November's Yoga Pose – Aura Magnification with Eagle Pose
Aura Power
How to Work on Your Aura
So far our monthly yoga poses have focused on building physical strength and flexibility, and for the November pose, we are going to continue our strength building work, but in a more subtle way. This month we are going to practice a pose to help strengthen an energetic aspect of our being, our Aura. The pose to help us accomplish this important task is going to be the famous Kundalini Yoga Eagle Pose.
The aura is a very important aspect of your totality. According to Kundalini Yoga the aura is the power of your magnetic field, and it protects you from seen and unseen forces. In addition, more powerful the aura, more is your ability to influence and heal people. In other words, a clean shinning aura makes you magnetic and charming. If that was not enough, the aura is also responsible for attracting positive energy towards you and having this aspect in optimum condition, helps put you in the right place at the right time.
From a numerological perspective the aura is the Seventh body of light, of the Ten Bodies of Light Yoga Numerology model, and it's strength is determined by the prana (life-force) flowing through your nadis (meridians/energy pathways) and your total nerve energy. So the greater the flow of your prana, the brighter you will shine, and more charisma, magnetism and opportunities you will have. One of the best poses for building your aura is Eagle Pose, so let us practice that pose for this month, and reap the many benefits .
If you are interested in more information on 10 Bodies of Light Yoga Numerology or the service that is offered, you can check the following page: 10 Bodies of Light Yoga Numerology. The previous yoga poses for the month were the following three:
August: Learn Yoga | Nauk Asana for the Month (Abs)
September: Yoga Pose for Thighs – Frog Pose (Thighs/Butt)
October: Important Hatha Yoga Posture for Healing – Forward Bend (Thighs/Buttocks)
Before jumping ahead to Eagle Pose, let me give you a quick summary of what the yoga challenge of the month is and how it works. Essentially, the idea is for us all to include a particular exercise into our yoga practice and then to report back our thoughts and progress with that pose throughout the month. The goal is to learn a great pose together, and experience and enjoy the benefits of that pose.
The article with all the detail on Eagle Pose is Eagle Pose for Powerful Aura, so please read that first. Here though are some key points and basic guidelines.
Eagle Pose Practice Tips:
- Beginner's start with 15-30 seconds and build up from there.
- Use the Breath of Fire to power your way through this exercise.
- Don't give up on the first sign of discomfort. If you can see it through, it will get easier as your energy pathways open up.

Using forest animals as a theme for the baby's room is a delightful way to go. The baby animals of the forest make these charming crib bedding sets ideal for decorating the nursery.
Start with the Crib for Easy Decorating
When you have decided on your theme for the nursery, like forest animals, starting with the big items first is the easiest way to decorate. The biggest items, like the crib, will also be the biggest expense you have.
With a theme like forest animals, you have some color combinations all set for you. Most designs will include some form of brown and green. These are natural forest colors, but that doesn't mean you have to stick solely with those colors.
Creams and yellows are also in forest themes. Look at things like the orange/red in a baby fox for accent colors. Other accent colors can include sky blue and the lavenders of forest wildflowers.
Forest Animal Crib Bedding Sets
Any of these charming sets will make great ways to decorate the nursery in a forest animal theme. Once you have the set you like best, consider getting some of the extras that companies also offer. Things like the matching lamp shades, diaper stackers, or wall hangings.
Wall Hanging for the Nursery
With infants and young babies, you don't want to have blankets in the crib with them. Those kinds of things can cause choking and suffocating hazards. Instead, hang the comforter on the wall above the crib. You have an ideal addition to the decor of the nursery.
Just add in a few more delightful additions, like forest animal wall decals, and other accessories, and you have a complete design for the nursery. Now how easy is that?

My brother-in-law runs a lodge in Klondike
check the site out @ www.lacroixshuntinglodge.com
he should hook you up but get ready for a great time and a full belly
Forgot his first name, but don't go with the babineaux guy. Give it a little time and his name will pop up on here.
If you want to shoot lesser canadans go to panhandal of texas they have specks to hunt peanut feilds you will ducks also look up blackfoot outfitters they kill around 7,000 geese a season it not that much just longer drive that will be wroth it
Stay away from David Smiths in Welch, Louisiana. Worst guide ever. We only shot a few geese and had to pick up over a thousand decoys after the hunt.
