Film Description
Wim Wenders directs this thought-provoking emotional drama, which explores the anxiety and disillusionment of post 9/11 America. Michelle Williams stars as Lana, who returns to the United States to begin her studies after years of living abroad with her missionary father. But instead of focusing on her education, Lana sets out to find her only other living relative: her uncle Paul (John Diehl), her deceased mother's brother. A Vietnam veteran, Paul is a reclusive vagabond with deep emotional war wounds. A tragic event witnessed by both of them opens their eyes to the wrongs of the world, and leads to a tentative yet meaningful family reconciliation.

There is no place safe anymore. I am glad the officer was there, if she hadn't been this would have turned out a lot differently.

There is no place safe anymore. I am glad the officer was there, if she hadn't been this would have turned out a lot differently.
The second story sounds more like real life, if in the same situation I would not identify myself without having my gun drawn and aimed first. This idiot had threatened to kill, he is not entitled to any you shoot first and then I'll defend myself ethic. Once "I'll kill you" came out of his mouth with a gun in his hands, I'd have shot him right through the cover they put over you. I would not give him the chance to start shooting if at all possible.

And you can be sure the prosecutor would have a field day with that one.
Prosecutor: "The bullet hole in the barber tunic clearly proves that this poor street urchin had NO WARNING and was shot down in cold blood. Your Honor, I would now like to call to the stand the mother of the victim who will describe in no uncertain terms how her precious boy was turning his life around."
Judge: "Proceed."

So have I.
About a year ago after coming back from an out of town trip, I headed over to the haircut place to get cleaned up. Unfortunately, it was ringed by police cars and news crews. Catching the news at home, I found out that not 30mins earlier a boyfriend of an employee there had gunned her down in the break room. Bummed boyfriend decided to "take her out," literally. He then shot himself and eliminated the need to prosecute and "correct" him. Had I driven just a bit quicker during my trip, I would have been sitting in the chair as the murderer opened fire. In this instance, he didn't turn it on everyone else in the shop. It could easily have gotten very ugly, beyond just the two involved.

"The flock sleep peaceably in their pasture at night because Sheepdogs stand ready to do violence on their behalf."
While the judge may hate people with guns, I fail to see how coming to the aid/defense of an armed felon could be seen as being tough on crime. I guess it would depend on his perception of which would be the gretest aid to reelection. That in turn would necessarily to some extent be based on the makeup of the electorate. What might fly in New York would likely crash in Idaho or Montana and other similar places.
"I do what I do." Cpl 'coach' Bowden, "Southern Comfort".
I agree it would be absurd, but not unheard of. Especially if it were a civil case where the family sued the defender for wrongful death or whatever they call it in NYC.

The irony in the PBA chair, police commish, and others congratulating a natural act of self defense that they'd just as soon deny any one other than a NYPD officer is just too thick on which not to choke.
Naturally I am grateful that officer Jones and the others were able to fend off the attack. Yet, I'm also annoyed that NYPD is currently doing all that they can to make the NY permitting process even more restrictive for the real targets of criminal predators of NYS, the unarmed populace. Why don't they want the same thing for the people? Well...that's a rhetorical question that many here can answer, but for crying out loud.
Good on Jones for being able to fight back, but dang I'm glad I left that stink-hole for good.

A championship scramble is a possibility.

When Melina was released by WWE back in 2011, it was natural for fans to wonder about what the future holds for her. Aside from making sporadic appearances on the independent wrestling circuit, she has largely been absent from the mainstream scene. Some wondered if she would sink so low as to resort to taking nude photos of herself to make money. To her credit, she has not done such things, unlike other stars who are selling naked Skype calls.

Not that she was next in line to be called up to the main roster by WWE or anything, but it looks like Zahra Schreiber is going to have to wait a bit before she can start working on Monday Night Raw and Smackdown. The belief is that management needs the controversy to fade away before they would consider putting her in front of the mainstream media again. The fact that Zahra can be seen naked might not sit too well with advertisers.

