The good:
The price. However it is matched by other guest houses in the area I know to be better than this one.
Staff was nice.
Location was good. Bars nearby, beach nearby but still quiet.
The bad:
The bed was very hard. Not a problem for me, but I imagine it could be for some.
The room smelled when you entered. Running the air condition took care of it, but it came back when you went out.
The room looked very run down.

Lord Alfred Douglas
Lord Alfred Douglas is remembered today for his tumultuous association with Oscar Wilde and as a minor poet.
Douglas, universally known as Bosie, was born October 22, 1870, the third son of John Sholto Douglas, ninth Marquess of Queensberry, and Sibyl, née Montgomery.
After a boyhood during which his parents separated, Douglas went up from Winchester to Magdalen College, Oxford, in 1889. He met Oscar Wilde through a mutual friend in early summer, 1891, and they became lovers the following spring. Douglas's beauty was "like a narcissus--white and gold," as Wilde told Robert Ross.
Most of Douglas's homoerotic poetry was written between 1893 and 1896 and appeared in ... more »

Comments about Lord Alfred Douglasmore comments »
Barry Waterfield
I must admit that even in death, I find Lord Alfred Douglas obnoxious.I admit that as a boy he was pretty but I've seen prettier and known nicer natured examples. It's a pity Oscar Wilde didn't look around a bit. Douglas was a shallow pretty boy of whom I think it may be said, that the beauty of the outside was not matched the putrid nature of the interior. Hard words perhaps but they are needed, just as a good smack across the bottom was needed both during his growing up and several more times in his middle age.You can easily see the 'quality 'of the brand. He became as vile as his drunken father. As for his poetry, well, perhaps I am no judge here because I do not have a strong feel for poetry, but I think I can respect talent, it does ring some kind of bell and I don't hear any bells when I read Douglas. It is interesting that even the Internet site 'Find a Grave' contains more than one negative entry about this vicious little man and that's very unusual. The only thing that does not surprise me about this creature is his 'finding religion'. In a funny sort of way I think that adds up, it goes with his self centered nature. No let him go, he isn't worth the paper his biography is printed on.
Becky Shortt
I noticed that 'Two Loves', the poem used as evidence in Oscar Wilde's trial isn't on here. Could anybody add it? I'm not sure how the system works when it comes to adding poems by famous poets.

7 Holiday Foods That Actually Help You Lose Weight
Try these good-for-you indulgences and eating tips to stay slim all season
By Marissa Lippert, RD
Roasted Nuts
The ideal pairing for a happy hour cocktail, nuts are full of fiber, which can help keep your blood sugar levels stable and lower your risk of type 2 diabetes. They are high in calories, so use this rule to avoid overdoing it: Take a small handful and put it on your plate at the beginning of a party. Munch on that amount instead of grabbing nuts throughout the evening.
Easy Recipe:
Festive nuts (16 servings)
Toss 1 cup each of almonds, walnuts and pecans + 3 Tbsp olive oil + 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce + 4–5 sprigs of fresh thyme or rosemary + a pinch of red pepper flakes, sea salt and pepper. Roast in the oven at 350°F on a baking sheet for 20 to 25 minutes.

I saw them Richard. Your church is beautiful.
Some of our parishioners have retained a canon lawyer and filed an appeal with Rome ... However, rumor has it that the pastor of the church with whom we are to be merged has said that if the lawyerly approach continues, then the Archdiocese will close us down immediately rather than letting our Masses continue until December 1 ...
I guess thay can do that, but isn't that a threat? Are they within their rights to take that position and in essence deny us our relgious due process? ... Doesn't seem evenhanded to me, but they have the hammer ..
I guess they can play hardball if they want ... Oh, man ....