I can vouch for Blackffoot. He is out of North Texas and also does a Goose/ Duck hunt in Saskatchewan Canada. He is a great outfitter. I ahvent hunted with him in Tx but im sure its just as good. Myself and 5 freinds made that canada trip last year.If you are a die hard waterfowler its worth it. We wore em out!!! Whole trip including Airfare and everyhting was $2500.
Stay away from Cajun Wildlife Adventure. They Guys name is Kevin Babineaux out of Guydan. Horrible operation
I would also recommend LaCroix. I guided at that camp when it was Shot's Hunting Club. I guided there for about 17 years. Then my daughter decided she wanted to start duck hunting at the age of 16. So I went out a found her a yellow lab pup and I quit guiding. I now just take her and friends hunting.
LaCroix "Bruner Farm" was always a pretty good place to hunt geese. Alot depends on weather and luck. I've had some of my best goose hunts on clear blue bird days. You just never know. I've also had some great hunt late in the season, the birds would just decided they wanted to work that day. You can always have bad days. Any place that tells you they always kill is not tell you the truth. I guided in the 165 acre field up front of the lease for 15 years. This used to be the best goose blind on average. I killed my limit in specks most days. It was far from the best for ducks, but most of the hunters "Sports" I took out did not want to shoot ducks anyway.
Good Luck
i do guided duck/goose hunts and have lay out blinds and prepare our fields to hunt in the pit blinds, or in stubble in the lay outs. truly, in january, that's probably the best way to really get 'em in yo face!!!!! we don't have a lodge, but we're only 10 min. from jennings hotels. we hunt south of welsh near tornwell, and have blinds in klondike also. we havw a web site but you have to type it in exactly to go to it. www.specklebellyhuntingclub.com. we will work with you on rates. my cell is 337-304-9230 russell mcnabb thanks and lookin forward to helpin you.
my buddy hunts at that lodge in texas. he's sold on it. the guide actually told them to bring 20 gauges for the canada geese. no kidding, they're that close. i've heard nothing but good things from there. my buddy even shot a double banded canada but shot it with 3.5 inch BB's and shot his head off, making for a poor mount i guess. he also guides duck, pheasant, and sandhill crane.
of course, i also like supporting the louisiana businesses first, so good luck choosing, either way it sounds like a great bachelor party.

Is Chaska Borek Dating Star Footballer Javier Chicharito Hernandez? She's Only 18!ToniFitz76
Would you let your teenage daughter date one of the world's most promising soccer players? Chaska Borek is rumored to be dating footballer (as they call them everywhere else in the world) Javier Chicharito Hernandez, a Manchester United player who also competes for Mexico's national team. He scored two goals in the World Cup last summer, but right now this 22-year-old is making news for what he's doing off the field!
Borek is an 18-year-old British girl who was seen out with Chicharito in September. But since that sighting, people have been harassing poor Borek via her Facebook page and Twitter account. She has a Formspring account on which she'll answer questions, and many of the questions are about Chicharito (she's not talking about him!) but also begging her to break up with him or saying mean things about her.
Grow up, people! The girl does not need that sort of abuse, and it certainly makes me think twice about letting my daughter date Justin Bieber if he ever did show up …

The pulsed field ionization spectrum and lifetimes of the states at the S 1 origin of pyrazine95(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460979View Description Hide Description
The pump–probe pulsed field ionization (PFI) spectrum through the origin of S 1 of pyrazine reveals three distinct types of peaks. At low excess energy above the lowest ionization potential (I.P.) are sharp peaks with Franck–Condon factors representative of the singlet intermediate state. At ionization wavelengths <208 nm, the Franck–Condon overlap allows for the observation of primarily the triplet component of the pumped superposition state. At this energy, some resolved structure has a measured lifetime >10 μs and is determined to be the result of ionization of relaxed triplet states populated through vibrational dissociation of van der Waals clusters. A diffuse structure in the same region is the result of ionization of monomer intermediate states with lifetimes that vary with the ionizing wavelength. From this variation, it can be surmised that there is an inhomogeneous sample of intermediate states, possibly due to a mixture of unrelaxed molecular eigenstates and decoupled triplets populated by an intramolecular vibrational relaxation within the triplet manifold.
