The removable roof combined with the easy clean plastic makes the eco hen loft childsplay to maintain.
The eco hen loft is up off the ground on legs. These legs are adjustable to suit your desired height. The height of the legs can make the base of your loft anything between 0 - 150mm from the ground.
The external nest boxes make retrieving eggs easy with no need for back breaking crawling into houses. Simply unclip the plastic curl pin, slide back the nest box roof and you have access to the eggs.
The door has an open/ closing mechanism that is hidden when the door is open and the ramp down. This is all attached to the eco hen loft making for easy moving. The locking mechanism simply twists horizontal to lock the door shut. Swivelling the lock vertically means it is hidden underneath the door when it is down.
Your coop will be fully built on site and will require no further assembly when you get it delivered simply clip the nesting boxes into place and it's ready for your chickens.
The eco hen loft is available in green, red, black or grey. It has two perches with more than enough space for your birds to sit on.
The eco hen loft does not need treating so it is as low maintenance as possible.

Start your route in New Concord, OH and head north on SR 83 toward Coshocton, OH. I started to count the number or turns but soon became pleasantly distracted. Lots of places to eat and visit in the Coshocton and Millersburg area. Stay on 83 all the way up until it hits the route's conclusion at Millersburg, OH. If you want to get some great Amish cooking, try Boyd & Wurthmans for great Amish cooking that will stuff you. Or you can try Hog Heaven in Dover for great BBQ (to get to Dover, just head east for about 20 miles on 39 after you make it to Millersburg, OH).
This is riding through the valleys and ridge tops of reclaimed strip mining country and the views are great from ridge to ridge. Got done with a n/b trip and wanted to turn around and go back through the other way.
Road Quality
Smooth and in great shape but narrow with oncoming traffic.
Roadside Amenities
Other than a very small cross road town of Otsego which had no services there is nothing between New Concord and Coshocton but that section is only about 22 miles

Click on cover for hi-res image
What do you do when you want to get away from it all and relax? Do you put on a nose and glasses? No really?!? I just do not see how you can live in the world that you live in doing the things that you do.
Sunglass Moustache is a psychedelic record from Austin dwelling-Louisiana native Ben Millburn. It is also the name of the musicians and artists in his band and on his team. The band made the record in and around Austin, Texas at Church House (Robert Plant, Eddie Vedder, Black Angels) and Good Danny's (Okkervil River, White Denim) studios. "We recorded the majority of the record live, vocals and all, about a week after we got back from a tour of the South. We recorded eight songs in two days. The rest of the record comes from studio improvisations and a song or two from my eight track. The first song 'I Feel Something' was one that we improvised in the studio."
Millburn co-produced the record with producer and member of Sunglass Moustache, Panama Grant. This full-length debut is at times poppy, progressive, psychedelic, cosmic, Texan, funky, bluesy, melodic, driving, and visceral. It builds on the promise shown in Millburn's self released EPs which drew comparisons to the likes of Kurt Vile and Matthew Sweet. The wider influences of this new record range from the progressive music of Talking Heads, Can and Frank Zappa to songwriters such as John Lennon and Jim James. "I wanted to make a record that was at times Elliot Smith and Vic Chesnutt and at times St. Vincent and Dirty Projectors. The spirit of Elephant 6 with the guitar of the Deep South – not too far from modern psychedelia like Unknown Mortal Orchestra."
The album's lyrical themes range from ego and indignation to acceptance and power. It moves from abstract addresses from the throne to reflections on guns in his native Southern Louisiana. "I think it is informed by the future, looking at the present, and planning for the past. " Coupled with the record are eleven music videos, one for each song. Each video written and directed by Millburn and acted, edited, and shot by different members of Sunglass Moustache. "The videos tell the story of Mr. Tuxedo and his rise and reign in power. He gets help -or was it hurt, I can't remember -from the other characters, Mustang Billy and Mr. Taco, along the way."

U.S. Rep. David Cicilline: �I don�t think we should sustain� the troop levels.
U.S. Rep. David Cicilline: "I don't think we should sustain" the
troop levels.
The Providence Journal / Ruben W. Perez
WASHINGTON - While Rhode Island's all-Democrat congressional
delegation joined Monday in hailing the U.S. attack that killed
Osama bin Laden in Pakistan, the legislators also reflected the
nation's division over President Obama's war strategy across the
border in Afghanistan.
The Rhode Island delegation's only outright opponent of the
counterinsurgency strategy -- and the influx of troops that the
president ordered late in 2009 -- is Rep. David N. Cicilline. The
freshman congressman said in a telephone interview that he does not
view the U.S. enterprise in Afghanistan any differently now than he
did before the news broke of bin Laden's death.
The welcome news of bin Laden's death is an occasion to ask "why
a continuing counterinsurgency presence is appropriate," Cicilline
said. "I don't think we should sustain that" at the current level
of more than 100,000 troops.
During his 2010 campaign for Congress, Cicilline suggested a
goal for the president of removing about 50,000 of the U.S. troops
from Afghanistan by July of this year. Mr. Obama has hewed to his
plan of beginning to withdraw an unspecified number of troops by
that date.
Sen. Jack Reed, who has backed Mr. Obama's strategy since
joining in its unveiling at West Point 18 months ago, said the
successful attack on bin Laden "should give everyone confidence" in
the president's national security policies generally.
U.S. Sen. Jack Reed: Attack "should give everyone confidence" in
The Providence Journal / Bob Breidenbach
Such confidence from a public that has grave doubts about Mr.
Obama's course in Afghanistan "should help him make the case" that
he has selected the "best strategy" there, Reed said. Reed stressed
that Mr. Obama must continually "emphasize to the American public"
that the mission in Afghanistan is to ensure that it cannot again
become a base for al-Qaida attacks such as those that bin Laden
ordered against the United States in 2001. Reed said Mr. Obama must
also stress his plans to begin a transition toward Afghanistan's
assumption of its own security against the Taliban.
Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, who generally supports the Obama
policy, said he does not know whether the jubilant response to bin
Laden's death will help Mr. Obama to argue that he is on the right
track in Afghanistan.
U.S. Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse: Death may diminish al-Qaida
The Providence Journal / Andrew Dickerman
Whitehouse speculated that Mr. Obama and his national security
team will enjoy a "significant" boost from the success of the
operation against bin Laden. But bin Laden's death, he said, may
represent a diminution in the threat that al-Qaida represents to
the United States. "The more that threat diminishes, the weaker the
rationale is" for great expenditures of American resources in the
war in Afghanistan.
Whitehouse said he believes the U.S. counterinsurgency has
succeeded in clearing and holding former Taliban bastions. The
bigger challenge may lie in the remaining "build" portion of
classic counterinsurgency strategy, he said, because it is not
clear that the Afghan government can deliver the public works and
services necessary to build durable popular support.
Rep. James R. Langevin, a skeptic of the counterinsurgency
strategy, said, "I don't necessarily make the connection that
because we got Osama bin Laden, we should stay the course."
U.S. Rep. James Langevin: Congress must ask "hard questions"
about Afghanistan.
The Providence Journal / Andrew Dickerman
He said Congress must ask "hard questions" about the Afghanistan
mission as Mr. Obama nears his July deadline for commencing troop