OMG. The provincial of our order pulled me aside at an event we were having and told me the same thing if I didn't stop talking to the news. I called his bluff and the order stayed until the day they had announced. A bit different situation though.
As a somewhat new convert (a recovering Episcopalian) I find it amazing to hear about Catholic churches in some parts of the country closing or dwindling in numbers of attendance. The parish I attend in north central Texas has about 8000 in attendance at the various Sunday masses, and it is still growing. Having Pre-K thru Grade 9 helps, and families in this area want some solid alternatives to the cafeteria style religion down the block and on the tube. (Teaching accountability is so fundamental, yet refreshing to youth.) It is a new church building but built in old world style enough to be called "Vatican West" by some. The newer 'cookie-cutter' architecture seems to advertise exception to tradition and propriety. It is heartbreaking to see the temporal world overcoming lives to this point, as well as the resolute futility coming from Diocesan figures whose guidance we seek for inspiration and hope. I will pray for renewal in the older urban areas as well as growth and stability globally... and remember "where two or three are gathered..."
I have removed a number of recent posts from this topic that were uncharitable and/or constituted detraction toward church leaders. I call your attention to forum rule 4, bullet 2:
Disagreement on an area where the Church permits open debate must be done with respect and charity. Saying the pope was incorrect in allowing altar girls is an example of charitable disagreement. Saying the pope is a neo-Masonic leftist coward who caves to modernity at every turn is not. Saying the pope should allow for a married priesthood is an example of charitable disagreement. Saying the pope is a misogynistic troglodyte bent on the suppression of women's rights is not.
I understand that having one's church closed or merged can be a very painful experience; however, as tempting as it is to lash out at those we feel have wronged us (or others), doing so is not consistent with Christs' teachings and ultimately causes more harm than good. Please consider using St. Pio as a role model of how to respond when being treated unjustly by those in authority.
Gotta say, this whole church thing has gotten me very down ... Makes me wonder about my faith and what I believe in anymore ...
This could be a test of faith. I'm sure you will pass with flying colors. Keep focused on Jesus.
I feel your hearthache, and sense of potential loss. I'm sure its primarily financial reasons, along with the growing shortage of priests. I wonder if a group offered to buy the church and lease it back to the diocese for a $1 a year, if they would be open to it. It would all depend on the financial resources of concerned people like yourself in the parish, who might be open to such a thing. It might be prudent to consider buying the church from a pure historical perspective, and getting it registered in the National Registry of Historical Places, and obtain grant money for its preservation and perhaps a history museum for educational purposes on site. Some things to think about.
Bryan, a church is not just a building. It's a community. It's a community of people who love and care for each other as a family. When a church is closed, that family like community is broken up, without any say about it. This is after they have financially supported that church. The community rarely stays together or go to another church together. You wouldn't understand the turmoil, huheaval and especially the maltreatment unless you've been through.
Having been through an UNJUST closure, I can assure you, the church is infinetely much more that the physical building.
I fully agree with this. Although the church is not a building, when it is closed the body of Christ, the community is broken. And only those who have gone through this turmoil can understand and emphatize with someone whose church has closed. My church was recently closed with no consultation from the parishioners. This church had paid all its debts. Although a small church, it was always well attended by a vibrant community who cared for one another. Anyone who came to our parish saw the difference in our community. The people were generous with their time and money. We were a close knit community, and after Sunday mass all the people stayed over to chat over a cuppa. We used to have meetings and organise working bees to maintain the church. And yet, without any warning this church was closed. We were given less than 2 weeks before we had our last mass and the church gates locked. We had no decree, yet our church was closed.
Our community, "the body of Christains" no longer exists. Some have totally left the faith disillusioned with the blatant lies told to us. Some have joined other denominations, while others have gone to different neighbouring churches. I appealed to the Congregation of the Clergy in Rome. They agreed that the procedure was not correct and asked the local priest and the bishop to follow the procedure to close the church. I then found that the priest was not even appointed as our parish priest. He was appointed as parish priest months after our church was closed - so that he could follow the procedure. Still there was no decree issued. Further appeals would mean a lot of money so we decided against it. But we exposed the lies behind the closure. I have been reading many of the comments here. I can firmly state that our church closure was TOTALLY UNJUST' and done in darkness. A report used to close the church was done by the church building body and it stated that the church needed $211145 to update it. Now majority of this calculation was done without any standard measurements. Of this $ 45000 was to put in new garden beds, and $ 45000 for a new carpark, and nearly $60,000 was for painting. If you see our church, the garden is maintained, the church does not need painting. Most of the costs were inflated and much of the work in the past had been done by members of our church community in working bees. Costs for structural repairs were a mere $20000, a sum we could easily rise. Our church was never in arears. A few years ago its boundaries were changed and it was taken over by another parish which had considerable debt. Our church is on prime real estate and is the only big block of land where I live. So our church had to be the sacrificial lamb.
Now I still attend church - I am disillusioned by our church leaders, but my faith in our Lord Jesus remains. I pray for our new Pope that God gives him courage and the spirit of discernment to lead our church.
I hesitate to put in my offering, however contibute to things required for the running of the local church I now attend. For I know that my money was not used for my church. I also contribute to christian charities directly. The Catholic church in Australia funded a boutique guesthouse "Domus Australia" in Rome; the principal funding coming from the archdioceses of Sydney, Melbourne and Perth and from the diocese of Lismore. This was estimated to cost between $ 30 million and $85 million according to different estimates. "Yet Catholics of the four dioceses were not consulted and there was no prospect of a reasonable financial return and no accountability."
Did our Sunday thanksgiving go to support our churches and its activities or was it used to cover up the sex scandals and the building of a boutique guesthouse in Rome??????
Of course parishioners will be angry. What would Jesus say if he was here today is a question I ask myself.
Richard, you and your people are in my prayers. Do not give up hopes, but ultimately surrender all to our loving Father. He suffers with you...