Dielectric phase transition and symmetry change of constituent molecules in proton–deuteron mixed crystals of squaric acid95(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460980View Description Hide Description
We have investigated effects of random substitution of proton sites with deuterons on the temperature‐ and pressure‐induced phase transitions in squaric acid crystal, which consists of ferroelectrically ordered molecular sheets of [C4O4]2−(SQ2−) skeletons and intervening protons or deuterons. In the isotopically mixed crystals (H1−x D x )2SQ, the critical temperature T c for the dielectricphase transition was found to increase linearly with the deuterium concentration x, while the critical pressure P c increases nonlinearly with x at 300 K. Around the pressure ∼20 kbar above P c , the constituent SQ2− skeletons in the paraelectric phase show a symmetry change from the asymmetric (C 1h ) to centrosymmetric (C 4h ) form, which is likely caused by the deformation of the correlated proton (deuteron) potential.
Two‐photon spectroscopy of N2: Multiphoton ionization, laser‐induced fluorescence, and direct absorption via the a' 1Σ+ g state95(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460981View Description Hide Description
A new (2+1) resonantly enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) process via the a' 1Σ+ g state of N2 with a quantum specific detection sensitivity of ∼105 molecule cm−3 is reported. The resulting spectra are easily analyzed and yield d i r e c t l y the relative rotational and vibrational populations in the ground electronic state of N2. Additionally, both two‐photon direct absorption (TPDA) to, and laser‐induced fluorescence (LIF) from two‐photon excitation of, the a' state of N2 are observed. These spectroscopies are compared with (2+1) REMPI and TPDA via the E,F state of H2.
Radiative lifetimes and reactivity of metastable NO+(a 3Σ+,v) and O+ 2(a 4Π u ,v)95(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460982View Description Hide Description
The radiative lifetimes and reactivity of metastable NO+(a 3Σ+) and O+ 2(a 4Π u ) have been investigated using a triple cell ion cyclotron resonance (ICR) spectrometer. Radiative lifetimes of (100±20) ms and (135±25) ms have been found for NO+(a 3Σ+) v≥1 and v≥0 respectively, with Ar and CO2 as monitor gases. The overall reaction rate of NO+(a 3Σ+,v≥1) with Ar (6.5×10−10 cm3 s−1 ) is 1 order of magnitude larger than the rate of v=0 determined in flowing afterglows. CO2 reacts at collision rate. For O+ 2 the overall lifetime of v≥0, determined with Ar as monitor, is (30±6) ms in between the two values (7 and 130 ms) found by Bustamente e t a l. using the photodissociation technique. The possible reasons for the longer lifetimes determined in previous ICR experiments is discussed. In the absence of any a b i n i t i o calculation, the experimental results on NO+(a 3Σ+) may only be compared to values calculated using an approximated perturbation model. Unfortunately, the reliability of this model, also used in the previous studies, is very limited because of the large uncertainty on the coupling between the metastable a 3Σ+ and the perturbing radiative A 1Π states.
Tunneling within localized states in nitrosyl myoglobin95(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460983View Description Hide Description
The temperature (T) dependence of the spin lattice relaxation time of nitrosyl myoglobin (MbNO) was measured in the range from 9 to 310 K. Both powdered and solution samples exhibit an unexpected dependence. Experimental data is well fitted by a T n function with n=2.2±0.3 in this large temperature range. This result is interpreted within the tunnelinglocalized states model associated with the existence of conformational equilibrium in MbNO.
