We're a young family living and loving life in Boston. We were first Airbnb hosts in DC, and now we're settled down in New England.
Avid travelers, we know what its like to long for home even when on vacation. In that spirit, we look forward to sharing our home with you while you're away from yours.
Gena & Leon has completed online and offline ID verification.
Our experience at Gena and Leon's place was wonderful! We were in town for the Boston Marathon, used AirBNB for the first time, and couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. We are from California, so the temp was a bit cold for us, but the space heater worked great, and warmed up the entire unit. We would stay here again if ever in the area! Thank you for a wonderful experience.
Overall our stay at Gena and Leon's was enjoyable. The apartment was well presented and comfortable to stay in during the winter period. Only downfall was the distance into main Boston as public transport wasn't as quick as we had hoped. Perfect location if you have a car though! Beautiful and quiet neighborhood outside Boston. Gena and Leon were excellent hosts and very accommodating with heating and transport ideas.
It was cold (granted we traveled in late December), and there was no TV. Other than that, this was a great place. Lovely street, very nice host, free wifi, welcoming binder, everything was clean and comfy. Very helpful that they had a pack n play for my toddler. Wish we could have stayed longer!
Thanks for staying with us! We're always happy to respond to requests to turn up the heat, so I hope you'll ask us next time you stay. I hope you had a safe trip home!
We loved our stay at Gena's beautiful apartment. We had planned on spending most of our weekend outdoors but the house was too warm and cozy to leave. Gena was very helpful and communicated well with us prior to our trip. The apartment is as it looks on the pictures with an additional small dinning room table and heater.
I enjoyed my weekend at this apartment. It looked exactly like the photos. It was a nice and spacious and very close to public transportation. Overall, I would stay here anytime
We had such an amazing time! The a apartment was lovely and in a great location. Everything was better than we expected! The space heater worked incredibly well.
Gena & Leon were VERY nice people, and I feel bad to give an only okay review, but I think it's important that if you're paying a substantial amount of money to rent a place you know what you're getting! It seems like maybe prices are much higher in Boston than in other cities, so maybe that's the problem? But we were a little bit disappointed with this rental. For the price we paid, small issues like cold rooms, the "T" station being much further away than the ad had led us to believe, a kitchen that was missing a few key things (like salt & pepper, sugar, a frying pan), the inability to lock our apartment from the rest of the house, and some confusion over off-street parking were a bit hard. On the plus side, the apartment is very cute, there's a full fridge & oven, and the hosts are very nice with super cute kids! I'm just not sure I would stay here again.
The T commuter rail stop is 4 blocks away and can be verified on the map; blocks in Boston are not consistent sizes since it's not a perfect grid here, so perhaps this is why the guest was surprised. Trains come about every 20 minutes. There are also many, many, many buses that go to the orange line, which is about 1 mile away. Guests can use this site to find the best way to get to/from if they're out late: (website hidden)_tools/trip_planner/ This is a third floor rental and the furnace is in the basement. We keep the house around 68 degrees, but we are happy to turn up the heat when requested, which we did for this guest. However, because it may take longer than one is willing to wait for the steam to get to the third floor, we provide a space heater until it's fully heated. There was and is sugar in the refrigerator to go with the variety of coffee and tea we provide free of charge. We now have salt and pepper in the apartment, along with a fry pan. It's unfortunate that the guests didn't ask for a pan, as we would have readily provided one as we did with the salt/pepper when asked. The kitchen is fully stocked with several sizes of pots and pans. We offer off-street parking and leave space for guests next to our car. Indeed, several times I saw this guest's car parked on the street and I wondered why, since there was open space in our driveway. I'm not sure what the confusion was here. The apartment can be locked with a deadbolt when inside, and we are now installing a lock with a separate key. However, we ALWAYS keep the shared entrance locked, unless the guest is the last one in and doesn't lock it. We are always happy to accommodate any requests guests have, so I look forward to more guests who are happy to stay in our lovely home.
Great hosts- they were very accommodating to our changing plans. The place was nice too. Thanks for the hospitality!
Big airy & pretty space in good neighborhood. Responsive hosts. Rental is very new & a few things to be finished. There was some noise transmission early am. Comfortable bed & futon.
nous avons loger une nuit chez Genna. les photos etaient exact. nous avons reçu un bel accueil chaleureux. c'était propre et parfait. il faisait un peu froid , j'ai avisée Genna et elle nous a procurer une chaufferette 2 minutes après. L'appartement est très bien située pour prendre le train pour aller au centre ville. le quartier était très beau et tranquille. merci pour cet accueil et la rapidité de vos réponses a mes demandes et questions. We stay one night at Genna place. Pictures were exact. we received a nice warm welcome. it was clean and perfect. it was a bit cold, I advised Genna and she bring a heater after 2 minutes. The apartment is very well situated to take the train to the city center. the area was very beautiful and tranquil. thank you for this welcome and speed of your responses to my requests and questions. I really recommend ! :)
Gena and Leon and their two cute toddlers were respectful and easy guests. They were only here for a short overnight but during that time span all went great. If your airbnb listing can accommodate little kiddos, you will enjoy this lovely family.
Wonderful guests, clean and considerate would welcome them back anytime.
Gena and Leon are wonderful guests. We would welcome them back any time.
It's a really amazing house just a stones throw from the city. The finished basement is wide open and has it's own bathroom, kitchen, and back door. It feels like a living area, not a basement. Leon and Gena themselves are wonderful and gracious people and would be great to live around.
Two of the qualities that best define Gena and Leon are that they are great hosts and great travellers. I have been a guest in their home many times and they always make visitors feel welcomed. As frequent travellers, they know what it is like to be on a tight schedule and/or budget and can easily relate to others in the same situation. The house is in a great neighborhood, with a relaxed residential feel and a nice organic market for those who want to avoid restaurants. The house is within walking distance of the metro and right in front of a bus stop which will drop you off blocks from the White House. The basement is newly renovated and would be ideal for a couple or family.

