Reviewer Guidelines
Manuscripts submitted for publication in Bentham OPEN journals are subjected to single blind peer-review. Single blind reviewing protects the identity of the reviewers by not disclosing their names to the authors. The anonymity of reviewers ensures objective and unbiased assessment of the manuscript by reviewers.
Reviewers are advised to consider the following important aspects of a manuscript when conducting the review.
1. Reporting of Original Results:
The results reported in the manuscript must be original and authentic work of the authors. They should be devoid of any plagiarism and the material should not have been published earlier. Studies which report some reproduced results, for example a new clinical trial, may also be considered for publication.
2. Experiments and Analyses:
Experiments and other analyses should meet the recognized technical standards and must be described systematically. The research presented in a manuscript should facilitate in reaching accurate conclusions from the statistics. Methods and experiments as well as reagents should be documented in detail.
3. Interpretation of Results:
Authors should present and interpret the results and conclusions in an appropriate and comprehensive manner, clearly explaining the results and outcomes of their study. Incomplete interpretation of results may result in rejection of the manuscript.
4. Language of Composition:
The manuscript should be written in English in a clear, direct and active style, free from grammatical errors and other linguistic inconsistencies. All pages should be numbered sequentially, facilitating the reviewing and editing of the manuscript. Authors are advised to contact our contracted service provider Eureka Science for any assistance, if needed, on the language editing of their manuscripts.
5. Experiments involving Humans and Animals:
The research must meet the highest applicable international standards of the ethics of experimentation and research integrity. A brief description on ethical guidelines is given in the 'Instructions for Authors' of every journal published by Bentham OPEN.
6. Reporting guidelines (e.g. CONSORT, MIAME, STROBE, EQUATOR) and Community Standards for Data:
The manuscript should adhere to suitable reporting guidelines (e.g. CONSORT, MIAME, STROBE, EQUATOR) and community standards for data availability. Bentham OPEN seeks to disseminate research and therefore stipulates that the public deposition of data is as per the followed standards (for example gene sequences, microarray expression data, and structural studies). Other similar standards that may be applicable should also be followed.
7. Manuscript Evaluation:
Evaluation of manuscripts is carried out by the journal Editors and the invited external peer reviewers according to the following procedures.
The editorial process and peer-review workflow for each journal are taken care of by a team of Senior Editors and Editorial Advisory Board Members (EABMs) who have expertise in their specific fields. The services of Senior Editors and Editorial Advisory Board Members are sought through invitations to organize and conduct the peer-review of a submitted manuscript keeping the scope of the manuscript and the expertise of Editors in view. Manuscripts are forwarded for evaluation to Editors and EABMs as well as external reviewers to check if the research work presented in the manuscript: (a) falls within the scope of the journal, and (b) meets the editorial criteria of Bentham OPEN in terms of originality and quality. Editors/EABMs may recommend the acceptance or rejection of a manuscript by conducting the peer-review themselves based on their own knowledge and experience, or they may take assistance and advice from other experts in the field.
After review of the manuscript by at least two independent experts, in addition to the views of the Editor, the decision is relayed to the authors. The three types of decisions are categorized below:
- Accept without changes
- Revisions Required
- Reject
The Editor-in-Chief (EiC) and Senior Editors of a journal have the right to select reviewers for a particular manuscript considering the knowledge and experience of the reviewers.
Before sending the manuscripts to a reviewer, Bentham OPEN seeks consent from potential reviewers about their availability and willingness for review. The correspondence between the editorial office of the journal and reviewers is kept confidential.
A review report provides the Editor-in-Chief/Senior Editor with an expert opinion on the quality of the manuscript under consideration. It also supplies authors with explicit feedback on how to improve their papers to make them acceptable for publication in the journal. Although confidential comments to the editors are not relayed to authors, any remarks that may help improve the quality of the manuscript are forwarded to the authors for their consideration. A good review report answers the following important areas:
- Is the work novel and of high standards?
- What are the main findings of the paper? Is relevant work of other authors in the field appropriately acknowledged and references given to the previous literature?
- Do the experimental data support the declarations? If not, what other evidence may prove fruitful?
- What kind of readers would benefit from the manuscript and why?
- In what further directions would it be feasible to take the current research?
Reviewers are expected to provide advice on the following points in their review reports:
- Is the manuscript written comprehensively enough to be understandable? If not, how could it be improved?
- Have adequate proofs been provided for the declarations?
- Have the authors addressed the previous findings fairly?
- Does the paper offer enough details of its methodology to reproduce the experiments?
- Bentham OPEN encourages authors to publish detailed protocols as supporting information online. Do any particular methods used in the manuscript warrant such a protocol?
The peer-review of a manuscript is a confidential process. It is the responsibility of the reviewers to ensure confidentiality in this regard. They should consult the EiC/Senior Editor and obtain permission before consulting another colleague for help in the peer-review of the submitted manuscript.
Reviewers should not disclose any information whatsoever to anyone before publication of the manuscript.
The reviewers should provide their reports in a timely fashion, since a prompt review leads to the timely publication of a manuscript. This is beneficial not only for the authors but for the scientific community as well.
The Editorial staff relays the comments of the reviewers on behalf of the Editor-in-Chief/Handling Editor. The review reports are edited by the Editor-in-Chief/Handling Editor if the comments contain confidential information or these are written in a language not suitable for scholarly communication. Reviewers should include such comments in the confidential section of the review form, which is intended to be read by the editors only.
Bentham OPEN respects requests not to have the manuscripts peer-reviewed by those experts who may have competing interests with the author(s) of a submitted manuscript. It is not possible for Editors to be aware of all competing interests; we therefore expect that reviewers would inform the Editor-in-Chief/Handling Editor if they notice any potential competing interest during the course of review of a manuscript. Moreover, the reviewers are expected to inform the Editors or editorial office of the journal if they have any conflict of interest in carrying out a review of a manuscript submitted by any author/contributor.
Peer reviewers who have submitted timely, constructive peer reviews are eligible for a 50% discount on articles submitted within 12 months of their peer review.