Totally worth the money
Mama of 5 from Seattle, WA– Verified Buyer
After reading many review on double jogging stroller with all having not so great reviews. I choose this one since it has all the things I wanted. Swivel wheel that locks, folding, cup holders. I have walked and now jogged with it. I love that you can lock the wheel just before jogging with the flip of a switch and back again with out stopping. It folds pretty well. I haven't taken it anywhere to see if it fits through doorway. Like other people have said its really heavy. I am 5 foot and I don't think I can put it in and out of the van unless I really need it. Great price, really good quality. I have had top brand double strollers and I can say it matches. The backrest are a little short, but by 2 kids are sitting up on there own and don't need something behind there heads. After my jogs my 2 12 year old is always sleeping but looks happy. Seats are narrow which gives a snug fit, which is good if you are going to use it jogging. You don't want them rocking it about. I haven't had any problems with wheels falling off or shaking. I was really careful reading the instruction and it was really easy to put together. Brakes work well. What can I say its working great for us. After reading all the bad review for all the different jogging strollers I felt like non were really that great, but I think for the versatility and quality this is the best you can get for the money. Gave 4 stars for weight.
Very Satisfied.
Gina from Rochester, NY– Verified Buyer
Bought this stroller to use for my 2 year old and 4 month old. It seems to be made very well and is very easy to push. It goes without much effort even with both kids in it. My 2 year old currently weighs 30lbs. I found it rather a pain to get the tires pumped up. It was very hard to get the nozzel to the tire pump attached on correctly in order to pump the air in. It is rather heavy, Im not sure that I would be able to load it in and out of the trunk without the help of my husband. I havent tried to do that yet. But Im not sure any other twin stroller would honestly be any lighter. The other complaint is the 5 point harness straps it has. Now I understand that this is a jogging stoller but that doesnt mean everyone is going to use it in that manner. Im not all about having the shoulder straps on everything and even with them as loose as they can go, its still hard to strap my 2 year old in. No wait its IMPOSSIBLE as the straps are way too tight on her once you get them clicked. I actually ended up undoing the shoulder straps and just have her buckled at the waist. I feel like sometimes its the little things that dont get taken into consideration when a product is being made.

Nice stroller, works out well for a son of ours the that is a runner and now has 2 children. He states that it runs smoothly. A little cumbersome in its size & having 2 children, but despite that it seems to do more than just get the job done. Sturdy, nice tires, balanced well, not cheaply made. Rolls well with 2 children in it. Folding it a little more time cumbersome than you might want, but you give , you take, Price was very equitable & reasonable on this site. thanks
3 VERY Happy Girls:)
shannon greuling from milford ma
My twin girls are now 6 months and I am very pleased with my stroller selection! Moves smoothly and with ease. Little heavy but to be expected,it is twice th size! I'm not a big woman and I've been able to put in and out of car. Dual sunshades are nice and 4 cupholders will be convenient when the time comes! Also like th swivell handle bar and can plug in ipod:) all in all I'm happy and my girls are happy safe and comfortable! We all love it
Shawn from Lithonia, GA– Verified Buyer
I absolutely love this stroller. It maneuvers with ease! It is well worth the money. We love using it for our walks on the trails.
Great stroller
Mother of 1-yr-old twins from Texas
This stroller is great for my one-year-old twins. They love the space compared to their last stroller. The only problem is in older buildings it might be about 1/4 inch too wide, but most ADA approved doorways are wide enough for this stroller (my previous twin stroller was the same way though so I don't know that this is any different than any other side-by-side). There is plenty of room to grow, and very easy to push. You can easily push with only one hand and it goes smoothly over all terrains that I've tried thus far. I looked for a long time and this is a great stroller, especially for the price.
Abby A from 29 palms, Ca
is this stroller compatible with any car seat? I have a 15 month old and she is expecting a sister soon, It would be nice if I got feedback on the whole car seat thing. thank you!

