Many wristwatches come with ready adjustable wristbands that are made of leather or plastic with holes and clasps for easy adjustment of the size. However, many designer brand watches and metal watch bands require the removal of metal links to adjust the size down. This may seem like a difficult task at first, but you can do this yourself at home with a few simple tools. Taking the watch to a jeweler or repair place isn't necessary and will cost you money.
Part 1
Sizing Your Watch
1Put the watch on without adjusting it. You will need to note how big the watch is.[1]
- If the watch is very loose, you will have to remove lots of links.
- If the watch is just slightly loose and you aren't in danger of it falling off, you might consider leaving it as is unless it is bothersome.
- If your watch is too small, you will have to buy extra links from the manufacturer to make the band larger.
2Find the clasp. Pinch the band evenly from the clasp until it is the proper size.[2]
- Make sure you have an equal number of links on either side of the clasp that need to be removed.
- This will make sure the watch itself stays centered on the wrist band.
- Write down the number of links that need to be removed from either side of the clasp.
3Get your tools assembled. There are several things you will need to adjust your watch band.[3]
- You will need one or two push pins. You will use these to push the pins that hold the links together out of their holes.
- Get a pair of needle nosed pliers to help you remove the pins.
- You will need a small jewelry hammer.
- Make sure you are working on a flat surface with good lighting. You will need to collect any pins you remove from the band.
Part 2
Removing Links from the Wristband
1Lay the watch on its side on your flat surface. Be sure to leave about 1⁄2 centimeter (0.2 in) of space between the bottom of each removable link and the flat surface.[4]
- Count up the number of links you will need to remove.
- Find the pin holding the last link in place.
- This is where you will remove the links.
2Get your pushpins. Use one of the pushpins to push out the pin holding the wristband link in place.[5]
- Push the sharp end of the pushpin against the head of the link pin.
- If it doesn't give, use your jewelry hammer to force the head of the pushpin into the hole for the link pin.
- A small amount of the push pin should now be protruding from the other side of the link.
- Use the hammer to drive the push pin in further to get more of the link pin out.
3Remove the pin with the pliers. You will have to pull forcefully to get the pin out.[6]
- Once you have enough of the link pin out of the hole on the other side of the wrist band to grasp it with the pliers, you can use the pliers to get it out.
- Grasp the end of the pin tightly with the needle nose pliers.
- Pull it out.
- The links you need from one side of the clasp should be removed now.
- You need to repeat the process for the other side of the wrist band now.
4Detach the clasp from the section of removed links. You will need to do this to put it back onto your wristband.[7]
- Detach it using the same method you did for the links.
- There should be a pin holding the clasp onto the links. Remove it using the hammer, pushpins, and pliers.
- You will now re-attach the clasp to the wristband.
5Attach the clasp back onto the wrist band. Line up the link on the clasp with the last link on one side of your wristband.[8]
- You should see a clear hole where a pin should go to hold the clasp on.
- Take one of the pins you removed and insert it into this hole.
- It should go most of the way in on its own, except for the last little bit on the end.
- Use the hammer to gently pound the pin into the hole the whole way.
- Repeat this process on the other side of the clasp.
- Your watch band is now adjusted and assembled.
6Try on the watch. It should now fit without being too big or too small.[9]
- If you have over-adjusted the watch, try adding a link to each side of the watch band.
- If you haven't taken enough links out, re-assess how many need to be removed for the watch band to be tight enough and comfortable.
- Wear the watch for a few days to make sure its comfortable.
Community Q&A
QuestionWhat about watches with an arrow? Which way do I go?Community AnswerPush the pin out in same direction that arrow points. Do the opposite when reassembling.
QuestionCan I add links to my watch? Because it's too tight.Community AnswerYes, that is perfectly possible. You may need to buy them from the manufacturer if you do not have any extra links.
QuestionWhere do I get the tools to do this?Community AnswerYou can purchase kits online and at watch stores.
QuestionWhere do I get push pins?Community AnswerYou can get push pins from any retail store. If you can't find them there, you can buy them online from retailers like Amazon.
QuestionMy watch is too loose. Can I throw it away?Community AnswerYou can, but remove the battery first. Dispose of the battery in an environmentally responsible way.
QuestionWhere can I get new bands for a watch?Community AnswerTypically from the manufacturer. However, if you there is a scenario where you do not know the manufacturer or cannot get in touch with them, you can always try online marketplaces.
QuestionWhere can I get my watch adjusted and set on Long Island, and what will it cost?Community AnswerIn your search engine of choice, type "watch repair near me". There is no standard fee; different shops charge different rates for services. Call, email or message the shops that appear in your search results describing what you'd like done and ask for rates.
QuestionCan I do this without pushpins?Community AnswerYes. You can use any small, pointed item, like a safety pin, small precision tool, etc.
QuestionCan I use a thumbtack instead of a pushpin?Community AnswerYes; however, I have the best luck with a large safety pin. You can also try a very small screwdriver from a jewelers kit or an eyeglass repair kit. Possibly grind the screwdriver down to the shape or diameter you need, as the screwdriver point will be of a harder metal than a safety pin or thumb tack.
How do I adjust my watch band if it doesn't have a clasp at the end?
How do I adjust my watch band if it has tiny screws instead of pins?
wikiHow Video: How to Adjust a Watch Band
Article SummaryX
To adjust a watch band, start by putting the watch on your wrist and pinching the clasp until the watch feels tight enough. Then, count the number of links on each side of the clasp that will need to be removed. Next, take your watch off and use a pushpin to push out the pins that are connecting the unwanted links to the watch band. Use pliers to pull the pins out all the way. Finally, remove the unwanted links and reattach the clasp to the rest of the band. For tips on getting the clasp back on your watch band, scroll down!
- Use a hard flat surface for this procedure, so as to minimize movement of the watch as you're trying to adjust it.
- If your watch band is too loose, and you're thinking of just throwing it away, why not sell it instead? You'll make some of the money back towards a new watch.