Hsieh, G-W and Li, FM and Beecher, P and Nathan, A and Wu, Y and Ong, BS and Milne, WI (2009) High performance nanocomposite thin film transistors with bilayer carbon nanotube-polythiophene active channel by ink-jet printing. Journal of Applied Physics, 106. ISSN 0021-8979
Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
Nanocomposite thin film transistors (TFTs) based on nonpercolating networks of single-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and polythiophene semiconductor [poly [5, 5′ -bis(3-dodecyl-2-thienyl)- 2, 2′ -bithiophene] (PQT-12)] thin film hosts are demonstrated by ink-jet printing. A systematic study on the effect of CNT loading on the transistor performance and channel morphology is conducted. With an appropriate loading of CNTs into the active channel, ink-jet printed composite transistors show an effective hole mobility of 0.23 cm 2 V-1 s-1, which is an enhancement of more than a factor of 7 over ink-jet printed pristine PQT-12 TFTs. In addition, these devices display reasonable on/off current ratio of 105-10 6, low off currents of the order of 10 pA, and a sharp subthreshold slope (<0.8 V dec-1). The work presented here furthers our understanding of the interaction between polythiophene polymers and nonpercolating CNTs, where the CNT density in the bilayer structure substantially influences the morphology and transistor performance of polythiophene. Therefore, optimized loading of ink-jet printed CNTs is crucial to achieve device performance enhancement. High performance ink-jet printed nanocomposite TFTs can present a promising alternative to organic TFTs in printed electronic applications, including displays, sensors, radio-frequency identification (RFID) tags, and disposable electronics. © 2009 American Institute of Physics.

