Today, the workhorse nano-patterning technology is photolithography, in which engineers beam light through slits in specially engineered stencils as a first step to patterning materials underneath. But photolithography requires those top-dollar facilities. A cheaper alternative, called polymer pen lithography (PPL), uses arrays of thousands to millions of tiny polymer pyramids essentially as quills to inscribe different materials onto a surface. PPL, however, has trouble creating varying patterns over large areas, as is needed for making computer chips and many other applications.
Now, researchers led by Northwestern University chemist Chad Mirkin have come up with a cheaper and better way—two, in fact. Both use arrays of polymer pyramids patterned on top of a transparent backing. In the first version, tiny heaters beneath the base of each pyramid make the polymer swell, pushing the tips out as much as 4 micrometers—far enough to touch a nearby surface and apply their ink. The Northwestern researchers demonstrated the approach, reported in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, by writing a 600-square-micrometer version of the periodic table on a silicon wafer, in which the average size of each feature, such as the width of a letter or number, was 1.28 microns.
The second new technique created even smaller features—as little as 120 nanometers across—through a new take on photolithography. The researchers coat an array of transparent polymer pyramids with an opaque gold film, then etch a 100-nanometer hole into the tip of each pyramid. Using the a digital micromirror device similar to those found in media projectors, they split light from an LED into thousands of separate beams and steer each into the base of a separate pyramid. Light emerging from the tips acts as a tiny stylus to write on photosensitive material. Mirkin's team used the technique, reported online this month in Nature Communications, to make working electrical devices including inductors, capacitors, and surface acoustic wave transducers, and even drew a 9-millimeter-square map of the world.
Independent control over each tip opens the door to creating far larger and more complex nano patterns than previous versions of the technology, says Paul Weiss, a nanotechnology expert at the University of California, Los Angeles. "That is significant," he says. The work could make it easier for researchers to fabricate research tools such as complex DNA and protein arrays in which thousands of different biomolecules are dotted across surfaces in order to search for novel drugs or drug targets. But Weiss says that it remains to be seen how far the technology will spread. Previous versions of the technology are now found in labs around the world. But NanoInk, a company that made and sold such systems, recently went out of business. Mirkin says that he is now in discussions with other companies to license the new technology.

In a large corporation I worked in previously a manager purchased a $50,000+ Websphere production license despite the fact that he only needed a container to run a couple of servlets on a small intranet system.
Assuming we agree that this was overkill, to say the least, and that a free servlet runner like Tomcat would probably have sufficed, what type of business/technology use might justify the high cost of an application server such as Websphere? I'm thinking that integration projects are the most likely candidate - i.e. in environments in which multiple legacy systems need to be glued together using Java/Websphere as a bridge or wrapper. Any other good cases?

purchased because my husband has alot of back pain & I thought this mat would make him more comfortable while standing at his work bench- it is exactly as advertized and exactly what I expected
Easy to put together, soft, but firm to stand on.
I ordered to have floor covering in the garage, but one mat is very small and not worth $25.00 per mat. Did not cover much flooring either.
The description says there are "68"x 38" Foam Flooring, 8 Pieces ". I assumed this was eight 68/28 sections. It actually is eight small pieces that when put together are 68/38!!! Otherwise it is a great product, just a little pricy for a small area.
Great for use as a anti fatigue or exercise mat. Can't imagine doing my garage floor with this stuff. Spills of automotive fluids and welding spatter would ruin it but used correctly, the mat is a good thing to have around.
For the price, this floormat is an excellent product. It is being used in our shop on a concrete floor and the cushioning it provides helps with fatique from standing in one place for extended amounts of time.
The size is great but the thickness/padding leaves something to be desired. We'll keep it and use it but would have preferred some more padding.
It's comfortable & affordable, wish there were
other colors.
good product for the price and stays in place