text: News & Events / Brooklyn Law Notes print Back to Features Equal Access and the Right to Marry: Page 1 2 3 4 Next Current Issue : Spring 2010 How should courts think about the right to marry? This is a question of principle, but it is also a key question of litigation strategy for advocates challenging laws that prohibit gay and lesbian couples from marrying. Getting the answer right is particularly important right now. Although same-sex marriage has been the subject of a national debate for several years, most challenges so far have been brought in state court. Recently, however, David Boies and Theodore Olson, former adversaries in Bush v. Gore, teamed up to file a federal challenge to a California law that limits marriage to the union of one man and one woman. Many experts anticipate that the case will ultimately be decided by the Supreme Court of the United States. A decision from the Supreme Court invalidating the California law could require states across the country to open up marriage to gay and lesbian couples—and a decision upholding the amendment would not only hamper federal challenges for the foreseeable future, but also greatly decrease the likelihood of success for state constitutional claims. In an article that will appear this spring in the University of Pennsylvania Law Review,1 we argue that earlier litigation and commentary have overlooked the most promising argument in support of same-sex couples' marriage rights: an approach that we call equal access. Under this approach, once a state decides to recognize and support marriage, it presumptively must make that status available evenhandedly. Although this might sound like an obvious argument, two other legal theories have dominated litigation surrounding the right to marry for same-sex couples so far. While these other arguments have merit, they also suffer from serious limitations. Equal access is more likely to succeed. Firmly grounded in existing law, it offers a sensible, moderate way for judges to strike down laws that exclude gay and lesbian couples from civil marriage. Equally important, it opens up a more satisfying way of conceptualizing the right to civil marriage generally. Civil Marriage and Due Process The first argument that has dominated recent litigation is that everyone has a liberty right protected by the Due Process Clause to get married in a state-recognized ceremony. The Supreme Court has often referred to a right to marriage. For example, in 1967, in Loving v. Virginia,2 the Court ruled that state laws prohibiting interracial couples from marrying were unconstitutional, in part because they violated due process. "Marriage," the Court explained, is "fundamental to our very existence and survival." Similar language has appeared in other cases. Based on these precedents, gay and lesbian couples argue that they too should enjoy the freedom to marry. But this due process theory has been largely unsuccessful in litigation. Although courts have typically agreed that the Due Process Clause protects a right to marry generally, they have held that there is no right to "same-sex marriage" in particular. Judges have observed that due process law often looks to American history and traditions in order to determine whether a right is protected, and they have concluded that marriage between people of the same sex is not deeply rooted in the nation's customs. Thus, with very few exceptions, even state courts that have overturned different-sex marriage requirements have rested their decisions on grounds other than a fundamental right to marry under state or federal due process provisions. We disagree with the line that courts have drawn between "marriage" and "'same-sex' marriage." If there is a due process right to marriage, it should be understood as a fundamental right to choose one's spouse—a freedom that same-sex couples share. But there is a deeper flaw in this argument: there may be no due process right to civil marriage at all, even for different-sex couples. The cases typically cited to support a due process-protected right to marry link marriage to a due process-protected interest in procreation. While this link may have made some sense in an earlier era, when many state laws made marriage a prerequisite to legal childbearing, today having children outside marriage is accepted, both socially and legally. In fact, civil marriage—marriage that meets state law requirements and thus is recognized by the state—is different from other constitutionally-protected family-related rights, such as the right to make choices regarding child rearing, sexual intimacy, contraceptive use, or termination of a pregnancy. These other rights can be exercised without any state involvement, and due process protects against burdensome government regulations that could unduly limit individual choices. Civil marriage, by contrast, is a government program that provides certain benefits, both material and expressive, and imposes certain obligations. In this respect, civil marriage is also different from private or religious marriage. Civil marriage requires government sanction— a marriage license—while private or religious marriage does not. To see this more clearly, imagine a state that chose to abolish civil marriage altogether, leaving marriage to religious groups or other private organizations. Such a state could decide to offer civil unions or domestic partnerships, or it could designate some other form of family relationship, such as parent-child relationships, as the basis for government benefits or recognition. While these reforms are probably not politically viable, we agree with the majority of scholars that they would not violate any constitutional rights. Yet, a state's decision to get out of the marriage business would impose the maximum possible burden on access to civil marriage. If the Due Process Clause really did guarantee a right to civil marriage, a law ending that institution would almost certainly be unconstitutional. This suggests a weakness in the due process argument. In sum, a right to enter a private or religious marriage may indeed be protected by due process, but a right to civil marriage is likely not. "Equal access argues that, once conferred, the right to marry in a legally recognized ceremony is fundamental. In other words, if a government decides to recognize and support civil marriage, it cannot exclude same-sex couples without providing an adequate justification."