So I read the article last night from Numismatic News concerning the following facts: 1. With the ceasing of dollar coin production, the seignorage given back from the mint the the treasury will drop considerably, highlighting the money being lost making cents and nickels. 2. There already is a bill introduced to force the mint to start making cents and nickels from steel. 3. In 2013 there is supposed to be a major report due to Congress on the future of the mint. The author says all of these things are adding up to making it a very good chance the new compositions will be put into place, and current cent and nickel compositions will be a thing of the past. Another thing pointing to this is the fact the steel industry has a powerful lobby, and the steel would be of domestic origin, as opposed to the metals going into our coins now. I think this would be big enough that we would witness 1965 levels of people hoarding old styles of coinage when the new ones were released. What do you all think? Chris P.S. I know, "what the heck is an ancient collector writing about this stuff anyway?"
That's a compelling article. I think there will be more hoarding of nickels and pre-82 copper cents. The zinc stuff will still be plentiful without any further fanfare. I like the steel idea, especially if it brings more jobs back to the US. The rebirth of Pittsburgh, PA sounds like a great idea!
I should think not. Back in 1999 or 2000 I thought that all of the 1965-1998 style quarters were going to vanish with the introduction of the State Quarters so I assembled two rolls of them from circulation. Over ten years later and those quarters are still very commonly seen and found in circulation. Speaking in terms of composition, just look at how pure copper pennies are still found in high numbers from circulation and they were switched to zinc 30 years ago. Sure people (pointlessly) hoard them but they are still very easily found all these years later.
Two years ago, a box of cents would yield, on average, about 28% copper in my area. Today, that's down to about 22%. Copper cents aren't gonna last forever...
DO you have a link stating the demise of the dollar coin program? I have heard that this MAY happen, but I haven't seen any offical news that it will happen.
http://www.chicagotribune.com/busin...ns-no-one-wants-them-20111214,0,5476345.story Here is one, but any google search will yield hundreds of stories. They are stopping all but collector coins.
Well, its my understanding Gresham's Law only works if one coin is seen by the general public as being more valuable than another. Most people I know did not believe the state quarters were going to make older quarters more valuable, nor are they even aware that cents have changed composition. Something like this, being different weight, look, and feel, coupled with news stories about the costs of the previous versions being much higher, (hence more valuable), is more akin to 1965 than to what you are describing. There is a reason they continued to copper plate cents in 1983, they did not wish to make it obvious to the public the change, and thereby create a cent shortage in this country, in my view. Chris
If the Feds permit the melting of pre-82 cents, then I certainly see extensive hoarding of the cents. But the hoarding of nickels maybe less likely because the face value is five times more than the cent and that ruins the margins (at current nickel and copper prices). Now if copper and nickel values increase significantly then both boats will surely rise.
Yes but those quarters 'melt value' is the exact same as the modern quarters. The pre 82' cents are worth over face value in melt and although nickel prices fluctuate a bit nickels are often worth more in 'melt value' than the face value also. Even though it's illegal to melt them down now people are already hoarding them as it's only a matter of time before they get debased and the laws on melting no longer apply just like junk silver.
Dollar Coin Alliance has details of the bogus political move by Biden and provides a chance for you to take action with a few clicks. http://dollarcoinalliance.org/ http://dollarcoinalliance.org/get-involved/
WHAT? Haha, bogus political move to eliminate a useless and wasteful program that only a rare few people actually have any interest in? Get real, boss.
Hello Fred, Let me tell you this funny story that happened about six weeks ago. I went to a Wells Fargo and bought five Sac/Pres dollars (I refuse SBA coins, too easy to confuse with quarters) from the teller's tray as I thought they would be fun to spend. I then went to a nearby Albertson's and my total came to less than $3. I gave the cashier three of the dollar coins and he didn't even know what they were! A bagger who was half his age had to explain to him that they were dollar coins, he said he hadn't "seen a dollar coin in ages". I couldn't help but laugh to myself about the whole thing, here was a seasoned cashier who deals with cash all day for a living and he was clueless about these things. Why was he so clueless? He was clueless due to a complete lack of use or interest with these coins from the general public.
Steel could potentially save the nickel for a few more years but nothing can save the cent anymore. It is now a money loser even if you give the Mint the material for free. The Mint has recently changed their accounting procedures to more closely match those used in industry. Under these procedures the current cent contains $0.0043 worth of material, and production and distribution costs are $0.0198 for a total of 2.41 cents for every cent made. And since they have stopped the dollar coin for circulation, the mint is going to lose $210 million in profits from the dollar that could be used to offset the $116 million dollar loss from the cent and nickel. So the $50 million "savings" from stopping the dollar actually turns into a $209 million loss.
Those dollars weren't getting out into circulation, so there is no way that they are making as much as they say they are off them. Just because they mint them and stick them in a warehouse somewhere doesn't mean they've made profit, it just means that they've made paper profit by creating value where none is. The beauty of fiat currency... and yes, non-precious metal currency is fiat as well. That $50m a year saved is real money saved, production costs.
Right now, I would drop all coins below 25¢ as quarters are only barely useful in commerce anymore and all of the smaller coins are only useful for fine parsing of state sales taxes as well as replace the banknotes up to at least $10 with coins. Remember that due to inflation, we have added nearly two full 'zeroes' to the USA Dollar since FDR dropped the gold standard in 1933 (I use the price of gold as my inflation constant and yes, that constant works) - the buying power of a one cent coin of the 1910s and 1920s is nearly equal to that of one DOLLAR today, and yet, except for dropping the $2.50 to $20 gold coins, the slate of basic coins between then and now is unchanged. Half Dollars were more common in circulation than quarters back then, nearly all everyday small-time commerce was in coins ONLY and to have even one or two $1 banknotes in the wallet was to be carrying 'real' money around. Amazing. Mike
I agree Mike that gold works as a contant now, but always be careful. Sometimes it doesn't. I simply use reported inflation numbers and compound them from the period I am look from and to. Its within 5% today from 1934 inflation versus gold pricing. However, go back 15 years ago, or 30 years ago from today and they were not so close, one being over and the other under. Just a suggestion sir. Chris
IMO the dollar coins will not be used until they stop printing the paper dollars and remove them from circulation. People will adjust when they have to, but not before.