Order and Progress: Unburden
With Rouzbeh Akhbari
La Fabrique Culturelle des Anciens Abattoirs
Casablanca, Morocco
As Part of Boxes, Zones and Quarters Residency
July 11, 2014
Order and Progress is a two-part performance and installation project, which critiques the complex and ongoing tension between discourses of progress and colonialization. The second half of the project, Unburden, was an interactive installation project that involved the transformation of a site of slaughter into a site for cleansing and discussion. Through the appropriation of imagery and methodologies from historical and ongoing notions of hygiene and sanitation, a space was created for the critical discussion of these notions and their relationship to performing power. The project took place at La Fabrique Culturelle des Anciens Abattoirs a French colonial-era slaughterhouse constructed in 1922 by Parisian architects Albert Greslin and Georges-Ernest Desmarest which has been transformed since it's closure in 2000 into an important site of counter-culture in Morocco and one of the only venues of resistance culture. The slaughterhouse was constructed as part of the French 'modernization' project to establish French standards of hygiene and building construction on a growing Casablanca population. The location of Les Abattoirs is adjacent to neighbourhoods such as Carrière Centrale, which was a focal points of resistance against the French colonial government and the police station in Derb Moulay Cherif, notorious as the site of extensive torture of leftist activists under the rule of Hassan II.
Unburden took place in the one room in Les Abattoir which was designated for the slaughter of pigs and has since 2000 remained derelict. The room was cleaned and turned into a Hammam/spa equipped with: a decorative fountain, a basin filled with water and sand from the Sahara, public towels, videos displaying a water fountain installed on a dune in the Sahara, and three major staples of Morocco's diet and exports; salt, oranges, and olives. In the centre of the room was a large vinyl banner that advertised Pears soap, visually separating bathers from the entrance view of the space.
Visitors at the Hamam
Visitors were invited to scrap the dead skin from their feet with salt, eat oranges and olives and discuss how notions of cleansing and whiteness have historical roots in colonialism in Morocco and its lingering effects on the contemporary society. Discussions initially centred on Pears' use of 'White Man's Burden' rhetoric and imagery in their ad campaigns at the turn of the century and its ideological linkages to notions of cleansing.
After several hours of discussion and indulgence in the oranges and olives people threw aside the vinyl banner of the Pears soap which was visually dividing the discussion space from the group of people watching from the entrance. After this image of colonialism was cast aside people began diving into the pool, slashing and throwing oranges, the clear waters of the basin mixed with the sand and became muddy, the floor was checkered with shoe prints and orange peels and olives were strewn about. When the night was finished the remaining oranges and olives which given to the guardians of Les Abittoir and visitors were invited to take the towels and anything else they wished to take from the installation.
The Site Before Transformation.
When the project began the room was completely derelict, strewn with donkey feces, a desiccated dog and a recently killed cat and the ceilings were shedding large sections of concrete. After a lengthy process of removing rubble and the various accumulations the space was washed and freshly painted, the floors white (to mark the movements of visitors) and the basin indigo blue (to reference the dye central to the traditional cloths of Sahrawi and Berber peoples).

HAMSTERS & HEROIN: Not all junkies are purse-snatching grandmother-killing psychos. I'm keeping this blog to bear witness to that fact.
Gledwoods deutscher Blog
I was told by a mental health nurse that my heroin addiction was "self medication" for a mood disorder that has recently become severe enough to cause psychotic episodes. As well as methadone I take antipsychotics daily. Despite my problems I consider myself a very sane person. My priority is to attain stability. I go to Narcotics Anonymous because I "want what they have" ~ Serenity.
My old blog used to say "candid confessions of a heroin and crack cocaine addict" how come that one comes up when I google "heroin blog" and not this one. THIS IS MY BLOG. I don't flatter myself that every reader knows everything about me and follows closely every single word every day which is why I repeat myself. Most of that is for your benefit not mine.
This is my own private diary, my journal. It is aimed at impressing no-one. It is kept for my own benefit to show where I have been and hopefully to put off somebody somewhere from ever getting into the awful mess I did and still cannot crawl out of. Despite no drugs. I still drink, I'm currently working on reducing my alcohol intake to zero.
If you have something to say you are welcome to comment. Frankness I can handle. Timewasters should try their own suggestions on themselves before wasting time thinking of ME.
PS After years of waxing and waning "mental" symptoms that made me think I had depression and possibly mild bipolar I now have found out I'm schizoaffective. My mood has been constantly "cycling" since December 2010. Mostly towards mania (an excited non-druggy "high"). For me, schizoaffective means bipolar with (sometimes severe) mania and flashes of depression (occasionally severe) with bits of schizophrenia chucked on top. You could see it as bipolar manic-depression with sparkly knobs on ... I'm on antipsychotic pills but currently no mood stabilizer. I quite enjoy being a bit manic it gives the feelings of confidence and excitement people say they use cocaine for. But this is natural and it's free, so I don't see my "illness" as a downer. It does, however, make life exceedingly hard to engage with...
PPS The "elevated mood" is long gone. Now I'm depressed. Forget any ideas of "happiness" I have given up heroin and want OFF methadone as quick as humanly possible. I'm fed up of being a drug addict. Sick to death of it. I wanna be CLEAN!!!