Rescued from an amusement park: bear Luna
Dirt, noise and curious people
Until now, the life of bear Luna was anything but quiet and peaceful. At Lunapark in Vlora, Albania, the bear suffered for years in a tiny cage. The environment was far from a kind home. But yesterday we could finally put an end to this suffering.
FOUR PAWS team on site
Since Monday, our team is in Albania to free two bears from their predicament. Yesterday was Luna's turn: With the help of the Albanian Ministry of the Environment and the authorities, Luna could finally be confiscated. A veterinarian vaccinated and chipped the bear so she was ready for transport to her temporary home. Still at night she arrived there and can now at last get used to her new temporary home.
Here you can donate for the bears in Albania:

According to MTV's Katie Calautti regarding Champagne's most recent film, "Bluesy tunes, bayou vistas and dark plot lines abound. The ever building slow burn that isJackdaw". Jackdaw most recently screened at Fargo Film Festival and is on the lineup for the upcoming Hill Country Film Festival in Fredricksberg. If you can't make a festival screening, you can look for it on ITunes as part of the distribution deal it scored with Academy Award winning short film distributor Shorts HDbecause of its success at the Louisiana Film Prize.One thing is for sure: Champagne is a budding director you want to keep your eye on and some of the best in the business are jumping at the chance to work with him!

Official statistics showing an increase in Taiwan's 65-and-over population indicate that the nation is on course to go from being an "aging society" to an "aged society," Deputy Minister of the Interior Hsiao Chia-chi (蕭家淇) said.
Senior citizens accounted for 11 percent of the country's population as of the end of August, up from 10.9 percent at the end of 2011, according to the Ministry of the Interior's statistics on life expectancy which were released on Tuesday last week.
Hsiao said that with an increase in the population of elderly citizens and a rising life expectancy, it was inevitable that Taiwan will be defined as "aged" — said by the UN to be any society in which 14 percent or more of its population are 65 years old or older.
A society is considered to be "aging" when 7 percent of its population are senior citizens, according to the UN.
Earlier this year, the ministry published an assessment by the Council for Economic Planning and Development that predicted Taiwan would become an "aged" society by 2018 and a "hyper-aged" society — 20 percent of the population 65 or over — by 2025.
Facing these structural changes in the country's population, the ministry realized that it would soon have to tackle issues related to a population with greater numbers of old people, such as rising demand for facilities serving seniors in urban areas, Hsiao said.
The latest statistics confirmed that Taiwanese are living longer, with the average life expectancy rising to 79.51 years last year, up 0.36 years from 2011.
Life expectancy is now at the same level as in Germany and Britain, higher than in the US, China, Malaysia and the Philippines, and lower than in Canada, France, Japan, South Korea and Singapore, according to the data.

It's beyond a bookstore, beyond a great place to eat and beyond colorful! Cook & Book is comprised of two bookstores or blocs: Bloc A houses Comics, Youth, Travel, Fine Arts and Music while Bloc B features Lifestyle, Literature, Kitchen and English. The concept is cleverly designed libraries with their own unique dining experience. That's nine choices: from travel books around an American Airstream trailer cafe to a great meal at La Cucina with a vintage Fiat 500 parked alongside cookbooks, to the Greenhouse Cafe surrounded by garden and lifestyle books to hundreds of books hanging from the ceiling in the sleek literature section. All this and so much more. Interior architects Delacroix & Friant spared nothing when it came to creating an innovative and fanciful place to eat, read and mingle!

I know a popular trend is to wear band tees of various rock and metal icons, but I feel if you don't listen to them or have at least a little bit of knowledge about the band it kind of boosts itself as a fad. So I try to only wear artists that I actually listen to. I know some people don't care either way (and that's fine), but to each is own, but it is important to know what and who you are wearing. I recently discovered a brand that was boosting a shocking image that made me think twice about purchasing it.
Here I layered my jean shorts over leggings just to see how it would look and it turned out to be pretty comfortable and stylish.
So here is the look...enjoy!

In 1986, the Ocean Conservancy's International Coastal Cleanup (ICC) began with just a handful of volunteers collecting trash along the Texas coast. Twenty eight years later, the ICC has become the largest ocean volunteer effort with events across the globe.
One thing that hasn't changed, however, is the pervasiveness of plastic pollution in our ocean ecosystems. In 2013, plastic bags were the 4th most common trash item collected, and the newly released 2014 data confirms this trend. According the 2014 ICC report, the top five items collected in the cleanup were cigarette butts, food wrappers, plastic beverage bottles, plastic bottle caps, and plastic bags (grocery bags being the most common). Plastic pieces topped the list for micro-trash (smaller than 2.5 cm), in front of foam and glass.
With plastic bags and pieces recorded in such great quantities, our efforts towards SB270, the plastic bag ban, become even more necessary. Learn more about SB270, and take action to to show your support here.