For those curious folks who may want to try to stick their Fathead Jr. in clever places like on your carpet or on your cat, you may want to rethink your decorating technique because to be honest, it won't stick or stay there for very long. Fatheads do not adhere well to bumpy or textured surfaces. Lastly, you don't want your Fathead to stick to itself, let's just put it this way, your Fathead will not let go without a fight.

Comments about Fathead Tom Brady Teammate:
It can be removed and re-adhered no problem...psyched to have a 'fathead' decal denoting where the 'water closet' is. Plus a Patriots symbol with Tom Brady 'name.' That one is on the inside of my Condo...I get a kick out of it every time I walk out that door where the label is adorned...I'd put it on the outside of the door...but I don't want people knocking for Autographs! Thank you fathead!

Product description
When Ricky 'The Hitman' Hatton stepped into the ring with Kostya Tszyu on 5 June 2005, he was WBU champion, undefeated in 38 fights of which 28 were knockouts. Yet Ricky was the underdog against the legendary Tszyu, the undisputed IBF light welter-weight champion. After four years of defending his own WBU crown, this was finally Ricky's chance to show what he was made of. In front of 22,000 spectators at the MEN Arena in Manchester and millions more on TV in 80 countries, Hatton the challenger pummelled Tszyu the champion for 11 blistering rounds. Tszyu failed to get up from his stool for Round 12 and Ricky Hatton was suddenly the man to beat in the toughest division in World Boxing.Born in 1978 in Stockport, Greater Manchester, Ricky began to box at ten, and soon had to make the agonising choice between boxing and football after impressing at trials with his beloved Manchester City. He continued to impress in the ring and develop his will to win. After losing in the semi-finals of the 1996 World Championships when he felt he should have progressed to the final, Ricky threw his bronze medal in a drawer in disgust, and never looked at it again.He gave up his job as a carpet-fitter and turned pro in 1999, taking the Boxing world by storm and clinching the WBU belt within two years. "Hitman" is Ricky's story in his own words, from the training ring of Sale West Amateur Boxing Club to the world stage. With Ricky's inimitable mix of quiet, down-to-earth modesty, sportsmanship and ruthless determination to succeed, this is a unique book for every true sports fan.

"Monkey Train (Blue)" (2006) is a rare transfer printed plywood skateboard deck by Jeff Koons produced in collaboration between SUPREME and artist. This deck is in excellent condition, in original shrinkwrap cellophane , measurse 31" x 8 x 2", and is in excellent original condition.
Jeff Koons (b.1955) is among the most controversial artists to have emerged in the past 20 years, spawning a new generation of Neo-Dada artists, such as Damien Hirst. Like Marcel Duchamp and Andy Warhol, Koons is concerned with the transformation of everyday objects into art. His work merges high culture and kitsch into banal works of balloon animals, topiary terriers, and pop icons. Over the course of his career, Koons has received numerous awards including the John Singleton Copley Award (2010), the Wollaston Award from the Royal Academy of London (2008), and the Artistic Achievement Award from Americans for the Arts (2006), among others.

-----------when you buy an app that costs from $0.99 to $1.29 (hoping to be the app that you've been looking for in the past hour and thirty minutes), then you come to realize that the so-called "app" just waisted your money that you worked hardly for. (or hardly worked for). -----------when your playing online, and for hours, you've been trying to find an available server, you finally join one, and within the first two minutes that you're enjoying life, the server decides to crashes/you've lost connection/or the host just randomly decides to end the game with no warning, and you're just left sitting there either bored as heck, or you rage and trash your room while going nuts. -----------when you're playing online with your headset on talking to people you're playing with, but you can't even concentrate on talking at all because on somebody else's mic, you hear their outside music blasting, or you hear their television (or monitor) speakers blasting out the audio of the same game room that you're playing in. -----------when you buy a game thats rated "5 out of 5" or "most anticipated game of the year", and you've come to realize that you've spent about $49.95 (PLUS TAX) on a false advertised game and you have no possible way to return it, or you wind up losing the receipt. -----------when (at the time) you have the strongest wi-fi signal, but it's still takes 20 minutes to load the page itself. -----------when you have at least 20 games on your shelf, and you have no idea which one you wanna play or which one you don't wanna play. -----------when you're a part of a 30 minute conversation, but you have no idea what anybody is talking about the whole time. -----------when you text somebody at about noon, and they don't reply 'til midnight.

