the past 20 years on the Taylor County Board of Education and have had the pleasure to work with two excellent superintendents. Both men deserved the money they earned.
Since your comments centered on our current superintendent, I will focus on him.
As some already know, there's a highly addictive illicit drug, heroin, in our community. If this brings to mind scenes from some large city, think again.
Ask our local officials, law enforcement or your health care provider and they will confirm there has been a dramatic increase in the use of this dangerous drug.
Why the increase in heroin you might ask? Of course, there's never a simple answer to a drug problem, but there's two possible thoughts on this.
Can the taxpayers of Taylor County afford to give Roger Cook a $40,000 increase in his salary? No superintendent in the Taylor County school system has ever come close to $160,000 per year salary.
Mr. Davis, the board chairman, said it was not an increase of $40,000, but any way you add it up, the difference between $160,000 and $120,000 is $40,000, according to my Taylor County school education. I think if Mr. Cook were to ask Mr. Davis to jump over Niagara Falls in a barrel, he would run for the Canadian border.
We, as a Sunday school class at Green River Memorial Baptist Church, would like to commend councilman Stan McKinney for taking a stand against the sale of alcohol on Sundays or anything that promotes or encourages the use of alcohol.
We hope our other county and city leaders will follow his choice.
Thank you, Stan McKinney! We need more Christian leaders like you. Grace Wilson Pat Marcum Norma Jean Rogers Betty Stearman Campbellsville
I was very disappointed to see that some churches have chosen not to take a stand against the homosexual agenda that has recently reared its head in the Boy Scouts.
Mr. Sanford's comment about being surprised that "the possibility of a policy change captured so much attention" demonstrates that there is a disconnect with reality. A policy change that contradicts the very belief system that the organization was founded upon SHOULD draw attention!
A big thank you to the residents of Campbellsville. During the month of May, Super Wash car washes across the country participated in an annual food raiser. A portion of the proceeds is donated to local food pantries.
We are thrilled to announce the national donations totaled $54,735. A donation has been made in the amount of $199.50 to your local food pantry.
Thanks Campbellsville for your patronage, which resulted in this donation.
If you follow the headlines, you know that sexual abuse happens. It happens often and close to home. This reality can be overwhelming, but it's important to remember that sexual abuse can be prevented when all community members play our part.
March is Sexual Assault Awareness Month in Kentucky, and this March, communities across the state are standing up for sexual assault prevention by proclaiming "It's time ... to talk about it!"
I was honored to join Taylor County Judge/Executive Eddie Rogers, Rep. John "Bam" Carney, R-Campbellsville, many other elected officials and members of the community for the standing room only Legislative Coffee event on Jan. 17 in Taylor County.
As elected officials, hearing the concerns of our constituents is vital to us as we weigh a wide range of important issues, both locally and at the state level.
Each January, we remember with sadness the day the Supreme Court handed down legislation that legalized abortion on demand in the historic cases known as Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton.
Since then almost 56 million human babies have been brutally killed, torn apart limb by limb with surgical tools. Today and every day in the United States, more than 3,000 babies will be deprived of their right to life as they are murdered in their mother's womb.