Post-screening discussion
This is a story about clothing. It's about the clothes we wear, the people who make them, and the impact the industry is having on our world.
Filmed in countries all over the world, from the brightest runways to the darkest slums, and featuring interviews with the world's leading influencers including Stella McCartney, Livia Firth and Vandana Shiva, The True Cost is an unprecedented project that invites us on an eye opening journey around the world and into the lives of the many people and places behind our clothes.
More than that, it's a look at the long-term health effects of pesticide use, the political effects of exploiting workers' rights, and the economic effects of unchecked consumerism. The True Cost is a groundbreaking documentary film that pulls back the curtain on the untold story and asks us to consider, who really pays the price for our clothing?

Proper product installation is the key to success in every job! From installation to recommended care & maintenance. We'll always be here to help you with your project every step of the way. And when it's done and you have the time to enjoy the look and feel and aura of the wood, make sure you take that time. It's as good for you as laughing a half hour a day, or going on a walk with a child and a dog. This wood has lived. Really lived.Choosing the right finish options for your wood products
Whether you choose a pre finished product or have the finish applied on site, proper finishing is critical and deserves careful consideration. We can do the pre finishing here at Elmwood or provide you with the right products to achive the look you desire. Just let us know how we can help.• UV Oil - Our most popular finish. Developed and used in Europe for decades because of it natural clean appearance and ease of maintenence. This Green product has a medium build, excelent durability and can be refinished easily without sanding.• Natural Oil - Clean and healthy. Hand applied and air dried natural oil penetrates deep into the wood, hardening and protecting from within while allowing the wood to breathe. Natural oil has very little build and can be refinished easily without sanding.
• Hardwax Oil - Traditional european looks. Hand applied and air dried hardwax oil penetrates deep into the wood, hardening and protecting from within as well as covering the surface with a protective matte wax. Hardwax oil has a medium build and can be refinished easily without sanding.• Water Base - Natural with pale tones. Quality German water based finish that is hand applied and air dried. This finish option allows for low to no VOC's with a medium build. Our water base finish provides superior protection while retaining the natural color tones of the wood. Water based finish does not yellow over time like polyurethane.Acclimating wood productsProper acclimation of wood products prior to installation is essential to a succesful finished product. Always allow plenty of time after recieving any wood product for the material to properly and completly acclimate to its new envirenment. This is typically accomplished in a week or two by placing the material as close to its final installation area as possible. HVAC systems should have been running prior to material arrival and set at normal living conditions for a proper acclimation of the wood products.Installing wood flooring over radiant heat
Radiant heat flooring is a quiet, healthy, clean and efficient way to heat any space. With proper installation, wide plank flooring from Elmwood Reclaimed Timber is an ideal choice for radiant heat systems.
• Perfect for allergies - Radiant heat flooring reduces airborne allergens
• Radiant heat is a consistent and even heat source
• Silent and energy efficient, radiant heat makes sense.
• Why consider radiant heat flooring? because you will absolutely love it...
Installing wood flooring over concrete
Wood flooring has been installed over concrete using stringers, or plywood for over a century. Proper site preparation and installation will ensure success when installing wood flooring over concrete. High quality wood and millwork will help to reduce seasonal fluctuations.
• First, the concrete has to be dry.
• Second, a moisture barrier is a must.
• Third, High quality wood and millwork are essential.

Performance, collider batching, and ragdoll fixes.
3:18pm EST - As we hit the halfway point for the week, the team is making great strides in optimizations and fixes. Remember, there will be no update tomorrow as the team is on a new, two week patch schedule. Before we get into it, let's discuss performance a bit...
Since the update last week, performance has suffered. On the client side, players are experiencing very high memory usage, likely caused by a memory leak in the code. On the server end, we're seeing TimeWarnings up the wazoo, resulting in rubber banding and server-wide pauses. Thankfully, Garry is on top of it. Chatting with him earlier, he told me garbage collections appear to be the culprit. Unfortunately, given this new release schedule, we may have to wait another week before we see any relief.
Savas server back online
Making sure our box wasn't the culprit of the poor performance, I shut down our Savas server last night. Although it did free up some resources on our box, it didn't do anything towards improving performance on our other servers. Given this, I've put our Savas server back online. Thanks for bearing with us through this test.

Collider batching is live on the development branch. Combining similar colliders together, this body of work aims at allowing servers to last longer before they hit the Unity 5 collider limit. There is no ability to tell exactly how many colliders get batched at the moment, however, Andre told me he plans on adding some metric for that prior to the update.
Metabolism changes
Garry has shifted some things with metabolism. Most notably, he's increased players calorie consumption, meaning they will need to consume more often. He's also tweaked NPC's metabolism. No specifics on this yes, however, I don't imagine it'll have a huge forward facing impact.
Ragdoll fixes
Garry has also done some important fixes to ragdolls. If you're not aware, animal and player bodies turn into a 'ragdoll' when they die. Creating some annoying bugs, ragdolls don't always carry over the parent properties correctly, resulting in animals which can't be harvested and bodies which can't be looted. The fixes today will hopefully eliminate many of these issues.
Also, Garry fixed a glitch where you could loot bodies at any distance.
Wiping main tomorrow
Although there is no patch scheduled to be released tomorrow, our main 250 slot server is quickly approaching the collider limit. Given this, we will be wiping the map tomorrow at 5pm EST. There will not be a blueprint wipe and no other Rustafied servers will be wiping.
Rustafied is an independent operation. Want to show your support? Donate or become a patron. Thank you!