Suppression of vibron state formation in Ar x (N2)1−x mixed crystals95(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460984View Description Hide Description
The dephasing of the k≂0 states of the vibrons in Ar x (N2)1−x crystals was studied by picosecond time‐resolved coherent anti‐Stokes Raman scattering as a function of temperature (0<T<40 K) and Ar concentration (0<x<0.15). Homogeneous (exponential) and inhomogeneous (Gaussian) contributions to the observed dephasing signal were separated. In the α phase, an increase of the inhomogeneous linewidth was obtained starting from small concentrations of Ar atoms. For larger Ar concentrations, a decrease of the exponential dephasing time T 2 and a temperature dependence of the increasingly faster Gaussian decay is observed. Substitution of N2 molecules by Ar atoms increases the librational amplitude. Through anharmonic terms in the crystal Hamiltonian the vibron state formation is reduced and as a result, the T 2 time decreases. This suppression of vibron state formation, which counteracts the reduction of the inhomogeneous broadening, is responsible for the increasing and temperature dependent inhomogeneous linewidth. The A g −T g factor group splitting increases almost linearly with Ar concentration. Surprisingly, no inhomogeneous line broadening could be resolved for β‐Ar x (N2)1−x crystals and the observed dephasing time T 2 remains long compared to the α phase, even for high Ar concentrations.
Millimeter‐wave spectrum of NCS radical in the ground 2Π state95(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460985View Description Hide Description
The rotational transitions of NCS have been observed in the 1 to 3 mm wavelength region in a hollow cathodedischarge in a gas mixture of CS2 (∼1 mTorr) and N2 (∼30 mTorr). The molecular constants in the ground state are determined by fitting the observed frequencies to the standard Hamiltonian for 2Π states. The accuracy of the molecular constants are greatly improved compared with the values obtained from the optical data. The lines in the excited vibronic states have also been observed. The analysis including those excited state lines is in progress and the results will be published separately.
Millimeter‐wave laboratory detection of HNCCN+95(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460986View Description Hide Description
The ground‐state rotational spectrum of protonated cyanogen, HNCCN+, has been identified following the infrared detection by Warner and Amano [J. Mol. Spectrosc. 1 4 5, 66 (1991)], using a hollow cathode discharge as production source. The rotational and centrifugal distortion constants have been determined to be 4438.010 13(71) MHz and 0.529 95(24) kHz, respectively.
Rotational spectra and structures of van der Waals dimers of Ar with a series of fluorocarbons: Ar⋅⋅⋅CH2CHF, Ar⋅⋅⋅CH2CF2, and Ar⋅⋅⋅CHFCF295(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460987View Description Hide Description
Rotational spectra of van der Waals dimers between an argon atom and CH2CHF, CH2CF2, and CHFCF2 have been obtained by pulsed‐supersonic nozzle Fourier transformmicrowave spectroscopy.Analysis of the derived spectroscopic constants shows that the dimers have structures such that for CH2CHF, CH2CF2, and CHFCF2 the Ar atom is positioned over the FCCH, FCF, and FCCF atomic chains with Ar‐molecular center‐of‐mass distances of 3.62 Å, 3.51 Å, and 3.56 Å, and angles between the Ar–cm axis and molecular planes of 48.2°, 72.9°, and 60.5°, respectively. Structures for the three dimers are also predicted with a simple multisite model which describes the anisotropy of the dispersive interaction; both the Ar acceptor site and the atom–atom distances are satisfactorily reproduced.
The C 3Π(v'=0–6)–X 3Π(v'=0) transition in SiC95(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460988View Description Hide Description
We report the measurement of seven rovibronic bands belonging to the C 3Π(v'=0–6)‐X 3Π(v'=0) transition in SiC. The molecules are produced by laser vaporization in combination with supersonic cooling and the transitions are detected using pulsed laser induced fluorescence spectroscopy. The vibrational and rotational structure of the C 3Π state are determined. Radiative lifetimes vary from 2886 ns for v'=0 to 499 ns for v'=6. Dispersed fluorescence spectra from the excited vibrational levels to the ground state have been measured and the vibrational constants of the electronic ground state were obtained. Both the v' dependence of the radiative lifetime and observed anomalous intensity distributions in the fluorescence spectra are explained by an electronic transition moment function that varies with the internuclear distance. The results are compared with a b i n i t i o calculations.
The far infrared spectrum of C3O295(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460938View Description Hide Description
The far infrared spectrum of carbon suboxide, 1 2C3 1 6O2, has been recorded at a resolution of 0.003 cm−1 in the region from 15 to 130 cm−1 with a Bomem interferometer. Altogether 18 bands involving the excitation of up to 8 quanta in the low frequency quasilinear bending mode ν7 were analyzed rotationally. A total of 1320 far infrared lines together with 231 microwave lines taken from Karyakin e t a l. [J. Mol. Spectrosc. 9 4, 283 (1982)] have been fitted to an effective model. Improved effective constants have been obtained for all the l sublevels of v 7=0 to 4 and for l=1 of v 7=5. Constants have been obtained for the first time for the levels 53 and 55 and some of the l sublevels of v 7=6, 7, and 8.