Blasting the Past
In a way I shouldn't really complain as the alternative to a methadone script would be a life of unimaginable chaos (not to mention insecurity) ...
Methadone holds you - whether you're on the verge of sickness but not quite there, or you're OK, or even slightly stoned. It holds you and does so persistently once you've achieved a level in your body. But the upshot of methadone very often is -- and I'll hardly be the first one to say this -- you live a flat existence of a life. Monochrome and uninspiring. As if someone's turned down the colour and brightness on your TV. Everything comes through. What can you complain about. No one specific thing is wrong. And you certainly don't deserve to complain. But it's there. All the time. This consistent, persistent, sunken feeling ...
My video blog has really cheered me. Firstly all the musical stuff there (apart from some of the foreign rave trailer type things -- but all the stuff by vocalists and bands) I trawled specifically for. I've departed upon a magickal mystery tour of my past musical loves. You will notice I value the female voice far above the male (can't explain why: always have done). And my tastes in a lot of things (especially as I've got older) are very middle of the road and I don't apologize for this. Two tunes have been whirling round my head.
Eurythmics' "Angel" which got into my subconscious a few years back when I fell asleep to a Eurythmics concert on telly, waking up from tangled dreams with this playing out. The video's pretty dreamlike, too, which is why I went for that over the live version ...
And secondly that Tammy Wynette + KLF track ... For a brief while in the early 90s the KLF were slapping out dancey pop tunes of the highest calibre and what they lacked in "credibility" they cannily made up for in "ironical" value amongst the critics of the day. If you listed the elements of a really catchy pop production on a piece of paper - the KLF's stuff would tick all boxes. They sold shedfuls of albums, then went quiet for a while, appearing only intermittently in bizarre media stunts done in the name of "The K Foundation". The last of these (and the money was real) was to withdraw the £1,000,000 cash they'd made out of their music out of their bank in £50 notes. This they piled in a great heap. Journalists of all persuasions and all manner of publications were invited to the mass burning. And that's exactly what they did. In the name of art they doused paraffin over this money, set fire to it and burnt the lot. £1,000,000 cash.
There's a proverb that in so many words says the following:
Making a million is one thing. Keeping hold of a million: now that really takes some doing.
About a year later one of the K-Foundation "bandmembers" appeared on TV looking sheepish and regretful. He admitted to questioning the wisdom of his actions on that day when his entire life savings went up deliberately in smoke ... all in the name of ... I don't know what. I wonder, does he?

I am looking forward to the weekend, when I too, can enjoy your video blog! I simply have not had the time to give it a proper whirl. I get home, I do my blog, I'm tired and I spend all day on the computer at work so I'm less inspired to spend my evening on one as well. I'm also working hard to finish a cross-stitch wedding sampler that I'm creating for a friends' wedding on June 1st, so I'm stitching most evenings.
Apart from that I also love both songs you just mentioned! The Eurythmics one and the KLM one! I must download them for my iPod!

I stumbled on your blog via Katarina's (I am her ex-roomate that she talks about)and I must say that it is very intriguing. Your candidness took me by surprise as I would be hesitant to put it all out there balls first as you have done. I don't have a blog myself, however, I am a grade A internet lurker...must be the voyeur in me.
I wish you the best of luck with whateva it is you're taking on...

Katarina - did you hear... well I expect you wouldn't have... one of our posh English Duchesses has (with special dispensation from the Home Office, though I don't see why you should need permission to grow natural PLANTS) opened a (high security) poison garden. Much of the stuff is electrically cordened off. Or growing behind wires. So you can't take cuttings. Loads of belladonna, henbane, mandrake, deadly nightshade, digitalis (foxgloves) etc. I've no idea whether there's deathcaps, destroying angels and panthers there ... (don't know that she did fungus, also maybe it's hard to cultivate. Deathcaps are meant to grow around the roots of oak trees ....) This poison garden's been on TV loads of times and is extremely popular, making her aristocrattedness a fortune I expect to pay for the leaky stately roofs ... I'm with your fascination with the plants, totally ....

If you have a slow connexion and are unused to viewing multiscreen films on Youtube here's what to do: click the first one and play on mute, stopping and starting as it does. Then, when it's done, click on Repeat Play and you get the full entertainment without interruption. While you watch screen one, do the same to screens 2, 3 and so on. So as each bit finishes, the next part's ready and waiting.
Mexican Black Tar Heroin: "Dark End"
Khun Sa, whose name meant Prince Prosperous, had been, before his death in the mid 2000s, the world's biggest dealer in China White Heroin: "Lord of the Golden Triangle"
In-depth portrait of the Afghan heroin trade at its very height. Includes heroin-lab bust. "Afghanistan's Fateful Harvest"
Classic miniseries whose title became a catchphrase for the misery of life in East Asian prison. Nicole Kidman plays a privileged middle-class girl set up to mule heroin through Thai customs with the inevitable consequences. This is so long it had to be posted in two parts. "Bangkok Hilton 1" (first 2 hours or so); "Bangkok Hilton 2" (last couple of hours).
Short film: from tapwater-clear H4 in the USA to murky black Afghan brown in Norway: "Heroin Addicts Speak"
Before his untimely death this guy kept a video diary. Here's the hour-long highlights as broadcast on BBC TV: "Ben: Diary of a Heroin Addict". Thanks to Noah for the original link.
Some of the most entertaining scenes from Britain's top soap (as much for the poor research as anything else). Not even Phil Mitchell would go from nought to multi-hundred pound binges this fast: "Phil Mitchell on Crack" (just over 5 minutes).
Scientist lady shows us how to cook up gear: "How Much Citric?" Lucky cow: her brown is 70% purity! Oddly we never see her actually do her hit... maybe she got camera shy...
And lastly:
German documentary following a life from teenage addiction to untimely death before the age of 30. The decline in this girl's appearance is truly shocking. "Süchtig: Protokoll einer Hilflosigkeit". Sorry no subtitles; this is here for anyone learning German who's after practice material a little more gripping than Lindenstraße!