Pics: Eva Longoria Kisses Eduardo Cruz Over Chateau Marmont Lunch!
Eva Longoria was more concerned with kissing her man Eduardo Cruz's lips than the menu at LA's Chateau Marmont yesterday. Eva and Eduardo locked lips over lunch and cuddled close as they looked at one of their phones together. The pair went public as a couple in January and since then they haven't been shy about sharing PDA. Eduardo's also hanging on the West Coast to keep his sister Penelope Cruz and her husband Javier Bardem company while they tend to their new son Leo. Eva is apparently also planning to celebrate the arrival of another celebrity baby, as she's reportedly in charge of organizing Victoria Beckham's pink-filled shower.

After what Tony Parker put Eva Longoria through, she deserves a little happiness and some long awaited PDA, after her husband had dirty little secrets inside his cell phone, just waiting for Eva to find! So glad she did, b/c now Eva can be with someone, who's actutally worthy of her love!
3 years
So now we know the true reason she wanted to break up with Tony. I never believed her lies about him. How convienient for her she has made him into the cheater so he has to pay her! What goes around comes around.
3 years
Go Eva! Just saw that People Magazine reported Cindy Margolis the hottest cougar in the world. Demi Moore, Halle Berry, Courtney Cox and Madonna among other A-list celebrity cougars were listed in People Magazine's current on line poll. It was Margolis who was the overwhelming fan favorite winning the top spot as "Cougar." If Eva was on the list she would of won by far!
3 years
Stop you fool. Google her image and look at her without makeup and in a swimsuit. I am sure Tony could only take plain Eva for so long.

The garden at CM is the biggest paps staging ground there is - this is such a stunt! She's an idiot.

Obviously, yesterday's signing of Ryan Lilja (which is pending a physical) is quite a coup for John Elway & Co., following the season-ending injury to Dan Koppen.
But given that J.D. Walton may not be back at all this season, the lack of center experience for Manny Ramirez and C.J. Davis, and the apparent developmental struggles of Philip Blake, can we be sure the Broncos are done adding depth there?
Accordingly, another possibility has popped up, in the form of Geoff Hangartner (PFR), who was just released by Carolina.
Continue reading "Panthers release Hangartner; is he another center option for Denver?"
Apparently, the Broncos are no more excited by the possibility of having Manny Ramirez start at center than the rest of us. That is to say, they're not super into the idea.
According to Alex Marvez of Fox Sports, the team has extended an offer to recently retired 31-year-old Chiefs center Ryan Lilja (6-2, 290).
Lilja was a guard for most of his eight-year career, but excelled at center for Kansas City in 2012.
Continue reading "Report: Broncos trying to lure Lilja out of retirement"
Following the season-ending knee injury to center Dan Koppen, the Broncos have agreed to terms with lineman Steve Vallos (6-3, 310), pending a physical.
The 29-year-old Wake Forest alum has played in 42 games (nine starts) over six seasons in the NFL with Seattle, Cleveland, Jacksonville, and Philadelphia.
The Broncos are apparently about to find out whether Manny Ramirez or Philip Blake can cut it as an NFL center.
Incumbent center J.D. Walton is out until at least late October following surgery in June to clean out an infection in his surgically repaired left ankle.
When that infection was discovered, Denver re-signed Dan Koppen, who had filled in for Walton quite admirably in 2012.
Denver waived undrafted rookie tight end Lucas Reed on Friday and added former Kansas City tight end Jake O'Connell (6-3, 250) on Saturday to replace him.
In four seasons with the Chiefs, O'Connell started eight of the 35 games in which he appeared, totaling 15 catches for 108 yards and no touchdowns. Kansas City drafted him in the seventh round of the 2009 Draft.
Continue reading "Broncos sign TE Jake O'Connell, waive TE Lucas Reed"
The Broncos have inked 2013 first-rounder Sylvester Williams, who had been their only unsigned player. Denver selected the North Carolina defensive tackle 28th overall, and he figures to play a significant role within the team's line rotation.
According to Mike Klis, the contract is worth $7.6M over four seasons, including $3.9M up front and $6.1M in guarantees.
According to Bill Williamson, the Broncos will visit with offensive lineman Travelle Wharton (6-4, 312), who was recently released by the Bengals after a year on IR.
Wharton spent his first eight seasons in Carolina, which of course means he's well-acquainted with John Fox and line coach Dave Magazu. He visited with the Panthers on Tuesday, but left without a deal.
Originally drafted by Carolina in 2004, the former Gamecock has started all 99 regular season games in which he's played, all of them with the Panthers.
As we've been expecting for several months now, the Broncos released linebacker Joe Mays on Tuesday.
In one of the bigger mistakes of John Elway's tenure running their football operations, Denver signed Mays to a three-year, $12M deal in March of 2012.
The contract included $4.5M in guarantees, including $500K of his 2013 salary.
Denver's nightmarish July continues, as Adam Schefter reports that all-universe linebacker Von Miller is facing a four-game drug suspension from the NFL.
Miller, who received the only vote for 2012 DPOY not marked for J.J. Watt, is said to be appealing the ban.
Obviously, there's no player more integral to the Broncos' prospects in 2013 and beyond than Peyton Manning, but Von may be a close second.
Updated 2:26pm ET
Continue reading "Von Miller faces four-game suspension which may stem from 2011 positive test"
According to CBS4's Vic Lombardi, the Broncos have gotten serious in their negotiation with Ryan Clady toward a long-term deal. Lombardi reports that the team's latest offer includes $33M in guarantees, which would cover the first three years of a multiyear contract.
If that's $33M in full guarantees - meaning there are no outs for the team, like the one that resulted in Elvis Dumervil's release - then a deal must indeed be getting pretty close, as CBS4 suggests.
Reports from the DP's Mike Klis have varied wildly, pegging the guaranteed portion of Denver's final 2012 offer at $28M last July, and at just $16M more recently.
Continue reading "Lombardi: Broncos have (wisely) offered Clady $33M in guarantees"