The spectroscopic and photophysical effects of the position of methyl substitution. I. 4‐ and 5‐methylpyrimidine95(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460939View Description Hide Description
Laser‐induced fluorescence excitation and dispersed fluorescence spectra of the first n–π* transition of jet‐cooled 4‐ and 5‐methylpyrimidine (4‐mp and 5‐mp) have been recorded and analyzed. In 5‐mp, methyl substitution preserves many of the spectroscopic signatures of the unsubstituted pyrimidine molecule. Dispersed fluorescence spectra are used to assign most of the major features in the first 1000 cm−1 of the excitation spectrum. High resolution scans at the origin reveal a 0.20 cm− 1 splitting of the origin arising from the 0a ' 1–0a 1 and 1e'–1e' internal rotor transitions. From this small splitting we deduce that the nearly free internal rotation of the methyl group in the ground state is carried over to the S 1 state as well. In 4‐methylpyrimidine, the reduction in symmetry accompanying methyl substitution (G 12 to G 6 ) results in allowed transitions to all in‐plane fundamentals. The methyl group is seen to participate in the electronic transition to a greater degree in 4‐mp than in 5‐mp.
We observe clear activity in both the C–CH3 stretch and C–CH3 in‐plane bend in the dispersed fluorescence from the origin of 4‐mp. 4‐mp also differs remarkably from 5‐mp in the magnitude of the barrier to methyl internal rotation in S 0 and S 1. By fitting the positions and intensities of internal rotor structure in ground and excited states we deduce a ground state barrier to internal rotation of V ' 3=95±5 cm− 1 and a best‐fit excited state barrier of V 3=745 cm−1, V ' 6=−100 cm−1. A b i n i t i o calculations on 4‐mp which reproduce both the magnitude and shape of the experimental barrier to internal rotation in the ground state. The lowest energy methyl conformation places a hydrogen atom in the plane of the ring pointing away from the nitrogen lone pair. Finally, in both molecules we observe spectroscopic signatures of vibrational state mixing in the S 1 state. Density‐of‐states calculations on both molecules using the experimentally determined internal rotor energy levels predict a similar density of same‐symmetry states in the two molecules at a given energy. Experimental evidence is presented that the small V 6 barrier in 5‐mp leads to modest vibration/internal rotation coupling matrix elements of ∼1 cm−1. The high V 3 barrier in 4‐mp is observed to give strong vibration/internal rotation coupling in the case of the 6a 1 0(0a 1) level which shifts its position by 17 cm−1 from its companion 6a 1 0(1e) level due to interaction with an X 1(3a 2) vibration/internal rotation combination band.
Spectroscopy and photodissociation of Rydberg states of N2O95(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460940View Description Hide Description
The optical spectrum of N2O in the region from 80 000 to 87 000 cm−1 has been investigated by two‐ and three‐photon resonantmultiphoton ionization mass spectrometry. State symmetry identification has been performed by the use of linearly and circularly polarized light in both two‐ and three‐photon absorption, conclusively confirming the assignment of the spectrum as that of the 3pσ 1Π Rydberg state of N2O. The new spectra and polarization experiments also permit observation and analysis of previously unreported vibronic coupling effects in this state. Mass spectral data reveal significant variation in the degrees of fragmentation into NO+ and N+ 2 as a function of vibrational and rotational excitation in the intermediate state. An apparent progression of a previously unreported second electronic band is also observed and for which a possible assignment is discussed.
