28 of Our Most Anticipated February YA Books
February may be the shortest month of the year, but there’s nothing lacking in its bookish offerings. Kicking off with some of the most anticipated new voices in YA, sprinkled with gorgeous releases from some already beloved voices, and ending with a collection of historical rainbow joy, it’s truly a month of magic both figurative and literal. Below, check out twenty-eight of the titles we’re most excited for, and treat yourself to a new book for every day of the month!
The Disturbed Girl’s Dictionary, by NoNieqa Ramos (February 1)
Macy’s dictionary is full of so many words that describe all the tough times she’s having right now, but the only one people want to label her with is “disturbed.” Never mind that she doesn’t feel safe even in her own home, with the guys her mom brings in and a regularly empty fridge. Never mind that her father’s in prison and her brother’s been taken by Child Protective Services. Never mind that her two best friends are all she has, and they have their own struggles. Ramos is a powerful new voice in YA that you won’t forget anytime soon.
The Belles, by Dhonielle Clayton (February 6)
Pause for a moment of cover admiration. Okay, now, let’s discuss one of the most highly anticipated fantasy YAs of ever, shall we? Camellia is a Belle, someone who controls beauty in the world of Orleans, where beauty reigns supreme. And she’s angling to be the top Belle, chosen by the queen to tend to the royal family and be accepted all over as the best. But when the Belles get to court, they see that in the palace of beauty, dark and ugly secrets have taken hold, and being top Belle is nothing like what she imagined it would be…and her powers aren’t either. When she’s put to the ultimate test, forcing a choice between loyalty to the Belles and aiding the royal family, what will she choose?
All We Can Do is Wait, by Richard Lawson (February 6)
Noted entertainment writer Lawson may be known for his humor, but his first foray into noveldom is a heartbreaker for sure. It explores loss, grieving, moving forward, and changing relationships in the aftermath of a Boston-area bridge collapse that changes the lives of five teens forever, forcing long-held secrets and unspoken fears out into the open as they contemplate how they’ll move forward if their loved ones are lost.
American Panda, by Gloria Chao (February 6)
This fresh-voiced debut introduces Mei, a Taiwanese American teen who can’t quite seem to live up to her parents’ plans, though that won’t stop her from trying. They want her to be a doctor and marry Taiwanese; she can’t stand biology and her affection lies with Darren Takahashi, her Japanese classmate. She pushes forward anyway, a seventeen-year-old freshman at MIT, exactly as her parents dreamed. But then she reconnects with her brother, Xing, whose failure to comply with his parents’ wishes regarding dating led to his ostracization from the family, and now she can’t help asking herself: is it worth it to be exactly who they want her to be, or is it time to strike out on her own?
Winterfolk, by Janel Colby (February 6)
Rain’s settled into life among the Winterfolk, the homeless people living outside the fringes of Seattle whom she imagines to be invisible. Then word comes that the Winterfolk will be swept out, and her only hope for survival is to have her fellow homeless friend King take her to Seattle. But when they’re separated during a dangerous night in the city, Rain learns there’s more to urban survival than she imagined, and that she isn’t quite as invisible as she imagined, either.
Down and Across, by Arvin Ahmadi (February 6)
Scott’s a bit of a flake,—a problem when college applications are nearing deadline and your parents are the “pick a practical career” type. His master plan? Sneak off to D.C. to find the psychology professor whose study about stick-to-itiveness strongly resonated with him, making him think there might be a solution to his problem. Instead he finds Fiona, a college girl who aspires to write crossword puzzles and takes Scott on a wild ride through a night of mishaps, crosswords, and the unexpected that he’ll never forget.
The Apocalypse of Elena Mendoza, by Shaun David Hutchinson (February 6)
Elena isn’t like everybody (anybody?) else. For one thing, she’s the product of a virgin birth. For another, she hears voices—one that tells her she can heal her crush, Freddie, from a gunshot. One that keeps telling her to heal, even though every time she does, people disappear. Are the powers a gift from God? Is the world coming to an end? Mysteries follow Elena wherever she goes, and faith may be the only explanation.