dc.description.abstract | Air traffic controller cognitive processes are a limiting factor in providing safe and efficient flow of traffic. Therefore, there has been work in understanding the factors that drive controllers decision-making processes. Prior work has identified that the airspace structure, defined by the reference elements, procedural elements and pattern elements of the traffic, is important for abstraction and management of the traffic. This work explores in more detail this relationship between airspace structure and air traffic controller management techniques. This work looks at the current National Airspace System (NAS) and identifies different types of high altitude sectors, based on metrics that are likely to correlate with tasks that controllers have to perform. Variations of structural patterns, such as flows and critical points were also observed. These patterns were then related to groupings by origins and destinations of the traffic. Deeper pilot-controller voice communication analysis indicated that groupings by flight plan received consistent and repeatable sequences of commands, which were identified as techniques. These repeated modifications generated patterns in the traffic, which were naturally associated with the standard flight plan groupings and their techniques. The identified relationship between flight plan groupings and management techniques helps to validate the grouping structure-base abstraction introduced by Histon and Hansman (2008). This motivates the adoption of a grouping-focused analysis of traffic structures on the investigation of how new technologies, procedures and concepts of operations will impact the way controllers manage the traffic. Consideration of such mutual effects between structure and controllers' cognitive processes should provide a better foundation for training and for engineering decisions that include a human-centered perspective. | en_US |