Submillimeter wave spectroscopy of XeH+ and XeD+95(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460941View Description Hide Description
The J=0–1 rotational transition of XeH+ and the J=1–2 transition of XeD+, which both occur near 390 GHz, have been studied by microwave absorption spectroscopy. For each of these all nine naturally occurring stable isotopes of xenon were detected. The magnetic hyperfine structure for the 1 2 9Xe forms and the electric quadrupole–magnetic hyperfine structure of both 1 3 1Xe forms were fully resolved and analyzed to determine the C I and e Q q 0 constants. The scaled spin–rotation parameter C I /(g I B) is found to be practically identical in XeH+ and HI, as it is also in the isoelectronic pair KrD+ –DBr/HBr. The available magnetic field was too small to resolve the rotational Zeeman effect, but the rotational g factor of XeH+ was estimated from Zeeman broadening. The mass‐independent Dunham parameters U 01, ΔH 01, and ΔXe 01 were determined from the very accurate microwave frequencies combined with higher order Dunham coefficients from published Fourier‐transform infrared (FTIR)spectroscopy of XeH+ . Although it was not practical to observe XeH+ or XeD+ in excited vibrational states, we were able to detect the J=0–1 (v=1) transition of ArD+ .
The interaction of rotation and local mode tunneling in the overtone spectra of symmetrical hydrides95(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460942View Description Hide Description
In the ''local mode limit'' where the tunneling time for vibrational energy exchange is long compared to the classical rotational period, one expects that the effective rotational Hamiltonian will reflect the reduced symmetry of the local mode state. Hamiltonians in the local mode basis are given for interaction of rotation and local mode tunneling for molecules of the XH2, XH3, and XH4 type. Transformation of these Hamiltonians to a symmetrized basis (which diagonalizes the vibrational problem), produces rotational couplings between the vibrational states. Relations between the spectroscopic constants are derived that are less restrictive than those given earlier by Halonen and Robiette, but reduce to them when the assumptions of their model are met. The present algebraic procedure can be easily extended to include higher order terms. The effect of these couplings is to reduce the size of the pure vibrational splittings. This is due to the fact that in the rovibrational problem, in general, one must reorient the angular momentum vector in the body frame as well as transfer the vibrational action between bonds. This increases the length of the tunneling path and thus decreases the rate of vibrational energy transfer. Model calculations show that a simple semiclassical picture can rationalize the observed trends.
Piezomodulation study of Langmuir–Blodgett films of copper phthalocyanine derivatives95(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460943View Description Hide Description
A method for quantitative analysis of piezomodulation spectra of a thin film on a substrate, including the internal reflection in the system, is presented. This method is applied to Langmuir–Blodgett (LB) films of copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) derivatives on glass substrates. A uniaxial stress was applied along the symmetry axis of the film. The spectra were measured in the region from 1.5 to 2.4 eV in three configurations; transmission, reflection from the film side, and reflection from the substrate side. The optimum Lorentzian parameters and their changes due to the stress are determined by the least‐mean‐square fit. The microstructures and electronic states of the LB film are discussed from the stress effects. The very small feature, which is hardly identified in the absorption spectra because of the large Frenkel exciton band, is attributed to a charge transfer(CT) excitation.
Semiclassical calculation of self‐broadening in O2, N2, and CO Raman spectra95(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460944View Description Hide Description
Semiclassical calculations of the J and temperature dependence of the Raman Q 1 and S 0 self‐broadened linewidths of O2, N2, and CO have been performed within the framework of Robert and Bonamy [J. Phys. (Paris) 1 0, 923 (1979)] with J=0–30 and T=300–1500 K. The calculation of the CO self‐broadened R 1linewidths are also reported for T=100–300 K and J=0–20. Comparison of the results of these calculations with recent experiments shows good overall agreement.
Polarized and depolarized Raman scattering of 35Cl2 with excitation from the visible to the ultraviolet region95(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460945View Description Hide Description
We have recorded high‐resolution polarized and depolarized Raman spectra of isotopically pure 35Cl2 using the argon ion laser lines 501.7, 496.5, 488.0, 476.5, 457.9, 363.8, 351.1, and 333.6 nm and the krypton ion laser line 413.1 nm. Overtone progressions can be observed for 413.1 nm and UV excitation. The spectral band shapes of the overtones show a systematic variation with excitation frequency. The relative intensities of the overtone bands have been calculated with second order perturbation theory. The spectral feature of the overtones can be explained by resonance Raman scattering via the repulsive 1Π1u state. The 1Π1u potential was determined with a high accuracy. This is possible because the Raman band intensities are very sensitive to the location of the potential curves of the involved excited scattering states. The spectral feature of the fundamental band excited in the UV region can be explained assuming a destructive interference effect between resonant and nonresonant Raman scattering resulting from adjacent highly lying states. This effect can be monitored via the depolarization ratio of the fundamental transitions, the change in relative intensities between the different Q branches of the fundamental bands and comparison of the observed and calculated overall band intensities of the fundamental and overtone bands excited with different laser lines.