'Ka Roger' is dead
MANILA (Mindanao Examiner / Oct. 9, 2011) – Philippine communist leaders admitted that one of its spokesmen had died apparently from a heart attack.
Gregorio Rosal alias Ka Roger died on June 22, but his demise was only announced on Sunday to allow more time to inform his family about the death. He was 64.
"The Communist Party of the Philippines wishes to inform its entire membership, all revolutionary forces and the public in general that CPP spokesperson Gregorio "Ka Roger" Rosal passed away in a guerrilla zone on June 22 after suffering a heart attack," it said.
But details of his death were not made public or the place where Rosal had died.
"The public announcement was delayed to allow the concerned organs of the CPP to inform Ka Roger's daughters of their father's demise. Intense military operations prevented information from reaching his daughters with dispatch. Ka Roger's siblings have also been informed of his passing."
"The entire membership of the CPP, Red fighters of the New People's Army, revolutionary forces and the Filipino masses mourn Ka Roger's death. In a separate statement, the CPP Central Committee paid tribute to Ka Roger, saying hi s life of service to the revolution will serve as an inspiration to the people to carry forward their revolutionary struggles," it said.
The Philippine military previously made announcements about Rosal's poor health condition following a stroke in his jungle hideout in Luzon Island. And several times, security officials claimed Rosal had died from lingering illness.
The CPP has called on communist rebels to give tribute to Rosal on October 15.
"On October 15, all units of the NPA will fall in formation to pay tribute to Ka Roger. At exactly 12 noon, they will carry out a gun salute in his memory. All units of the CPP and revolutionary mass organizations are enjoined to launch tribute meetings to remember Ka Roger and his contributions to the historic revolutionary struggles of the Filipino people," it said.

How to keep your entertainment center wires under control
A really common problem for the modern living room is the plethora of wires emanating from the entertainment center. The most likely culprit is a videogame console, as each controller has a wire -- a very long wire, and there are often many controllers. These wires are quite unsightly, and do not make for good impression in your living room, den or common area.
The solution to this from a surprisingly simple: go wireless! Since the most common problem is with videogame controllers, this is probably the best place to start. For older generation consoles, such as GameCube, PlayStation two, etc. wireless versions of the controllers are available, when coupled with a wireless adapter dongle which attaches to the console to relay the data from the wireless controller into the main unit. A different approach, is to upgrade your counsel: the current generation video game consoles come with wireless controllers standard, including the PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii, etc. wire problem, and simply tuck the controllers out of sight when not in use, perhaps on a shelf below a coffee table, etc.
Another common source for wires in the living room, is the ethernet cable -- the cable the may connect your laptop or desktop to the Internet. You can easily eliminate this cable using a wi-fi wireless Internet router. Most modern laptops are equipped with WiFi out-of-the-box; and if this is not available, you can buy a USB WiFi adapter dongle to plug into your laptop.

NEWSText: Satsuki Miyanishi
The exhibition "Adhocracy" will be open at New Museum. It brings together an international group of designers, practitioners, networks, and platforms responding to epochal changes and questioning the very definition of design.
The exhibition explores a new direction in contemporary design through twenty-five projects—presented through artifacts, objects, and films. In the place of standardized, industrialized perfection, the exhibition embraces imperfection as evidence of an emerging force of identity, individuality, and nonlinearity in design. As design welcomes the new technologies of the information age, the field itself is being reshaped. Some have built their practice around the collaborative ideology of the open source movement; others explore the opportunities opened up by new low-cost fabrication technologies. Some are exploring new economic models of production; others are challenging the established hierarchies between designers and end-users.
Date: May 4th – July 7th, 2013
Opening hours: 12:00-18:00 (Thursday, Friday till 22:00)
Closed on Monday, Tuesday
Place: New Museum
Address: 235 Bowery, New York, NY 10002
Entrance Fee: General Admission 12USD / Seniors 8USD / Students 6USD / 18 and under Free

UPDATED at 11:10 am Friday
Two law enforcement officials in New York City say a recently fired store worker shot a former colleague to death and then randomly opened fired on others near the Empire State Building.
The officials say eight other people were struck by bullets but those injuries are not believed to be life threatening.
The officials say the gunman previously worked at a store inside the landmark skyscraper. The shooting happened at about 9 a.m. Friday at 34th Street and Fifth Avenue.
New York City police say hat the gunman is dead. A witness says the shooter was firing indiscriminately. CNN reported 10 people have been shot, two were killed, including the as yet unidentified shooter.
The shooting happened Friday morning at 34th Street and Fifth Avenue. There are reports that the gunman was firing a shotgun.
A fire department spokesman says it received a call about the shooting just after at 9 a.m. Friday and that emergency units were on the scene within minutes.
The department says paramedics are evaluating eight people but some of them may not have been shot.
Aliyah Imam tells Fox 5 News that she was standing at a red light when a woman standing next to her fell to the ground. She says the woman was hit in the hip. She says the gunman was "shooting indiscriminately at people."
CNN reports that there is no terrorist link, according to a law enforcement source. The body of the shooter is under a sheet, lying on the sidewalk near the entrance of the Empire State Building.
Rebecca Fox told CNN that she was walking down Fifth Avenue to her job across the street from the Empire State building, and saw people running. She had headphones on, so didn't hear any shots. She saw woman who had been shot in the foot. She saw police surrounding the shooter on the ground in front of the building.
"It was a crazy scene," she said.

Warner Bros. Colombian Hostage Drama Finds Director
Lorenzo di Bonaventura is producing the true-life thriller with Scott Burns and Thomas McLarty.
David MacKenzie is in negotiations to direct The Mission, the true tale of a Colombian hostage rescue, being developed by Warner Bros.
Lorenzo di Bonaventura is producing the movie with Scott Burns and Thomas McLarty.
Mission tells of Operation Jaque, a five-year plan to locate and rescue Americans who were captured by Colombian guerilla group FARC in 2003. The story centers on a U.S. Special Advisor who devoted years of his life to save 15 hostages, including three Americans, being held. He was finally cut loose from U.S. embassy control and teamed up with a Colombian intelligence agent to pull off the daring rescue.
Peter Landesman and Peter Craig worked on the script.
Courtenay Valenti is overseeing for the studio.
MacKenzie is an award-winning British director known for dark dramas such as Young Adam, the 2003 movie that starred Ewan McGregor and Tilda Swinton, and more recently Starred Up, which featured a who's who of Brit up-and-comers such as Rupert Friend, Jack O'Connell and Ben Mendelsohn. He made his American debut with Spread, the Ashton Kutcher-Anne Heche sex comedy.
MacKenzie is repped by UTA and United Agents.