After reading the first 80 reviews I feel compelled to add my own 2 cents. We rented this and I have to agree that in the first few minutes I was revolted by the rock music, being a big fan of historical pieces set in the middle ages. Despite my initial feelings, I stuck it out. Too soon I found myself again annoyed by the styles worn by the Lady Jocelyn. Yuck! "What is going on", I wondered. But already I was finding myself involved in the story line and enjoying the humor, especially the interactions among the main characters. By the end I was willing to admit I'd been entertained and I was in love with all the characters with the possible exception of Jocelyn.
Then we watched all the extra bonus material and I was amazed at the thought and work that went into this movie. I just had to watch it again, having gained a new perspective on WHY things were done the way they were. What I discovered was an extremely entertaining romp.
For those of you who only saw the theatre version or are concerned about the rock and roll references in these reviews, try to see the director's point of view. Throughout history parents have strived to understand their youngsters. Or do we assume that the generations have always perfectly understood one another until it came to the 20th century? Language, music, clothes...isn't it likely that different generations differed as much in opinions then as now? If not then how did the culture ever evolve into something completely different? Notice that I have avoided the term "teens". Well, face it, back then the teens WERE adults. But there must still have been generational gaps. Did they say "wow" in historical times?Read more ›
The show wastes no time whatsoever getting straight to the fun stuff. The above paragraph is the very first thing you'll see in the movie, and the very next is the movie's first joust set to Queen's We Will Rock You. The twist here isn't just a cheap soundtrack, but the fact that it's interwoven into the movie itself. The jousting audience is more of a football crowd, clapping along to the legendary beat and having fun. The herald trumpet players are even shown to belt a few notes, while the guards step along.
The best example I can think of this previously is Robin Hood: Men in Tights. A Knight's Tale takes it one step farther however by taking it all very seriously. By the end of the show you could almost believe it. Heralds that sound more like boxing announcers, armor with famous looking logos, ultra modern hair and outfits, and even an amazing dance sequence that blends classical with modern set to David Bowie. It's a highlight of the movie and worth watching just for that scene alone.
The best thing I can say about A Knight's Tale is how real it all is, despite it's theme. The modern aspects are blended into the events with real tact, the comedy is honestly funny, and the drama is in no way cheapened by the lightheartedness. It's not exactly Oscar material, but the show has a few honestly dramatic and heart touching moments that are go over extremely well to anyone but scoffing critics.Read more ›
After about 20 minutes, you begin to accept the campiness of the film and enjoy it. You realize how absurd it is, but just don't care. The director took a huge gamble with these ideas, but I think it pays off well. You just need to get over the historical inacuracies and corniness of a Knight's Tale and enjoy. Most people in the theater were laughing with the film, not at it.
While not the greatest film ever made, it certainly is a successful one, and provides for an entertaining picture that many should enjoy. If you're considering paying an extra $8 for the "Superbit" eidtion, I would advise just to get the regular edition. I own several Superbit DVDs, and although I can't comment on this one, I have never noticed a difference in quality with Superbit editions over the regular.