Negative‐ion mass spectrometric study of ion‐pair formation in the vacuum ultraviolet. V. CF4→F−+CF+ 395(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.461782View Description Hide Description
Ion‐pair formation from photoexcitation of CF4 has been studied by negative‐ion mass spectrometry using synchrotron radiation in the 11–31 eV photon energy range. Negative F− ions have been observed. The appearance energy in the F−photodissociation efficiency curve is about 2 eV higher than the thermochemical threshold for the formation of the ground‐state ions F−(1 S g ) and CF+ 3(X̃ 1 A ' 1). The peak features observed in the spectrum are interpreted as resulting from transitions to Rydberg states with the 1 T 2 symmetry. Assignments of the peaks have been made on the basis of the previous work on photoabsorption cross‐section curves of CF4. Repulsive Rydberg states converging to CF+ 4(X̃ 2 T 1, Ã 2 T 2) give the strong and broad peaks in the F− efficiency curve. Conversion to the ion‐pair state is considered to occur through the avoided potential surface crossings along the dissociation coordinate of the CF3—F bond. In contrast, the n p t 2Rydberg states (n≥4) converging to CF+ 4(C̃ 2 T 2) show long vibrational progressions. The radiative and nonradiative decay pathways for these Rydberg states are discussed.
Photoionization mass spectrometric study of Si2H695(1991); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.460946View Description Hide Description
The adiabatic I.P. of Si2H6 obtained by a photoionization mass spectrometric study at two temperatures is 9.74±0.02 eV. The first fragment, Si2H+ 4, initially appears with a shallow slope at ≤10.04±0.02 eV, and with a much steeper slope at ≤10.81±0.02 eV. It is argued that the initial onset corresponds to formation of H2SiSiH+ 2, while the steeper onset is attributed to formation of H3SiSiH+. The second fragment, Si2H5, has an appearance potential of ≤11.59±0.02 eV (11.41±0.03 is a probable value). Successive decomposition leads to Si2H+ 2 (from Si2H+ 4 ) and Si2H+ 3 (from Si2H+ 5 ). The photoion yield curve for Si2H+ 3 also displays shallow and steep onsets. Upper limits for the appearance potentials can be readily extracted, but the true thermochemical onsets are less well defined. Heats of formation (or upper limits) are presented for each of these species. For Si2H+ 6, Si2H+ 5, and Si2H+ 4, the experimental values are in good agreement with recent a b i n i t i o calculations. For the daughter species, the experimental values exceed the calculated ones, as expected.

By: Zaheer Ali Posted: Oct. 11 2012 12:42 AM 0 Brendan Smialowski/AFP/Getty Images While President Obama has not presented a perfect candidacy for Muslim Americans, Zaheer Ali argues at the Islamic Monthly that his domestic policies, unlike those championed by Mitt Romney, have benefited all Americans and he has created the discursive space within which to challenge policies that are disagreeable. ... THE PRAGMATIC CHOICE In the nearly four years since Obama was elected, the hope of idealism and transformation embodied in his campaign has given way to the reality of pragmatism and reform; and one of the biggest complaints against him is that he has failed to live up to the promises of his campaign. It may be easy to dismiss disappointment in Obama as the result of people projecting their own unrealistic expectations on him, but there have been moments when he has endorsed policies that contradict his campaign rhetoric. In particular, President Obama's continuation of some of the worst Bush-Cheney policies in the "war on terror" are extremely disturbing and troubling to any U.S. citizen who believes in the Constitution and its protections of civil liberties, even more so to Muslim Americans who have witnessed how these policies adversely affect Muslims at home and abroad. This alone would seem a compelling reason to oppose Obama's reelection in 2012. A DOMESTIC AGENDA Almost immediately after being sworn in as president, Barack Obama began taking steps to repair the United States' relationship with the Muslim world. The first interview he conducted as president was with the Arabic television network, Al-Arabiya, on Jan. 26, 2009. In the interview, President Obama affirmed his commitment "that the United States has a stake in the well-being of the Muslim world, that the language we use has to be a language of respect." He even mentioned "Muslim members in my family" and referred to his time in Indonesia as an indication of his familiarity and respect for Muslim people ... A REPUDIATION OF ISLAMOPHOBIA On foreign relations and especially national security, President Obama's record is more complicated. He did end war operations in Iraq, put the United States on track to withdraw from Afghanistan by 2014, and outlawed torture -- all deserving commendation. And under his command, Osama bin Laden was killed ... Read Zaheer Ali's entire piece at the Islamic Monthly.