Lime soup. If there is one traditional dish in the Yucatan Peninsula, this is it. Translated as "lime soup", this is more of a spicy chicken with tomato soup. Contrary to the name, limes are not the major ingredient in this savory and standard soup. It is basically a chicken or turkey vegetable soup flavored with limes and made nicely hot with a touch of habanero peppers.
The unique bittersweet limes of the Yucatan, variously referred to as "lima agria", are hard to find abroad, but you can usually get them at Hispanic food markets. It is a cousin to the Key Lime of Florida, but since even that is often hard to come by, I've made it with regular Old Persian limes.
I first had this soup at a little restaurant (more like a glorified kitchen) in the back streets of Cozumel in the late 80s. We befriended the owner and, after several return trips to Mexico, I asked him if I could talk to his chef about their preparation. This recipe is a combination of that recipe, my own experimentation and some tidbits I picked up in some old Mexican cookbooks. This seems like a lot of work, but it's worth it.
2 turkey or 4 chicken wings
1 turkey or 2 chicken carcasses
2 tablespoons cooking salt
½ sweet lime (substitute Persian lime if not available)
1 spring fresh mint (or dried equivalent)
8 whole allspice berries
15 black peppercorns
1 tablespoon fresh oregano (or dried equivalent of 1 teaspoon)
1 stick cinnamon
5 whole cloves
2 medium heads of garlic (about 20 average sized cloves)
2 medium yellow onions, peeled, cut and diced
½ teaspoon cumin seeds
Some cheesecloth
Some wire bag ties or string
Serves/ Yields
8 to 12 servings (depending on your appetite!)
2 quarts salpimentado broth
1 turkey or 2 chicken breasts
3 sweet limes
2 tomatoes
1 güero or chilaca chili (pepper), veins & seeds removed
1 habanero chili (pepper), veins & seeds removed
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro (coriander)
½ cup chopped epazote (wormseed)
6 tortillas
1 lemon
Preparation instructions:
Place the wings and carcasses in four quarts of cold water. If they are not covered, add water to cover. Season with the salt, more or less depending on your personal taste, and boil. Remove the scum as it forms on the surface or the broth. Three ways to prepare the spices (garlic, peppercorns, allspice, oregano, cinnamon, cloves, and cumin seeds). If you are using dried oregano no need to roast or toast.
- Toast light in a toaster oven or regular oven, taking care not to burn them. Toast the garlic with the spices. It is done when the garlic is a light to medium golden color.
- Roast them in a cast iron skillet. You will know they are done when the cumin deeds begin to pop and a delicious aroma is wafting off them. Take care not to burn over-roast.
- I own a spice roaster, basically a mesh basket which I can hold over an open flame and shake to roast the spices. Grind the spice, without the garlic, until you have a medium powder. You can use a spice grinder. I prefer a mortar and pestle. If you are using dried mint you should add it to this spice bag as well. Put into a 4″ square of double cheesecloth and tie off with the bag ties or string. At any time, add the onions, garlic, spice bag, lime and mint to your broth. Reduce over a low heat to about 10 cups. This should take about one hour. When done, strain the entire mixture through a sieve or cheesecloth. Discard the bones, spice bag & vegetables. Cool and skim grease from surface. You now have salpimentado broth! This can be kept and served as a broth or used for the second half of our menu.
Roast the tomatoes in the oven at 400 degrees. When the skin begins to peel and the tomato smokes a bit, pull away the skin. Remove the seeds with the aid of a teaspoon, fry the tomato into a puree and season with salt and pepper. Peel and section the limes. Toast the habanero and güero/ chilaca chiies in the oven until the skin is a medium brown. The best habanero are orange, they are riper. Boil the turkey or chicken breast in the broth with the lime sections, the guero/chilaca chili, tomato puree, cilantro and epazote. Dried ingredients are okay to use, just reduce the amounts accordingly. Fresh epazote is almost impossible to buy in the US. When the meat is cooked, remove from the broth and allow cooling. Reduce the heat on the other ingredients and allow simmering. While this is boiling, cut the tortillas into strips and either fry in a bit of oil to make them crispy or bake in the oven. When the meat is cool to your touch shred into small strips and adds back to the broth. Bring back to a boil. Add the tortillas strips to the soup just prior to serving.
Helpful Hints:
Instead of starting the broth from scratch you can use regular old chicken or turkey stock. Be careful when handling habanero chiles! They are the hottest in the world and the oil from them can burn your skin. Wear protective gloves, or make certain to wash your hands well before doing anything else! Serve this with plenty of hearty beer; Superior, Modelo or Bohemia is recommended.

At Making Movement, we have the opportunity to work with some amazing people who inspire us in our everyday lives. These interviews shed light on how they excel in their art or sport.
What bands or musicians have influenced you the most?
Growing up I listened to The Beatles, Norah Jones, Jack Johnson, and Gillian Welch with my family. Later I became interested in more pop influenced songs of John Mayer, Maroon 5, and Michael Jackson. I think I draw off of music from the folk styles that my parents play, as well as the pop that makes me want to move.
Are there any physical activities that you enjoy or that you feel compliment your musical performance?
I love to dance. I'll dance in slippers in the kitchen. I'll dance at a club. I'll dance a a contradance in a barn or with a partner to pop music. I love to partner dance, to connect and communicate with someone without words. Music moves me.
When you hit a creative block, what's your strategy to get through it?
The ocean helps me be creative. I love to be by the ocean and feel small; it puts things into perspective. Musically, trying to just check in with songwriting a little bit every day. Treating it like a job. Writing even when I don't want to.
What books or authors do you recommend to your friends most often?
Poems by Nayyirah Waheed. The Name of the WInd by Patrick Ruthfuss. Mink River by Brian Doyle.
What are the foods or drinks that you try to consume everyday?
I try to consume so much water. I love to drink water. I try to eat amazing, locally grown foods of all shapes and sizes. I also try to consume a donut everyday. Maybe two.
What do you do on your days off?
On off days I spend time with friends. I cook them dinner. I go to see movies. I dance all night. I make more music.
What rituals do you have before and after a musical performance?
My brother and I (we preform together) try to make sure to give each other a little back pound massage to loosen up before each show. It's very grounding. We also hug. After a show I just want to talk to and meet and hug everyone. Maybe eat a donut.

Manfish: A Story of Jacques Cousteau
Jennifer Berne & Eric Puybaret
Chronicle, 2008 (2008)
Reviewed by Hilary Daninhirsch
loved this mini-biography of Jacques Cousteau. In lilting prose, the author reconstructs the life of the famous underwater explorer, beginning with his boyhood fascination with water. The book continues, in a child-friendly manner, to recount Cousteau's life and the events that led him to invent the aqua-lung and eventually become a world-famous documentary producer and adventurer.
ith dreamlike illustrations, the young Cousteau is depicted joyfully diving underwater, designing blueprints, directing and filming homemade movies, swimming with the fish, and finally, making documentaries about his underwater discoveries. '
Jacques dreamed that someday it would be you, exploring worlds never seen, never imagined. Whole new worlds, silent and shimmering. Worlds that are now yours. To discover. To care for. And to love.
n underlying environmental message, along with a message of, '
If you can dream it, you can do it,
' is both evocative and inspirational. This exceptional book will fire up a child's imagination and may help develop an interest in the sea and in helping to protect marine life.