I decided to experiment with boudoir photography after agreeing to be a model on a Boudoir training session. The fun I had being on the other side of the lens was something I really didn't expect and I left feeling empowered. I decided I wanted to make women feel how I was feeling so experimented with photographing my best friend. As soon as I started I knew I'd found an exciting path. I have always preferred looking at portraits of women as I think there is so much depth and beauty, so actually creating them and making women feel amazing is extremely rewarding.
Your images will be tasteful and stylish in the best possible light. The shoot will take place in my home or if you would prefer in your home in your own surroundings that's fine, if you think it's suitable.
Most women do this as gifts for their partners or future husbands, but I think the most rewarding gift is for her, for YOU. The gift of confidence when she sees her true beauty. So I would recommend this to any woman with or without a partner to show them off to, as this shoot should be for yourself.

The education of Barbara Lawton
Lt. Gov. Barbara Lawton consented to an interview on WLUK-11 in
Madison Ashwaubenon regarding her sudden decision to withdraw from the race for governor. Lawton blamed a conspiracy to prevent women from raising the money to become governor.
"There's a variety of factors but including a way that people who control resources and thinking and press even that conspire whether intentionally or not that make it more of a challenge for women," she said.
Wisconsin is one of 27 states around the country which has never had a female governor. Lawton was seen by many as Wisconsin's best chance for a woman to move into the governor's office.
Many people thought you would be the one to break that barrier.
"I wanted to be the one to change that," Lawton said.
Is it tougher for women?
"Yes of course it's tougher for women there's a different way that we are or aren't covered by the press," she said.
You must not think Wisconsin is ready for a female governor?
"I hate to admit that," she confided.
Is Wisconsin ready for a woman governor? Hard to imagine that it isn't. Given the recent overwhelming re-election of a woman as chief justice of the state supreme court, and the election of other women to the state supreme court, it would seem that women can be competitive in state-wide races in Wisconsin. We have also had a woman as state attorney general and women as state treasurers. The last two lieutenant governors have been women. While the objective of a woman in the governor's office has been unobtainable so far, the evidence suggests that the voters are ready for that possibility.
So let's consider the other factors she mentioned divorced from the gender issue. Surely she knew that she was going to have difficulty raising money before entering the race. She also had to know that there would be a preference by many within the party for anybody but her.
If anything, Lawton had done surprisingly well in gathering support prior to Barrett's entry into the race. While Barrett dithered, Lawton was getting endorsements and donations right up to the moment she quit.
Which brings us back to her original explanation, left still not clarified in this interview. None of the explanations constitute "very personal" reasons for withdrawing. These are all highly public reasons for withdrawing, and were widely understood conditions of the campaign even before she declared her candidacy. None of these reasons explain the silence following her announcement of ending her campaign. None of these reasons even explain the odd way she chose to end her campaign.
We may never know why Lawton withdrew from the race, but let's not pretend that she's some sort of martyr for feminism.

The research in our group revolves around the development and use of femtosecond spectroscopy techniques to reveal the dynamics and mechanisms of intricate processes in complex condensed matter systems. We are working on a number of research projects developing novel experimental techniques and using these techniques to understand a range of different complex systems.
For more information on our group contact Dr Jeff Davis
Jonathan Tollerud, Dr. Christopher Hall, Dr. Jeffrey Davis.
In order to completely describe the properties, dynamics and mechanisms that
determine the function of complex systems we need techniques that are capable of
separating and quantifying different contributions. We are working towards
developing experimental techniques that will enable us to achieve just that.
Many of them based on coherent multi-dimensional spectroscopy (CMDS) and the
advantages it provides. CMDS experiments are similar to multidimensional
NMR, and in principle can break down complex structures and dynamics into
multidimensional datasets, with each. We are developing experimental approaches
that will make these techniques quantitative and more capable of fully and
quantitatively describing complex systems.
You can find more details regarding some of our recent work in these areas below,
or for more information please contact Dr. Jeff Davis.
Fig. The basic configuration of the SLM based CMDS experiment.
Coherent Multi-Dimensional Spectroscopy (CMDS) is a powerful tool for examining electron coupling and dynamics in a wide range of condensed matter systems, including semiconductor nanostructures and biological light harvesting complexes. This technique utilises multiple phase locked laser pulses to excite and probe electronic transitions within the sample during various time periods. The phase and amplitude of the emitted signal are recorded using spectral interferometry. From the data a 2D and/or 3D spectrum can be generated which provides information including which states are coupled, the nature of the coupling, the homogeneous and inhomogenous linewidths, if peak broadening is correlated and the presence of many-body effects.
The spatial light modulator (SLM) based CMDS experiment in the Ultrafast Spectroscopy group is based on a design pioneered at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. A SLM based beam shaper is used to split the input laser beam into four spatially separated and co-propagating beams. A SLM based pulse shaper is used to control the pulse time delays. As all pulses are incident on the same optics the pulses are phase locked. Three of the pulses are used to excite the sample, and the remaining pulse is used to perform spectral interferometry with the emitted signal. The signal is recorded as a function of the time delay between each of the excitation pulses. The multi-dimensional spectrum is then produced by Fourier transforming the detected signal as a function of the excitation pulse time delays. The ultrafast spectroscopy group at Swinburne is the only group in Australia with the experimental capability to perform coherent multi-dimensional spectroscopy.