Audio and Video Streaming for the Masses
Linux has garnered much attention in the mainstream press recently. Such publicity has been both a boon to Linux enthusiasts and advocates, and a source of curiosity to those who may just be learning of this marvelous operating system. I am very encouraged to see Linux growing in popularity. It's always pleasing, however, to see this popular media attention complemented by concrete examples of Linux in everyday use. As one of those fortunate individuals who gets paid for his passion, I would like to provide one such concrete example by sharing details of how we use Linux at Global Media Corporation.
Global Media Corporation (http://www.globalmedia.com/) is a publicly traded company that has built a private network for the transmission of live audio and video over the Internet. For Network Associates who want to stream their content and/or offer merchandise through electronic commerce, we provide a ready-made infrastructure based on Linux.
I work on the Network Engineering team (see Figure 1) where Linux is the heart and soul of what we do. Credit for this commitment to Linux goes to Marco Belmonte, our Technical Lead. When the Powers That Be were planning the whole project, Marco told them of Linux. He showed them how Linux would provide a reliable, scalable, flexible network and be cost-effective. We haven't looked back.
To broadcast over the Internet, we send a Linux box to the Network Associate. This is most often a radio station, but can be anyone with an audio source. The box is connected to our Network Operations Centre (NOC) and to an Internet access point over our private frame-relay lines. From the NOC, we can monitor, control, configure and update all the remote stations.
The boxes consist of Intel Celeron-400 chips on Abit socket 370 ZM6 motherboards with 64MB of RAM. The motherboards are equipped with Winbond monitors to ensure we can detect intrusion and track temperatures, voltages and fan speeds. This is important so that we can ward off problems that might cause the box to crash—no broadcaster likes dead air. The audio feed enters the box through a SoundBlaster 128 card. The encoded signal leaves the box through a Sangoma S508/FT1 WAN card. A 14.4 Hayes-compatible modem allows us to carry out emergency maintenance should something happen to the frame-relay connection.
This is a good moment to offer special recognition to Sangoma Technologies. As mentioned, Sangoma is the maker of the WAN cards (see Figure 2) we use to connect our boxes to the frame-relay network. Sangoma is also one of the few hardware manufacturers that has recognized and supported Linux from its earliest days. In the context of Global Media, this recognition is particularly appropriate, as they spent many hours adapting their software so we could configure their cards from a script rather than interactively.
Returning to our setup, the encoding boxes run a customized distribution of Linux. Since the machines would never have been used as workstations and only a few services were needed, the boxes were stripped down to core libraries and utilities. Added to this slimmed-down distribution were special configuration and monitoring scripts and the software for digitizing the audio signal.
To avoid the work of installing our distribution on every machine, the boxes are built from cloned disks. The cloning of disks and assembly of boxes is contracted out. The contractor ships a box to a new site after entering a unique identifier we specified. This identifier serves to configure the machine once it arrives at its destination.
Configuration is done over the wire by automated scripts. We chose this method for a number of reasons. First, as the boxes are shipped directly from the point of assembly, we have no opportunity to do the work ourselves. Second, security concerns dictated that we not provide elements of the configuration information to third parties. Next, we wanted the setup and operation of the box to be as simple as possible for our customer: they should only have to plug in the box and turn it on. Few clients, if any, would be comfortable running Linux commands on a text console. In addition, leaving this to the customer would increase the potential for typos and other related errors that would likely cost us many hours on the phone, trying to debug the problem. Finally, configuring machines by hand is drudgery best left to machines.
Automation ensures the boxes are configured and operational, both quickly and securely. Upon receipt of the box, the customer first attaches all the cables, then turns it on. From the boot scripts, a configuration client detects that the box has not yet been configured and contacts a configuration server in our NOC. Using the identifier sent by the remote box, the configuration server queries a PostgreSQL database to acquire all the appropriate information. Once the client has configured itself, it becomes part of our broadcast network. From that moment on, any audio coming into the box is available for listeners on the Net.
I mentioned we use private frame relay to pick up our audio signals. We could have simply used the Internet for this, but chose a private network in order to ensure the quality of the signal as far as possible along the path to the end listener. Using the Internet to gather our signals would have subjected us to congestion and competition for IP bandwidth. We would be forwarding to listeners an already degraded signal. We don't simply want to get listeners to their destination; we want to get them there in style.
RealNetworks—one of Global Media's partners—is our link to the Internet. RealNetworks relays our audio streams to their globally distributed network of servers. When a listener requests one of our URLs, RealNetworks determines the origin of the request and delivers the stream from the closest point. Thus, the portion of the total route that the requested stream has to travel over the Internet before reaching the user's player is reduced to a minimum. For the rest of the route, the stream travels over dedicated high-speed lines.
RealNetworks also provides us with the software that encodes the analog audio source (it runs on Linux) and the Global Media Player. RealPlayer and RealPlayer G2 can be used to listen to our streams, but the Global Media Player links the stream to the Network Associate's editorial content and storefront.
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Another Sign That I'm Completely Desperate for Baseball
Packers Fan Loses Job at Chicago Area Dealership
An employee of a car dealership in a Chicago suburb lost his job yesterday after arriving at work with a Green Bay Packers tie…
…it's not as one-sided as you think.
Webb Chevrolet in Oak Lawn, Illinois is a sponsor of Chicago Bears radio broadcasts. John Stone, now a former employee of the dealership, refused to take off his Packers tie when asked by his boss. The boss then gave him an ultimatum and asked him to choose between wearing the tie or keeping his job. Stone chose the former.
Jerry Roberts, the "boss" in this situation, is justified in his actions. Wearing a Packers tie the day after the Bears NFC Championship loss wouldn't necessarily rub customers the right way. That, combined with the fact that they have a sponsorship deal with Bears? Eh, not good for business.
So I take it a bow tie wouldn't have gone over well either?
Laviolette Keeps Flyers on Toes
Flyers coach Peter Laviolette doesn't want to see his team perform the way they did on December 20th against the Florida Panthers.
The 5-0 loss to a dismal Panthers team was the team's final game before their one-week break over the holiday season. They Flyers will get another week off for the All-Star break after tonight's game against the Montreal Canadiens at the Wells Fargo Center.
This time, "Lavs" will not let the Flyers falter in their second "getaway game" of the year.
Frank Seravalli of the Philadelphia Daily News wrote a piece on Laviolette who held a full practice yesterday, despite the fact that the team played two days in a row against New Jersey and at Chicago.
The coach, who is all business, had this to say.
"We didn't do very well last time we had a break," Laviolette said. "We talked about it briefly. All you can do is address things and bring it to [their] attention. It's a big game and an important game. We want to make sure we end it the right way."