Authenticity of @ItsMorrissey questioned; Twitter verification scrutinized
There was a lot of buzz after word got out that singer Morrissey had supposedly joined Twitter.
And then it got confusing.
Rolling Stone cited the former Smiths singer's "quasi-official fan club site," which published a quote attributed to Morrissey saying the @ItsMorrissey Twitter handle is "bogus."
However, at the time of this post's publication, the account still has a blue "verified" check mark:
And if you click on the blue "verified" check mark, you're taken to the Twitter FAQ page, where this explanation appears:
So what's going on? Opinions vary:
i don't get it
@itsmorrissey is verified and looks legit
morrissey says it's fake
but that shit looks record label work to me— shadowplay (@sorrowwaited) May 16, 2014
There are all sorts of possibilities, but for now the mystery of who's behind @ItsMorrissey remains unsolved.
Editor's note: This post has been updated to correct an error in the quote from Rolling Stone. The publication referred to Morrissey's "quasi-official fan club site," not his "quasi-official website." Twitchy regrets the error.

Thermally driven reflow of material during annealing was positively used to obtain near-vertical sidewall profiles for high-aspect-ratio nanostructures in InP fabricated by dry etching. This is very promising for achieving high optical quality in photonic crystal (PhC) components. Nearly cylindrical profiles were obtained for high-aspect-ratio PhC holes with diameters as small as 200350 nm. Mini stop bands (MSBs) in line-defect PhC waveguides were experimentally investigated for both as-etched and reshaped hole geometries, and their spectral characteristics were used to assess the quality of PhC fabrication. The spectral characteristics of the MSB in PhC waveguides with reshaped holes showed significant improvement in performance with a transmission dip as deep as 35 dB with sharp edges dropping in intensity more than 30 dB for similar to 4 nm of wavelength change. These results show potential for using high extinction drop-filters in InP-based monolithic photonic integrated circuit applications. Finally, it is proposed that other nanostructure geometries may also benefit from this reshaping process.
Photonic crystals (PhCs) are periodic dielectric structures that exhibit a photonic band gap; a range of wavelengths for which light propagation is forbidden. 2D PhCs exhibit most of the properties as their three dimension counterparts with a compatibility with standard semiconductor processing techniques such as epitaxial growth, electron beam lithography, Plasma deposition/etching and electromechanical lapping/polishing. Indium Phosphide (InP) is the material of choice for photonic devices especially when it comes to realization of coherent light source at 1.55 μm wavelength. Precise engineering of the nanostructures in the PhC lattice offers novel ways to confine, guide and control light in phonic integrated circuits (PICs). Strong confinement of light in PhCs offer novel opportunities in many areas of physics and engineering.
Dry etching, a necessary process step in PhC device manufacturing, is known to introduce damage in the etched material. Process induced damage and its impact on the electrical and optical properties of PhCs depends on the etched material, the etching technique and process parameters. We have demonstrated a novel post-etch process based on so-called mass-transport (MT) technology for the first time on InP-based PhCs that has significantly improved side-wall verticality of etched PhC holes. A statistical analysis performed on several devices fabricated by MT process technology shows a great deal of improvement in the reliability of optical transmission characteristics which is very promising for achieving high optical quality in PhC components. Several PhC devices were manufactured using MT technology.
Broad enough PhC waveguides that operate in the mono/multi-mode regime are interesting for coarse wavelength de-multiplexing. The fundamental mode and higher order mode interaction creates mini-stop band (MSB) in the dispersion diagram where the higher order mode has a lower group velocity which can be considered as slow light regime. In this thesis work, the phenomena of MSBs and its impact on transmission properties have been evaluated. We have proposed and demonstrated a method that enables spectral tuning with sub-nanometer accuracy which is based on the transmission MSB. Along the same lines most of the thesis work relates to broad enough PhC guides that operated in the multimode regime. Temperature tuning experiments on these waveguides reveals a clear red-shift with a gradient of dλ/dT=0.1 nm/˚C. MSBs in these waveguides have been studied by varying the width in incremental amounts.
Analogous to semiconductors heterostructures, photonic heterostructures are composed of two photonic crystals with different band-gaps obtained either by changing the air-fill factor or by the lattice constant. Juxtaposing two PhC and the use of heterostructures in waveguide geometry has been experimentally investigated in this thesis work. In particular, in multimode line defect waveguides the "internal" MSB effect brings a new dimension in single junction-type photonic crystal waveguide (JPCW) and heterostructure W3 (HW3) for fundamental physics and applications. We have also fabricated an ultra-compact polarization beam splitter (PBS) realized by combining a multimode waveguide with internal PhC. MSBs in heterostructure waveguides have shown interesting applications such as designable band-pass flat-top filters, and resonance-like filters with high transmission.
In the course of this work, InGaAsP suspended membrane technology was developed. An H2 cavity with a linewidth of ~0.4 nm, corresponding to a Q value of ~3675 has been shown. InGaAsP PhC membrane is an ideal platform to study coupled quantum well/dot-nanocavity system.

Now for those who see fault whenever we blame #GovernorYari over the unending killings in Zamfara State..
Please read what the Governor said yesterday below.
"On this particular incidence, we had intelligence reports 24 hours before it happened that the bandits were grouping and ready to attack. I alerted the security agencies but unfortunately they sent inadequate personnel to confront these people from where they came from."
Governor Yari remained in Abuja even after been informed of a planned attack.
He also chose to attend other functions ahead of returning to the State and mourn with his people.
Now the question is, will Yari remain in Abuja if he was informed of a planned attack in his own residence?
What is the Governor doing in Abuja that is more important than ensuring the safety of lives and properties of his own people that elected him to serve them?
We have problems in Zamfara State and Governor Yari is the biggest of all our problems for now.
We cannot take these killings anymore!

How To Delete All Dot Files From a Directory In Linux
Have you ever typed this
rm -rf .*
within a directory on Linux and discovered that .* matches the
directories and therefore starts deleting much more than you intended?
In order to properly delete the dot files within a directory while still preserving the directory itself, try this:
rm -rf .[^.]* && rm -rf ..?*
What this will do is ensure that the dot file name has at least one character after the dot and the second rm will do the same for file names that begin with two dots.
If you have any other clever ways to tackle this issue, I'd love to hear from you.