The Last to Let Go, by Amber Smith (February 6)
When Brooke’s mother kills Brooke’s abusive father, it throws all the plans she had for positive life changes into upheaval. Now she’s barely keeping her head above water as she navigates a new school, her relationships with her remaining family, and what a new crush says about her sexuality. Meanwhile, no one’s sure exactly what happened on the day that changed everything, but Brooke will need to confront it if she’s to move forward and embrace her new life.
Tempests and Slaughter (Numair Chronicles Series #1)
Tempests and Slaughter, by Tamora Pierce (February 6)
Few names translate to “highly anticipated” like Pierce’s, and today, she kicks off brand-new fantasy adventure series the Numair Chronicles. Powerful mage Arram, a student at the Imperial University of Carthak along with his two best friends, Varice (who may become more than a friend) and Ozorne (who just may find himself on the throne). Get to know them in this opener to the story of how Numair Salmalín came to Tortall.
Shadowsong, by S. Jae-Jones (February 6)
This sequel to the New York Times–bestselling Wintersong is set six months after the first book’s end, as Liesl is back at her family’s inn and working toward a musical career. But she misses her Goblin King, and her brother has become distant. When the barrier between the worlds threatens to crumble, Liesl is forced to return underground in this story of love, sacrifice, and the mysteries of one’s own mind.
The Traitor Prince, by CJ Redwine (February 13)
The third book of the fairytale-inspired Ravenspire series mashes up The Prince and the Pauper and The False Prince in the story of Javan, crown prince of Akram, who returns from a decade at boarding school to see an impostor nab his throne. When the impostor’s assassins force Javan into prison, his only hope for salvation comes via fighting in the prison’s annual tournament and winning an audience with the king. But Javan has made many enemies, and only the imprisoned Sajda, a skilled fighter in her own right, is willing to help. If they can band together and emerge victorious, they’ll save both their lives. But if they fail, they may never see the outside of prison again.
Between the Lines, by Nikki Grimes (February 13)
It has been seventeen years since Grimes’ Coretta Scott King Award–winning Bronx Masquerade, but she hasn’t missed a beat in this companion; indeed, only a summer has passed between the books, but that’s enough time for Mr. Ward to get a whole new class. Darrian joins in the hopes that the emphasis on poetry will improve his wordsmithing enough to help him realize his dream of writing for the New York Times. But he learns a lot more than skills when he gets to know his classmates through the work they share and what they reveal about themselves and their families.
Honor Among Thieves, by Rachel Caine and Ann Aguirre (February 13)
When two New York Times bestselling authors team up for a futuristic sci-fi adventure, the results are nothing short of thrilling. Meet Zara, a petty criminal who’s on her own since refusing to move to Mars with her family. She’d be fine if she could just stay out of trouble, but when that becomes impossible, she finds herself instead recruited onto an elite team of humans called the Honors who’ll be charged with exploring the far corners of the universe as passengers aboard sentient alien spaceships the Leviathan. Zara clicks with both her ship, Nadim, and her partner, Beatriz, making for a better experience than she could’ve imagined…at least until dark secrets rear their heads, raising questions about the Leviathan and what they might be hiding.
Dark Goddess, by Amalie Howard (February 13)
In this sequel to Alpha Goddess, all is well in the Mortal Realm now that the Lord of Death has been removed from the throne and Sera’s best friend, Kyle, sits there instead…until demons suddenly descend upon them, and Sera is forced to desperately search for their source. When she beseeches the gods for assistance, they send Kira, the living incarnation of Kali, goddess of destruction. Kira will fight by any means necessary to preserve the heavens, even if it means the Mortal Realm suffers in the process. With their only hope for help now an entirely different kind of enemy, Kyle and Sera have to work together to protect their world and save everyone they love.