To better comply with the Clean comply with Water Act, EPA is preparing to expand its reach beyond separate and combined-sewer communities to bring the nation under a new, uniform quality standard for old as well as new development. It's the next step toward replacing our patchwork of widely varying — city by city, state by state, region by region — control requirements with one standard that applies to all watersheds.
In addition to focusing on flood control — i.e., designing for individual events — regulators will expect National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permittees to (NPDES) permittees also control annual runoff volume to mimic predeveloped watershed conditions for typical-year rainfall. The agency's strategies for managing nonpoint pollution emphasize "green infrastructure" that reduces impervious surfaces, increases infiltration, and/or reuses runoff.
The new requirements are expected to be released by November 2012, and they won't affect only stormwater operations. If you haven't already, start reaching out to colleagues in other departments to review and update standards for streets, subdivisions, and other land use.
How to calculate the potential cost and impact of best management practices.
The figures on this page represent standalone stormwater projects. But many operations are incorporating runoff-control measures into planned capital improvements like street or curb replacement, a new park, or a roof replacement.
In such cases, the "premium" for a green retrofit may be little or nothing. Which, along with being environmentally friendly, is one of the beauties of green infrastructure.

Freedom is a great card!

Soo..... I applied for the Chase Freedom card yesterday. I just called the phone number for the automated status and it said I was approved for $1000 limit! Sounds great, nothing really to complain about! Any chance they'll increase my credit limit if I call the backdoor number or would that be considered greedy at my level? Or if anything should I call in a year and have it increased? Thanks a lot for all the advice.
BTW: I noticed fifth third charges a fee for having an inactive credit card. Instead of worrying about two credit cards at my age I might just get cancel it.
Now I just need to learn how to set this account up with my primary checking account at a different bank and figure out how/when to pay.

If your tax return shows $10,000 income, that's what you use. You said you paid taxes on it all. Income is not always just W2s. Investment income, retirement income, even unemployment. You just have to be able to prove it if asked. If anyone asks for a pay stub or W2, ask if a copy of your 1040 will do because that shows all your income.
I agreed with this! Show the bank your 1040. Also, when you graduate and get real income, I would move on to another lender.

I applied using my real income (~$10,500).
I'm pretty happy with a $1,000 limit for my first credit card. $2,000 would have been nicer but you can't always get what you want!

much worse than the near gain of 1 op amps had at half the output P-P.
Those were also a home brewed copy of something one of my employees made
before I came in the door in '84, and in my attempts to build a working
television station, that problem finally filtered itself to the top of the
must do list about a year later.
The biggest problem with the TLO84's was that those long cable runs made
excellent antennas for EMP's, which caused then to self destruct in bags
full every time the STL tower, a 255' pyrod self supported tower about 20
feet outside the back door, got tapped by a wandering lightning strike, so
I had to keep TLO84's around in 3 stick quantities, but TLO84's are dirt
cheap. The lightning strike was a many times annually event when you have
255' of steel sticking up.

Likewise Fons, have a good evening.

Cracking The Code: New Insurance Industry Study From State Street Shows Move From Big Data To Smart Data Is Critical
As the insurance industry faces an unprecedented shift in how it does business, a key consideration the industry needs to address is how best to leverage its investment in technology, according to the most recent survey of insurance leaders released today by State Street Corporation (NYSE:STT). Specifically, insurers are looking to better utilize data and analytics to make better investment and risk management decisions.
State Street's study, based on a survey of more than 300 insurance executives globally conducted by the Economist Intelligence Unit, focused on the major industry issues and examined how prepared insurers are to face those challenges. The study, "Facing the Future: Blueprint for Growth," showed that insurers are hungry for better ways to collaborate and share data across their business:
- Seventy-five percent of respondents say that using data more effectively across their organization is a challenge for them, with 22% citing it as a "major challenge."
- Looking specifically at the investment portfolio, while 84% of respondents say they have access to portfolio investment data that is accurate, only two-thirds believe they have access to data that allow them to understand their total risk exposure.