The Philadelphia Phillies reportedly remain "very aggressive" in their pursuit of free-agent left-hander Zach Britton, according to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic.
Other teams are still involved too, with the St. Louis Cardinals among them, according to Jon Heyman of Fancred Sports.
The Phillies made a big splash during Day 2 of the winter meetings on Tuesday, agreeing to a three-year, $50-million contract with outfielder Andrew McCutchen.
Britton is one of the top relievers on the free-agent market, with Craig Kimbrel leading the pack and Adam Ottavino, David Robertson, Andrew Miller, and Jeurys Familia also available. Despite it being robust, the relief market has failed to materialize early in the offseason, with Jesse Chavez the sole bullpen piece to land a new deal.
Britton, 30, missed most of the first half of 2018 while recovering from a ruptured Achilles. Once healthy, the Baltimore Orioles traded the left-hander to the New York Yankees. Between the two clubs, Britton posted a 3.10 ERA and 4.22 FIP over 40 2/3 innings.

A new star is Borna
–Borna Coric, 22, is aiming to defend his title at the Noventi Open in Halle, Germany.
Raised on Croatian clay and hardcourts, Borna Coric had only won 2 matches on grass before coming to Halle, Germany last year.
He figured it out fast. He beat 9-time champion Roger Federer on a cold, damp day when Roger said he was playing his best tennis of the week.

Coric served well, won long rallies with daring winners, and overcame a few flubs along the way.
He said he kept his composure and focussed on his own game rather than the legend across the net. It's a formula that's led Borna to victories over Roger, Rafa, Andy Murray as well as Sascha Zverev early in Halle.
Here are notes from his pressers the last 2 days at the Gerry Weber Open 2018.
–You are probably pretty happy right now but share your feelings with us?
Yes, absolutely. It's been unbelievably big week for me. All I can say is that I didn't expect to come this far. You know, I was just hoping if I can get a match or two just to prepare for Wimbledon well. So, this is kind of a dream come true. Also beating Roger today, like I said on the court, just to share a court with him is really special for me because I have been looking up to him a lot and I remember the days, you know, when I was watching with my dad and my mum, and now I'm here playing him, beating him today. It really does mean a lot to me.
–Congratulations. What were your thoughts going into the match and what worked for you?
I just tried to maybe keep calm, not to get overexcited. I think that was the key. I was really serving well. I couldn't put much returns in the court until the last two games of the third set that I broke him. Until then, I don't think I had one break point. Really he served unbelievable and there were not many chances. But I knew again I'm serving well and, you know, I knew there are going to be a couple of points which are going to be deciding. And that's what happened. I was really lucky in the tiebreak to be honest. He was serving on 6-4 and I made a very good return there, on 6-5 it was a really really lucky point. And I think that first set made a huge difference. If I lost the first set I think it would quite tough for me to win.
–He said that you found your game. Do you agree with said?
Well, yes, I'm still trying to figure out. I'm still speaking with my coaches a lot, basically working on some things. But of course, I'm playing much better. I'm trying to play in the right way, more aggressive than the last three years, trying to be more aggressive, staying closer to the line and also my serve improved a little as well, playing a little bit less tournaments just to come fresher to the tournaments. So, yes, I agree with him. Obviously it was a great week for me. But again now I need to rest and focus on Wimbledon.
–You said you were trying to be more aggressive and stay closer to the baseline but at the same time try to stay calm. How tough is that to find that balance? At 6 all I think you showed a huge fist pump?
Look, I mean, sometimes you need it, I need a big fist pump or something. That's my character and sometimes I need it. But I did reduce that also a lot because especially with my style of play, okay, I'm still more aggressive but in the end I'm not making winners after winners. So, I need to play very long points and then to have all that fist pumps every second point is a little bit too much. I kind of use it when I really feel I need one, all the other time I'm just trying to stay calm, especially here on the grass where I know I'm not going to get many chances.
–Before this week, you had only won two games on grass I think. What was the key this week? Maybe winning the first round against Sascha?
Yes, that maybe. It's one of the keys for sure. It gave me huge confidence. I was really playing well. Like I said in my last press conference as well I think coming here very early, I came on Wednesday, I already hit on Wednesday afternoon. It just gave me these couple of days extra to prepare, to learn how to move, to learn how to hit the balls. So, I think that's the two keys. But yes also the first and the second match and against Seppi as well I think it was really an important match for me.
–You've beaten Murray a couple of times, Rafa I think, Roger today. What gives you the confidence when you're playing some big name player?
Nothing gives me confidence. I'm just trying to go out there and to play my best tennis, not to think about them too much obviously because if you start to think, okay, I know he won this nine or ten times, if you start to think about that, I'm not going to win obviously. So, I just try to focus on myself and not to think about all the other stuff, all the statistics or anything else. I just try to focus on my game plan.
–Generally, how much did it maybe help you to have played Roger in a similar atmosphere in Indian Wells which is very pro-Roger, where the crowd was cheering for him. Did it maybe help you here?
Well I mean I've played big matches also before with a big crowd when they are against me, actually I don't think they are against me but they are more for him. That is really normal and I understand it and of course it should be that way. So, look, I love the crowds, I love all the fans, I don't mind if they are for me, they are not for me, really, it's their choice. But I love it when there's a big hype on the court, a good atmosphere like it was today, like it was also three months ago. It makes me want to play better. It makes me more excited and when I'm more excited I play better. So, I just really loved it today.
–You won today. Croatia I think has a good chance to win the World Cup. I think they have a really good team. Why do you think Croatians are doing so well in sports. It's a small country. There is not that many of you.
Yes, I was following football every day and obviously we really played great. I need to congratulate them as well. I'm also really proud of that and I hope now we can go even further. But about your question. Look, I don't know, I think we are very strange characters. We are big fighters from a small country. We don't have the best conditions to train maybe and to go through. I think that's one of the keys also just to make you tough when you are young not to have all the things which you want, you know.
–Your last match with Roger was very close. What do you think you have to change, especially on grass, to beat him tomorrow?
Look, I think in that match I played almost perfect. I think it was a great match. I was really playing good and, you know, at the end I was maybe a little bit unlucky and again he showed us why he is Number 1 in the world. He played very good in the most important points. So, I don't think I need to change anything. I need to try to play on that level which is not going to be easy for sure because I think that's my best match of the season by far which I played. So, I'm just going to try to play on the same level.
–How do you rate your chances for tomorrow's final?
I mean not big for sure, obviously (laughs) but, look, I'm going to go out there. I'm going to enjoy it. Like I said I didn't expect this at the beginning of the week. You know, today I was a little bit lucky. I'm sorry for Roberto. But I can rest a little bit now which is good. So like I said I don't think my chances are really big but I'm going to go out there and I'm going to try to win. That's for sure.
–It looked like you have gotten to a pretty good groove on the court in the course of the week. Does it change anything for you that today's match was cut short? Does it throw you off the rhythm or might hurt you eventually that you didn't get a match?
No, I think it only benefits me. I had four matches in a row. So, it's fine. I had many points, I played many points. I know how to play on the court already. It's not my first time here. So, I think it only benefits me that I can have the afternoon off. You know, just have a chill afternoon and just get ready for tomorrow.
–I know you grew up playing on clay in Zagreb. I know some people you played with.
Who? Who do you know?
–Pat Jarina. His father is Ismar.
Oh yes, I think I heard of him.
–It is so interesting that you've been able to make the transition to grass. How difficult is it for you to play on this surface? What do you have to do different?
Well, I think there is many things. I played a lot on clay and hard courts. I mean I played on a grass court as well. I started playing when I was 16 in the junior Wimbledon. So, I did get some practice on grass as well but I never kind of maybe believed that I can play well on grass because my first two years on grass were not great. So, I think that was also the case but coming here I came very early here. I came Wednesday morning, I already practiced Wednesday afternoon. So, I think that was also one of the very important points, just to come early and to have those couple of extra days to prepare for the tournament on a grass court. I've been working on my volleys a lot, on my serve as well a lot in the last weekend before I was coming here. So, I think that was the key. But it is for sure very tough and I still think … I mean I'm having a really good tournament so far now but I think I need to improve a lot on the grass. I don't think my game is yet there on the grass. I don't feel as confident as on a clay court for example.
–Do you like being the underdog tomorrow? Does it free up because you've got nothing to lose? You said you already did much better than you expected? Does it free you up for tomorrow?
Yes, I think I like that more than to be a favourite in a game. You know you can be more relaxed and you have nothing to lose. Yes, it frees me up for sure but especially like I said because I'm in the final and I didn't expect that coming here. So, that's one more thing where I can be really really loose. I have really nothing to lose tomorrow. So, I can go out there and I can just try to play my best tennis