Strawberry Scones
As part of a generation raised on a steady diet of fairy tales and Disney Princesses, the idea of a Royal Wedding fascinates me. How many little girls around the world have dreamed about finding Prince Charming and becoming a princess? How many not so little girls still try to emulate the ideal for their own special days? For those of us 30 years and under, this is our first real experience with a true Royal Wedding. Not just one we've seen in an animated movie. I think for a lot of people, Kate represents the little part of us that dreamed about what it would be like. Except she actually gets to live it.
The wedding itself didn't disappoint. What can I say about it that hasn't or won't be said a billion times over? The dress—classic and stately—was beautiful. But come on. Kate could wear a garbage bag and still look elegant. (Although I won't lie. Elaborate and a bit more over the top would have been okay in my book too.) The setting was GORGEOUS. Westminster Abbey just solidifies my love of Gothic architecture. The ceremony was lovely and the music was fantastic. (How much do you think it would cost to hire the choir of cherub faced little boys to follow me around singing all day?) And all the hats? Well, the British sure do accessorize. All of it was fantastic and so worth getting up well before dawn for.
America's Test Kitchen Family Baking Book-- pressing the dough into a cake pan before turning it out onto a floured counter, making it much easier to shape and cut the scones! I think I'll spend the day munching these and talking with a fake British accent. Now if only I liked tea and knew what the heck clotted cream was, I could feel like royalty myself. Cheers!
Adapted from Martha Stewart
Makes 8
2 cups all purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar, plus more for sprinkling
1 tablespoon baking powder
¾ teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
8 ounces fresh strawberries (about 8-10 medium/large strawberries, finely diced
1 teaspoon lemon zest (from 1 lemon)
1/3 cup heavy cream, plus more for brushing tops
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1. Preheat oven to 400F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners; set aside.
2. In a large bowl, sift together flour, 3 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, and salt. Using a pastry cutter or two knives, cut butter into flour mixture until the largest pieces are the size of peas. Stir in strawberries and zest.
3. Using a fork, whisk together cream and eggs in a liquid measuring cup. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in cream mixture. Stir lightly with a fork just until dough comes together. Turn out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead a few times to mix well.
4. Lightly flour a 8-inch round baking pan. Press the dough evenly, but gently into the baking pan. Invert pan onto a lightly floured work surface and allow dough to release. (You'll probably have to slam it down on the counter a few times to get it to come out.) Using a floured knife, cut the circle into 8 wedges. Transfer to prepared baking sheets.
5. Brush tops with heavy cream and sprinkle with sugar. Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until golden brown, 20 to 22 minutes. Allow to cool on pan for several minutes before transferring to wire rack to cool completely.

A Christian apologetics ministry dedicated to demonstrating the historical reliability of the Bible through archaeological and biblical research.
The Apostle Paul quoted Isaiah 52:7 in the tenth chapter of his epistle to the Romans. He wrote: "How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: 'How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things!'" (10:14-15, NKJV). In Isaiah's day, as well as Paul's day, the most common form of transportation was walking and Isaiah said the feet that carried the gospel of peace were beautiful!