Mortgage bill faces tough road in Congress
By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- A sharply divided Congress isn't likely to jump at President Barack Obama's challenge for quick passage of a mortgage refinancing bill that supporters say could help millions of homeowners save big each year and boost the economy.
Obama praised the legislation in his State of the Union speech last week, saying the proposal would help more homeowners with mortgages backed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac take advantage of low interest rates and refinance their loans.
Even with mortgage rates near a 50-year low, Obama said, too many families that have never missed a payment and want to refinance are being turned down.
"That's holding our entire economy back, and we need to fix it," the president said. "Right now, there's a bill in this Congress that would give every responsible homeowner in America the chance to save $3,000 a year by refinancing at today's rates. Democrats and Republicans have supported it before."
The economy's slow recovery from the recession gives the idea urgency, Obama said. "Send me that bill," he told members of Congress listening to his speech in the House chamber.
The proposal is part of a push by Democrats and the White House to help homeowners take advantage of low interest rates as a way to help the housing market recover and to give the economy a shot in the arm.
While the bill could gain traction in the Democratic-controlled Senate, it faces a rough road in the GOP-run House, where many Republicans favor scaling back the government's role in the housing market as a way of aiding the economy. Similar versions of the measure died in the House and Senate's lame duck sessions last year.
"At the moment, it's an uphill battle," said Rep. Peter Welch, D-Vt., who plans to file the House version of the bill.
Welch said he will reach out to Republicans this year in hopes of building more support, but the bill's association with the government-controlled Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the federal housing agencies partly blamed for the collapse of the housing market, hurts its support base among GOP lawmakers.
"The American taxpayers have already sunk $190 billion dollars into the operations of Fannie and Freddie," said Rep. Randy Neugebauer, R-Texas, a member of the House Financial Services Committee. "It's time that we wind their operations down instead of using them as a piggy bank for failed programs that further delay the housing recovery. "
In the Senate, Democrats Bob Menendez of New Jersey and Barbara Boxer of California have legislation to aid borrowers who are current on their loans backed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, but who are not able to refinance because their home values have declined too much.
Nearly 12 million homeowners have Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac loans and stand to benefit refinancing, the two senators said. Many can't refinance at a lower rate because of red tape and high fees. The red tape has reduced competition among banks, so borrowers pay higher interest rates than they would if they were able to shop around more, according to the senators.
The bill also would reduce up-front fees that borrowers pay on refinances and eliminate appraisal costs for all borrowers. The measure seeks to expand the Obama administration's Home Affordable Refinancing Program, which saves an average homeowner about $2,500 per year, they said.
"Homeowners will have more money in their pockets, Fannie and Freddie will see fewer foreclosures, and the housing market and economy will continue building momentum," Boxer said.
Among the bill's supporters are the Mortgage Bankers Association, the National Association of Realtors and the National Association of Home Builders.
"It is another tool that can be out there to help stabilize the housing market and kick start the economy if consumers can, in fact, put another $100 bucks in their pockets every month," said John Hudson, government affairs chairman of the Association of Mortgage Professionals.
Similar proposals by Boxer and Menendez last year got bogged down in the Senate Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs Committee. Republican attempts to add amendments on other housing issues beyond refinancing led to a stalemate.
Twenty Senate Democrats are co-sponsors of this year's bill, but no Republicans have signed on.
"I support finding ways to smartly streamline the refinance process, but I'm not sure that eliminating all documentation requirements makes sense," said GOP Sen. Bob Corker of Tennessee, a committee member. "I also think we need to quickly move beyond short-term stimulus and start focusing on the structural issues in our housing finance system."
Sen. Mike Crapo, the committee's top Republican, declined through a spokeswoman to comment on the bill.
Welch's House bill also died during the last Congress. Welch accused Republicans of not wanting to give Obama an election-year boost by passing the mortgage refinance measure.
"Last year was even tougher because it was an election year," said Welch. "The Republican leadership wanted Obama to fail."