Fig. A region of the three-dimensional spectrum for the zero-quantum coherence quantum pathway pulse ordering. In this figure four well defined peaks are shown which are due to coherent coupling between spatially separated excitons localised to different quantum wells in an asymmetric double quantum well sample.
Simple systems with well-defined and separated energy levels generally produce clear multi-dimensional spectra from which it is straight forward to identify the contributing quantum pathways. Such samples are well suited for examination using broadband CMDS. In more complex systems where spectral broadening leads to overlapping peaks in multi-dimensional spectra, it can be impossible to separate the contributing quantum pathways. Furthermore, in systems where many-body effects are important, such as semiconductor quantum wells, the excitation of the free-carrier continuum can alter the dynamics of excitons localised to the same quantum well. Such complexities can be significantly simplified by using pathway selective CMDS approach to isolate specific quantum pathways.
In our pathway selective CMDS experiment we use a spatial light modulator based pulse shaper to spectrally shape the excitation pulses. As all excitation pulses are incident on the SLM surface, the spectrum of each excitation pulse can be controlled, yet remain phase-locked. Applied to studying coupled excitons in asymmetric double quantum wells we show that this approach has multiple benefits, including unambiguous quantum pathway identification in multi-dimensional spectra and reduced noise levels on peaks corresponding to weakling coupled states compared to broadband 2D and 3D spectra containing peaks with amplitudes varying over several orders of magnitude.
This is an important first step towards quantitative CMDS for complex systems,
without the need for multi-parameter fits of crowded 2D spectra.

It has been well-established that the relative orientation of transition
dipoles can affect signal strengths in CMDS experiments. Furthermore, by controlling the polarization of each pulse certain pathways can be enhanced or eliminated.
We have exploited the processes that underlie both of these facts to reveal structural information of some components of the light harvesting complex PC645.
We are working towards enhancing this approach to obtain more and more detailed
structural information in more complex systems.

Fig. Flow chart representing the phase retrieval algorithm.
We have developed a technique that determines the phase of the signal emitted in a coherent multi-dimensional spectroscopy experiment from spectrally resolved intensity data without phase stabilised excitation pulses. Using this technique it is possible to perform CMDS in situations where heterodyne detection is impractical, such as two-colour CMDS experiments. Two colour CMDS well suited for performing quantum pathway specific experiments, as well as for accessing spectral regions inaccessible by broadband laser sources.
Phase retrieval algorithms have proven to be effective in multiple areas of physics. In frequency resolved optical gating (FROG), which is a technique used for measuring ultra-short pulses, the algorithm recovers the pulse intensity I(t) and phase φ(t). The algorithm converges to the correct solution by applying constraints on what values the solution can take in time and frequency space based on the known time response of the signal, which depends on the FROG configuration used. In coherent diffractive imaging, where the phase information is required to perform the inverse Fourier transform to reconstruct the sample structure from its diffraction pattern, spatial constraints based on the dimensions of the sample and detector are used. The phase retrieval algorithm developed in our group draws on these two approaches by applying restrictions on the allowed time regions over which the signal should exist (based on causality), as well as using known information about the absorption and emission energies of the sample.
Comparisons between this non-interferometric technique and the more standard interferometric approaches have shown that non-interferometric CMDS can accurately retrieve the phase information and that the two techniques produce equivalent multi-dimensional spectra. We have used this technique to reveal coherent coupling in carotenoids from photosynthetic systems and to explore coherent coupling between spatially separated excitons in asymmetric double quantum wells.

Photosynthesis is the process by which energy from the sun is absorbed (by
plants, algae, some bacteria) and stored in chemical bonds. In the early
stages the energy is absorbed by chromophores in pigment protein complexes and
then transferred to other chromophores and complexes before reaching the reaction
centre, where all the biochemistry starts to happen. These energy transfer
steps occur with very high quantum efficiency. The precise mechanism of
the different energy transfer processes remains a subject of some conjecture.
Recent work has suggested that non-trivial quantum effects may be playing
an important role, but clear experimental evidence for coherent transfer or the
necessity of quantum coherence remains elusive. More recently, it has been
suggested that vibrational modes of the pibment protein complex may be playing
an important role in mediating some of these energy transfer steps. We are
working towards developing a detailed understanding of the relevant quantum
effects and the nature of the interactions between electronic and vibrational
states which can lead to efficient energy transfer. In pursuing these
goals we have developed and utilised a number of experimental approaches and we
are always looking to get more information and detail that will help us
understand these highly complex systems.
You can find more details regarding some of our recent work in these areas below,
or for more information please contact Dr. Jeff Davis.
Light-harvesting complexes are the molecules responsible for the initial stages of photosynthesis, where light from the Sun is converted into excited electronic states of the molecule. These excitations are then transferred within and between light-harvesting complexes towards a reaction centre where energy can be stored. The transfer processes necessarily occur on vanishingly short timescales, so that the energy can be reach the reaction centre before the excitation is quenched. Light-harvesting complexes have evolved to optimize the efficiency of these processes; however, the physical mechanisms behind the energy transfer are still not fully understood.
Recently it has been proposed that quantum mechanical coherence between excited states may play a significant role in energy transfer within the light-harvesting complex, Phycocyanin-645 (PC-645). Our work investigates these complexes we utilize a two-colour four-wave mixing experiment. The advantage of this experiment is that two spectrally narrow pulses (i.e. without any spectral overlap) are used to excite the complex, meaning that only coherences are probed, in isolation from other signals. Our work has used this technique to isolate decoherence times, which are typically difficult to measure in 2D spectroscopy. Further these experiments presented evidence for strong coupling between the electronic states and the phonon bath, which are suggested to be important for energy transfer within the complex.
Recently we have adapted polarization control to the two-colour experiment. This technique helps to separate signals from electronic coherence which typically have similar signatures to vibrational coherences in
this type of experiment. For PC-645 a detailed picture of the energy landscape within this complex has been built up
by using this approach across a range of pulse wavelengths.