10 questions facing Angels in 2014
The bad thing about the Angels heading into the new year is that a lot of players need to bounce back.
The good thing is that a lot of those players have track records that suggest they should.
The bad thing about the Angels heading into the new year is that a lot of players need to bounce back.
The good thing is that a lot of those players have track records that suggest they should.
Three of them (Albert Pujols, Josh Hamilton and Jered Weaver) are superstars, one is a year removed from being an elite third baseman (David Freese), one was among the most durable and effective relievers from 2009-12 (Sean Burnett) and one is only 22 years old (Tyler Skaggs).
So many things went wrong in 2013 that it almost makes you believe a lot should go right in 2014. That's how it works, right? Don't the baseball gods intervene in matters like these? Or isn't there some sort of physics law that applies to this?
The Angels can only hope.
For now, all they have are a lot of questions.
Here are the 10 biggest:
10. How will the Angels pitch?
The Angels ranked 11th in the American League with a 4.23 ERA this past season. Their rotation didn't get deep enough into games, their bullpen wasn't deep enough to handle the workload, and their Minor League system was too depleted to provide quality depth. But in Skaggs and Hector Santiago, the Angels have some cost-controlled starting pitching. And in standout setup man Joe Smith, they have a formidable weapon for the back end of the 'pen.
9. What can be expected out of 41-year-old Raul Ibanez?
Skeptics will point to Ibanez's .203/.295/.345 slash line in the second half as a clear sign that he wore down late and will continue to fall off in 2014. But keep in mind that Ibanez spent 832 1/3 innings in the outfield with Seattle last season, but is pretty much only a designated hitter with the Angels. And note that he's a career .349/.407/.522 hitter at Angel Stadium. Bottom line: The Angels paid a pretty fair price ($2.75 million base salary, plus an additional $2.25 million in incentives) for someone who posted an OPS-plus of 123 last season.
8. What can be expected of Freese?
Freese fell off considerably from 2012 to '13. His slash line went from .293/.372/.467 to .262/.340/.381; his Ultimate Zone Rating at third base from 2.1 to minus-16.5. His season began with a back injury that had him batting .163 by the end of April and finished with an October in which he hit just .179/.258/.268. Freese, 30, is probably an upgrade over Alberto Callaspo, nonetheless. But is he still good enough to make it worth losing Bourjos and taking on an additional $4 million or so?
7. Can Calhoun handle an everyday role?
The trade that sent Bourjos and outfield prospect Randal Grichuk to the Cardinals for Freese and reliever Fernando Salas was made for three reasons: 1. The Angels needed a third baseman; 2. Parting ways with Bourjos allows Mike Trout (center) and Hamilton (left) to move to the outfield spots where they're most comfortable; 3. They believe Calhoun is an everyday player. Calhoun always mashed in the Minors, and in 58 Major League games last year, the 26-year-old, 5-foot-10 sparkplug batted .282/.347/.462. Now we'll see how he fares when the sample size stretches out.
6. Will Weaver return to his ace-like form?
Weaver is still only 31 years old, his right arm is healthy, and he was very effective in 2013, going 11-8 with a 3.27 ERA despite missing more than seven weeks with a broken left elbow. But this is Weaver's average fastball velocity from 2010-13: 90.1 mph, 89.2, 88, 86.8. Those around the team will tell you that Weaver has never really relied on velocity, that he's a master at putting pitches together, and that his delivery plays up his stuff considerably. All of that is true. But that's still a scary trend for the ace of a staff who's owed $54 million over the next three years.
5. Does Trout get his mega-extension?
Any deal signed after Opening Day does not count toward a team's Collective Balance Tax payroll -- the average annual value of all 40-man-roster contracts, plus benefits -- until the following season. That's important to note for an Angels team that needs to stay below the $189 million luxury-tax threshold and finally has Vernon Wells coming off the books in 2014. Will it pave the way for a Trout extension, one year before he's expected to shatter the record for a first-year arbitration-eligible player? Soon enough, locking up the game's best player will be the Angels' top priority.
4. Who will be added to the starting rotation?
The Angels now have five starters in Weaver, Skaggs, Santiago, C.J. Wilson and Garrett Richards, but three of them -- Skaggs, Santiago and Richards -- have options left, and general manager Jerry Dipoto said they'll be "very aggressive with how we fill our pitching needs." Free agent Matt Garza and Masahiro Tanaka are still at the top of their list, with the likes of Bronson Arroyo, Jason Hammel and Paul Maholm being potential fallback options.
3. How many prime Pujols years remain?
If ever the Angels were going to get an MVP-caliber season out of Pujols, this is the one. In 2012, he was adjusting to new surroundings and the expectations of a $240 million contract, going homerless in his first 27 games before rebounding profoundly. In 2013, he dealt with plantar fasciitis and batted .258/.330/.437 before his season ended after 99 games. At full health, the Angels expect Pujols to be among the game's best hitters once again in 2014. They'll deal with the seven other years -- and the $189 million he'll be paid throughout -- one at a time.
2. Which Hamilton will show up?
Will it be the one who batted .217/.271/.397 in his first 106 games or the one who batted .329/.392/.518 in his final 45? Although his best production came while the team was out of the playoff race, the Angels believe finishing the season strong will have a carryover effect that could get Hamilton back to his MVP self of 2012. Adding 15-20 pounds of muscle, which he purposely shed heading into last Spring Training, should also help that cause.
1. Can Mike Scioscia and Jerry Dipoto figure it out?
Angels owner Arte Moreno saved himself from a tough, franchise-altering decision when he opted -- somewhat surprisingly -- to let both Dipoto and Scioscia stay despite a 78-84 season. Instead, the Angels reconfigured their coaching staff, adding Don Baylor as hitting coach, Gary DiSarcina as third-base coach and creating two new positions, with Dave Hansen as assistant hitting coach and Rick Eckstein as Major League player information coach. But a fifth consecutive playoff absence in 2014 could bring Scioscia (signed through 2018) and Dipoto (club options for 2015 and '16) back to the proverbial chopping block.