Cody 'Codeman' Hadley
- Contender Right Hand Middle Weight
Origin: Fountain, CO . USA
Date of Birth: 06-26-1986
Height: 6' 2"
Weight: 173 lbs
Forearm: 14.5 inches
Biceps: 16 inches
Arm Wrestling Style: Fast hit and go wherever I believe it should go
Grew up in Fountain, Colorado doing "extreme" sports like dirt biking, skate boarding and snow boarding. Went to college in Daytona Beach, Florida, started my career in Huntington Beach, California and it moved me to Tempe, Arizona and now St. Louis, MO.
Arm Wrestling History
Jim Northern was the man who got me into this awesome sport in 2004. Pulled against Greg Helms, Noah Sanders and Jason Rivas at Florida State 2004 in Jacksonville and been "hooked" ever since.
Toughest Opponent
Luke Kindt, Vazgen Soghoyan, Ovi Dragonmir.
Toughest Match
My favorite/toughest match was against Luke Kindt @ UAL III left handed. I lost that match but learned a lot from it and my day will come.
Tournaments Won
A lot of top 3 finishes at various tournaments through the years. No major tournament victories yet.
UAL Titles Won
2nd place 165 right and left hand @ UAL Black Bull Beat Down II. The day I decided to only pull open.
Profession outside of Arm Wrestling
Engineering work on military aircraft.
Best Training Advice
Consistency and variety. I have found that staying consistent and doing new workouts to "surprise" the muscles leads to big gains in strength. Table time once a week and gym workouts 3 times a week seems to be just right. Work a lot of hand, wrist, back and bicep/tricep exercises but work the chest/shoulders and legs just as hard for a balanced body.
Career Goals
To excel and grow in my work as an engineer and to become the best arm wrestler I can be.
Aside from working out and arm wrestling I enjoy the outdoors, watching movies and building/riding custom motorcycles.
Who inspires you and why?
The best in the arm wrestling world. Watching others succeed gives me the motivation to train even harder and one day succeed.
Your favorite Athlete other than yourself, and why?
Too difficult to pick just one. There are so many talented, strong, and motivated people it's hard to pick just one favorite.

This is a small game I made in my free time that's actually an engine for an SRPG I want to make someday.
All medals are now fixed.
By the way, Abnf got his score in testing before things were finalized. Although it is possible to beat his score, if you're patient enough.
If you want to download this game to your PSP, along with over a hundred others, go to this link and follow the video's instructions:
Should this game get a sequel, players can expect...
- Cooperative and competitive multiplayer
- Party battles
- Terrain that impedes movement
- Destructible cover
- Explodable gas tanks
- Weapons with stopping power
- Enemies that shoot back
- Larger arenas
Rated 5 / 5 stars
The idea is really original, and not only that, the music makes it sound awesome! It's a really good game.
Thanks! I actually put it on your PSP the last time we hung out, so you can play it whenever you want. Just be prepared for a bit of lag.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Phenomenal game. The soundtrack fit perfectly, the graphics were bland, yet fitting. I felt like a total badass running around with a revolver, and I quickly learned that sniper rifles don't kill all noobz0rz. It has a definite learning curve, and you really pulled off the turn based shooter, which is something I've never seen before. The levels were nicely designed, not just "more zombiez equals harder". The imp levels require mobility, the goliath level really made me feel I was fighting a tank. If I get bored with campaign, I jump to arcade mode. It's a stepping stone, but you set the bar pretty damn high. Kudos my friend.
Wow, thank you for the kind words!! :)
EDIT: I recently heard of a game called Valkyria Chronicles. It's basically this game but better. Damn those developers, stealing my ideas...
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
Not bas at all but, huh, medals don't work.
Funny, they work for everyone else. Update your Flash player, try changing browsers, refresh the page, clear your cache and/or cookies, and check your internet connection. If your connection spazzes at the moment you unlock a medal, the request won't go through.
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars
Pretty good prototype
I liked the gameplay; I thought the turn-based aspect fit the game dynamics really well. We've all seen hundreds of zombie shooters where it's just a hassle to try and change weapons to meet the particular demands of the level, this was obviously different. The sfx were good, thought I didn't like the choice of music for this type of game. I thought the amount of movement varying per weapon was a little unusual, especially since it didn't seem to correlate with weapon weight (heavy weapons = less movement), but I thought that concept worked well with the strategy aspect of the game.
I'm not going to complain about the graphics re: characters and enemies, and I realize this is a stepping stone to a larger project, but you could've made the terrain a bit less bland. Also, using a pic from Zombieland for the title screen is probably setting the expectations for the graphics a bit high and resulting in so much negative feedback. I would also recommend making the level names a bit more descriptive since you've stated that each level has its' own unique challenges. Adding some sort of general radar map in the viewable screen, even if it's hazy or doesn't show every approaching zombie would probably be a plus since your first X number of shots are just guesswork. This is a good jumping off point for a shooter, and I look forward to the finished product.
Good review!
Music selection - I actually thought that I picked a good song for this. When I heard it on the Audio Portal I was taken in by its relaxed style mixed with some stone-cold techno. I felt this did a good job of setting a mood of thinking and prioritizing weaker zombies as well as blasting their heads off. Granted, the music does get a bit annoying; I remember when I tested this I thought it reminded me of one of those old 2006 Flash games. The limited music selection definitely makes it feel dated.
Weapon weight - I thought I made this quite realistic. A sniper rifle with enough power to penetrate several zombies is heavy and requires a lot of equipment for a proper shot, and an M60 is so heavy it's usually a mounted gun. Uzis tend to be very small, being submachine guns, and therefore would be light. Not sure what you're getting at with this.
Level names - I also feel like I did a decent job here, too. For instance, Lilliputia is an island in Gulliver's Travels known for having tiny people, and Ninja obviously implies the enemies are going to come at you quickly. I understand a couple of the names, like "Imps" could be a bit cryptic, but they didn't seem too bad to me.
As for a radar, this could be a decent idea. The implementation of simple zombies was done as a way to test out the engine itself, but when I realized how darned fun it was, I decided to make a small game out of it. Since I didn't put that much forethought into the whole concept of endless waves, I didn't bother with a radar, but that's not a bad idea.
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars
The mechanics aren't too shabby. I typically hate top-down shooters because of the independent movements for shooting and running. The turn-based action does slow down game play a bit and the graphics could be better. But it looks like this is merely a prototype for a better game. Keep up the good work. I'm interested to see what you eventually come out with.
Thanks! If you're hoping for a more sped-up game, I'm sorry to say you won't be interested in the bigger project, as that too will be turn-based. But ideally it will feature enemies that shoot back at you and cover to duck behind! :)