China Celebrates 60
Kuhn, Robert Lawrence, Chief Executive (U.S.)
Beijing: October 1, 2009. Today China celebrated the 60th anniversary of the People's Republic with an outpouring of national pride unrivaled in Chinese history, perhaps in world history. I attended all the events.
It began the night before at a state dinner in the massive Great Hall of the People in Tiananmen Square, where all national leaders and some 4,000 officials and guests heard Premier Wen Jiabao speak of China's accomplishments and challenges. The day itself commenced with a celebratory, reflective address to the nation by President Hu Jintao, who was dressed in a high-style, pointedly non-Western, Sun Yat-sen jacket (often referred to as the "Mao suit").
Then came a massive military parade, showing off over a dozen new weapon systems, ranging from cruise missiles, Dongfeng-21C anti-ship missiles (designed to interdict U.S. aircraft carriers) and Dongfeng-32 intercontinental nuclear-armed missiles to attack helicopters, amphibious assault tanks and unmanned aerial vehicles- all manufactured domestically. Military leaders stressed that a nation's militan' policy, not its military weapons, is what matters. China's weapons, they asserted, are only for defense- but it was a hard sell to wary foreigners near and far. On the other hand, the Chinese people, never forgetting the long century of foreign invasions, occupations, humiliations and depredations, were unalloyed in their pride that the Chinese people had finally, as Chairman Mao Zedong had promised six decades earlier, "stood up" in the world.
Then followed the civilian procession, which featured 36 formations, 60 floats, and a cast of 100,000 (yes, 100,000; no mistake). Each province was represented/as were various sectors of society from space to sports. In the cool, clear evening, 60,000 performed Chinese music and dance amidst waves of intricately dynamic colors and kaleidoscopic shapes- topped off by a breathtaking fireworks display, twice the size of the Olympics opening ceremonies, that set the city aglow. Two gigantic LCD screens, each some 400 square feet, the largest of their kind in the world, afforded everyone a perfect view.
Yet, China's problems clearly remain serious. For the celebrations, Beijing was under severe lockdowns. Hotels and streets near the parade route were closed and local residents were forbidden to look out of their windows for fear of snipers. Police were everywhere. SWAT teams with police dogs searched every room of every nearby hotel, my room not exempted. One Chinese minister noted wryly that if such dxaconian measures were required to assure the people's safety, China today couldn't be "all that glorious."
Nonetheless, astonishing itself as well as the world, China had transformed itself from national destitution, its people in perennial poverty, and from international irrelevancy, a country ignored or ostracized by the community of nations, into an economic superpower involved with every major issue in foreign affairs and competing in every arena of h Liman endeavor. From trade, business and finance to diplomacy. defense and security; from science, technology and innovation to culture, media and sports, China has global impact.
Some worry about a looming "China threat"- an aggressive, mercantile, expansionist empire that threatens American supremacy in all sectors. (The planners of the military parade certainly did not have "mitigating the China threat" as part of their job descriptions.)
Others laud an emerging "China model"- economic and social freedoms combined with single-party political control and limited political rights- as an alternative to America's "Democracy model" for the developing world.
What do China's leaders, current and future, make of all this? We should appreciate how they thinknot as portrayed in foreign media but as they sense and express it. For several years, I've had numerous opportunities to speak directly with many of China's leaders. The best way to know China- the best way to do business with China - is to know what motivates China's leaders and what drives their policies. …