Sightwitch (B&N Exclusive Edition) (Witchlands Series)
Sightwitch, by Susan Dennard (February 13)
This third entry of the Witchlands series is an illustrated novella set back in the beginning, when Ryber was but a Sightwitch sister tucked away at a convent and waiting for a call from a goddess who never comes. Suffused with the pain of being the only Sister who doesn’t possess the Sight, watching the others hurts her soul for years, right up until they’re all summoned into the mountain and don’t come back. Ryber is alone, and she’s the Sisters’ only hope, Sight or no Sight. It’s on her journey to save them that she meets Kullen and their perilous path changes things forever.
Web of Frost, by Lindsay Smith (February 13)
Smith has showed off both Russian expertise and major fantasy chops in her previous books, so what better way to go next than a book that combines them both? This first in the Saints of Russalka series is set in a Russian-inspired world in which Russalka is an empire protected by a royal family who works miracles from the saints. That family includes Princess Katza, who has been receiving visions she knows mean she’ll never take the throne. Then tragedy strikes, making her next in line just as the empire is on the verge of being torn apart by rivals and rebellion. Katza fears it may be the beginning of the end of Russalka, until she meets a prophet whose visions tell an entirely different story. But whose visions are correct, hers or the prophet’s? And what will happen to Russalka if she trusts the wrong ones?
The Prince and the Dressmaker, by Jen Yang (February 13)
Prince Sebastian’s parents may have brides on the brain, but he’s not interested in getting married right now. The joy of his life is something else entirely: wearing beautiful dresses and gallivanting around Paris as the fashion icon Lady Crystallia. It would never be possible without Frances, the dressmaker who both makes his beautiful outfits and keeps his secret. But keeping quiet about the fact that she’s the brilliant mind behind Lady Crystallia’s outfits is getting more and more frustrating for a girl who’s got ambitious dressmaker dreams. How long can she keep his secret if it means she has to stay one, too?
Blood of a Thousand Stars, by Rhoda Belleza (February 20)
The conclusion to the epic sci-fi fantasy duology that began with Empress of a Thousand Skies picks up with Princess Rhiannon in the throes of revolution, forced to make a choice between trusting her enemy or denouncing him no matter how great the cost may be. But she’s not the only one with the villainous Nero in her sights; Alyosha wants nothing more than to kill him in cold blood, but revenge may come at too high a price. Meanwhile, Kara’s still struggling with the secrets of her past and the fact that she’s the throne’s rightful heir…if she even wants to claim it.
The Precious Dreadful, by Steven Parlato (February 20)
Teddi’s had a tough time of life, between past trauma, an alcoholic mother, and a deceased father. To occupy herself with better thoughts, she joins a writing group at her library called SUMMERTEENS, hoping for a solid distraction. Instead, inexplicable and bothersome memories of a childhood friend surface, and suddenly, Teddi has questions for everyone she knows, including herself.
Pitch Dark, by Courtney Alameda (February 20)
Laura is a shipraider, trying to piece together history by searching the galaxy for its missing pieces. Tuck has been stuck in statis on a ship for centuries, one that contains a piece of Earth. When Laura and her family discover the ship and what’s aboard, they know it’s the key to saving the human race. But deadly monsters abound, and in order to save humanity, they’ll have to work together to save themselves first.
These Vengeful Souls, by Tarun Shanker and Kelly Zekas (February 20)
The “Victorian X-Men” trilogy that begin with These Vicious Masks comes to a close in 1883 England with the powerful Evelyn on the run with Sebastian, who’s still in mourning. She’s determined to get revenge on Captain Goode, but will the cost be too great? And if he and his lies have their way, will she have any choice at all? This has been such a fun series, mashing up powers, history, and romance in a delightful way that makes me hope there’s plenty more ahead for this writing duo.
Where I Live, by Brenda Rufener (February 27)
Linden’s got a secret life. By day, she’s a blog editor with great friends and a bright future. By night, she’s living at school, where no one knows she’s homeless. Then she learns another classmate’s secret—that her boyfriend is abusive—and the only way she can help is by revealing her own. Can she come forward even if it means revealing her own painful truth? And what will her life and relationships look like if she does?