News Print this page Subscribe to this RSS feed "No signs of slowing down after 30 years as a Mendham EMT" - Dailyrecord.com Fri. Jan 28th 2011
As Quoted from the Daily Record Newspaper by Daily Record staff writer Vanessa Vera Roman. "When most of Paula Oswald's peers were concerned with getting a learner's permit to drive, the then-16-year-old was more focused on her application to join the Mendham Township First Aid Squad. Coming from a family of first-responders, and growing up right across the street from the Ralston Engine Company and First Aid Squad, Oswald said it was important for her to join the squad as soon as she could. "It just seemed a natural step to be able to move into membership and be able to serve the community," said Oswald, now 46. Through the years, Oswald, who now lives in Morris Township, moved through the ranks in the Mendham Township squad, serving as captain and then president — even staying involved in the squad through her years as a student at The College of St. Elizabeth in Florham Park. Then, 15 years ago, as a certified CPR instructor, Oswald began teaching both borough and township first aid squads and became a "special member" of the Mendham Borough First Aid Squad. This year, Oswald was named captain of the Mendham Borough First Aid Squad and also continues in her 30th year of service with the Mendham Township squad. Oswald works fulltime for the state Department of Children and Families, inspecting child care centers. After that, she is on call to respond to emergency calls. In addition to being an emergency medical technician, Oswald is a certified CPR instructor with the American Red Cross and is part of the Apollo Team, a team of emergency responders and some clergy who provide emotional and psychological support for other emergency responders during crisises. Oswald's 30 years of service have gone by quickly, she said. "I think it becomes part of you," she said. "It is really our second job; we're just volunteers." Oswald's mother, Peggy Oswald, of Mendham Township, was a past captain who served on the township squad for about 20 years. Peggy Oswald and her husband Hank Oswald, who also served on the squad about 15 years, are now considered life members of the squad, though they have retired. Peggy Oswald remembers that at one point, three of her five children, including Paula, were involved in the squad at the same time. "It's very satisfying to help your fellow community people," she said. "If you belong to a community, you should be part of volunteer groups." Even though he's no longer an active member of the squad, Hank Oswald still feel he's part of it. "You never really give it up," he said. These days, Paula Oswald said she sees herself as more of a mentor, and she wants to build the squads with new and younger people. "We need other people if we're going to keep our volunteer status alive right now in the Mendhams," Paula Oswald said. "I want to be part of that responsibility, of trying to figure out ways to keep a volunteer-based system for my town." Thank you Paula for your outstanding service to the Mendham Township First Aid Squad Paula Oswald was named Captain of the Mendham Boro First Aid Squad. (front) This is Paula with her parents Peggy and Hank Oswald, who have served on the Ralston First Aid Squad. (dawn benko photo/2010 - dailyrecord) View all News Postings |