European Banking and the Financial Crisis (FINC-484-5)
Objective: This thought leadership seminar is designed to facilitate an in depth exploration of current issues in European banking in the aftermath of the global financial crisis of 2007 - 2009. In Europe banks are more important as a source of finance for the real economy than in the US; therefore understanding the issues facing the banks is key to understanding the future of the European economy. Starting with a short introduction to financial systems and banking, covering the financial crisis, the Euro crisis, and the newly established European Banking Union each session will focus on a distinct topic to allow for a comprehensive, yet focused and digestible discussion of the subject matter from both a micro and a macro perspective.
Format: This seminar consists of lectures, class discussions and group assignments. Source materials will include a combination of first-hand case studies, relevant chapters from the leading text books in the field, most recent academic and industry research, publications from relevant institutions and pertinent news articles from the business press. Students will also be asked – in groups and on the basis of their choice of newspaper article – to lead a discussion on current events in European banking, write a corresponding short opinion / editorial piece and write and present a focused paper in one of the sessions´ topic areas.
Requirements: Prior exposure to the banking sector and / or to Europe is helpful but by no means a requirement. A high level of preparedness and participation, however, is essential to ensure that the seminar is a rewarding experience for all participants.
Contemporary Issues in Business and Society (FINC-484-5)
This seminar will use a roundtable discussion format to facilitate an in-depth exploration of current issues in corporate governance and finance, and how they affect and are influenced by society. Our sessions will focus on a combination of predetermined topics and ones chosen by students from the current events of the week. We will begin by debating a central question in corporate governance: should creating value for shareholders be the firm's first priority? The seminar will also discuss major issues such as corporate decisions to lay off employees, public policies aimed at achieving gender parity in corporate boardrooms, the growth of executive compensation, and the rise in the top one percent (all topics are subject to change). Source materials will include a combination of business cases, recent academic research, and news articles from the popular press.
Prerequisites: All Students: (FINC-440-0 OR FINC-431-0 OR FINC-441-0)

(Nov. 6, 2013) -- Meet Sergeant Michael Huebner, a veteran of the U.S. Army. He's committed to bettering the lives of his fellow veterans.
As president of the UTSA Student Veterans Association (SVA), he leads the premier advocacy organization for the nearly 3,000 student veterans, their families and service members at UTSA.
Michael ran for president of SVA because he is aware of the many needs and challenges veterans face when returning home.
"I know how a lot of veterans feel right after coming back home and to school," said Huebner. "I have been there, too. I have experienced PTSD and getting shot at in combat, then returning home from the black-and-white world of the military to a more grey world."
In 2004-2005, Huebner was stationed as a combat medic at Kandahar Airfield in Afghanistan. He worked in the operating room and trauma center as both medic and non-commissioned officer in the radiology department.
"I saw everything you could possibly see in that operating room," said Huebner. "Blood, guts, gore and death in southern Afghanistan. There were a lot of sleepless nights."
As a result of his experiences, Michael developed post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). When he came home, he found it difficult to continue working in the medical field. Often, he would get sick simply from walking into a hospital, but he knew he still wanted to help heal people.
It took him several years of counseling, therapy and support from his fellow veterans to get where he is today, Huebner said. When he enrolled at UTSA, he decided to pursue a psychology degree in order to learn to better serve veterans with PTSD.
For Huebner, being a part of the SVA is the least he can do to honor the service of his fellow veterans at UTSA. Next spring, he will graduate with honors. In the future, he plans to pursue his master's and doctoral degrees at UTSA, while continuing his work as an advocate for veterans.
Do you know someone in the UTSA community with an inspiring story or trying to better the lives of their peers? Email us at email@example.com, and we will consider your submission for our next installment of Meet a Roadrunner.