1932 Rudge 350cc fully radial engine, almost complete sound bike for restoration. It would make a great vintage race bike, or ride it on the road. Lots of possibilities with this very attractive project.
The only obvious missing part is the front mudguard. The left hand exhaust pipe and silencer are with the bike.
The frame & engine numbers are correct for 1932 and the bike is listed in the Rudge Machine Register.
It comes with the old brown log book, a dating certificate, and a letter from the DVLA dated 1983 confirming the registration number GY 9923.

Pumpkin Carving!
So now that I have shared our pumpkin patch stories, it's time to show what we did with these things! This year Hailey was able to do her own pumpkin! Of course I did Emily's and decided on the most perfect design for her. Hailey spent probably an hour or more cleaning out her pumpkin. She decided that she wanted a puppy so I printed off a puppy head and helped her with getting hers taped on and showing her how to use the poking tool to make the design. I ended up doing all of that for her, but girlfriend did awesome when it came to carving! There was a tiny melt down when the ear collapsed but Kenny was able to fix that. Kenny worked on his the entire time and free handed his design which came out pretty awesome. When I finally got around to starting my pumpkin I was exhausted and ready to quit, but I went ahead and did it, which of course I was glad about! I was happy that we were able to do it this year since we missed last years! And Hailey and I were super excited about the results!

Missile-defense physics may require interceptors to fly into 'the teeth of the Russian early warning net.' If Pyongyang fires a missile at the United States, its most-likely trajectory would take it over the North Pole. A U.S. attempt to shoot down that missile would probably occur within Russian radar space — and possibly over Russia itself. "It's something we're aware of," Gen. Lori Robinson, who leads both U.S.
Northern Command and the North American Aerospace Defense Command, or NORAD, said Wednesday. "It's something we work our way through." By year's end, the U.S. will have deployed 44 ground-based interceptors, or GBIs: 40 at Fort Greeley, Alaska, and four at Vandenberg Air Force Base, California. If deterrence fails, those interceptors would be the last line of defense against a North Korean missile. Each incoming ICBM might be met with four or more GBIs. READ MORE

Parashara named his son Krishna. As he was born on a small island in the middle of the Ganga, he was also calledDwaipayana, Krishna dwaipana grew up in his father's ashram. His life and character were well formed in the conductiveatmosphere of the ashram. He would get up early at the auspicious time of brahmi(dawn before sunrise) do his morningrituals such as sandhyavandana and fire sacrifice. Then he would study the vedas. He would go to the forest and getthe necessary quantities of darbha grass and other samith. He would also get the necessary fuel for homas and for cooking. He would serve his father and other elders in the ashram with singular devotion to the satisfaction of everyone.Ina very short time he mastererd the vedas and shastras and a number of worldly subjects and become an expert in everything he did. Real tapas is nothing but living according to the rules set for one's ashramadharma with devotion andcommitment. As a result of such devoted effort he came to be called a maharshi. He set up his ashram at Badari andbegan to teach hundereds of students and this brought him the name Badarayana as well.
Krishnadwaipana had a number of disciples. He decided to classify the veda, which was until then in one single entity.He classified the veda into four. He thought that this veritable store-house of knowledge would not be easily understood by the future geberation of people. He collected all the hymns in praise of the Lord into one section and called it Rigveda. All the mantras which are used to invoke devas and satisfy them by yajnas were compiled into onegroup and called it Yajurveda. Hymns sung to please the gods who come on being invoked to receive havis at yajnas arecompiled into one section and that is called Samaveda.
All the other mantras which are used in bringing about peace and prosperity, preventing and curing diseases, helpingthe people affected during floods and famins, protecting the good from the bad and processes involved in helpingpeople to live long and healthy lives, helping to amass wealth and such other areas are put together and the collectionis called Atharvaveda.
The four of his were disciples namely Paila, Vaishampayana, Jamini and Sumanthu were initiated to these four vedasand they were invested with the responsibility of continuing the tradition and come together and perform yajnas. AsAs a result of his dividing the veda in to four parts he came to be called Vedavyasa. He had a son by name Shuka.Hewas a Poornabrahmajnai(omniscent) at birth and therefore he was called Shukabrahma.
Sage Vedavyasa wrote the Brama Sutra in which he had discussed in detail all the darshanas which try to seek perfectknowledge about the self and soul. It is also called Vedantha Sutra Shariraka Mimamamsasutra.
The fabulous puranas which existed for thosands of years were not systematically arranged. Sage Vedavyasa divited theminto eighteen Mahapuranas. These puranas give us great details about how to lead a useful and contented life and whatare the duties of a human beings in order to lead such a life and ultimately attain salvation.