The processor on this one seems to be ranked [cpubenchmark.net] pretty well for this price point, that I have seen lately. $15 to go from 3gb ram to 6.
How much lower would a similar lappy go for on black friday? Wondering if it's worth the wait... |

I am trying to figure out how to simply format a connected drive, such as a usb flash drive or my ipod when it is connect to my mbp. I am used to just having that option available by right clicking it in windows but have no clue how to do it in mac os x. Anyone know how this is done? Thanks |

heeyyy i forgot that i really wanted to know this.
with an ipod you can 'reset' it in itunes, same thing. but i would like to know how to with a usb flash drive, after many uses when you 'delete' everything it still has invisible files, or something. says it has no space.

If you reformat your iPod with Disc Utility, it will no longer function as an iPod until you do a "Restore" in iTunes. iTunes "Restore" is basically just a reformat, but it preserves the iPod as an iPod.

Nice to know THOR did better lol (too all the who thought Thor was going to suck) :) I've seen X Men twice, even paid for my friend because i enjoyed it that much and i was really expecting this to do around 65 or 70 on opening weekend so i'm a little shocked but oh well thats how it goes sometimes.
4 years agoby @bud2freshFlag
If not a huge hit, regardless Super8 will at least be a moderate box-office hit, just due to the fact that JJ Abrams and Steven Spielberg are doing, and yeah I agree @dan, people love monster movies, even if the cast isn't that well known this could be a movie that makes them known, no one is born a super star.
4 years agoby @cheetoboyFlag
4 years agoby @unknown21Flag
@narrator Agreed. We gotta get Hangover II outa there!
4 years agoby @nautical05Flag
Wow Hangover II is till going strong!
4 years agoby @nautical05Flag
While I enjoyed First Class, and hope it owns the number two spot next weekend, I want Super 8 to make it both critically and financially, it being my most anticipated summer flick and all. Who knows, it may be a really close tie, and all parties will be happy? Anything's better than The Hangover Part 2 getting more dough than it already stole from American moviegoers, especially considering it put a slight hurt on KFP:2's overall net. Totally undeserving.
First Class got 50 because it has no Wolvrine
4 years agoby @SomethingMoreFlag
it's still low, people don't have enough excitement for marvel, which is why most Marvel films did not enter the top 50 highest-grossing films of the world!, I hope people would enjoy more on Marvel films and appreciate its awesomeness, but I guess the peeps want something else! X-Men 1st Class was awesome BTW!
4 years agoby @spongebob-boxofficepantsFlag
Upsetting to see First Class not do as well as the previous films considering how good it was. I've seen it twice already and I'm thinking about seeing it a third time, I thought it was fantastic. But as many have said it lacks a lot of star power and with good word of mouth it can bounce back and make some good money. Can't wait to see Super 8 next weekend but it'll be similar to how First Class opened I'm sure, probably a bit less.
@dan1 I meant to tag @bawnian-dexeus
4 years agoby @jptheredskullFlag
@jptheredskull Lol, you just tagged yourself.
@dan1@jptheredskull SHE'S STAR POWER BECAUSE SHE WAS IN DADDY DAY CARE!!! boom.
4 years agoby @jptheredskullFlag
@jptheredskull Elle Fanning, LOL. She has fame by association, if anything. No, there are 3 things that will drive people out to see Super 8. Those three things are as follows: Abrams, Spielberg, and wanting to see what this monster is. That is all.
@cupid I don't think Super 8 will do very well :P I'm guessing it won't top $40 million, and star power is again a factor in that.
4 years agoby @moviegeekFlag
@jptheredskull How is she star power?
4 years agoby @bawnian-dexeusFlag
@cupid Super 8 has Ell Fanning :P
4 years agoby @jptheredskullFlag
I think Xmen could beat Super8 next weekend, I don't know because all though it's been getting raved reviews from critics, some people are saying it won't appeal to huge box-office numbers like the previous movies that have been coming out lately, but I think it'll still be a box-office success, regardless, It's like a classic Steven Spielberg version of Cloverfield.
4 years agoby @cheetoboyFlag
@jptheredskull It could, like @moviegeek said people will talk more about it now an that might help or not but if starpower is a factor then super 8 has who?
@cupid F*CK NO!
4 years agoby @jptheredskullFlag
@moviegeek I know right?
4 years agoby @bawnian-dexeusFlag
Too bad the returns for xmen aren't as good :( I think the biggest reason is the lack of starpower in this compared to the first four. But I think it will rebound with good word of mouth.
Also upsetting to see Panda falling swiftly! Grr.
4 years agoby @moviegeekFlag
excellent turnout this weekend
it feels so great to be back at the movies every weekend this summer :)
4 years agoby @jonspidey07Flag
@cupid good question id say X-men will be second place and Super 8 will be first, but I think Super 8 is gonna make a bit lower then 56 million opening weekend
4 years agoby @daveactor7Flag
I'm sad to see x men onlly made 56, I mean, It's not like it's a failure, but I was hoping that it would be bigger of a success. God knows that it definitely deservevs every penny it makes, and then some! great f*cking flick,man! GREAT f*cking flick!