DEL MAR, Calif. (AP) — Del Mar increased its on-track attendance and wagering during a shortened 37-day meeting, despite a battered economy.
Track officials attribute the upticks to the new five-day race week. Del Mar reduced its racing days because of fewer horses and the economic downturn.
The track located just north of San Diego averaged 17,181 fans a day, an increase of 7.4 percent over last year's daily average of 16,002 when the track raced six days a week. It was the track's highest average since 1987, when 19,685 fans showed up daily.
On-track handle averaged $2,292,284 per day, an increase of 5.8 percent over last year's daily average of $2,167,028.
The track's overall daily average handle — including both on and off-track sources — was $13,040,206, an increase of 0.3 percent from last year's daily average of $13,005,906.

Lapsang Souchong (loose leaf)
A strong, golden tea with a very distinctive smoked character.
Lapsang Souchong tea comes from China's Fujian Province and Taiwan. The unique flavour of Lapsang Souchong is produced by lying the leaves out on bamboo trays and allowing smoke from pinewood to permeate through them. Twinings Lapsang Souchong is an adventurous tea with a unique smoke flavour and a dark rich colour. Drink with or without milk.

I understand the notion that whiskies that are around the 46% abv mark and above tend to have more flavour than your 40% equivalent. I understand that more alcohol content means more flavour held in the spirit.
However, why is it most will add many teaspoons to reduce it down to around 35-40%? Aren't we just missing the point? Many whiskies I've tried at around 50%-60% just need a small drop/splash of water to open it up, but I don't usually find myself adding teaspoons as I find that I soon start to lose the flavour.
I know every whisky is not the same (and I am missing something here) so please someone enlighten me!

A combination of small and medium size static fermenters have been used, with a fermentation cycle of between eight to twelve days. The natural or wild yeasts present on the grape skins were allowed to initiate the sugar fermentation. Cultured winery yeasts were then added to complete this process. The majority of parcels were then run to barrel, however select parcels remained on skins post fermentation for 1-2 weeks. The result is a wine with excellent depth of colour, richness and complexity. Dense black purpley red in colour with an aroma exhibiting a mix of fresh briary almost blackcurrant tones, balanced with violets and dark plums, finishing with an earthy, savoury complexity. The palate is full bodied demonstrating Barossa Valley hallmarks of richness, density and concentration. Silky fruit complexity is the key here with both red and dark jubey flavours. The palate finishes with fine, earthy tannins. Try with a rare rib eye steak.

A month after entering New Jersey's U.S. Senate race, Newark Mayor Cory Booker remains far ahead of his rivals for the Democratic nomination.
A Quinnipiac University poll released Tuesday showed Booker at 52% among New Jersey Democratic voters - more than forty points ahead of his closest rival, U.S. Rep. Frank Pallone, who stood at 10%. A third competitor in the Democratic primary, U.S. Rep. Rush Holt, was at 8%.
Booker announced his bid at the beginning of June for the special election held to fill the remainder of the late Sen. Frank Lautenberg's term, which ends January 2015.
Following Lautenberg's death, Republican Gov. Chris Christie appointed an interim senator, Republican state Attorney General Jeffrey Chiesa, to hold the seat until the special election in October. Contestants will compete in party primaries on August 13.
An election to a full six-year term will take place in November 2014.
Polled against the top Republican candidate, former Bogota, New Jersey, Mayor Steve Lonegan, Booker holds a 53%-30% advantage.
"It looks as if the speculation was right: Newark Mayor Cory Booker seems to be a shoo-in for the U.S. Senate," Maurice Carroll, the director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute, said Tuesday.
The Quinnipiac University poll was conducted July 2-7 by telephone from 1,068 New Jersey voters. The sampling error was plus or minus 3 percentage points.