Hippocratic oath
The Hippocratic oath is a long-standing tradition in medicine. Named after the Greek physician Hippocrates, the written oath was intended to act as a guideline for those entering the medical profession. Over the centuries, the exact wording has been modified and adapted, but the essence of the oath has remained the same. Doctors should respect those who have passed down medical knowledge and in turn pass their knowledge to the next generation. They should also respect the patients they are treating and ensure that they treat them to the best of their ability.
Although the oath carries his name and is believed to date from the fourth century BCE, medical historians have cast doubt on whether Hippocrates was the actual author. They believe some of the practices referred to in the original oath contradict elements of Hippocratic teaching. Most likely, the original oath had a number of authors.
Although most medical schools no longer require new doctors to swear allegiance to a single oath, the term retains its broad ethical meaning in the medical community. Should a doctor stray from the expectations of the profession, for example by deliberately harming a patient, he or she may well be accused, by the media at least, of 'breaking the Hippocratic oath'.

Since its announcement, the iPhone 5 has been going over like gangbusters, but samsung's counterpunch might not be far behind. According to a report by The Korea Times, Samsung's new S IV flagship will be coming out March 2013, and could have an even bigger screen.
According to an anonymous executive, the S IV is due to be announced at Mobile World Congress in Spain, where its predecessor was announced the year before. The S IV might get a boost in size, gaining .2 inches on the S III to wind up at 5 inches on the dot; that's creeping up to Galaxy Note (5.3 inches) territory. This seems like it'd be a logical next iteration on the formula that's been treating them pretty well, so these rumors basically line up with plain ol' reasonable assumptions. We'll just have to wait to see whether they've got any surprises in store. [The Korea Times via Engadget]

The oldest person in Wayne county, and in all probability the oldest in the whole state, died at her home in Westmoreland, this county, Friday, when Hannah Blankenship, age 108 years, died following a comparatively recent illness.
Notwithstanding the fact that she was more than one hundred years old, Mrs. Blankenship was active until within a few months before her death.
The aged Westmoreland woman made her home with her daughter, Mrs. Maggie Loar.
"When I pass out I don't want any fine silks," Mrs. Loar quoted her mother as often saying. "I just want to wear a black dress like I used to have when I went out in the country."
And this rugged mountain woman, who was not without a vein of sentiment, wanted on her head a cap like the women of another day wore in the last long sleep.
She had her wish. Fitting snugly to her brow was a little black cap, trimmed with white frill about its edge. And the coffin--it was made at her request by R. R. Via--was covered with black broadcloth and lined with silver cloth, just as she had wanted it. Around the edge of the coffin, at the top, was a black lace ruffle, and this also was as she had asked.
Even the curious superstitions retained by the old lady as a heritage from the mountain fastness were respected, and she was laid out, not by an undertaker, but by intimate friends. They placed copper coins on her closed eyes , and a bowl of salt on her form--the latter precaution to keep the body from swelling.
Mrs. Blankenship, as nearly as she could remember, was born in 1816, in Pike County, Kentucky, and there she was reared. When she was little more than two years old, her mother died. She and her brother were then placed under the care of paternal grandmother.
"She took care of us, and we lived with her for a long time," she said recently in recalling a few incidents in connection with her childhood.
They had a hard time to get along, she said. Her father remarried when she was eight years old. He died at the lage of 104 years.
Until two years ago, when rheumatism crippled her, Mrs. Blankenship was active. She frequently walked from her daughter's home in Westmoreland to Huntington or to Ceredo. And even after rheumatism handicapped her in her usual activities, she insisted on going to the polls to vote.
She attended services on the occasion of Mother's Day one year ago at Vinson Memorial churach and won a prize awarded to the oldest mother present. Up the Big Sandy river, she had been a member of the Baptist church.
Mrs. Blankenship smoked all her life. She couldn't remember just when she started, but for many, many years a pipe had been her most constant companion.
Her own children she reared in Catlettsburg. Three of them are living--the daughter already mentioned, and two sons, H. M. and Harvey Blankenship.
The venerable woman always wore a black sunbonnet, a white apron and collar, and took considerable pride in her appearance. Her mind was good up the the last few weeks. Her teeth all were good, as were also her eyes. She pieced quilts up to the last year of her life.
Twenty-four grandchildren, twenty-two great-grandchildren and numerous great-great grandchildren survive. Miss Runyon was Mrs. Blankenship's maiden name. She was married at the age of sixteen to Conley Blankenship.
Funeral services were conducted Sunday morning at the home of her daughter in Westmoreland. Burial was in Catlettsburg, where her youngest half-sister had been laid to rest.
Four men. . .arrested by state and federal prohibition agents in a series of moonshine raids in the upper end of Wayne county, were held to the next term of federal court at Huntington, when arraigned before United States Commissioner J. P. Douglass on Monday. All were returned to jail in default of bond. Approximately 2, 700 gallons of corn mash, three moonshine stills and a quantity of shine were confiscated by the officers conducting the raids. A gun battle between three moonshiners and Clay Williams, state prohibition agent, and United States Marshal E. E. Buskirk, brought the raiding expedition to an end. The officers believe one of the moonshiners was shot and seriously wounded. The raid was conducted on Alum Branch near the mouth of Kiahs Creek in Grant district.