Fig. (Top) The spectrally resolved third-order signal from lycopene in
n-hexane. Pulse-1 has a wavelength of 503 nm and pulse-2 and pulse-3 have
a wavelength of 532 nm. The signal extends out to a t23 delay of nearly
2 ps, indicating coherent coupling between states. The modulations indicate
interference with another state and/or transition. (Bottom) The same data spectrally
integrated, with the fit to an oscillating exponential decay in red, giving a
coherence time of 1000 fs and a beat period corresponding to an energy splitting
of 156 cm-1.
We use two-colour vibronic coherence spectroscopy to observe long-lived vibrational coherences in the ground electronic state of carotenoid
molecules, with decoherence times in excess of 1 ps. Lycopene and spheroidene
were studied isolated in solution, and within the LH2 light-harvesting complex
extracted from purple bacteria. The vibrational coherence time is shown to
increase significantly for the carotenoid in the complex. Using this technique, we are also able to follow the
evolution of excited state coherences and find that for carotenoids in the light-harvesting
complex the S2|S0 superposition remains coherent for more than
70 fs. In addition to the implications of this long electronic decoherence time,
the extended coherence allows us to observe the evolution of the excited state
wavepacket. These experiments reveal an enhancement of the vibronic coupling
to the first vibrational level of the CâC stretching mode and/or methyl-rocking
mode in the ground electronic state 70 fs after the initial excitation. These
observations open the door to future experiments and modelling that may be
able to resolve the relaxation dynamics of carotenoids in solution and in natural
light-harvesting systems.

Semiconductor nanostructures, such as quantum wells, quantum dots and nanowires
are increasingly being utilised in light emitting and absorbing devices due to
their strong optical transitions and easy integration with standard
semiconductor electronics. Furthermore, the ability to drastically change their
properties by controlling the size, shape and distribution of nanostructures
makes them an ideal template to explore fundamental physics.
We utilise a range of ultrafast spectroscopy techniques to understand the
dynamics and interactions that follow an initial optical excitation. These
dynamics can tell us about the properties of the nanostructures that are
important for device applications and we are working with collaborators to
explore ZnO quantum wells and a range of nanowire structures that have great
potential for future devices. We are also exploring coherent interactions
in a range of systems (for example double quantum wells) to further our
fundamental understanding of interactions between electronic and phonon states,
the nature of various many body effects and ways to identify and separate
different contributions
Some of our recent work on semiconductor nanostructure is described in more
detail below, but for more information on this work please contact Dr. Jeff Davis.
We demonstrate how spectral shaping in coherent multidimensional spectroscopy
can isolate specific signal pathways and directly access quantitative
details. By selectively exciting pathways involving a coherent superposition
of exciton states we are able to identify, isolate and analyse weak coherent
coupling between spatially separated excitons in an asymmetric double
quantum well. Analysis of the isolated signal elucidates details of the
coherent interactions between the spatially separated excitons. With a
dynamic range exceeding 104 in electric field amplitude, this approach
facilitates quantitative comparisons of different signal pathways and a
comprehensive description of the electronic states and their interactions.

contribution at ωT = 46, 23, 0 and â23 meV.
The cross-peaks discussed in the text have
a box around them. Each slice covers
a range of 7 meV along the ωT axis.
We utilize a three-dimensional (3D) visible spectroscopy to reveal
and explore coherent coupling between excitons localized to GaAs quantum
wells separated by barriers 4 and 6 nm wide. The coupled excitons were
energetically separated by 43 meV, close to the longitudinal optical phonon
energy, due to the different widths of the quantum wells to which they were
localized. The ability to isolate coherence pathways in 3D spectroscopy has
made it possible to not only identify weak coherent coupling, but also to explore
the nature of the coupling through analysis of the peak shapes. This peak shape
analysis showed inhomogeneous broadening of the excitons localized to different
wells to be uncorrelated, as expected, while coupling between heavy-hole and
light-hole excitons localized to the same well was shown to be correlated. To
gain some insight into the coupling mechanism we explored the dependence of
the coupling strength on the barrier width and hence spatial separation. Based on
these results we discuss the possibility of phonon-assisted dipole coupling.
Three-dimensional electronic spectroscopy of excitons in asymmetric double quantum wells

Fig. The solution to the 3D phase retrieval problem is plotted as a function
of the three spectral dimensions, ωτ, ωT , and ωt. The red and yellow
isosurfaces represent the data with constant amplitudes.
We demonstrate three-dimensional (3D) electronic spectroscopy of excitons in a double quantum well system using a three-dimensional phase retrieval algorithm to obtain the phase information that
is lost in the measurement of intensities. By extending the analysis of two-dimensional spectroscopy
to three dimensions, contributions from different quantum mechanical pathways can be further
separated allowing greater insight into the mechanisms responsible for the observed peaks. By
examining different slices of the complete three-dimensional spectrum, not only can the relative amplitudes be determined, but the peak shapes can also be analysed to reveal further details of
the interactions with the environment and inhomogeneous broadening. We apply this technique to
study the coupling between two coupled quantum wells, 5.7 nm and 8 nm wide, separated by a
4 nm barrier. Coupling between the heavy-hole excitons of each well results in a circular cross-peak
indicating no correlation of the inhomogeneous broadening. An additional cross-peak is isolated in
the 3D spectrum which is elongated in the diagonal direction indicating correlated inhomogeneous
broadening. This is attributed to coupling of the excitons involving the two delocalised light-hole
states and the electron state localised on the wide well. The attribution of this peak and the analysis
of the peak shapes is supported by numerical simulations of the electron and hole wavefunctions and
the three-dimensional spectrum based on a density matrix approach. An additional benefit of extending
the phase retrieval algorithm from two to three dimensions is that it becomes substantially more
reliable and less susceptible to noise as a result of the more extensive use of a priori information.

Revealing Quantum Dynamics in Semiconductor Nanostructures with Coherent Multidimensional Spectroscopy
Supervisors: Jeffrey Davis
Semiconductor quantum wells and quantum dots confine electrons and/or holes in one and three dimensions respectively, in a manner similar to the preliminary problem in quantum mechanics of a particle in a box. The great advantage of these QDs and QWs is that the properties can be easily varied by controlling the way in which they are grown. This allows us to use them as a template for testing fundamental quantum phenomena. One such question is the role played by quantum mechanics in photosynthesis, which has been a hot topic over the past 5-10 years. In this project you will utilise the unique experimental capabilities for coherent spectroscopy developed at Swinburne to test various theories for "quantum enhanced" energy transfer.
Coherent Dynamics in Atomically Thin 2D Semiconductors.
Supervisors: Jeffrey Davis
The discovery and of graphene and the subsequent development has led to a huge range of applications based on the remarkable properties of this atomically thin material. Since then there has been numerous new atomically thin 2D materials discovered with similarly interesting and useful properties. Amongst these 2D semiconductors ar of particular interest because their band gap in the visible spectral regions immediately lends them to light absorbing/emitting applications. Indeed, these materials interact very strongly with light, such that even with the naked eye absorption and emission can be easily seen from the 2D layer a single atom thick. These are very new materials and many of the fundamental properties are still not well understood. This project will utilise the state-of-the-art coherent multidimensional spectroscopy capabilities developed at Swinburne to reveal coherent dynamics and the fundamental interactions between optically excited electrons and with their local environment.

