A nurse who craved the excitement of medical emergency has been found guilty of murdering two patients by deliberately injecting them with lethal doses of drugs.
Benjamin Geen, 25, waited for vulnerable patients to be admitted to the accident and emergency department of the Horton General Hospital in Banbury, Oxfordshire, and then found a way becoming involved in their treatment.
The result was always the same - the patient's condition rapidly deteriorated and Geen was on hand to help revive them. But in two cases, his intervention proved lethal. The judge hearing the case said Geen appeared to have been thrilled by bringing patients to the point of death and then helping to revive them.
Yesterday a jury at Oxford Crown Court found Geen, of Banbury, guilty of two charges of murder and 15 counts of grievous bodily harm against patients. He murdered David Onley, 75, from Deddington, who died on 21 January 2004, and Anthony Bateman, 66, from Banbury, who died on 6 January 2004. Both were very ill when they were admitted to hospital. Once Geen had intervened, they did not stand a chance.
During the two-month trial, the court heard how Geen "came alive" and looked "elated" as his patients went into respiratory arrest. Geen even boasted about the medical emergencies during his shifts and told one doctor: "There is always a resuscitation when I'm on duty."
Doctors were bewildered by the unexplained respiratory failures - normally very rare events - which happened between December 2003 and February 2004. Eventually they decided to take action. Over one weekend senior staff at the hospital sat down with the case notes of hundreds of patients whose outcomes they could not explain.
The file was whittled down to 18 cases. Benjamin Geen was the common factor in every one. Staff at the hospital called the police and Geen was arrested as he arrived for work the next day - with a full syringe of vecuronium, a muscle-relaxant used in anaesthetics, in his pocket. Since then, instances of respiratory failure have virtually disappeared at the hospital.
Michael Austin Smith QC, for the prosecution, told the jury Geen must have known the fatal consequences of what he was doing but found that toying with patients' lives was a "price he was willing to pay in order to satisfy his perverse needs". He said: "Most were lucky - two were not. And on February 9 when Geen went back to work with that loaded syringe, was there somebody else who was extremely lucky that the authorities had nailed their man?"
Mr Justice Crane asked to see psychological reports on Geen before passing sentence. "These are such unusual offences and the motive is such a strange one and not in any sense entirely normal, I think I should not sentence until I have got a full picture."
Detective Superintendent Andy Taylor, who led the police investigation, said: "For those who have lost loved ones this has been even more difficult ... When someone is admitted to hospital there is an expectation that they will receive the treatment, care and nursing that will help them get through their illness."
Speaking after the verdict, one of Geen's first victims, Robert Robinson, a former policeman who now helps run a business in Sri Lanka, said his life had been devastated by Geen's attack. Mr Robinson, 51, was admitted to hospital after he drank a bottle of gin and took painkillers. But he stopped breathing when he was given the anaesthetic which he did not need. "I'm just trying to get my life back together. It's going to take time... I find the simplest thing very difficult to do. When I was in Sri Lanka I used to parasail and jetski. I could never do that now."Reuse content

Canterbury defend NPC title in style
Slippery playmaker Richie Mo'unga has inspired Canterbury to yet another NPC title, starring in their 43-27 win over Tasman in the Premiership final.
First five-eighth Mo'unga scored two tries and set up three others as the defending champions snared a remarkable eighth title in nine seasons.
An all-Crusaders region final in Christchurch was dominated by the efficiency and ruthlessness of the hosts, whose 13th NPC crown leaves them three behind Auckland on the overall ladder.
It was the second final defeat in three seasons for Tasman, who lost the 2014 decider to Taranaki.
It took 45 seconds for them to cede the advantage, when Canterbury's Australian lock David McDuling charged down a clearance from Tasman No.10 Marty Banks to score.
English winger Nathan Earle went across soon afterwards in a move which twice featured Mo'unga before Tasman enjoyed their best period, soon after Earle was shown a yellow card for a professional foul.
NPC leading pointscorer Banks landed two penalties and converted a try to flanker Shannon Frizell to put them 13-12 ahead.
Crusaders pivot Mo'unga then scored the try of the game, scything through from 40m out and leaving a series of defenders in his wake on a weaving run.
Centre Jordie Barrett slotted a penalty to put Canterbury 22-13 up at halftime, with Tasman lock Alex Ainley have been sent to the sin bin for a dangerous tackle soon before the break.
The teams exchanged alternate second-half converted tries but Tasman never got within nine points of the lead.
Canterbury's additional tryscorers were second five-eighth Rob Thompson and reserve flanker Billy Harman while Mo'unga bagged his second.
Halfback Billy Guyton and reserve hooker Jesse MacDonald crossed for Tasman.
The result ends an enviable tenure for Canterbury coach Scott Robertson, who is leaving to coach the Crusaders next year. Robertson secured five titles as Canterbury assistant coach and three in the head role.
It was the last Canterbury outing for fullback Johnny McNicholl and his 100th first class game before he takes up a contract with Welsh club Scarlets.
The prolific Banks is also leaving, for Italian club rugby.

GREEN is the color of Nature, Fertility, Life. Green symbolizes self respect and well being.It is also the color of Balance. It also means Growth and Harmony. It is also the color of Mother Earth, our unique Planet Green in the Universe.
How does the color Green affect us?
It affects us physically and mentally.
It is soothing .
It helps alleviate, depression, nervousness and anxiety.
Offers a sense of Renewal, Self control and Harmony.
The importance of conserving and protecting our Green planet is already aware to Mankind. Two days in a year are earmarked to focus the Green Affair. June 5 is celebrated every year as World Environment Day and April 22, is celebrated every year as Earth Day.
TEN Innovative ways in which we can go Green:
1.CONSERVE Water, Electricity and Fuel
2. Use CFLs.Compact Flurosecnt Light Bulbs are cost effective way to conserve energy and save money.
CFLs last up to 10 times longer than a traditional incandescent bulb, and use 75% less energy.