Bureau of Consumer Protection
Office of the Director
October 4, 1999
Ms. Anne Wilkins, Coordinator
EnerGuide Labeling and Rating Program
Appliances and HVAC
Office of Energy Efficiency
Natural Resources Canada
580 Booth Street
Ottawa, Ontario
The Bureau of Consumer Protection of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is pleased to respond to your request for comment on proposals from the EnerGuide Program of Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) to amend the EnerGuide labeling scales for refrigerators, refrigerator-freezers, and freezers and to modify the EnerGuide label for major household appliances by adding estimated operating cost.(1) We appreciate your interest in our input and in the harmonization of the rules governing appliance labeling in our two countries. Our review indicates that the proposed revisions would significantly increase the minimal differences that currently exist between the United States and Canadian appliance energy labels. Although such differences are not in themselves necessarily problematic, the proposed changes could lead to consumer confusion and higher manufacturer compliance costs.
Labeling Scales for Refrigerators, Refrigerator-Freezers, and Freezers
Our understanding is that, under the current Canadian Energy Efficiency Regulations, labeling scales for refrigeration products are based on the product type descriptions that are prescribed in CAN/CSA C300-M91, which establishes seven types of refrigerators/refrigerator-freezers and three types of freezers. The types are further subdivided into increments of two cubic feet. These product types (and cubic foot increments) are virtually the same as the subcategories established in Appendices A1 through A8 and B1 through B3 of the FTC's Appliance Labeling Rule (the Rule), which form the basis for the labeling scales (or "ranges of comparability") established by the Rule for refrigeration products sold in the U.S. 16 C.F.R. Part 305.
NRCan proposes to alter this current structure for the labeling scales in one of two ways to simplify consumer comparison of the energy performance of different types of refrigerators. The first alternative would result in one category that would encompass all refrigerators and refrigerator-freezers, including all defrost types and all configurations and services. This category would further be broken down into increments of two cubic feet. Freezers would be grouped in two categories -- upright or chest -- also divided into increments of two cubic feet.
The second alternative would group refrigerators and refrigerator-freezers into three subcategories -- manual defrost, partial automatic defrost and automatic defrost -- each encompassing all models with that type of defrost function, regardless of door configuration and services. Each subcategory would then be broken down according to size in increments of two cubic feet.
The FTC's Rule originally established only three categories for purposes of the ranges of comparability of refrigeration products -- refrigerators, refrigerator-freezers, and freezers -- each further subdivided into two-cubic-foot increments. The FTC's rationale was that consumers would see that the more efficient products (costing less to run) were simpler, and that there was an increased operating cost over time for products with certain features and configurations.
After the Rule had been in place for a number of years, representatives of an amalgam of different public interests - appliance manufacturers, consumer groups, utilities, etc. - asked the FTC to amend the Rule to have more feature-specific subcategories for refrigerators, refrigerator-freezers, and freezers. The representatives contended that consumers knew what features they wanted in a refrigeration product, and that consumers were not interested in knowing the energy use of models with features other than what they were seeking. The group recommended that the Rule be changed to include the subcategories in the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) energy conservation standard rule. In 1994, in connection with a comprehensive review of the Rule, the FTC established the current categories, which are based on the DOE rule.(2)
Our experience is that manufacturers produce a large number of different products within the categories currently used in the U.S. This suggests that manufacturers are responding to consumer interest in and demand for products with certain features. For example, in 1998, manufacturers submitted energy use data to the FTC for more than 3,600 models of refrigerators, refrigerator-freezers, and freezers, broken down as summarized below:
- Refrigerators with automatic defrost 36 models
- Refrigerators and refrigerator-freezers with manual defrost 343 models
- Refrigerator freezers with partial automatic defrost 45 models
- Refrigerator freezers with automatic defrost with top-mounted freezer without through-the-door ice service 1,680 models
- Refrigerator freezers with automatic defrost with side-mounted freezer without through-the-door ice service 261 models
- Refrigerator freezers with automatic defrost with bottom-mounted freezer without through-the-door ice service 36 models
- Refrigerator freezers with automatic defrost with top-mounted freezer with through-the-door ice service 4 models
- Refrigerator freezers with automatic defrost with side-mounted freezer with through-the-door ice service 506 models
- Upright freezers with manual defrost 232 models
- Upright freezers with automatic defrost 163 models
- Chest freezers and all other freezers 340 models
Each category is further divided into two-cubic-foot increments. Our figures show that within a particular category and size ranking there is often a significant range of energy use. For example, in the category for refrigerator/freezers with automatic defrost, top-mounted freezer, and no through-the-door ice service, there are 564 different models in the 16.5 to 18.4 cubic-foot range, with the low end of energy consumption at 518 kWh/yr. and the high end at 697 kWh/yr. This represents a spread of 35%. In the 22.5 to 24.4 cu. ft. range in this category, with a population of 59 models, the low end is 598 kWh/yr. and the high is 800 kWh/yr., which represents a spread of 34%. In the category of refrigerator-freezers with automatic defrost, side-mounted freezer, and through-the-door ice service, the 22.5 to 24.4 cu. ft. range, in which there are 111 models, shows a low end 685 of kWh/yr. and a high of 1000 kWh/yr., which represents a spread of 46%, and the 26.5 to 28.4 cu. ft. range with a population of 50 models, shows a low end of 735 kWh/yr. and a high of 1080 kWh/yr., representing a range of 47%.
We recognize that the number and type of products available in Canada may not be the same as in the U.S. These U.S. data, however, show that, within specific categories, the energy use of the products usually ranges widely. Consumers limiting their choices to models within one of these categories can, therefore, choose products based on energy usage in a meaningful fashion. The data you receive from manufacturers about models sold in Canada may reveal a similar pattern.
In any event, if NRCan decides to reduce the number of refrigeration product categories as outlined in its two alternatives, consumers on different sides of the Canadian/U.S. border will be presented with labeling scales for these products that are based on significantly different bases of information. These difference may confuse consumers in those instances where manufacturers find it most efficient to place both Canadian and U.S. labels on their products. Moreover, manufacturers marketing refrigeration products in both of our countries will have to develop information for scales on their labels that are significantly different for each country. This could impede our mutual goal of harmonizing our regulatory schemes to reduce burdens on manufacturers while providing consumers with meaningful information on which to make their purchasing decisions.(3)
The Addition of Estimated Operating Cost to the EnerGuide
NRCan also is proposing to amend the Energy Efficiency Regulations to change the EnerGuide for major household appliances to include an annual operating cost in conjunction with the annual energy consumption rating in kWh/year. The proposal included a sample EnerGuide containing the proposed additional operating cost information. We support NRCan's proposal in this regard; and we provide two specific comments to aid in the implementation of the proposal.
The FTC's Rule requires that EnergyGuides show both annual energy consumption (for the labeled model and as a range of energy consumption for all comparable models) and annual operating cost (for the labeled model only). The primary disclosure is in terms of energy consumption, as are the ranges of comparability relating to the labeled product. Estimated annual operating cost is a secondary disclosure, and appears at the bottom of the label together with the national average cost for the fuel type (electricity, natural gas, etc.) that runs the appliance. The FTC found, in connection with the1994 comprehensive amendments to the Rule mentioned above, that both of these disclosures, with energy consumption as the primary and operating cost as the secondary disclosure, would assist consumers in making purchasing decisions.(4)
First, in granting the FTC the authority to promulgate the Appliance Labeling Rule, the U.S. Congress directed that DOE establish the national average costs for fuel types each year, and that the operating cost information on EnergyGuides be based on these average costs. In addition, the FTC is required to reevaluate the ranges of comparability annually and to publish new ranges when they have changed significantly. When new ranges of comparability are published, manufacturers are required to produce new labels, which can often be costly. Manufacturers are not required, however, to change labels when only the national average fuel costs change. Because of these two requirements, there has occasionally been confusion among appliance manufacturers as to which average cost from which year to use to calculate operating cost on new labels. If NRCan would not change, on an annual basis, the national average cost it publishes for use in determining annual operating cost (absent some extreme degree of change in the price of the relevant fuel in Canada), this would avoid the type of confusion that sometimes occurs in the U.S.
Second, because annual operating cost on the U.S. EnergyGuide is a disclosure that is secondary to annual energy consumption, on which the ranges of comparability are based, it appears below the annual energy consumption and ranges on the label, rather than above it. While we recognize that determining the relative positioning of these two disclosures is difficult, and that there are merits to both approaches, we point out that adoption of the proposed location of the operating cost above the energy consumption and scales will result in further differences between our two labels.
We hope this comment is helpful. Please do not hesitate to telephone James Mills of the staff of the Division of Enforcement (at 202-326-3035) if you have any questions about this comment.