This project will seek to exploit these light matter interactions to control and explore the interactions between electronic and nuclear degrees of freedom in 2D. You will utilise coherent nonlinear spectroscopy to explore the interactions between vibrational modes in the 2D crystal and the excited electronic states.
Quantifying Photothermal Heating by Gold Nanoparticles Using Ultrafast Spectroscopy
Supervisors: Jeffrey Davis, James Chon
Gold nanoparticles in various shapes and with different surface treatments are being developed for use in cancer treatment. The mechanism essentially involves the absorption of visible or infra-red light by the nanoparticle and the subsequent conversion of this absorbed energy into heat, which can kill the targeted cancer cells. The efficiency and effectiveness of this type of "photothermal therapy" depends critically on the specifics of the nanoparticles and how well they convert the photon energy into heat. In this project you will use femtosecond laser pulses and the world-class THz time domain spectroscopy experiment within the Swinburne ultrafast spectroscopy group to quantify the dynamics and mechanisms of the photothermal heating of various different gold nanoparticles.

Chapter 9 covered some of the ways in which we can use atomic operations to enable hundreds of threads to safely make concurrent modifications to shared data. In this appendix, we'll look at an advanced method for using atomics to implement locking data structures. On its surface, this topic does not seem much more complicated than anything else we've examined. And in reality, this is accurate. You've learned a lot of complex topics through this book, and locking data structures are no more challenging than these. So, why is this material hiding in the appendix? We don't want to reveal any spoilers, so if you're intrigued, read on, and we'll discuss this through the course of the appendix.

Sheppard's Pie is, by far, one of my favorite recipes! Anything with mashed potatoes, lots of veggies and a delicious sauce is pretty much going to by a winner in my book. When the cold weather comes around, this is a great recipe to make to keep you warm! It's easy to whip up in a large batch and you can add as many veggies in there because we all know you can never have too many! For his recipe, I used carrots, mushrooms peas and corn, but you can add onions, squash, spinach, broccoli, or celery if you'd like. The possibilities are really endless here!
So let's make the Sheppard's Pie Recipe!
Whatever veggies you want to add, cut them up! Be sure that they are bite size. As I previously said, I'm using carrots, mushrooms, peas and corn. Next, cut potatoes into large pieces and add them to the pot with cold water and salt. Cook over high heat until they are soft. Once done, puree with heavy cream, butter and white pepper until nice and smooth!
For the meat mixture, I cooked one pound of ground beef in a pan until fully cooked, draining off the excess fat at the end. Once that's done, we'll set it aside. In a new pot, I melted butter, added mushrooms and cooked until they were deliciously browned.
Next went in the carrots for a few minutes and then the tomato paste. I cooked the paste until it was nicely browned. By allowing it to brown, you'll add a depth of delicious tomato flavor to the filling. But be careful, if the paste isn't cooked long enough, it will have a metallic flavor and that is just gross! Garlic gets added and then the wine!
Yum! Some of the wine cooks off, heat goes off and peas, corn and soy sauce go in!
Last but not least in our steps, we'll add a little stock with cornstarch to thicken our scrumptious sauce!
I used a pie pan to bake my Sheppard's Pie. 375 for about 30 minutes and that's it!
Make this Sheppard's Pie into a balance meal!
Enjoy with a side of fruit, like apple slices, brown rice and a cold glass of milk!
Get the recipe here!
- 2 russet potatoes
- 1 tbsp salt
- 1 pound ground beef 80/20
- 2 cups sliced baby bella mushrooms
- 1 cup diced carrots
- 1 tsp chopped garlic
- 1/2 cup frozen peas
- 1/2 cup frozen corn
- 4 + 2 tbsp butter
- 1 1/2 tbsp tomato paste
- 3/4 cup red wine
- 1 1/2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 1/2 + 1/4 cup beef or vegetable stock
- 1 1/2 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/8 tsp white pepper
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Cut potatoes into large piece. Put in pot with cold water (to cover) and salt. Over high heat, cook until potatoes are soft.
Once potatoes are done, drain and using a stand mixer, add potatoes to bowl. In a small pot, add heavy cream, 4 tablespoons of butter and milk. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat and add to bowl with potatoes. Add white pepper. Slowly mix until potatoes are smooth.
*Note: you may not need all liquid, so add in increments until potatoes are fluffy and not too soft.
In a pan, brown meat. Drain off fat. Set aside.
In a new pan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add mushrooms and sprinkle of salt. Cook until browned, about 7 minutes. Add carrots and cook until slightly softened, about 5 minutes.
Turn heat to medium low and add tomato paste. Stir really well and cook until paste has browned, about 5 minutes. Be sure to continuously stir to prevent paste from burning.
Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Slowly add wine and stir well. Be sure to scrape bottom to get all browned bits up! Cook until 75% of the wine is cooked off and remove from heat.
Add peas, corn, soy sauce and 1 1/2 cups stock to the pot. In a small bowl, mix remaining stock and cornstarch together until smooth.
Add pot back to medium heat and slowly add cornstarch mixture. Bring to boil, stir while mixture thickens and then remove from heat. Add cooked beef.
In a baking dish, add meat mixture and spread evenly. Spoon on mashed potatoes and gently spread. Bake for 30 minutes or until meat mixture begins to bubble. Let cool for 10 minutes and enjoy!