3. Harness Alternative sources of energy like
SOLAR Energy and WIND Energy. Wind energy is one of the cleanest forms of alternate Energy available. An upcoming trend, you can vouch that it will become commmon in the coming years.
4. Go ORGANIC
Reduce your Carbon footprint . Buy Organic foods and other consumer products from Brands like 'Organica' and 'Fab India'.
5. The term "CARBON FOOTPRINT" refers to the amount of carbon (C02) we emit individually in any one-year period. C02 is produced from many sources and is the primary gas responsible for Global warming and the resulting alarming changes in our climate.
Old habits die hard. and if we have to revolutionize the way we think and GO GREEN we have to mould our children. Friday is the day for Color Green. So let there be a Universal anthem for 'GO GREEN' and let the school children across the world sing it in their Morning Assembly.
Patronize companies like SUZLON that are making efforts to make
our environment more Eco friendly. Invest in their Bonds and Shares. India has the Fifth largest installed Wind Power Capacity in the world.
Make a GREEN International Fair an Annual 5 day event.
Showcase the latest innovations in the world of technology for a Greener Planet.
Hold Seminars and debates. Screen documentaries from across the world, by Green enthusiasts.

Cultural participation by school children on the theme GREEN.
Invite celebrities and local musicians and have a CONCERT for 5 days.
The Chipko movement or Chipko Andolan (literally "to stick" in Hindi) is a social-ecologicalmovement that practised the Gandhian methods of satyagraha and non-violent resistance, through the act of hugging trees to protect them from falling. The modern Chipko movement started in the early 1970s in the Garhwal Himalayas of Uttarakhand, with growing awareness towards rapid deforestation. The landmark event in this struggle took place on March 26, 1974, when a group of peasant women in Reni village, Hemwalghati, in Chamoli district, Uttarakhand, India, acted to prevent the cutting of trees and reclaim their traditional forest rights that were threatened by the contractor system of the state Forest Department. Their actions inspired hundreds of such actions at the grassroots level throughout the region. By the 1980s the movement had spread throughout India and led to formulation of people-sensitive forest policies, which put a stop to the open felling of trees in regions as far reaching as Vindhyas and theWestern Ghats.
Volunteering in planting tees with social bodies like the Rotary club. Lion's Club and other organizations.
Besides the Ten ways i have mentioned, there are numerous activities in daily life which can go a long way in creating the GREEN psyche.
The thrust for GOING GREEN should be to inculcate 'Earth Friendly Habits'. The more people treat Mother Earth well, the safer its inhabitants will be. EARTH is the ONLY known planet till date with LIFE. let us not tip the natural balance and wake up now, and preserve Mother Earth.

This invention relates to a method for improving the doping of a semiconductor material.
In more exact terms, the invention is concerned with a method of doping which makes it possible to obtain a final concentration profile for impurities of a given type of conductivity which it was impossible or very difficult to obtain by known methods.
A number of different techniques have already been widely employed for doping a single crystal with semiconducting material. Among these can be mentioned in particular the high-temperature diffusion technique, ion implantation and "accelerated diffusion."
Diffusion is the oldest of these methods and is familiar to anyone versed in the art. It is known that this method makes it possible to obtain a concentration profile for diffused atoms such that the concentration decreases in inverse ratio to the distance from that face of the single crystal at which the diffusion has been performed. In this method, the crystal must also be subjected to a heat treatment at high temperature. In order to produce an advantageous result, it is necessary to attain temperatures at least equal to 1000� C, thus modifying the crystal structure. In particular, if a number of successive diffusions are necessary in order to obtain the different zones of the desired component, the successive heating operations reduce the definition of each doping and have a tendency to result in fusion of the structures obtained during previous stages.
The methods of ion implantation are also well known. The ionized impurity atom (boron, phosphorous and the like) is accelerated with a known energy in order to bombard the crystal and become embedded in this latter at a predictable depth. Use is accordingly made of focused ion beams accelerated to a kinetic energy of the order of 10 KeV to 2 MeV. This implantation causes the displacement of a certain number of atoms of the crystal and the formation of microscopic damaged regions. For this reason, the implantation proper is followed by an annealing operation at a temperature below that which is employed in the gaseous diffusion process. These methods also result in a concentration profile for implanted impurities which decreases uniformly and progressively as the distance increases from that face of the crystal in which the implantation has been performed (if the surface layer is excluded).
In order to obtain a buried layer, it is necessary to utilize very high energies and the layer thus formed is of small depth.
The third method is that of accelerated diffusion. This technique is described in French patent Application No. 72 43292 of Nov. 29, 1972 in respect of "Improved method of diffusion by protons and semiconductor devices obtained by said method."
This method consists essentially in displacing a p-n junction within a semiconducting pellet by bombarding this latter with an accelerated ion beam, the pellet being maintained at a high temperature in order to induce lattice vacancies within the region of the second type of conductivity.
This method makes it possible to "flatten" or "spread" the concentration profile for impurities of one of the two doping substances but a decreasing concentration as a function of the depth of penetration is always obtained unless a buried layer has previously been formed either by implantation or successive epitaxial growths.
It is in fact desirable in some applications to produce a rise in the concentration profile for an impurity of a given type at a given depth within the semiconductor crystal.
The precise object of the present invention is to provide an improved method of doping which makes it possible to obtain this result.
The method essentially consists in a first step in doping said material in the known manner with said impurities which have a given concentration profile and, in a second step, in maintaining said material at a high temperature, in bombarding said material at least once with a beam of given intensity of particles accelerated with a given energy which is sufficient to penetrate into the crystal during a predetermined time interval so as to obtain migration of the impurities resulting in an increase in the impurity concentration irrespective of the sign of the initial concentration gradient (positive, negative or zero) within a zone adjacent to the zone of stopping of the particles.