Heart of Iron, by Ashley Poston (February 27)

When D09 starts glitching, Ana’s desperate to save him, but it’s a dangerous journey to find the information she needs—and someone else beats her to it.

How far will Kay go to protect herself, and who out there is desperate to ruin her and everyone she cares about? You’ll find out when you absolutely devour this compelling thriller in one sitting.
A Girl Like That, by Tanaz Bhathena (February 27)
“I’m gonna be really mad if we don’t routinely acknowledge this as one of the best books of 2018,” I thought when I finished this, so here’s me living up to my word: this book is powerful and nuanced and rare and good. Zarin is a Zoroastrian Indian expat living in Muslim majority Saudi Arabia, or at least she was living. When the book opens, she and Porus, the dedicated boy who’ll do anything for her, have been killed in a car crash in Jeddah. How they got there, how Zarin became thought of as “a girl like that,” and the lives of not just the two of them but two other teens unfolds in a stark, memorable story of mental health, sexism, religion, expat life, and more.
Tess of the Road, by Rachel Hartman (February 27)
Tess isn’t the ladylike woman she’s expected to be in the medieval kingdom of Goredd, and she can’t seem to stop getting herself in trouble. So much trouble, in fact, that her family sends her to a nunnery. But Tess isn’t meant to be a nun, and she isn’t meant to follow the rules. So she chops off her hair and hits the road, looking for a life in which she fits. Along her journey, her backstory slowly unfolds in this thoughtful feminist fantasy.
All Out, ed. by Saundra Mitchell (February 27)
Marginalized teens have seldom gotten their due in history, but in this anthology, previously sidelined queer teens throughout the ages are front and center. In it, you can find stories by Malinda Lo, Anna-Marie McLemore, Shaun David Hutchinson, Tehlor Kay Mejia, Kody Keplinger, Scott Tracey, Sara Farizan, Nilah Magruder, Kate Scelsa, Mackenzi Lee, Robin Talley, yours truly, and more, spanning the ages with gay, bi, lesbian, transgender, and asexual representation. I realize I’m slightly biased, but is that a dream collection or what?

FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates generally to microfluidic systems and more particularly to microvalves for injecting control fluid samples from one capillary stream into another capillary stream. The microvalves can be employed in high pressure liquid chromatography and other analytical techniques.
Other applications for microfluidic devices include diagnostics involving biomolecules and other analytical techniques such as micro total analysis systems. Such devices, often referred to in the art as �microchips,� also may be fabricated from plastic, with the channels being etched, machined or injection molded into individual substrates. Multiple substrates may be suitably arranged and laminated to construct a microchip of desired function and geometry. In all cases, the channels used to carry out the analysis typically are of capillary scale dimension.
Specifically, it is critical for accurate analysis that precise amounts of samples be available especially when analyzing complex samples. This is difficult to achieve especially in high pressure applications such as microanalytical pressure-drive chromatography.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The invention is based in part on the development of a microvalve for extracting small volume samples into analytical devices, e.g., high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) column. In one aspect, the invention is directed to a microvalve that includes:

In another aspect, the invention is directed to a method of extracting a measured amount of sample from a first fluid stream and introducing the extracted sample into a second fluid stream that includes the steps of:
(a) providing a microvalve that includes:
(i) a first body having a first interior surface and two or more outlet ports at the first interior surface that are in fluid communication with two or more first channels; (ii) a second body having a second interior surface and two or more inlet ports at the second interior surface that are in fluid communication with two or more second channels wherein the outlet port of the first body are coaxial with the corresponding inlet ports of the second body such that there are at least two sets of coaxial port outlets and port inlets; (iii) a plate member, which has a substantially planar first mating surface and a substantially planar second mating surface, that is slidably positioned between the first interior surface and the second interior surface wherein the plate member has at least one aperture that traverses the height of the plate member, and wherein the aperture can be positioned to be coaxial with any of the at least two sets of coaxial port outlets and port inlets; and (iv) means for securing the first surface of the first body against the first mating surface and for securing the second surface of the second body against the second mating surface; (b) connecting a first channel to a first outlet port of the first body; (c) connecting a second channel to a second outlet port of the first body; (d) connecting a third channel to a first inlet port of the second body; (e) connecting a fourth channel to a second inlet port of the second body; (f) maneuvering the aperture to a first position so that fluid flows from the first channel to the third channel through the aperture; (g) maneuvering the aperture away from the first position so that a fluid sample is entrapped within the aperture; and (h) maneuvering the aperture to a second position so that the fluid sample flows into the second or fourth channel.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS This invention is directed to a microvalve for extracting small, e.g., 1�10 nL samples, and injecting the samples into a second fluid stream. The microvalve is particularly suited for introducing the extracted sample into an analysis device such as, for example, a high pressure liquid chromatography column. While the invention will be described with liquid samples, it is understood that the microvalve can be employed with gaseous fluids as well.
As illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, microvalve 10 includes a first body 12 and a second body 14 and a movable slide plate 16 situated between them. Each body is preferably fabricated of metal, ceramic, or polymer material such as, for example, polyether ether ketone, high density polyethylene, or polytetrafluoroethylene. The slide plate can also be fabricated of metal, ceramic, or polymer material.
First body 12 includes two threaded conical-shaped cavities 18 and 20 that are configured to receive threaded sealing ferrules 22 and 24, respectively. The first body 12 can include additional threaded conical-shaped cavities with accompanying ferrules, if desired. The end of each sealing ferrule that is inserted into the receiving cavity is preferably conical-shaped in order to provide a liquid-tight seal when the sealing ferrule is screwed into the cavity. As explained further herein, each sealing ferrule has an internal cavity that runs the length of the sealing ferrule and that accommodates a capillary tube. Capillary tubes can be detachably secured in both bodies by compression of the sealing ferrule. First body 12 further defines two inlet openings, described herein, on its mating surface that faces slide plate 16; the two openings are concentric with the internal cavities of ferrules 22 and 24. Preferred capillaries have circular inner diameters that range from 5 microns to 250 microns. Capillaries are available commercially from numerous sources including, for example, Polymicro Technologies LLC (Phoenix, Ariz.).
Second body 14 similarly includes two threaded conical-shaped cavities that traverse the height of the second body and that are designed to receive threaded sealing ferrules 26 and 28, respectively. The second body can include additional threaded conical-shaped cavities with accompanying ferrules, if desired. The number of cavities in the first body does not have to be the same as that in the second body. Second body 14 further defines outlet openings 32 and 34 on its mating surface that faces slide plate 16 and that are concentric with the internal cavities of ferrules 26 and 28, respectively. As described herein, the two inlet openings of the first body are aligned with the two outlet openings of the second body so as to provide fluid communication between opposed pairs of capillaries held in the ferrules.
As shown in conjunction with the schematic of FIG. 3, movable slide plate 16, which is interposed between bodies 12 and 14, includes a small hole 38 that traverses the height of the slide plate 16 which can be manually rotated using handle 48 projecting the edge as shown in FIG. 1. Handle 48 can also be maneuvered with a motor or other electronic device, and/or with a pneumatic device. Thus, by rotating the slide plate, hole 38 can be aligned with either (i) inlet opening 56 to outlet 36 opening (FIG. 3) or (ii) inlet opening 54 to outlet opening 34. To facilitate alignment or registration of the openings of the bodies to hole 38 of the slide plate, the mating surface of second body 14 has two projections 40, 42, shown in FIG. 1, thereon, e.g., dowel pins, that serves as stops that engage handle 48 of the slide plate 16 to denote when hole 38 is properly aligned. If there are more than two sets of openings on the mating surface of each first and second bodies, then registration of the slide plate hole to the additional outlet and inlet openings can be accomplished with markings on the sides of the slide plate and first and second bodies.