[Illinois] CNST 2012: Panel Discussion
Published on
CNST Workshop 2012
May 2–3, 2012
Showcasing University of Illinois research in bionanotechnology/nanomedicine, nanoelectronics/nanophotonics, and nanomaterials/nanomanufacturing, leading to cross-campus and industry collaborations
National Center for Supercomputing Applications Micro and Nanotechnology Laboratory University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
Workshop Premise
The broad objective of the University of Illinois Center for Nanoscale Science and Technology (CNST) workshop is to showcase University of Illinois research in bionanotechnology/ nanomedicine, nanoelectronics/nanophotonics, nanomaterials/nanomanufacturing, and computational nanotechnology/nanomechanics.
The general framework of the nanotechnology workshop is similar to those held on campus since 2003; which were all well attended by industry and academia. Some of those interactions have since then led to industry and cross-campus collaborations. The CNST-led forums and workshops have contributed tremendously toward the formation of multidisciplinary teams leading to the establishment of multimillion dollar new nanotechnology centers on-campus. The workshop will provide a forum for industry interactions and collaborations. The workshop brings together campus community (faculty, graduate and undergraduates, administration) from UIUC and other academic institutions, and industry engaged in cutting-edge research. A workshop panel will discuss the roadmap to future direction of research and development in nanotechnology and regional partnerships.
Established in 2001–02, the University of Illinois Center for Nanoscale Science and Technology (CNST) is the premier center for nanotechnology research, education and training, and entrepreneurial and outreach activities.
CNST draws its strength from working as a collaboratory involving the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology, Roy J. Carver Biotechnology Center, Coordinated Science Laboratory,Frederick Seitz Materials Research Laboratory, Institute for Genomic Biology, Micro and Nanotechnology Laboratory, Center for Nanoscale Chemical, Electrical, Mechanical, Manufacturing Systems, National Center for Supercomputing Applications, the Schools of Chemical Sciences and of Molecular and Cellular Biology, and other multidisciplinary centers.
It brings together nanoscale research from across the campus, drawing faculty from engineering, chemistry, physics, biology, neuroscience, agriculture, medicine, and other areas. The center envisions seamless integration of research from materials to devices to systems and applications. CNST is uniquely located to harness the entrepreneurial and technical spirit in downstate Illinois, with ongoing linkages with the University Research Park, the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity, and the State legislature. Industrial and international linkages have also been initiated through multidisciplinary centers. In addition, CNST has embarked on developing a curriculum for nanotechnology education, which will transcend a number of campus departments and units. Exceptional students with interest in nanotechnology projects have been awarded fellowships, as the center prepares the next generation workforce. CNST-led efforts have led to leveraging of existing nanotechnology research labs into also hands-on training sites for molecular and cellular biology, mechanobiology, micro and nanofabrication, and enabling technologies, and tissue engineering.

His research interests lie mainly within the fields of theoretical condensed matter physics and the foundations of quantum mechanics. He has been particularly interested in the possibility of using special condensed-matter systems, such as Josephson devices, to test the validity of the extrapolation of the quantum formalism to the macroscopic level; this interest has led to a considerable amount of technical work on the application of quantum mechanics to collective variables and in particular on ways of incorporating dissipation into the calculations. He is also interested in the theory of superfluid liquid 3He, especially under extreme nonequilibrium conditions, in high-temperature superconductivity, and in the newly realized system of Bose-condensed atomic gases.
Beniamino Barbieri, ISS, Inc. Beniamino Barbieri is the president of ISS, Inc. Since 1984, ISS has been committed to the development and design of highly sensitive scientific instrumentation for research, clinical and industrial applications. Over the years, our innovations introduced to research-grade fluorescence instrumentation generated a second product line for medical applications. In 1992, ISS started a project with the research group at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign headed by Prof. Enrico Gratton and aimed at understanding the behavior of fluorophores in scattering and turbid media; the goal was the development of an instrument suitable for the non-invasive measurements of metabolites in the human body. As a result of this collaboration, ISS introduced a non-invasive Tissue Oximeter for the measurement of the absolute oxygen concentration in tissues, called OxiplexTS. The first prototype of the instrument was completed in 1998; about one hundred units of OxiplexTS have been installed worldwide so far. A second instrument, Imagent, utilized for the mapping of activated brain areas, was added in 2001. Both products have been developed with the generous contribution of The National Institutes of Health through the SBIR program and today they are successfully marketed worldwide by our division ISS Medical, fully dedicated to the development of instrumentation for medical applications.ISS instruments are installed in universities and corporations worldwide. Our customers include several major universities, corporations, hospitals and research institutions across the globe, including, in the United States, The Mayo Foundation, the VA Administration, The National Institute of Standards and Technology, The National Institutes of Health, Oak Ridge National Laboratories and The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