In accordance with another characteristic feature, the energy of the beam of non-doping ions is such that the zone of stopping of said particles is adjacent to the region in which it is desired to obtain a rise in the impurity concentration.
In accordance with a second characteristic feature, the fluence of the beam of non-doping particles is such that the desired value of rise in concentration is obtained.
When protons are employed, the acceleration energy is preferably comprised between 200 and 700 KeV. The temperature to which the semiconductor material is heated is of the order of 700� to 1000� C. The fluence of the beam of bombardment particles is advantageously within the range of 1015 p/cm2 to 1019 p/cm2.
This invention also relates to the application of the method described in the foregoing to the fabrication of semiconductor components, a number of different examples of which will be given in the following description.
A clearer understanding of the invention will in any case be gained from the following description of a number of modes of application of the method according to the invention which are given by way of example without any limitation being implied, reference being made to the accompanying figures, in which :
FIG. 1 shows the curves which illustrate the irradiation effect according to the invention on a homogeneous semiconductor material ;
FIGS. 2, 3 and 4 show the curves which illustrate the irradiation effect according to the invention on a semiconductor material having non-uniform doping ;
FIGS. 5 and 6 show one example of application of the method according to the invention to the fabrication of a bipolar transistor on solid silicon ;
FIGS. 7a, 7'a, 7b, 7'b show one example of application of the method according to the invention to the fabrication of diodes on an insulating substrate ;
FIGS. 8a and 8b show one example of fabrication of depletion-type MOS transistors ;
FIGS. 9a, 9b and 9c show one example of fabrication of a field-effect transistor with buried electrode.
As has been stated earlier, the improved method of doping in accordance with the invention consists in a first step of doping the semiconductor crystal (for example a silicon crystal) by known means with a view to forming a p-n junction.
By way of example, the starting material can be a substrate of p-type silicon in which is formed an n-type region. This n-type region can be obtained by any known means such as ion implantation or diffusion. The portions of the substrate in which it is desired to produce a modification of the n-type impurity concentration profile are subjected to a beam of non-doping charged particles such as protons or molecular ions H+, these regions being limited by a mask. During this operation, the semiconductor substrate is maintained at a relatively high temperature of the order of 850� C.
In this method, a number of different physical values come into consideration : the concentration profile and the dose of initial doping impurities ; the time of irradiation of the substrate and the flux of the beam employed for the irradiation, the energy of the beam and the nature of the particles employed for the irradiation.
It should at once be made clear that the particle flux employed for the irradiation is measured in p/cm2 /s and that, if a given flux is applied to the substrate for a given period of time, there is a fluence expressed in p/cm2 which gives the dose applied per cm2. This is the beam fluence and reference will be made to this value rather than the flux in the following description.
The results obtained by subjecting previously doped silicon substrates to irradiation in accordance with the present invention will now be described.
This example is concerned with a homogeneous sample.
This sample which had been doped by boron during the growth had a nominal resistivity of 0.0012 ohm-cm, therefore a concentration of 1020 B/cm3.
Irradiation was carried out with a proton beam having an energy equal to 250 keV with a current density in the vicinity of 6 μA/cm2 (3.7 � 1013 p/cm2 /s) for a period of 3 hours and 8 minutes ; the fluence was therefore 4 � 1017 p/cm2.
The temperature of the sample was maintained at 860� C ; taking into account the heating-up and interruptions of the beam, the duration of the heat treatment at this temperature is equivalent to 13000 s under a vacuum which was higher than 10- 6 torr.
The irradiated zone was a circle 6.1 mm in diameter as determined by an opening in a tantalum mask applied against the sample.
After irradiation, the boron concentration profile shown in FIG. 1 reveals considerable differences with respect to the initial uniform profile. The depths in microns have been plotted as abscissae and the impurity concentrations after irradiation have been plotted as ordinates.
It is especially noticeable that a level stage or plateau I at 7 � 1019 is followed by a boron depletion II starting from 2.4 μm, which is in turn followed by an enrichment peak III at 1.2 � 1020 B/cm2 at a depth of 2.95 μm. The concentration then reverts to a uniform value in the vicinity of 1020 B/cm3. The projected path of protons of 250 keV energy is 2.5 μm.
This example is concerned with a non-homogeneous prediffused sample.
The n-type silicon substrate (resistivity of 5 ohm-cm) was subjected to a predeposition of boron in carrier gas for a period of 180 minutes at 1150� C. This treatment results in a nominal surface concentration Cs = 2 � 1020 cm- 3 and a distribution represented approximately by the relation : ##EQU1##
This profile is represented by curve I of FIG. 2. The initial junction is located at 3.7 μm.
Curve II represents the new concentration profile after an irradiation in accordance with the invention.
A proton beam of 250 keV energy was employed for a period of 2 hours. The fluence was of the order of 4 � 1017 p/cm2. The temperature was of the order of 880� C. The normal penetration of protons (R1) was 2.4 μm. It is observed that a peak P1 was obtained in respect of a depth of 2.8 μm and a "valley" V1 in respect of a depth corresponding substantially to R1.
Curve III illustrates the result obtained under the same experimental conditions but with an energy of 400 keV, in which case the value of R2 was 4.3 μm. It is observed that there is present on this curve a peak P2 for a depth of 4.5 μm and a "valley" V2 corresponding substantially to R2. It is therefore apparent that the acceleration energy makes it possible to adjust the depth of the peak, that is to say the position of the rise in the concentration gradient, to a value slightly higher than that of the corresponding depth of stopping of the protons.
The samples were n-type silicon substrates having a resistivity within the range of 0.7 to 1.2 ohm-cm and prediffused with boron. These samples were irradiated at 880� C by protons of 250 keV energy with different fluences. The results obtained by these different irradiations have been recorded in FIG. 3.