"Like many large, global institutions, insurers are starting to shift their technology focus from big data to smart data," said Joseph C. Antonellis, vice chairman of State Street. "The nature of what insurers do provides a wealth of data, but it is clearly a struggle to harness that data to capture meaningful, actionable insights."
In addition to leveraging data through analytics to better understand and help customers, insurers are looking to technology to address other challenges. A difficult market backdrop with a historically low interest rate environment, future investment cash flows and match them to future liabilities, while also helping to ensure compliance with new regulations and reporting requirements.

December 19, 2014
FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) - North Texas prosecutors say a man who's admitted to sexually abusing more than 30 boys and acts of bestiality involving animals has been sentenced to life in prison.
Todd William Mitchell was found guilty by a Tarrant County jury of violating court orders he was told to follow as part of a sex offender treatment program. Prosecutors say the jury deliberated for 15 minutes Wednesday before issuing the maximum penalty.
The 55-year-old Mitchell had six prior felony convictions for abusing children and had served at least 15 years in prison. Upon his most recent release in 2011, he was ordered to live at a facility in Fort Worth and undergo counseling. Authorities say he repeatedly violated the order, including by being a voyeur. The violations prompted the trial held this week.

A day before Ron Paul handily won the Virginia GOP's straw poll, the Virginia Republican State Central Committee voted to remove the "voter loyalty oath" that had been previously ordered by the Committee.
The party had been widely criticized for asking the State Board of Elections to put the oath in place for the Feb. 12 primary. This was seen as a move against Ron Paul, since his supporters are less likely to support a pro-war nominee.

Patches below the switches is what I was taught and have always done, but otherwise look good.
So, we've got a cabinet going into our new building which I have now planned the layout of. What do people think of this layout? Too much cable management? There's going to be 86 cat5e cables, and 3 fibre patch leads to manage.

Patches below the switches is what I was taught and have always done, but otherwise look good.
Do you have a bigger ver of the pic?
id try and have 24 patch, 48 switch, 24 patch, 24 patch, 48 port switch thben you can use short cables (assuming most go from patch to nearest switch as most 48 porters have +2 or +4 ports on them
I would be inclined to mix things up so cables don't have that far to go to the switches, and to minimise the amount of vertical cables that end up getting in the way. I've attached a photo of the top half of a 42U cab that I think has a similar amount of stuff to what you want.
How can a cable be too short for a standard - ive heard of too long but never too short - source please?
Your nuts I love short patching have a 2 x 24 panels sandwiching a 48 port switch works so well.
It does state in CCNA fundamentals about the minimum length should be 0.5m for parity reasons.
We do 3 1U patch panels switch, same again and use 1/4m patch leads or 1/2's where needed, makes it a lot tidyer and gives you more space and no need for as many cable management racks. I would show you the pictures of what we have done but do not have them handy at the moment on my pc.
You don't seem to have any vertical cable management? Also, is there any room to grow? I know you'll be absolutely certain now that that will never be needed but if things change and there's no space to grow then it's way more expensive to change it later.
I'm quite a noob to cable management at the moment, i re-cabled a cab recently but it was my first ever one. i had a look at your diagram and it is something i would do, It looks logical...