The microvalve components are secured tightly with a bolt or screw 30 which is inserted through hole 37 of second body 14, hole 50 of slide plate 16, and hole 58 in first body 12. The three holes are concentric. In this fashion, the mating surfaces of the first and second bodies and the upper and lower surfaces of slide plate 16 provide fluid-tight seals when compressive pressure is applied and maintained by the screw. To insure a good seal, the mating surfaces and slide plate surfaces must be planar and should be sufficiently polished. It has been demonstrated that by simply bolting the components of the microvalve together without the use of external seals, the microvalve can be subjected to pressures of at least 500 psi without fluid leakage. The term �external seal� refers to a device that joins two systems or elements in such a way as to prevent leakage. The components of the microvalve can be secured also by screws that can be optionally spring loaded and/or other mechanical compressive devices. Alternatively, energy activated devices such as, for example, a solenoid controlled clamp, can be employed to exert a higher compressive force. It is expected that using a power operated device or high pressure clamping device to holding the microvalve components together tightly, will permit the microvalve to operate at pressures of 10,000 psi or higher.
FIG. 4 shows a threaded ferrule 60 that is designed to be screwed into the conically-shaped cavities in first and second bodies 12, 14 of the microvalve as shown in FIG. 1. The ferrule includes an upper handle 64, an externally threaded middle portion 66, and a lower tapered end 68. Ferrule 60 also has internal bore 61 that runs the length of the ferrule from inlet 62 to outlet 69. Preferably, internal bore 61 is narrower at the tapered end (as compared to the upper handle) of the ferrule so that while a capillary tube can readily fit into the narrower portion of the bore, the wall of the bore at the tapered end will collapse against the capillary tube as compressive forces are created as the ferrule is screwed into the thread tapered cavities of the first and second bodies of the microvalve. This effectively creates a liquid tight seal and prevents the capillary tube from extruding during high pressure operations. Preferably each ferrule is constructed as a single, integral piece with no mating sleeve. They can be fabricated by machining a single block of deformable material such as PEEK.
When connecting capillaries, one end of the capillary is preferably inserted into bore 61 of ferrule 60 until the end of the capillary tube reaches outlet 69 of the ferrule or slightly beyond outlet 69. The other end of the capillary is connected to a source of buffer, sample, waste reservoir, or chromatography device as the case may be.
FIGS. 5 and 6 also depict a threaded, one piece ferrule that can also be screwed into a threaded conical-shaped cavity in the first and/or second bodies. The ferrule includes an adapter body 112 having an hexagonal nut 114 on one side and an elongated member 110,118 on the other side. End portion 118 of the elongated member is tapered. The ferrule has internal bore 120,122 that runs the length of the ferrule from inlet 128 to outlet 116. Preferably, as shown in FIG. 6, the proximal portion 122 of the bore is broader to facilitate insertion of a tube into the narrower distal portion 120 of the bore. The wall of the bore at the tapered end will collapse against the tube as compressive forces are created as the ferrule is screwed into the threaded conical-shaped cavity. This effectively creates a liquid tight seal and prevents the capillary tube from extruding during high pressure operations.
Each ferrule is machined from a block of material to fabricate a single, integral piece ferrule. A bore is formed using conventional drills and threads are machined preferably on the exterior of the non-taper portion 110 of the elongated member. When using the ferrule, no flange is needed. In addition, a mating sleeve is not needed since the bore will collapse directly against the tube under compressive force. By �mating sleeve� is meant an extra tube that is inserted into the bore of the ferrule before the capillary tube that will be transferring a fluid of interest is inserted through the bore of the mating sleeve. Mating sleeves having an outer diameter that matches the inner diameter of prior art ferrules are used quite often but are not needed with the inventive ferrule. Machining also permits exact tolerance to be maintained to improve fittings function. Because the inventive ferrules is fabricated by machining, that is, it is not made by molding, a wide range of materials, including plastics, ceramics, and metals, for example, can be used depending on the expected operating conditions, e.g., temperature, pressure, and type of fluids the ferrule will be exposed to. The ferrules are reusable and can be finger-tightened to provide a seal that can withstand a minimum pressure of 5,000 psi.