Curve I of FIG. 3 represents the initial profile prior to irradiation. Curve II gives the profile obtained after irradiation with a fluence of 1017 p/cm2 ; curve III corresponds to a fluence of 4 � 1017 p/cm2, and curve IV has a fluence of 6 � 1017 p/cm2.
It is observed that the minimums of curves II, III and IV correspond substantially to the same depth (2.4 μm), which is normal since the protons have the same energy in all three cases. On the contrary, it is observed that the width of the peak increases with the fluence and that the peak/valley ratio also increases with the fluence. The total quantity of boron atoms which are displaced towards the disordered region therefore increases with the fluence.
There is employed in this example an n-type silicon substrate prediffused with p-type impurities with a depth of junction of 1.7 μm. The irradiation takes place at 850� C with a fluence of 4 � 1017 p/cm2 and an energy of 250 keV (FIG. 4). As at the outset, the depth of prediffusion (curve I) is only 1.7 μm, the concentration gradient is very high and the initial boron concentration is very low (considerably lower than 1016 B/cm3) at the proton stopping depth (2.4 μm). However, it is seen from curve II of FIG. 4 which gives the profile after irradiation that a very substantial enrichment (in relative value) and a peak in the vicinity of 3 μm are obtained between 2.2 μm and 4 μm.
All these examples clearly show that, by virtue of the method of doping according to the invention, it is possible to obtain inversion of the impurity concentration gradient in a zone adjacent to the zone of stopping of the particles employed in the irradiation process, this inversion being exhibited by the formation of a concentration peak if there is a non-homogeneous concentration of impurities.
In the event that a constant concentration is adopted at the outset, there is obtained a concentration peak preceded by a valley.
In other words, spreading of the initial concentration profile is obtained by means of the method of accelerated diffusion. On the contrary, a localized "enrichment" is obtained by means of the novel method of doping. It is therefore a fact that these two methods are entirely different from each other. The particles serve only to displace the impurities which are already present within the crystal.
In the examples given in the foregoing, only one irradiation operation was employed. It is readily apparent that in some cases it can be an advantage to carry out a number of irradiations with different energies and fluences in order to obtain for example a region having a broader peak.
The foregoing description related to the use of protons as "bombardment" particles in order to obtain displacement of impurities ; many other charged or uncharged particles can be employed such as molecules, atoms, ions. By way of example use could very readily be made of rare gases, atoms of silicon, carbon or germanium .
It is also possible to employ doping particles for the bombardment. The method described above is in that case combined with a conventional ion implantation effect.
Moveover, the initial doping is preferably but not exclusively carried out by means of hydrogenous impurities, that is to say impurities having an energy level of small depth. This applies in particular to the elements of columns III and V of the periodic table such as arsenic, phosphorus, boron and so forth.
A number of applications of the method of doping according to the invention will now be described.
FIGS. 5 and 6 illustrate one example of application to the fabrication of a bipolar transistor on solid silicon.
FIG. 5 is a sectional view of a conventional bipolar transistor. There is shown the n-type region constituting the emitter 2 with its electrical contact 4, the p-type region forming the base 6 with its electrical contact 8 and the n-type region which forms the collector 10 with its n+ type contact region 12, the unit as a whole being formed in a silicon layer formed by epitaxial growth. In order to reduce the resistance of access to the intrinsic collector, recourse can be had to heavy doping of the collector but this increases the stray collector-base capacitance and is liable to limit the performances of the circuit thus formed. In order to overcome this disadvantage, a heavily doped n-type buried region 14 is formed by the method of doping in accordance with the invention. The region 14 to be irradiated is defined by means of a mask of suitable shape and the energy of the proton beam and its fluence are adjusted so as to form the region 14.
FIG. 6 shows the concentration profiles along the section plane a-a'. The emitter and base profiles 16 and 18 are not modified. In the collector region, there was initially a constant concentration represented by dashed lines (20). After irradiation, the profile 22 is obtained. Provision is thus made for heavy doping in the region 14 and much lighter doping in the regions of contact with the base and the substrate 24. The stray base-collector and collector-substrate capacitance is therefore reduced in a single technological operation by maintaining the resistance of access to the collector at a constant value in a first approximation.
Similar problems arise in the case of silicon layers deposited on an insulating substrate whenever contacts are to be established within the volume. These problems can be solved by resorting to the method of doping in accordance with the invention.
By reason of the presence of surface states, a high recombination rate is observed in a structure of this type, especially at the insulating silicon interface. Various devices can be fabricated on these layers and it is desirable to be able to form a screen for the minority carriers with respect to said surface (minority carrier devices). This can be carried out by creating a high doping gradient and associating with this latter an electric field which repels the minority carriers.
FIGS. 7a, 7'a, 7b and 7'b illustrate the case of a p+ nn+ diode on an insulating substrate.
FIG. 7a is a sectional view showing a diode of this type.
There can be seen in this figure the insulating substrate 26, the p+, n and n+ regions designated respectively by the references 28, 30 and 32, and the insulating layer 34 (formed of silica, for example). The arrows show the diode current ID and the recombination currents IR1 and IR2 at the interfaces I1 and I2.
FIG. 7b shows the doping profile along the section plane a--a which is uniform.
The same diode is shown in FIG. 7'a but is obtained in this case by the method according to the invention. This diode differs from that of FIG. 7a in the zone 36 of the n-type region 30 which is very heavily doped ; this is shown in FIG. 7'b. A heavily doped zone having a thickness e is located in the vicinity of the insulating silicon interface. This doping can advantageously be obtained by means of the method according to the invention. The rate of recombination at the interface I2 is higher than at the interface I1 and the doping gradient at the interface I2 produces an electric field ε within the silicon which repels the minority carriers and thus prevents substantial recombination at low injection levels.