3. We also wanted to inform you that the FTC staff currently is considering whether to recommend that the FTC initiate a rulemaking proceeding to modify the categories in the Rule for refrigeration products to conform to changes in DOE's energy conservation standards rule. As you know, DOE announced changes to its categories for refrigeration products in the U.S. Federal Register dated April 28, 1997, to become effective on July 1, 2001. The changes will result in eight additional categories to include compact refrigerators, refrigerator-freezers, and freezers.

Michael Hickner
Associate Professor of Materials Science and Engineering
310 Steidle Building
(814) 867-1847
Research Group Website
Mike Hickner received a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from Michigan Technological University (Michigan Tech) and a M.S. and Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech). In graduate school he worked under the direction of James E. McGrath and also spent time at Los Alamos National Laboratory. Before joining Penn State as an Assistant Professor in 2007, he was a postdoc and subsequently became a staff member at Sandia National Laboratories. Professor Hickner's research and teaching interests include all aspects of polymeric materials, polymer micro- and nano-structure, transport characterization, spectroscopy, electrochemistry, and new materials for energy applications.
Research in the Hickner group probes the connection between the molecular identity, nanophase structure, and the resulting transport properties in polymeric materials. Our activities are motivated by application-specific needs that drive fundamental investigations into new materials chemistry and demand incisive measurements of the structure and transport properties of novel materials. We characterize technologically important materials and synthesize model materials systems to probe specific structural and property questions.
A significant thrust in our group is directed towards the study of ion-containing polymers that form robust membranes and absorb water. These types of materials are the basic functional units of solid-state electrochemical systems such as fuel cells and electrolyzers and enable water treatment technologies such as nanofiltration and reverse osmosis. The binding and diffusion of the absorbed water internal to the membrane structure and the interactions between the polymer, ions, and water are important aspects of these materials which ties the transport properties to the nano-scale and molecular features.
We employ tools such as impedance spectroscopy, NMR, TEM, AFM, vibrational spectroscopy, calorimetry, and scattering to probe the structure and transport in multiphase polymeric materials. Our team is composed of a diverse group of materials scientists, chemists, and engineers with wide ranging skills in synthesis, advanced experimental technique development, and analytical analysis. Ultimately, the goal of our group's work is to have impact on novel applications of polymer membranes and to uncover the fundamental factors that influence the structure and resulting properties of polymeric materials.