The ferrule is particularly suited for high pressure operations to connect capillary tubes for microfluidic applications. In this regard, referring to the ferrule shown in FIG. 6, the diameter of the distal portion 120 of the bore is preferably 0.0145 in. (0.368 mm) to 0.015 in. (0.38 mm) and the diameter of the proximal portion 122 of the bore is typically 0.018 in. (0.46 mm) to 0.020 in. (0.51 mm). In practice, one or more ferrule(s) each with a capillary tube is screwed into the appropriate threaded concical-shaped cavity. As the ferrule is screwed on, the compressive pressure causes the internal bore of the ferrule to collapse against the capillary tube thereby gripping the capillary and forming a fluid tight seal.
The microvalve is particularly suited for extracting small and carefully controlled sample volumes from a fluid stream and injecting the extracted sample volumes into analysis means such as a chromatographic column of a sample analysis system as illustrated in a FIG. 7. The system includes a microvalve 70, that is secured by a mechanical or motorized clamp 72, along with a source of sample for analysis 78, a source of buffer 80, and a waste reservoir 76, capillary electrophoresis column 74 and detector 84. Pumps 82 and 86 are employed to deliver buffer and sample, respectively, to microvalve 70. The inlet and outlet ports of the microvalve device 70 are connected to the other components of the sample analysis by capillaries which are commercially available. Motor 71 is employed to move handle 48 (FIG. 1). Alternatively, slide plate 16 (FIG. 1) can be maneuvered by other means, such as, with gear driven teeth on the other diameter of the slide plate.
Conventional mechanical pumps can be employed although a preferred method employs a high pressure hydraulic system that has no moving parts for converting electric potential to hydraulic force and for manipulating fluids which are described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,013,164 to Paul, et al., U.S. Pat. No. 6,019,882 to Paul, et al., U.S. Pat. No. 6,224,728 to Oborny, et al., and U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,277,257 and 6,290,909 both to Paul, et al., which are all incorporated herein by reference.
For microfluidic operations involving sample volumes in the range of 1�10 nL, the capillaries have inner diameters in the range of 0.1 microns to 500 microns, and preferably less than 100 microns. The capillary is typically made of glass, metal, silica, or a polymer.
In operation, as shown in FIG. 3 slide plate 16 of the microvalve is positioned at a first position so that the sample from the source flows through one set of opposed capillaries through the slide plate hole 38 interposed therebetween and into waste reservoir. At an appropriate time, slide plate 16 and the portion of sample entrained in hole 38, is moved to a second position such that hole 38 is aligned with a second set of capillaries. Flowing a buffer solution through the second set of capillaries carries the sample entrained in slide plate hole 38 downstream for analysis. The volume of the slide plate hole, i.e., the diameter of the hole and the thickness of the slide plate, determine the quantity of sample analyzed. Changing the diameter of the slide plate hole and/or the thickness of the slide plate itself will change the volume of sample being analyzed.

For Fans of Robert Ellis, Vivid Contrasts in a Stylish CD - The New York Times
U.S.|For Fans of Robert Ellis, Vivid Contrasts in a Stylish CD
By ANDY LANGER JULY 9, 2011
Robert Ellis's latest album, “Photographs,” is influenced by both country and folk music. Credit Paul Moore
Robert Ellis is running his thumbs over the case of his new CD, “Photographs.” Ornately framed vintage pictures of his parents adorn the cover, and the 22-year-old from Houston is trying to demonstrate that each frame is finely embossed.
Mr. Ellis is particularly proud of the ultraviolet ink that makes what would be the glass parts of the frames look more like actual glass. The effect is understated, but it adds up to decidedly intricate packaging at a time when most CD covers are only seen as thumbnail JPEGs in online music stores.