When conventional technologies are adopted, this result cannot be obtained by retaining a very small thickness e with respect to the thickness of the silicon layer. The same doping operation at the interface I1 is carried out between the silicon and the silica layer.
The same technique can be applied to the fabrication of a lateral transistor of the silicon-on-insulator type. In this case, the regions of type p+ nn+ 28, 30 and 32 of FIG. 7'a are respectively replaced by regions of types n+ pn+ or p+ np+, depending on whether it is desired to obtain a p-type transistor or an n-type transistor.
In FIGS. 8a and 8b, there is shown a further example of application of the method according to the invention to the case of depletion MOS transistors.
FIG. 8a is a sectional view of a transistor of this type and shows p+ type regions corresponding to the drain 38 and to the source 40 and the conducting channel 42.
The full-line curve (curve 1) of FIG. 8b shows the impurity concentration profile along the section plane a-a' obtained by means of an ion implantation technique. NB1 doping is present in the vicinity of the surface of the semiconductor and NB2 doping (NB2 >>NB1) is present at the center of the channel 42.
By employing the method of doping in accordance with the invention, there is obtained in the case of channel 42 the concentration profile shown in dashed lines (curve 2). This makes it possible to have much steeper profiles. By providing a better distribution of impurities within the channel, the maximum value N52 and the surface mobility of the MOS transistor is thus improved. In order to obtain this profile, a number of bombardments are employed with different energies.
FIGS. 9a, 9b and 9c relate to the fabrication of a field-effect transistor with buried electrode. A first step consists in forming the structure shown in cross-section in FIG. 9a. The p-type pad 44 is formed by diffusion within the n-type substrate 46. FIG. 9b shows the curve 1 which gives the difference in concentrations of acceptors and of donors (NA -ND) as a function of the depth.
In order to fabricate the structure shown in FIG. 9c, that is to say in order to form the p-type buried electrode 48, the surface of the substrate corresponding to the pad 44 is irradiated by the method according to the invention. There is thus obtained the concentration profile represented by curve 2 of FIG. 9c.
In more general terms, the method of doping according to the invention makes it possible to form buried electrodes both readily and with a high degree of accuracy. The method accordingly finds a particularly advantageous application in the construction of photodiodes which are sensitive to a number of wavelengths of light.
It is in fact only necessary by means of this method to form buried electrodes at different depths in one and the same substrate (for example an n-type substrate).

Indo-US relationship has been "losing some energy" and needs jolts of new ideas and ambitions, a former US diplomat has said and asked the Obama Administration to take some steps to strengthen it as India will be America's "democratic partner" for the future.
Former Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs Nicholas Burns said India is likely to be one of the top strategic partners of the US, which looks to the Indian leadership to deal with problems in Nepal, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
Burns, the key interlocutor of the previous Bush Administration with India on the Indo-US civil nuclear deal, said the "relationship has been losing some energy and needs jolts of new ideas and new ambitions."
"India may not be a formal treaty ally, but is going to be a democratic partner for us for the future. The United States needs to take some steps to strengthen this partnership," he said, ahead of President Barack Obama's visit to India next month.
Burns was speaking on the occasion of release of a report "Natural Allies – A Blueprint for the Future of US-India Relations" co-authored by him, former Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage and Richard Fontaine, Senior Fellow at the Center for a New American Security.
Burns said: "The US looks to Indian leadership as a partner in dealing with problems in Nepal and the instability there, the problems in Bangladesh with radical Islam and certainly in trying to deal with the problem if civil war in Sri Lanka over the last decade."
He said: "India is likely to be, if not the primary strategic partner of the United States globally going forward in the next 40 or 50 years, certainly one of the two or three most important."
"We are guarded by the very strong believe that despite the enormous progress in the US India relationship in the decade past, we should be much more ambitious about this relationship – Americans and Indians," Recommending "a bold leap forward' in the Indo-US relationship, the report also urges Obama to endorse New Delhi's bid for Permanent Membership of the UN Security Council, remove ISRO from entities list and stop asking India join NPT as a non-nuclear state.
"United States and India are in the midst of a remarkable transformation of a relationship that for decades never reached its full potential," he said, adding that the private sector led the way in beginning this strategic relationship.
Burns said under President Obama, US and India have become foreign policy partners beyond this bilateral relationship. "India may not be a formal treaty ally, but is going to be a democratic partner for us for the future. The United States needs to take some steps to strengthen this partnership," he said.
Observing that the global balance of power is changing, Burns said some of the important institutions that are important for global stability like the UN Security Council look more like the world of the Second World War than the world of 2010.
"The United Stated ought to support in my judgment personally, India's permanent membership in the Security Council. We need stronger military ties than we have. We need actions by the United States to liberalise export control regime," he said.
Burns said this is the key moment for the United States. "The global balance of power is shifting. The future is going to look very different as who has power in the world than it did in the last 30 or 40 years, we need democratic partners, friends and allies to keep the peace, particularly in the most vital parts of the world for the United States, which is the Middle East, the South Asia and East Asia," he said.
"It make sense that the United States commits itself to a long term strategic partnership, a short of an alliance with India and Japan and other countries in the future so that China's rise occurs in a peaceful, stable Asia where the democratic powers remain very strong," Burns said.

~ OMG... this is the last chapter for season 3! I am doing season 4 under a different story name, so I hope you check my profile for it (:
BloodMoonWanes: I wanted Luna to confess before the events of season 4... and also because of what I had planned for this chapter.
~ This is a bit shorter, but it sets up the beginning of season 4. I tried to get some flashbacks in this chapter... so hopefully it'll be an epic season 3 ending.
General POV
It was just after her 16th birthday party, weeks before she would trigger her werewolf curse. Luna sat on the couch with the presents she had gotten. Most of them were gift cards to her favorite stores, but there was some clothing, framed pictures and even a pair of concert tickets.