The Kia Venga may be small on the outside but it delivers a surprising amount of space on the inside. The Venga is one of the oldest models in the current Kia range but it was refreshed at the beginning of 2015 to bring its styling and equipment up to date.
The Venga's small dimensions and spacious interior put it in the same class as the Ford B-MAX, Citroen C3 Picasso and Nissan Note. The Venga doesn't cost much to buy or to run and benefits from Kia's impressive seven-year/100,000-mile warranty, so it's a strong candidate if practicality, reliability and affordability are your main priorities.
The engine range consists of four engines, including two petrol engines and two diesel engines in 1.4 and 1.6-litre sizes. Performance from all four is distinctly average, with the bigger petrol engine proving quickest with a 0-62mph time of 10.6 seconds. The smaller of the two diesels is the slowest in the range, with a 0-62mph time of 14 seconds.
It's unlikely that speed is your top priority if considering a Kia Venga, and what the car lacks in pace it makes up for to a certain extent with its low running costs. The 1.6-litre diesel in EcoDynamics trim is the most economical, claiming average fuel consumption of 64.2mpg and CO2 emissions of 115g/km for tax of £30 per year. The 1.4-litre petrol is cheaper to run than the larger petrol engine, returning 50.4mpg and emissions of 130g/km of CO2 for road tax of £110. While these figures are very reasonable, they're not so great that they trump the competition; there are newer rivals that are both more efficient and more powerful.
Space is ultimately the Venga's biggest selling point. It can easily accommodate four adults and there's plenty of leg and headroom. You can create more passenger space or boot space depending on your needs thanks to rear seats that can be slid back and forwards. The Venga offers a huge load area with the rear seats folded too. The 2015 facelift improved the quality of the materials used throughout the car's interior and the car has a reputation for good reliability.
The Venga's high seating position means visibility is excellent. However, it suffers from body lean in corners, its suspension is a bit on the firm side, plus its steering is very light, with little in the way of feedback, so the car isn't much fun to drive. On the other hand, it's well equipped: even the entry-level 1 model features electric front windows, USB ports, MP3 player connectivity and power-folding heated door mirrors, which is impressive for a car at this price point.
There are five other trim levels: 1 Air, SR7, 2, 3, and 4. The 1 Air adds air-conditioning, while the 2 includes alloy wheels, Bluetooth phone connectivity and reversing sensors. You get a seven-inch touchscreen infotainment system and sat nav with 3, while the top-of-the-range 4 comes with a panoramic sunroof, keyless entry and part-leather seats.
SR7 was introduced in 2015 model and includes sharper-looking trim and alloy wheels, reversing sensors, Bluetooth and tinted windows, among other things. It's good value, too, as it costs less than the 2 yet has a similar amount of equipment.
Our pick is the Venga 1.6-litre CRDi diesel 3, though, as it's still an affordable car and offers a good blend of fuel economy and standard equipment.
A full five-star Euro NCAP crash-test rating means the Kia is a safe car. Every version comes with a suite of airbags, hill-start assistance and electronic stability control, too.

Can you check here https://webdomitia.fr/boutique the product on subscription 9.99/month when you click the product to go to product page : https://webdomitia.fr/boutique/boutique/pack-e-commerce/
You get this error message : Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/webdomfr/public_html/wp-content/themes/replete/config-woocommerce/config.php on line 367

With the orange design the error message don't show very clearly…
It's fine with normal products.
Thank you for your help !December 22, 2012 at 4:01 pm #101511
Well, I went in the config.php to the line 367 : foreach($temp_cats as $key => $cat)
And I realised I didn't choose a category for my producut… I did and the bug was fixed.
May be something to add in the code to avoid bug if no category is chosen…December 23, 2012 at 9:28 am #101512
Thanks I'll report it to Kriesi. However tbh (because of SEO & ui reasons) you need to set at least one product category for each product anyway. Otherwise you won't get a proper breadcrumb and the user can't sort/filter the items with the shop widgets. Probably you can fix the error by replacing:
foreach($temp_cats as $key => $cat)
if($cat->parent != 0 && !in_array($cat->term_taxonomy_id, $parent_cat))
$product_category[] = $cat;
$parent_cat[] = $cat->parent;
if(empty($temp_cats)) $temp_cats = array();
foreach($temp_cats as $key => $cat)
if($cat->parent != 0 && !in_array($cat->term_taxonomy_id, $parent_cat))
$product_category[] = $cat;
$parent_cat[] = $cat->parent;
}December 23, 2012 at 5:16 pm #101513
Well, I will just think to set a category !
Making the variable an array even if it's empty before the foreach is simple and should be fixing the bug.
I'll try that in case I forget one more time.
Thank you for your answer !