I've heard this song before, "We have conclusive evidence." In the last 63 years, I have heard this song twice or more from the White House.
Gulf of Tonkin Resolution
Forty years ago, the White House and President Johnson submitted the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution to Congress. Congress passed the resolution used to justify the Vietnam Conflict.
The Aug. 4, 1964, facts are clear that the attack did not happen. Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara admitted this in his book and interviews the Aug. 4 attack never happened.
In an article "40th Anniversary of the Gulf of Tonkin Incident" by Dr. John Prados, who heads the Archive's Vietnam and Intelligence Documentation Projects, co-directs its Iraq Documentation Project and is a Senior Research Fellow on national security affairs, including foreign affairs, intelligence and military subjects found no evidence of this attack on Aug. 4, 1964.
Further evidence concerning the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution was written by Martin Fletcher on Nov. 7, 2001. The LBJ tape "confirms Vietnam war error."
In the book, President Johnson admitted in a secret tape recording that the incident he used to win congressional approval for the Vietnam War probably never happened.
Congress approved a resolution authorizing the President to take "all necessary steps, including the use of force" to help America's southeast Asian allies.
Johnson used the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution to drag America ever deeper into the Vietnam War and death of more 57,000 American lives.
Second Song "WMD'S in Iraq"
The song was the same in 21st century. The White House, President Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair charged that Iraqi had WMD'S. On March 19, 2003, it resulted in the military campaign of Operation Iraqi Freedom.
This occurred after a prolonged United Nations inspection in Iraq. The United Nations Security Council members consisting of the United States, Britain, France, Russia and other members demanded a search for WMD'S in Iraq.
After lengthy period of time, in which the U.N. looked for WMDs in Iraq, they found no evidence. However, the White House and Prime Minister Blair would not accept the report.
In Time Magazine, Mark Thompson wrote this headline story on Sept. 6, 2012, "Iraq: How the CIA Says It Blew It on Saddam's WMD."
He wrote:
"Now that we're out of Iraq, the CIA has come clean on how it came to be bamboozled about Saddam Hussein's weapons of mass destruction. The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) ferrets over at the National Security Archive (NSA) petitioned for, and got, the CIA's equivalent of the dog-ate-my-homework."
Bottom line, from the CIA's point of view, Saddam used to lie about possessing WMDs, so we believed he still was.
Unfortunately, the U.S. went to war based largely on that false intelligence. And 4,486 U.S. troops, 318 allies and untold thousands of Iraqis died in the ensuing conflict.
So Americans hear the same old song about Syria. The question will be are we going to make it No. 1 hit again.
Does the White House have the voice recording or email from President Bashar al Assad to use the chemical weapon?
I believe this White House should follow the leadership of President Kennedy. The White House and President Kennedy showed the world the map of Cuba and where the missiles sites were being built.
Will this White House show America people the truth of the Syria attack upon its citizens?

A stream of highly charged particles from the sun is headed straight toward Earth, threatening to plunge cities around the world into darkness and bring the global economy screeching to a halt.
This isn't the premise of the latest doomsday thriller. Massive solar storms have happened before — and another one is likely to occur soon, according to Mike Hapgood, a space weather scientist at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory near Oxford, England.
Much of the planet's electronic equipment, as well as orbiting satellites, have been built to withstand these periodic geomagnetic storms. But the world is still not prepared for a truly damaging solar storm, Hapgood argues in a recent commentary published in the journal Nature.
Hapgood talked with The Times about the potential effects of such a storm and how the world should prepare for it.

After several years and many crashes, my 10M Slingshot Key frankenkite (my first kite) has finally kicked the bucket. Repairs are no longer worth it. So I'm looking around for a replacement. Ideally a new one, because used ones would be too fragile to learn new tricks on. My 12M is an Airush, but I'm not necessarily looking to stay with the same brand. So I'm wondering about what are the characteristics of the different brands? I'm looking for advantages/disadvantages of each.
The available brands is pretty overwhelming, and I don't know where to start. Anecdotally I have heard (or learned):
- The Naishes with the jagged leading edges seem to be hard to relaunch, so I'll probably avoid them.
- I was told Norths are good, but overpriced for non-professionals like me.
- Everyone seems to sell Cabrinhas, is this a good all-around brand?
- Looking for four line kites, odd number of struts (I like to mount a GoPro on the center strut)
A little Googling found some web sites that do comparisons:
but I wonder if there's a more concise summary anywhere of the strengths and weaknesses of each brand. I imagine it depends on the style of kite, too.