"Did you like what you got?" Her mom asked as she sat on a chair near her. Luna just nodded her head.
"I counted, not including the gift cards I have about $100 but with the gift cards it's almost $200." Luna said, still surprised that she got to much money. "Everything was just amazing."
"There's still one more thing." Her dad said after walking around the couch and sitting next to her. "A little gift from me for your sweet sixteen." He handed her a small box. As Luna held it in her hands, she couldn't help but smile even though she didn't know what was in it. She opened it up and noticed that inside it was a necklace with a crescent moon pendant. Luna knew that it was referring to her werewolf heritage, because she had confronted her parents about it when she was 15.
"It's pretty." Luna said as she held it in her hands. "Thank you."
~End Of Flashback~
Luna's POV
I opened my eyes but realized that he wasn't next to me. My hand subconsciously touched his pillow. I couldn't help but picture him laying next to me, sleeping. 'I love him' I thought with a small smile. Klaus did cause a lot of pain in my life, but he also gave me many things to be happy about. 'Does he love me?' I asked myself before sliding out of his bed. I walked to Klaus's bathroom and saw how extravagant it was. His tub was big enough that the two of us would be able to be in it comfortable. 'He had to get that on purpose' I thought before looking at his shower. It was also big enough for the two of us. I felt myself smile before starting the shower for myself. After getting in and making sure my hair was wet, I looked at Klaus's shampoo. 'I could smell like him' I thought before slowly moving my hands towards them. They were only in my hands for a few seconds before I decided to use them.
After I was done with the shower, I put on one of Klaus's shirts so I wouldn't be naked when I walked back to my room. When I got to my room, I saw Rebecca standing in it.
"Hey Becca." I said and when she turned around I could tell that something happened. "What's wrong?"
"Come downstairs after you get dressed." She said. "We need to talk." Rebecca walked past me and walked downstairs. 'What happened?' I asked myself before I found myself hurrying to find clothes to put on.
General POV
Luna and her family walked into her house. She had just gotten into a car crash and accidently killed someone. No one looked more worried than Luna's father, who knew what was going to happen.
"Amber, why don't you let me talk to our daughter alone." Luna's father said to her mother, which made her nod her head before going upstairs.
"Dad... am I...?" Luna asked, barely able to get the words out of her mouth. Her father didn't know what to say because he knew words wouldn't be able to fix it. Luna knew by her father's silence that she had truly activated the werewolf curse that he unintentionally passed down to her. Her father just pulled her in for a hug as she started crying.
"We'll get through this." Her father said in a whisper as he rubbed the back of her head.
"This wasn't supposed to happen." She said, knowing that she was going to turn on the next full moon.
"I'll help you." Her father whispered as Luna closed her eyes in an attempt to stop the tears. "The whole pack will." The two of them just stood there, wondering and worrying about the next full moon.
~End of Flashback~
Luna's POV
After I got dressed, I hurried down the stairs. There was a part of me that was worried and I felt like I had a reason to be. I took a deep breath before entering a room to see both Elijah and Rebecca.
"What's going on?" I asked, trying not to sound worried.
"It seems the others have dessicated Klaus." Elijah said, which made me a little confused.
"Dessicated?" I asked because I only knew about vampire and werewolf stuff.
"It means they stopped his heart." Elijah said and I could already feel tears gather in my eyes.
"But he's not dead because if he was, I'd be dead to." I said out loud, mainly to myself. "What are we going to do?" I asked because I was ready to help with almost anything they needed help with.
"We need to keep his body away from Alaric so you and Nik don't die." Rebecca said to me and I nodded my head, already agreeing to help.
"Then what are we doing here?" I asked, which slightly shocked the both of them. They knew how much I hated Klaus and the fact I was ready to help save him showed change in me since each of them met me.
"We don't know where he is." She said to me and I felt my arm go out and punch a hole in the wall near me. I knew it was my werewolf anger starting to show itself, but that's because I was feeling protective of Klaus.
"We have to find him." I said as calmly as I could. "The others should know where he is." I took my hand out of the hole I punched before looking at Elijah and Rebecca.
"That's what I was going to do." Elijah said. I took a deep breath and gave Elijah a small smile before he left me alone with Rebecca.
"You want to help?" Rebecca asked with some surprise in her voice. I just gave her a nod.
"I can't lose anyone else I love." I said. "Especially not now and especially not Nik."
"You really love him." She said and I just gave her a small smile before feeling tears in my eyes. I closed them and took a deep breath, trying to control my emotions.
"How long do you think it will be before we find out where he is?" I asked as I took deep breaths.
"Hopefully not long." Rebecca said before I opened my eyes. "You should get something to eat first." I just gave Rebecca a small nod before slowly going towards where I knew the blood bags were.
The whole time I was pacing back and forth, waiting for news. I had to help Klaus, not only because he rescued me from Alaric but because he would do the same for me and because I loved him. After everything that has happened, I didn't know how I would handle losing anyone else. Rebecca eventually got the location from Damon and I was partially relieved. I knew where he was and after we were out of danger from Alaric I would have Klaus back.
Rebecca and I looked at each other before the elevator door opened in front of us. We were in the storage warehouse that they had Klaus. I knew that we were going to get Klaus, I was going to make sure of it. The two of us started to walk out the elevator and I couldn't help but wonder where Damon was.
"Damon!" Rebecca semi-shouted his name. "Damon, where are you?" We walked past some storage units and didn't hear anything from Damon.
"Come on you ass... we don't have all day." I said because I was growing impatient. I wanted Klaus and Damon knew what storage locker he was in. Rebecca and I looked at each other as we continued walking, only for me to be grabbed. I was going to scream or bite, but there was a hand over my mouth.