Protesters hurled rocks at the police, who fired tear gas at them during a large anti-IS protest in Addis Ababa. The rally was held after the release of a jihadist video showing the execution of Ethiopian Christians.
Around 100,000 protesters gathered in Addis Ababa on Wednesday to condemn the "Islamic State" militia, which beheaded and shot a group of 30 Christians from Ethiopia.
The victims are believed to have been captured in Libya while trying to reach Europe. The "IS" showed their murders in a video published over the weekend.
Although the images of the execution caused outrage among Ethiopians, some of the protesters on Wednesday turned their anger against the authorities, accusing them of not doing enough against the poverty that drives people to attempt a dangerous and often deadly journey towards Europe. Others demanded the government to do more to protect its citizens.
"We are tired of speeches and propaganda! We want action! Revenge for our brothers!" a group of young people chanted before being surrounded by police.
Multiple groups of protesters clashed with the police, throwing stones, while the security forces shot canisters of tear gas. At least 100 people were detained by the police.
Government to 'redouble' antiterrorism action
The government warned the citizens not to go to areas controlled by the Islamic State.
"We will redouble efforts to fight terrorism," Foreign Ministry spokesman Tewolde Mulugeta said on Wednesday, responding to demands for action from the protesters.
"We are trying to create opportunities here for our young people," he added. "We encourage them to exploit those opportunities at home."
'Followers of the cross'
The "IS" execution video showed militants beheading a group of some 12 men on a beach, and a larger group being shot in the head in a desert area. The militants called their captives "followers of the cross from the enemy Ethiopian Church."
Although almost two thirds of Ethiopians are Christian, the country also has an ancient Muslim culture, and the relations between Muslims and Christians have been mostly peaceful for a long time. On Tuesday, Muslim members of the Ethiopian parliament read out verses from the Koran preaching tolerance.
Ethiopian lawmakers also debated possible responses to the killings on Tuesday; it is still unclear whether a military option is on the table.
The authorities have announced three days of national mourning over the massacre.

Harvard women posing nude alongside their theses just might be the way Diamond magazine wins over feminists.
Over cookies and chocolate ice cream in the Women's Center last night, a group of about a dozen undergraduates—all of whom agreed that mainstream pornography objectifies women—tossed around ideas aimed at distinguishing the controversial publication from other pornography magazines.
The discussion, which was sponsored by the Radcliffe Union of Students, featured both Diamond magazine founder Matthew M. Di Pasquale '08 and H Bomb editor Brandon T. Perkovich '11.
Much of the discussion put Di Pasquale on the defensive. He told the crowd numerous times that Diamond's purpose is to allow women to "express themselves" in a pro-sex light—not to objectify them—and that he understands their concerns about typical pornography.
"In the past, there's been resistance to sexual expression. There are still laws against oral sex. I'd be in jail if those were enforced, and probably a lot of you guys, too," he said. "I'm a human being, and I like women. I want to get this discussion [on sex] out of the closet—get sex in the open for guys and girls."
Di Pasquale, who refers to pornography industry trailblazer Hugh Hefner as an influence, said there's both a carnal and humanizing side to Diamond's "Maxim-esque" take on Harvard women.
"One of the ideas behind Diamond is that [the models] are not just sexy girls, but intelligent, smart, successful, Harvard girls," he said. "I want the reader to understand who they are what they're doing in their lives. I read the interviews in Maxim."
Sparked by feminist concern over the direction Di Pasquale would take with Diamond, the hour-and-a-half-long conversation ventured into topics such as gay pornography and sadomasochism.
While H Bomb received praise—Julia T. Havard '11 said that it was "artistic expression" with "a message behind it"—some of those present feared that Diamond would be less like H Bomb and more like mainstream pornography.
"[Pornography] perpetuates the idea in society that it's okay to see women on a page, that it's acceptable in society to objectify women in terms of sexual attractiveness," said Shanti S. Kris '11, who identified herself as a feminist.
"In rape, you're objectifying women through a violent action, so the danger is that it makes it acceptable to look at women as objects," she said.
But despite the fact that the discussion became spirited at times, the conversation ended on a positive note, with those present praising the rise in sexual publications on campus.
H-bomb, which Perkovich says is financially stable after a history of fiscal woes, is set to publish in early April. Diamond plans to put out its premiere issue May 12.
Di Pasquale said that day will be a celebration of women and pornography—and perhaps the start of a profitable, enjoyable business venture.
"I'm doing this for both reasons," he said. "Women and men should be able to freely express themselves sexually."
He added: "And I'm not going to tell you I'm a completely selfless person. I have desires, too, and I'm being completely real with you—it would be a sweet job to be around women all the time."

Been a bit quiet, hasn't it? Good reason; I seem to have ruptured a disk in my lower back (between L5 and S1 for you medical types). The bulging portion of the disk is pressing on my sciatic nerves (on both sides now). The result is constant leg pain and neuropathy in my feet. In other words, what doesn't hurt is numb. One of the strictest prohibitions is lifting of any sort. Nothing heavier than a pencil. This does not bode well for musicking in the near future.