Development of a gallium-doped germanium far-infrared photoconductor direct hybrid two-dimensional array
Applied Optics, Vol. 42, Issue 12, pp. 2166-2173 (2003)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (560 KB)
To our knowledge, we are the first to successfully report a direct hybrid two-dimensional (2D) detector array in the far-infrared region. Gallium-doped germanium (Ge:Ga) has been used extensively to produce sensitive far-infrared detectors with a cutoff wavelength of ≅110 μm (2.7 THz). It is widely used in the fields of astronomy and molecular and solid spectroscopy. However, Ge:Ga photoconductors must be cooled below 4.2 K to reduce thermal noise, and this operating condition makes it difficult to develop a large format array because of the need for a warm amplifier. Development of Ge:Ga photoconductor arrays to take 2D terahertz images is now an important target in such research fields as space astronomy. We present the design of a 20 × 3 Ge:Ga far-infrared photoconductor array directly hybridized to a Si p-type metal-oxide-semiconductor readout integrated circuit using indium-bump technology. The main obstacles in creating this 2D array were (1) fabricating a monolithic Ge:Ga 2D array with a longitudinal configuration, (2) developing a cryogenic capacitive transimpedance amplifier, and (3) developing a technology for connecting the detector to the electronics. With this technology, a prototype Ge:Ga photoconductor with a direct hybrid structure has shown a responsivity as high as 14.6 A/W and a minimum detectable power of 5.6 × 10-17 W for an integration time of 0.14 s when it was cooled to 2.1 K. Its noise is limited by the readout circuit with 20 μV/Hz1/2 at 1 Hz. Vibration and cooling tests demonstrated that this direct hybrid structure is strong enough for spaceborne instruments. This detector array will be installed on the Japanese infrared satellite ASTRO-F.

Amit Agarwal at Digital Inspiration has been a fan of Common Craft for a while and we've always enjoyed his thoughful analysis of our videos and business. The news yesterday about our Web License prompted him to write about it - and question the business case for paying to embed videos. We welcome this kind of analysis.
He writes:
The good old YouTube days are over as Common Craft has created a new "web license" for their videos that would require bloggers and websites to pay a monthly... Continue Reading
For a while now, we've heard a common request from potential customers. They want an easy way to license and share Common Craft videos on their website. Today we're announcing a new partnership with video sharing company Wistia that will help us serve this need with our new "Web License."
A Little Background...
We license our videos to individuals and organizations. Two of our most popular licenses (Individual and Site) are for offline use. Customers download video files for use on intranets/... Continue Reading
We've published a new video called "Secure Websites in Plain English"
Security is obviously an important part of using the Web. Thankfully, through cooperation between a number of organizations, standards have been developed to communicate when a site is secure. Unfortunately these clues are not always known to everyday Web users. This video covers the basics of web site security - the common threats, the basics of encryption and how to tell when a site is secure.
The video also covers a... Continue Reading
California's controversial Proposition 8 is back in the news, which means a fresh round of people asking if we made the video on You Tube that supports the ban on gay marriage. Though the video could be confused for a Common Craft video, it's not.
Let me be as clear. We would never, ever make such a video. Aside from our own views on the subject, we recognize that dealing in polarizing political issues is not good for our business. Our goal is to be as unbiased as possible and make videos that... Continue Reading
Today we published a new video called Protecting Online Reputations in Plain English.
Aimed at younger or inexperienced web users, this video helps explain the long-term risks of sharing inappropriate photos, videos and stories on the Web. We've seen the stories and heard personal accounts about people who shared an inappropriate photo that eventually caused them to lose their job or miss an opportunity. Preventing this kind of problem can come from increased awareness about how the Web works... Continue Reading
Daniel Sevitt of EyeView wrote a great article on ReelSEO.com called "The Three Types of Online Video for Business." The article deserves a full read, but I was struck by this simple diagram that illustrates the types of videos and their expected outcomes.