"Luna... Shhhh." I knew it was Damon, but that didn't relax me. It was his fault that Klaus was dessicated, which didn't make me like him. I knew we were in a bad situation, so I tried to put my anger aside after he look his hand from me. I slowly turned towards him so we were face to face.
"Where is Klaus?" I mouthed with Rebecca standing next to me. Damon just tilted his head in a direction that the three of us started to go towards.
Damon, Rebecca and I pushed a casket towards the elevator. Inside was Klaus's body. I knew it would be safer to get him back after we got him away from Alaric. I tried to keep taking deep breaths but I was worried that we might not get out okay. The three of us got Klaus to an open area in the warehouse before I was thrown. After my head hit the wall, I looked and saw Alaric opening the casket.
"No." I said, trying to plead with him as I quickly got up. I sped towards him only to be flung back against the wall.
"No!" Rebecca and Damon both shouted at Alaric, even though he didn't stop. Out the corner of my eye, I noticed that Damon had held onto Rebecca so she wouldn't rush at Alaric.
"Please don't." I said to Alaric with tears already gathering in my eyes. Alaric held the stake above Klaus's body before plunging into his heart.
"NO!" Rebecca and I both yelled as Klaus started to up on flames before Alaric took the stake out. I felt numb. 'Klaus is dead.' I thought with tears falling from my eyes. 'He's dead.' I knew I started to cry as Alaric turned towards me with the stake in his hand. My mind told me to run but my body wouldn't move. It felt numb, like nothing mattered.
"Luna, run." I could barely hear Damon say. I slowly looked towards him to see Rebecca already gone. "Go." He bent down next to me and forced me up. Once my body was up, it started to act on it's own. I found myself running away, with tears in my eyes.
I ran until I couldn't keep running. My body fell to the ground with my back against a tree. I began to cry, almost hysterically no matter how hard I tried to stop. 'He's dead' I thought, the image of Klaus's body in flames was seared in my mind. "He's dead." I said out loud, even though no one could hear me. I brought my knees to my chest and began to cry into them. 'I've lost everyone' I felt my body almost begin to rock. 'There's one way' I thought before feeling something wrap around me. I didn't know who it was, but I clutched onto them with my life. 'There's one way' I thought, knowing what I had to do so I couldn't feel the pain of losing him. "I can't handle it." I said, not stopping the tears from falling. "I don't know what to do without him." My eyes closed as tight as they could in an attempt to stop the tears. They kept on flowing out of my eyes, no matter how hard I tried. "I can't do this." I thought before thinking of my dad. He made me promise that I would never do it, but I saw no other choice. 'I'm sorry dad' I thought as the tears continued. I could tell that there was a little switch in me. It felt so easy just to turn it the other way, to switch it off. I promised my dad that I would never do it, but I saw no other way to survive. I'd be crying all the time, not able to do anything if I stayed the way I was. It seemed the switch just moved on it's own and I noticed I wasn't crying. I looked up to see Kol sitting next to me. He slowly brought one of his hands to my face and wiped away a tear that must have been left over.
"What now?" Kol asked obviously knowing that I had turned it off.
"Italy." I said as we both stood from the ground.
"I know a way." Kol said as he held out his hand with a small smirk on his face. I looked at his hand for a moment before taking it. Kol and I looked at each other before we speed away.

1 review for Tina-Final Sale
I was really pleased when I took these boots out of the box. They are really pretty boots, nice material with a top quality feel. I believe they are a very warm, comfy boot. I reluctantly returned them due to my heel. I have a bone spur that needs plenty of cushion. They have quite a bit of fleece inside and under the foot but I was worried that it might crush down and not be adequate. The boot does run a little narrow but for me that was also a plus. The supplier paid for the return shipping to Canada and supplied the necessary documents for customs. I hauled everything into a UPS store and they put everything together for me. I may regret returning them when the snow lands.

Smart Content Marketing Ready WordPress Themes
At Webdirexion, we develop your smart Content Marketing ready websites on a WordPress theme framework called Thematic. We believe that WordPress is one of the smartest Content Marketing moves you can make, and there are a number of features and advantages to this "parent/child" theme approach. Plus, we've added more custom functionality — taking it to the "MAX" touch. This is an overview of the features and benefits of our "Thematic-MAX" themes.
Advantage of Parent/Child Theme:
WordPress allows you to develop sites as a "child" (references main theme programming) of a parent theme, so Thematic takes this idea and runs with it building its "parent" theme into a robust framework designed to allow certain strengths for designers and developers of custom child themes. One big win? The parent theme is maintained and updated regularly to take advantage (more…)

The ability to switch a thalamocortical (TC) relay neurone into burst firing mode is a key step in generating specific sleep states (Steriade, 2005). Interactions between the various intrinsic conductances responsible for generating TC burst firing critically depend upon membrane hyperpolarization. One of the most widely accepted synaptic mechanisms for bringing about this membrane hyperpolarization involves increased potassium ion permeability due to GABAB receptor activation (Williams et al. 1995). It is now apparent that, in addition to the conventional forms of transient synaptic responses that underlie phasic conductances (IPSCs), a tonic GABAAR-mediated conductance (GGABA) is also present in some thalamic nuclei (Porcello et al. 2003; Belelli et al. 2005; Cope et al. 2005; Jia et al. 2005; Chandra et al. 2006; Bright et al. 2007). Tonic inhibition of this type refers to the continuous activation of extrasynaptic δ subunit-containing GABAA receptors (δ-GABAARs) by low concentrations of ambient GABA (Brickley et al. 1996, 2001). It is now widely accepted that δ-GABAARs are ideally suited to the generation of this form of tonic inhibition in a variety of brain regions but the physiological function of GGABA is only beginning to be appreciated (Farrant & Nusser, 2005). It has recently been demonstrated (Cope et al. 2005) that enhancing tonic inhibition due to extrasynaptic δ-GABAA receptor activation can also favour burst firing of relay neurones due to the resulting membrane hyperpolarization (Chandra et al. 2006). The importance of understanding the modulation of GGABA in the thalamus is further indicated by the fact that δ-GABAARs are emerging drug targets in the treatment of epilepsy (Maguire et al. 2005), stress (Shen et al. 2007) and sleep disorders (Winsky-Sommerer et al. 2007).