Currie 1955-57 Chevy 9 Inch Replacement Rear Axle Kit
Click image to enlarge
What's in the Box
Now you can have the strength and serviceability that Ford drivers have enjoyed for years underneath your GM vehicle. Currie Crate Rearends are built using the stock overall width, pinion offest, and mounting points of your original rear axle housing, making it a 100% bolt-in upgrade. Designed as a bolt-in kit for 1955-57 Chevy Car applications.
- All new 9-Plus heavy duty housing
- Replacement fit for 1955-57 Chevy chassis
- Heavy duty 2" wide leaf spring pads installed in the stock location
- 31 spline performance axle shafts
- 60" width
- Torino-style late model large bearing housing ends
- Third member studs installed
- Axles drilled for stock 5 on 4-3/4" wheel bolt pattern
- 7/16"-20 wheel studs pressed into axles
- 1/4" thick heavy duty bearing retainer plates
- Tapered Timken style wheel bearings pressed onto axle
Note: Works with Speedway rear disc brake kits, 11" Ford Explorer disc brakes, and Wilwood disc brakes. Third member sold separately.
How to Measure Your Housing Tech Tip (Link)
To learn more about Currie's 9+ rearends, check out these Frequently Asked Questions on 9-Plus Housing (Link)
Need a certain length not found on our site? Check out Currie's 9+ Rearend Calculator to have specially sized axles or rearend housings made for your specific application. Custom orders will be built and processed directly through Currie Enterprizes and shipped to your door. For ease of ordering, please refer to Currie's Dimension Diagram.
Installation Notes:
When installing new axles in rearends with posi traction differentials, be sure to install the driver's side axle first to keep the splines properly aligned. Failure to do so may move the two splined gears out of alignment, and it may be difficult to install the driver's side axle properly if the passenger side axle is already installed.
If installation of passenger side axle is done first it may require two people when installing the driver's side axle, with both parties rotating reach axle until splines are in line and the driver's side axle fully sides into the housing.
To ensure you get the most out of your new 9 Inch components, Currie recommends that you perform a proper break-in process:
- Use a name brand mineral-based gear oil, preferably 85w140 (Extremely high quality synthetic oils may be used once break-in process has been successfully performed)
- Place vehicle on jack stands and let the rearend spin while the vehicle idles - run transmission in both forward and reverse periodically throughout the process
- Continue to run the rearend until the pinion gets hot (place hand on bottom of the differential housing to verify this)
- Proper break-in allows:
- The ability to install new axles and hit the track the same day without worry
- Extended life for rearend components
- Keeps the quality and life of your gear oil
Note: If you find that your rearend is running somewhat "tight" be sure to add Currie's 9+ Friction Modifier to "loosen up". If a more aggressive performance is desired, Friction Modifier is not needed.

Google Cashes In with Finance Site
Internet search provider Google on March 21 began offering a real-time financial information channel to compete with the likes of Yahoo Finance.
The feature, called Google Finance, is being offered to the U.S. audience now and will be offered in Europe in the next few days, according to a source.
A Google representative did not return an e-mail seeking comment.
The move falls in line with Googles strategy to continuously extend the type of online features it offers, and can be seen as part of its ongoing features war with leading online portals Yahoo and Microsofts MSN and its heir-apparent Live.com.
On its Web site, Google writes that Google Finance stands apart from competitors by allowing to search for information using a company stock ticker and compare the effect of a news story on a stocks performance, plus automatically group companies that are similar into a "related companies" category.
For now, Google Finance is being offered only to users in North America, but the company says on its Web site that its "actively investigating versions of Google Finance for countries outside of North America. However, we cant put an exact time frame on any international expansion."
Click here to read more about recent Microsoft search engine upgrades, as it girds to battle Google.
Google Finance is of particular interest because rival Internet portals Yahoo, of Sunnyvale, Calif., and Microsofts MSN already have real-time financial information features.
Yahoo Finance ranks as the No. 1 online financial news and information destination, with nearly 12 million visitors in February. MSN Money is second, with 10.8 million.
Read more here about how finance sites help make search "sticky."
Editors Note: This story was updated to reflect the fact that Google Finance has formally launched.

Hydrogenation of Dislocation-Limited Heteroepitaxial Silicon Solar Cells: Preprint
Hydrogenation of Dislocation-Limited Heteroepitaxial Silicon Solar Cells: Preprint Post-deposition hydrogenation by remote plasma significantly improves performance of heteroepitaxial silicon solar cells. Heteroepitaxial deposition of thin crystal silicon on sapphire for photovoltaics (PV) is an excellent model system for the study and improvement of deposition on inexpensive Al2O3-coated (100) biaxially-textured metal foils. Without hydrogenation, PV conversion efficiencies are less than 1% on our model system. Performance is limited by carrier recombination at electrically active dislocations that result from lattice mismatch, and other defects. We find that low-temperature hydrogenation at 350 degrees C is more effective than hydrogenation at 610 degrees C. In this work, we use measurements such as spectral quantum efficiency, secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), and vibrational Si-H spectroscopies to understand the effects of hydrogenation on the materials and devices. Quantum efficiency increases most at red and green wavelengths, indicating hydrogenation is affecting the bulk more than the surface of the cells. SIMS shows there are 100X more hydrogen atoms in our cells than dangling bonds along dislocations. Yet, Raman spectroscopy indicates that only low temperature hydrogenation creates Si-H bonds; trapped hydrogen does not stably passivate dangling-bond recombination sites at high temperatures.