(814) 863-2980
Professor Manias received his B.S. degree in Physics from the Aristotle U in Thessaloniki, Greece, and his Ph.D. in Chemistry from U. of Groningen, the Netherlands. He subsequently carried out postdoctoral research in the Materials Science and Engineering department at Cornell U, before joining Penn State as an assistant professor in 1998. His research combines theoretical, simulation, and experimental approaches focused on explaining how nanoscale structures affect the macroscopic materials properties in multi-phase polymer systems, and on further designing appropriate structures and functionalities that lead to high-performance novel materials.
Professor Manias' research focuses on the development of new high performance polymer and polymer-composite materials, with approaches spanning the range from basic-science fundamentals to engineering development of materials designed for specific applications. All of these research efforts exploit the unique opportunities of nanoscale structures and nanoscopic components in polymer and organic materials.
More specifically, examples of recent work in Professor Manias' research group include: (a) development of high performance polymer/inorganic nanocomposites, involving synthesis, processing, fundamental physics, and engineering design approaches; (b) atomic force microscopy (AFM) studies of polymer surfaces and polymer nanostructures, including he development of new state-of-the-art instruments and modifications of AFM modes of operation; (c) fundamental understanding of nanoscopically confined polymer electrolytes and lubricants, based on molecular modeling; and (d) design and syntheses of smart polymers that respond to external stimuli –such as temperature, electric fields, and pH– and applications of these smart materials in biomedical and surface applications.
A unique feature of Manias' research group approach in its investigations is the concurrent in-depth employment of polymer physics, molecular modeling computer simulations, synthetic chemistry, and engineering approaches –design, processing, characterization, structure-property relations, and application-driven materials development. The feedback and cross-fertilization between fundamental science, computer modeling, and engineering approaches offers unprecedented opportunities for fast progress in research, and to date has yielded diverse results that were featured in eminent scientific journals of physics, polymers, and engineering, new technologies that were patented, and new advances in materials that were featured in popularized-science books and magazines.

Professor of Materials Science and Engineering
325 Steidle Bldg.
(814) 863-1394
Professor Chung obtained his B. S. in Chemistry from Chung Yuan University (Taiwan) in 1976. He came to the U. S. for his graduate study in the Department of Chemistry, University of Pennsylvania in 1979. After finishing his Ph.D work in 1982 on conducting polymers (with Professor A. J. MacDiarmid, Nobel Laureate), he spend two years as a Research Scientist at Institute for polymers and Organic Solids (with Professor Alan J. Heeger, Nobel Laureate), University of California, Santa Barbara. Between 1984 and 1989, he was a Senior Research Staff in Corporate Research, Exxon Company. In 1989 he joined the faculty of the Pennsylvania State University as an associate professor and became professor of Polymer Science in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering in 1993. He is author of about 200 professional publications, including 2 books and 45 U.S. patents.
Professor Chung is interested in the development of new polymer chemistry that can lead to new materials with unique chemical and physical properties for applications. In his recent research activities, he has been focusing on the technologies relative to energy and environmental issues. Several current research projects include (a) functionalization of polyolefins (PE, PP, EP, etc.) via the combination of metallocene catalysts and reactive comonomers and chain transfer agents to prepare polyolefins containing side-chain or chain-end functional groups, (b) synthesis of long chain branched polyolefin, including i-PP and s-PS, and studying their thin film processing, (c) studying control radical polymerization based on new functional borane/oxygen initiators to prepare functional fluoropolymers, (d) developing new energy storage technology on the polymer thin film capacitors with high energy density, high power density, and low loss, (e) studying new polyolefin-based ion conductors that show high ion conductivity, good fuel selectivity, long term stability, and cost effective, (f) investigating new polyolefin-based oil superabsorbent (oil-SAP) for oil spill recovery, (g) synthesizing boron substituted carbon (B/C) materials and doped derivatives for hydrogen storage. My group at Penn State is recognized as a leading research group in the functionalization of polyolefin and fluoropolymers with more than 180 papers and 50 US and international patents published in the past 20 years.
In light of the 2010 BP disaster in Gulf of Mexico and the 2011 Exxon oil spill in Yellowstone river, showing no effective technology for recovering oil spills and preventing pollution in the air and water, we have recently developed a new polyolefin-based oil super-absorbent polymer (oil-SAP) that exhibits high oil absorption capability (up to 50 times of its weight), fast kinetics, easy recovery from water surface, and no water absorption. The recovered oil/oil-SAP solid is suitable for regular refining process (no pollutants and no wastes). This cost effective new oil-SAP technology shall dramatically reduce the environmental impacts from oil spills and recover most of precious natural resource.