i hope x-men makes some more money...but for now this is good success considering it is a slight reboot
4 years agoby @Salem6777Flag
I know don't know why some experts are making such a big deal out of Xmen: First Class $56million opening, that is still very good. It's a reboot with new characters, and up incoming actors and actresses, But that is very good though and it did slightly out do the first Xmen movie opening weekend. Batman Begins grossed over $47milkion in it's opening weekend and ended up hitting $205millin domestically, so if the good word of mouth carries on about Xmen:First Class(which I'm sure it will), it gross just as much as the first Xmen movie, which was like over $180million, or even more, maybe $200million.

Long Shot who has an interview
I have read all the forums and people explain that you need to be a medic to have a chance, test multiple times, know somebody, have a fire degree and so on. Well I don't have any of those and I just recently locked up my EMTB cert. I am a military vet and have an advanced degree.I just recently graduated from a volunteer fire academy. However, I believe I can interview and I invested in Bob's and Chief L's oral strategies. Fortunately, this department is interviewing 70 people for 9-12 positions. Amazing odds compared to everywhere else. So can it be done, somebody with such little experience given a badge?

Title: | Redesign and initial validation of an instrument to assess the motivational qualities of music in exercise: The Brunel Music Rating Inventory-2 |
Authors: | Karageorghis, CI Priest, DL Terry, PC Chatzisarantis, NLD Lane, AM |
Keywords: | Questionnaire development;Rhythm;Validity |
Issue Date: | 2006 |
Publisher: | Taylor and Francis |
Citation: | Journal of Sports Sciences: 1–11, Oct 2006 |
Abstract: | In the present study, a measure to assess the motivational qualities of music in exercise was redesigned, extending previous research efforts (Karageorghis et al., 1999). The original measure, the Brunel Music Rating Inventory (BMRI), had shown limitations in its factor structure and its applicability to non-experts in music selection. Redesign of the BMRI used in-depth interviews with eight participants (mean age 31.9 years, s¼8.9 years) to establish the initial item pool, which was examined using a series of confirmatory factor analyses. A single-factor model provided a good fit across three musical selections with different motivational qualities (comparative fit index, CFI: 0.95 – 0.98; standardized root mean residual, SRMR: 0.03 – 0.05). The single-factor model also demonstrated acceptable fit across two independent samples and both sexes using one piece of music (CFI: 0.86 – 1.00; SRMR: 0.04 – 0.07). The BMRI was designed for experts in selecting music for exercise (e.g. dance aerobic instructors), whereas the BMRI-2 can be used both by exercise instructors and participants. The psychometric properties of the BMRI-2 are stronger than those of the BMRI and it is easier to use. The BMRI-2 provides a valid and internally consistent tool by which music can be selected to accompany a bout of exercise or a training session. Furthermore, the BMRI-2 enables researchers to standardize music in experimental protocols involving exercise-related tasks. |

Transient injection-locking of an unstable ring dye laser
Applied Optics, Vol. 29, Issue 12, pp. 1712-1713 (1990)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (2439 KB)
The transient injection-locking properties of an unstable ring resonator dye laser have been investigated. When a narrow line optical pulse was injected into the ring resonator, the energy emitted from the ring increased and the lasing spectrum narrowed to that of the injected pulse. However, the polarization control of the emitted radiation was incomplete.