“Little things are important to me, whether it’s the packaging or in the presentation of the songs themselves,” said Mr. Ellis, sitting in a room at Hotel San José in Austin, paid for by his new label, New West Records, a well-regarded independent with a roster that includes John Hiatt, Kris Kristofferson and Steve Earle. “Why shouldn’t the CD look like something people might want to actually have and hold onto? I’m pretty obsessive about having this all mean something.”
As it turns out, the sense of subtlety and nostalgia inherent in the packaging offers more than a hint of the music inside. “Photographs” features largely autobiographical storytelling across a song cycle broken into two equal, but decidedly diverse, halves: an “A” side of delicately plucked folk songs and a “B” side centered upon lushly orchestrated, yet eminently danceable, classic-sounding country music.
Although both cycles reveal songs remarkably complex for Mr. Ellis’s age, more striking is that neither sounds much like what’s going on in the indie folk scene (Bon Iver, Iron and Wine) or anything currently on country radio, from either Texas or Nashville. As distinct as those sides may be, Mr. Ellis still credits both halves of his persona to his childhood in Lake Jackson, Tex., and frequent family vacations spent camping at bluegrass festivals across the state.
“For my family, there were two types of music: country and bluegrass,” said Mr. Ellis, who dropped out of high school his junior year, took a year of music classes at a community college and left Lake Jackson for Houston four years ago. “For some time, I tried to rebel against that by playing indie rock, trying to be weird for weird’s sake. But to me, both halves of this record are rooted in country — loss, family, the road. I’m not sure it’s conscious, but I suppose there’s a country side to everything I do.”
There are occasional country flourishes on Mr. Ellis’s independently released 2009 debut, “The Great Rearranger,” but it largely focused on traditional singer-songwriter fare. (“I was 20 years old,” he said. “There’re aspects of those songs that sound too precious now. I guess it’s possible I’ll hate everything I do two years after I do it.”)
While his first album set the stage for the folksy side “A” of “Photographs,” the blueprint for side “B” came not only from returning to his earliest influences, but also from two years of weekly gigs in Houston that Mr. Ellis and his band dubbed Whiskey Wednesdays. The band would add as many as 10 new songs a week to their repertory of classic (and often obscure) country songs from the likes of Buck Owens, Merle Haggard, Conway Twitty and Ray Price.
“It was trial by fire,” Mr. Ellis said of the popular series, which officially ended in April. “As a band, it got us used to playing in every state of mind from stone cold sober to fall down drunk and all points between. And as a songwriter, learning all those tunes gave me a chance to really deconstruct them. I became obsessed analyzing their every aspect. What I came to admire was the simplicity. The classic guys really packed a lot of emotion and meaning into songs that are really just verse, chorus and maybe another chorus.”
At the Whiskey Wednesday shows, Mr. Ellis drew both traditional country enthusiasts and a younger audience raised on indie rock but not afraid to two-step to a Johnny Paycheck song. Given the distinct differences between the sides of “Photographs,” Mr. Ellis is the first to admit that it might not be as easy to find an audience that’s game for both halves of the equation.
“I suppose if you don’t have an affinity for country, some of the ‘B’ side stuff might seem derivative and kind of boring,” he said. “And if you like the country stuff, you might not have the patience for the extended modern classical arrangement of track three. But to me, they’re all just songs. Take ‘A Good Year for the Roses.’ If George Jones does it, it’s country. If Elvis Costello does it, it’s pop. To me, it’s just a great song.”
Mr. Ellis, currently on a 13-date tour opening for the Old 97’s, knows that quickly finding an audience for what can initially sound like a challenging, hard-to-categorize album will not be easy. He sees “Photographs” less as a make-or-break proposition and more as the first in a series of baby steps toward settling into a consistent sound of his own.
“I want to find an audience that’s open and, most of all, patient,” he said. “I’m hoping to find people that are patient enough to follow me wherever I might go. I don’t want to be just one thing. I can’t think of anything more boring.”

Hopefully the news will stay good as there has been quite a few poisoning incidents since the reintroduction program began. :( Fingers crossed these new eagles won't meet the same demise as some of their elders. For now though, best to concentrate on the good news! :)