Loading... Fifty Shades of Grey: Book One of the Fifty Shades Trilogy (original 2011; edition 2012)by E L James
Work detailsFifty Shades of Grey by E. L. James (2011)
Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. I tried, I really tried, but I hated the leading female character, the idiotic sex scene's (a virgin has multiple orgasms by just nibbling on the nipples) and the cliches but I have to admit it's a clever book and not badly written. It certainly pushed some buttons. Try Anais Nin's 'Delta of Venus' if you're looking for a truly intelligent, arousing read. I just don understand why so many people like this book! It´s too little erotic content to read for the erotic parts and too much (badly) written fiction to read for that kind of enjoyment. Dialog is horrible and plot too. And I don´t even know where to start to criticize the erotic parts... Don´t waste your time. The story had potential, though you could tell it was not written by a previously published author. The author repeated comments far too many times in the book, to the point where it got annoying and difficult to finish. I read this when it was a Twilight fan fiction. I didn't like it then, and now that it is a published book just with different names i honestly don't see the what everyone sees in this book. I see characters lacking. I get that it is an Erotic book that surrounds BDSM, but this really isn't BDSM. It's about a man that likes to whip "Little brown hair girls that remind him of his mother." If you read this because you believe this is BDSM lifestyle than i am sadly to inform you it isn't. The heroin is more Dominant than the supposedly hero. I would rather waste my time and money on an E-book about BDSM than the so called "great" book fifty shades of grey. no reviews | add a review Is contained inFifty Shades Trilogy: Fifty Shades of Grey, Fifty Shades Darker, Fifty Shades Freed 3-volume Boxed Set by E.

Eni is the largest retailer of natural gas to Italy (accounting for about 50% of the market). However, regulatory restrictions have been applied to Eni in order to improve competition and encourage new entrants into the Italian gas market. Eni has now turned to the electricity market for revenue and margin growth opportunities, specifically by moving existing gas customers onto dual fuel tariffs.
Motor insurance premiums continue their downward spiral, suggesting that competitive forces are at play. However, this trend is unlikely to continue for much longer, with premiums expected to stabilize in Q4 2013.