Advanced Condenser Systems
Abbe Condenser Design Number Four
In a modern microscope, the substage condenser functions to gather light from the tungsten-halide lamp and concentrates it into an inverted cone of light that illuminates the specimen with parallel beams of uniform intensity from all azimuths over the entire viewfield.
The Abbe condenser illustrated in Figure 1 constitutes the simplest and least corrected condenser design, which has two optical lens elements that produce an image of the illuminated field diaphragm showing signs of optical aberration. When viewed through the eyepieces, the image of the field diaphragm is not sharp and is surrounded by blue and red color at the edges. As a result of minimal optical correction, the Abbe condenser is suited mainly for routine observation with objectives of modest numerical aperture and magnification, such as found on the Intel Play QX3 Computer Microscope.
This condenser design is a prototype intended to replace the stock mixing chamber beneath the stage on the QX3 microscope. After removing the mixing chamber by loosening the two mounting screws, the condenser is attached by similar brackets to the same mounting flange. The stock QX3 tungsten lamp is replaced simultaneously with the mixing chamber.
The condenser system is identical to that described in Abbe Condenser Design Number Two, but lacks the integral lamphouse. Instead, the microscope base has been replaced with a ventilated model that also contains a field lens and a tungsten lamp (see Figure 1). This design, which is modeled after modern research microscopes, requires removal of the stock microscope base and replacement with the new base.
An exterior view of the QX3 base replacement is illustrated in Figure 2 and an exploded view is presented in Figure 3. The design can be executed in aluminum or polymer, with material candidates including acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), polystyrene, and polypropylene. Lens materials can be either polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) or glass, and this choice will affect the major details of lens architecture and design.
The condenser aperture diaphragm can also be constructed of plastic or metal, depending upon lamp choice. As lamp power is increased, a corresponding increase in heat generated by the lamp will necessitate construction of surrounding materials of increasingly higher heat tolerance. The field lens should be constructed of glass to avoid distortion and optical artifacts that may be introduced by heat from the lamp filament. Reflector and heat sink construction materials should be aluminum. The tungsten or tungsten-halide lamp is powered by an external direct current (DC) power supply that draws current from a 120-volt source.

Northwind NV has received statements of compliance for site assessment and site-specific design assessment from GL Renewables Certification for the developer's Northwind Offshore Wind Farm.
The wind project will be located on the Bank Zonder Naam off the coast of Zeebrugge, Belgium. Construction of the wind farm, which includes 72 Vestas V112 turbines, will begin this year, with completion scheduled for 2014.
The assessment of the site design conditions checked the site's environment and soil. The site-specific design assessment covered load assumptions and design of the wind turbine, including the foundation. Wake effects, seismic conditions, complex terrain and extreme temperatures have also been taken into account, according to Northwind.
'The key to realizing successful wind energy projects lies in making the correct strategic decisions in the early stages of project development,' explains Andreas Schroeter, managing director of GL Renewables Certification. 'Completion of those two modules is an important step in realizing the project."

Irene Hoppenberg (Berlin)
Vincent's Bedroom
The color yellow is a visible theme in the artist's work: the color of light; the color of the south. Attribute it to her connection to Vincent van Gogh, who moved to Arles in the South of France because of the special light, because of the color yellow. It was there in France where many of van Gogh's most well-known pictures were created. The house he lived in was yellow; the different variations of paintings depicting the bedroom specifically have become one of his most famous motifs.
These were the same paintings that inspired Irene Hoppenberg's room installation at the Luise. With van Gogh's paintings on hand, she took this opportunity to create an actual space based on his images. The paintings then became a model for what the real room would look like.
Vincent's Bedroom is an artist's room at the "Künstlerheim." With images, bare furnishings, and simplicity it is meant to resemble the atmosphere and circumstances in which Vincent van Gogh lived. The artist wants to stimulate the imagination of the guests, who will be confronted with both the person and the work of one of the most famous artists in history during their stay at the hotel. Literature on the subject is also available to enable the process.

Sean Mountcastle needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
2 winners were selected from 21 designs submitted by 11 freelance designers.
Sea Hag Software
Our team has years of experience building complex software for internet infrastructure, web applications, and mobile applications. We're looking to focus exclusively on Apple's iOS devices with social media apps and games.
Our focus is primarily gamers but we also have plans for several social media related applications (primarily in analytics). Our audience will skew a bit younger due to the games, so the image shouldn't be too frightening.
We need a logo that will look good at many different sizes/resolutions. Example sizes:
- 960 x 640 (iPhone 4 Full Screen)
- 480 x 320 (iPhone 3G/3GS Full Screen)
- 1024 x 768 (iPad Full Screen Landscape)
- 768 x 1024 (iPad Full Screen Portrait)
- 512 x 512 (App Store icon)
- 300 DPI (for clothing)
We really like the logo of the woman (a sea hag) reaching out over the logo text for New England Brewing's Sea Hag IPA:
We're not attached to any particular colors or font, so feel free to experiment. But it should be readable at all of the sizes listed above.
The files we will require are:
Print file format - .eps, .tiff, or .ai (CMYK)
iOS/Web file format - .png and layered .psd (RGB)