This video was made from the raw, unedited footage from the making of Twitter Search in Plain English.
Watch another time-lapse Common Craft video shoot here.
Today we published a new video called Cloud Computing in Plain English:
This title has been one of our most requested and for good reason. Cloud Computing is a subject that has an explanation problem - people have a hard time understanding it because it's difficult to explain quickly. Like Social Media, it's a subject that is very broad and lacks broad consensus in terms of clear explanations. Our hope with this video is to lay bit of groundwork so people can see the big ideas.
We asked a... Continue Reading
Almost anyone can make a video and put it online, but there are relatively few good models for earning a living from online videos. We've been experimenting over a couple of years and believe more than ever that video licensing is a model that has huge potential.
The Current Options
Of course there's the advertising model. A video is made, it attracts eyeballs, eyeballs are distracted by ads. A tiny percentage of people click the ads and the video host and video owner make a bit of money. It... Continue Reading
Videos in our "Money" category have been a focus for us this year and we're excited to announce a new pack of six video called the "Financial Basics Pack." Packs are groups of Common Craft videos that can be purchased together for a 15% discount.

Sleep Apnea Treatment The Center for Sleep Apnea treats sleep apnea and snoring with our painless FDA-approved device. Let us test to see whether CSADA™ will help you. It's completely painless.
An often overlooked side-effect of snoring and sleep apnea is that they can keep a bed partner from sleeping, thereby causing daytime sleepiness and other medical problems associated with inadequate sleep. Many patients have told us that they and their partner routinely sleep in separate rooms. The CSADA™ appliance can bring them back together. And most important of all, it can save your life by successfully helping you to enjoy deeper sleep throughout the night without snoring, choking or gasping for air. Thanks to advances in dental sleep medicine, we can effectively treat patients who suffer from snoring, obstructive sleep apnea, and upper airway resistance syndrome using oral appliance therapy.

Pneumonia is an inflammation of the lungs. It can be caused by any one of 33 types of pneumococci, by many other bacteria, or by viruses. Last fortnight, in the Journal of the American Medical Association, Dr. Paul Roberts Cannon of the University of Chicago warned physicians of another, "manmade" form of the disease: oil pneumonia.
Oil pneumonia can be caused by: 1) constant use of oily nose drops; 2) nightly doses of mineral oil for constipation; 3) forced feedings of cod-liver or halibut-liver oil to rebellious children. Often the oil slides down the...

"I would like to thank you for your help and assistance with this relocation. I am happy to say that this has been by far, the smoothest relocation I have ever had. I am not kidding. From day one, everything has been taken care of extremely well. The delivery went well. Apparently, nothing has suffered or has been damaged. Thank you again for your great work. It has been a real pleasure to be assisted by you and Arpin!"
"Your team is amazing in their communication, attention to detail, and providing excellent customer service to Sabre's employees and their families for their packing, shipping, and storage needs. Moving to and from an assignment can be terribly stressful for all parties involved, but you and your team really go above and beyond the normal expectations to relieve that stress from the employees and their families."
Our agent, Golden Services, with locations in Lakewood, Lacey, and Anacortes, WA, has happily partnered with Operation Homefront, an organization that provides emergency, financial, and other assistance to the families of service members and wounded warriors.
On Saturday, August 17, 2013 at Golden Services' location in Lakewood, the annual Back Pack Brigade took place. Over 900 military students were supplied with backpacks and a variety of school supplies. Those that contributed to the cause ranged from Golden Services' wonderful team members, community residents, and donations from the region's Dollar Tree locations.
Along with Golden Services' efforts, our agent, Sourdough Transfer in Anchorage and Fairbanks, AL, donated their time and resources for the cause. Horizon Van Lines in Seattle, WA and Anchorage, AL also helped out.
For more information about Operation Homefront, you can click here.
Arpin is committed to reducing moving waste and giving back to the planet.