SS I might be able to get, benchies, no way, it's in use for something 24/7. Sorry, I would like to see the results as well (I think it has 4 3ghz Yorkfield-based Xeons (so effectively 3 Q9650s ))
I kind of figured that would happen. I logged using Everest while playing online for several hours with and without hyperthreading at the same clocks on my i7 rig. Running at 3.33Ghz core and uncore I saw loads constantly above 50% without hyperthreading. With hyperthreading, it never got more than 40% and usually hovered in the 30s. Did this on more than one occasion and the results were pretty consistent.
Any idea what it's used for? I'd be happy just seeing it's performance for whatever it does. Maybe screen of a performance log? In any case, the task manager graph would be appreciated, so good luck on your new mission
I have no idea, at one point it was used as a database server (this was some time last year the last I heard of it)...I'm not sure if he even still has it (it was on loan from Intel), but I'll ask him tomorrow if he still has it and if I can get a SS or any performance figures
Yeah, seriously, according to my WCG PPD Estimator it would do something like ~10k PPD And would be so much fun in general, but apparently it was like 600w and loud as hell. But still awesome
Quick Question guys, I'm thinking about getting a Prolimatech Megahelem to replace my stock CPU cooler, and was wondering, whats a good fan to use with this heatsink? http://www.amazon.com/Prolimatech-C...Silver/dp/B002WB2LV6/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
Scythe Gentle Typhoons are good for low noise and decent temps, and Ultra Kazes are good for great temps (but like that 16-core server I mentioned above, loud as hell)
Ion, I was literally just about to suggest GT's. Got a newegg link for specs and price CDdude: 120mm,Gentle Typhoon On the topic of fans, I was looking at the Xiggy 140's here: Computer Hardware,Computer Cases,Case Fans,XIGMATE... thoughts, suggestions?
For fans, I'll vouch for just about anything Scythe. I also got some GELIDs not long ago that are pretty nice as well. They look freaking sweet too: translucent black blades and green LEDs EDIT: My bad, they were Cooler Master R4's, not GELIDS. They just remind me of the GELID fans. "90 CFM" and "19 dBa" obviously a pretty generous spec, but I'd say they come close on both.
Has anyone used Mascool fans at all, specifically their ball bearing ones? I've been kicking around the idea of getting a couple of the 140mm ones and put them on the top of my 590. I just wasn't sure about the sound of them. Why don't you spend less less money on a Noctua NH-D14 unless you pressed for room. NH-D14 $69.99 at SVC The Xigmatek 140mm fans look too much like the "straight blade" Noctua fans that are known for being good case fans but bad cooler fans since they don't push a lot of pressure. Why not get a couple medium speed Yate Loons?
Was looking at that heatsink, but i don't think it'll fit so good. It'll more likely hit the vrm heatsink on my X58 board.
I'll 2nd Mlee & Ion, the gentle typhoons are working great in push pull on the megahalem. Crunching @ 3.8 temp doesn't go above 65 and it's very quiet.
here we go, moved the hose around, and finally put on the anti kink i wanted to install for a few weeks
Ah, good call. I've been want to get a eVGA X58 SLI LE board but wasn't sure about that northbridge cooler getting in the way of my Noctua. Not to mention that the second slot can only be 8x and never anything else.
As promised, one Noctua NH-D14 fitted inside a CM 590. First, I was wrong. On the Gigabyte 790FXT-UD5P you can't run any ram with tall heat spreaders. Moving the fan higher might not be an option cause it is really close to the side panel. FWIW, the cpu fan header is in the upper left. I mounted the cooler, strapped in the 140mm fan, snaked the connectors under the fans and out the back (which was a little bit of a struggle), and used the y connector that comes with the cooler to connect them over to the cpu fan header. The y connector was just barely long enough as it was getting ready to pull the other end back through the hole I fed them through. BTW, if you mount the top 2 fans with rubber mounts like I did, you have to mount those two first as getting to the back ones to pull them through is impossible with the Noctua in there. So, moving from the OCZ Vendetta 2 with a CM R4 that I had on it to the Noctua results: Running 1.45v core and 1.25v cpu-nb I'm barely reaching 40C fully loaded under P95 Large FFTs. With the OCZ I was at that temperature when I ran 24 Hrs of Blend with an open side panel! I thought I was having problems above 3600 core as I needed more volts and the temperatures just climbed past 50C and eventually I would fail. Needless to say, I'm running large FFTs right now at 1.45v at 3800 and she is just humming along without a problem. I happy!
Ooh when you said it was tight i had no idea it was gonna be like the proverbial nun as for the ram I know what thats like my CoolerMaster Hyper 212 with 2x 120mm fans was the same way couldn't use dimm1 and dimm2 had 2mm before the fan hit thats why i chose the tuniq tower 120 to replace it but it's a AMD mobo fault they put the dimm slots far to close to the CPU socket unlike Intel mobo's
The white slots don't really have a problem with taking the dimms out without removing the fan. Its the blue ones that are not happening and the Ripjaws might now come out without removing the heatsink. Though in a wider case, you would probably have room to move the 120mm higher up to gain some room for taller dimm heat spreaders. I had reserves for the Noctua on an AMD cause I wasn't sure if it would produce enough heat to be put to use. I know its a champ on the Intel i7/5 series as my 920 barely reaches 70C under LinX with ~1.25v on the core for 4Ghz. It wasn't until I saw the AM3 cooler shootout on Techreaction.com that I decided to get one of the AMD. Then I find out that SVC is selling the Noctua 10 bucks cheaper than what I paid for mine that I bought a little after it first came out. With all that staring me in the face, it was a no brainier for me. Needless to say, the Noctua has once again turned out better than I expected. I'm really happy about it. I've got another temperature that gets reported (either vrm or nb) that runs cooler too with the Noctua in place. Its a win all the way around.
Finally got some time today to get started on my new Folder/Cruncher, here's all the parts (minus the Hard drives which are inside the case already).

If you plan on buying Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes next spring, there are several bundles
"Quiet," the sniper character of Metal Gear Solid V, is rather unsensibly (un)dressed for combat. Creator Hideo Kojima had a number of justifications for this
Colonel! These nanomachines have me tripping! Heh, this Metal Gear Solid compilation of corruptions and glitches by Vinnie from Vinesauce had me rolling while watching—even though, yes, some of 'em could be something out of a nightmare.
When the Metal Gear movie
Looking at its gameplay
While Metal Gear Solid is a franchise that has included torture in the past, not only are more and more games including it recently—GTA and Splinter Cell, for example—it's still a sensitive subject that's hard to pull off tastefully.
Want to know how an open-world design is going to change the stealth in the next Metal Gear Solid
First, Hideo Kojima wanted the mute female sniper of Metal Gear Solid V to appear "erotic." That was either a poor choice of words, or poor translation, but he evidently wanted the art director to sex her up to encourage cosplay. Or figurine sales. Well, now Kojima is Tweeting, and says we have it all wrong.
Kojima Productions held an open house of its new, Los Angeles-based studio yesterday evening, and kicked things off with the first live demonstration of its upcoming flagship title, Metal Gear Solid V.