The functional significance of IPSCs in the thalamus is clear but the significance of GGABA for controlling TC relay neurone excitability is not fully appreciated and the impact of raising GABA release on GGABA has not been established in any brain region. What we do know is that GABA release clearly contributes to GGABA in both cerebellar granule neurones (Brickley et al. 1996; Wall & Usowicz, 1997; Hamann et al. 2002) and dentate granule neurones of the hippocampus (Glykys & Mody, 2007), and that GGABA can be pharmacologically enhanced by drugs that act on δ-GABAARs such as neurosteroids (Stell et al. 2003), anaesthetics (Belelli et al. 2005) and the sleep-promoting drug gaboxadol (Chandra et al. 2006). A vesicular independent form of GGABA has also been described in cerebellar granule neurones that can be enhanced by blocking GABA uptake (Wall & Usowicz, 1997; Rossi et al. 2003). In contrast, GGABA in TC relay neurones appears to be entirely vesicular dependent (Bright et al. 2007). However, it has yet to be determined whether increases in vesicular GABA release can alter GGABA in adult TC neurones although mechanisms for increasing vesicular GABA release have been reported. For example, addition of group 1 metabotropic glutamate receptor agonists can stimulate GABA release on to TC neurones (Govindaiah & Cox, 2006) and increased GABA release at thalamic synapses has also been documented following application of nitric oxide (NO) donors (Yang & Cox, 2007). These studies highlight possible candidate mechanisms for increasing GABA release in the thalamus, but none of these studies has described a physiologically relevant stimulus for triggering this process. In the current study we describe a novel activity-dependent mechanism for enhancing GABA release in the adult thalamus and quantify the impact of this plasticity on both phasic (activation of synaptic receptors; sIPSCs) and tonic inhibition (activation of extrasynaptic receptors; GGABA).

Apparently, Neil Patrick Harris Is at the W
So, yeah, one of the Jonas brothers was at the W Hotel in Victory Park yesterday guest-judging American Idol's Dallas final auditions. Can't recall which one -- Joe, maybe? Nick? Gummo? Tito? Doesn't matter. But this, er, news (?) has me significantly more interested: Reports E!, Neil Patrick Harris "is sitting at the judges table today for the Dallas auditions, a Fox rep confirmed to us." I should go by, say hi. See if he remembers that magical afternoon we spent together in Austin a couple of years ago.

I have been passionate about music for as long as I can remember. Over the years this has driven me to apply myself to various music-related projects. I never seem to get around to creating music myself—but I certainly facilitate its production and consumption through DJing, operating several record labels, and managing my free music distribution portal.
Basilisk is my stage name in the psychedelic trance scene since 2000. I pride myself on being a generalist, playing a wide range of different styles within the psytrance genre. My goal has always been to celebrate the diversity of psytrance and trance-inducing electronic dance music rather than focus on one small piece of the puzzle. I also have a healthy respect for the quality of timelessness in music and tend to take on the role of musical archaeologist by exploring the obscure depths of trance music history in my mixes and sets.
Find Basilisk on Mixcloud and Facebook.
Synaptic FX
Synaptic FX is a side project exploring a different side of electronic music. It is under this alias that I focus on more cutting edge trends in electronic music culture from deep house to pop techno. My goal with this project is to express my love for futurism in music. In this way both my projects are mirror images of one another.
Find Synaptic FX on Mixcloud and Facebook.
Record labels
Ektoplazm is the name of my music distribution portal as well as my first netlabel. Founded in 2008, the Ektoplazm netlabel is dedicated to promoting unconventional talent with a professional approach to releasing free music in MP3, FLAC, and WAV format. The label has no defining sound; instead, it is dedicated to showcasing the range and diversity of the global psychedelic trance movement, always with an ear for quality. Altogether the label's releases have been downloaded more than a million times.
Find Ektoplazm on SoundCloud, Twitter and Facebook.
Omnitropic is Ektoplazm's downtempo and ambient sublabel. Founded in 2009, this label is dedicated to releasing a wide range of high-quality downtempo, ambient, psychedelic dub, and experimental electronic music compatible with psychedelic trance culture.
Download the Omnitropic discography.
Drumlore was originally founded in 2009 as an experiment in using free music to promote real-world progressive techno events. Every release in the original Drumlore series was designed to promote a party featuring the artist on that same release. These releases were put out about a month in advance of each event, all of which were held in Toronto and generally well-attended. I also took a different approach with the album artwork in the original series; each piece was produced during a "one hour design challenge".
After my original co-founder left the project I operated Drumlore similarly to my other labels, focusing on a contemporary fusion of minimal, progressive, and psychedelic dance music under 130 BPM.
Download the Drumlore discography.
Techgnosis Records
Founded in 2015 alongside Ben Rama, Techngnosis Records is an outgrowth of my work with Drumlore focusing more on the dreamy side of psychedelic techno and progressive dance music. I am mainly responsible for album artwork for the label.
Find Techgnosis Records on Bandcamp and Facebook.

first time in a year of "it just works" of pirut not working for me.
OK, this is just weird.... pirut was giving me error messages, and now it just
works fine!!! Go figure! This may be useful for the developers though... In
my case, I was out of town on business using the wired Internet connection
provided by the hotel. Perhaps there was something in their servers that was
preventing pirut from getting to the repository. I dunno. The next night at
the hotel everything was working as expected.

An updated pirut packages is available in the Fedora 7 Updates Testing

and then see if you still can reproduce this problem?