This invention relates to filter dyes and their use in photographic elements.
Filter dyes are widely used in photographic elements. Filter dyes may be located in several locations in an element. They may be in a radiation-sensitive layer, an overcoat layer, in a layer adjacent to the radiation-sensitive layer, in an interlayer of a multilayer element, in an undercoat layer adjacent to the support or in a backing layer on the side of the support opposite the radiation-sensitive layer.
When incorporated directly in the radiation-sensitive layer they can function to improve sharpness by absorbing light scattered from one silver halide grain to another. Such dyes are referred to as absorber dyes. Filter dyes also function to retard the sensitivity of one light sensitive layer relative to another in a multilayer element. By absorbing some of the exposing radiation the filter dye aids in balancing the sensitivities of all the light sensitive layers.
Filter dyes that function primarily to absorb unwanted radiation due to reflection or refraction from layer interfaces, the layer-support interface, and particularly from the back side of the support, are referred to as antihalation dyes. The layers that contain them are referred to as antihalation layers.
There are other places and purposes for filter dyes and filter layers. For example, a filter layer may be used in or near the overcoat layer to protect the light sensitive layer against radiation from certain spectral regions. In multilayer films where there may be two or more light sensitive layers, it is sometimes necessary to have filter dye interlayers. In duplitized� materials, such as X-ray films, filter layers are used to reduce crossover exposure of the light sensitive layers. Elimination of crossover exposure is an ideal that is highly desirable but has not yet been fully attained.
A number of problems are associated with filter dyes and filter layers. It is very important that the dyes remain in the layer and not wander or diffuse into the adjacent layers. This often necessitates the presence of a mordant to hold the dye in the layer. It is equally important for the dyes to be completely decolorized and/or removed from the element, usually during processing, after they have performed their function. Dye stability, especially under high temperature and high humidity incubation is also important.
In some photographic elements, it is desirable to absorb unwanted radiation across the entire visible spectrum. In such elements it is not unusual to use up to five filter dyes in a single filter layer to accomplish this desirable objective. Clearly it would be an improvement to reduce the number of filter dyes used in the layers of such elements.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,560,214 discloses dyes comprising a carboxyl and phenyl substituted pyrazoline nucleus linked through a methine group to a dialkylaminophenyl group. However these dyes, according to the patent and our own experiments, are migratory.
It is an objective of this invention to provide filter dyes for photographic elements which meet the foregoing requirements for filter dyes, do not cause post process dye stain or migrate from layer to layer and reduce the number of filter dyes needed in a filter layer.
The foregoing objectives are achieved with a dye having the formula: ##STR2## wherein A represents a substituted or unsubstituted nucleus selected from the group consisting of rhodanines, hydantoins, 2-thiohydantions, 4-thiohydantoins, 2,4-oxazolidindiones, 2-thio-2,4-oxazolidindiones, isoxazolinones, barbiturics, 2-thiobarbiturics, and indandiones, said nucleus having a carboxyphenyl substituent or sulfonamidophenyl substituent.
R represents hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms or benzyl,
R1 and R2, each independently, represents alkyl or aryl, or taken together with R5, R6, N and the carbon atoms to which they are attached represent the atoms needed to complete a julolydyl ring,
R3 represents H, alkyl or aryl,
R5 and R6, each independently, represents H, or R5 taken together with R1, or R6 taken together with R2 may represent the atoms necessary to complete a carbocyclic ring such as tetrahydroquinoyl, and
m is 0 or 1.
According to formula (I), A is a substituted or unsubstituted nucleus selected from the group consisting of rhodanines, hydantoins, 2-thiohydantoins, 4-thiohydantions, 2,4-oxazolidindiones, 2-thio-2,4-oxazolidindiones, isoxazolinones, barbiturics, 2-thiobarbiturics, and indandiones, said nucleus having a carboxyphenyl substituent or sulfonamidophenyl substituent. The nuclei useful as A are all ketomethylene nuclei having positions on which it is synthetically feasible to place the carboxy- or sulfonamido-bearing phenyl substituents as required by the invention.
In a preferred embodiment, the dyes of the invention are merostyryl indandione arylidenes having the formula: ##STR3## wherein R represents hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms or benzyl,
R1 and R2, each independently, represents alkyl or aryl, or taken together with R5, R6, N and the carbon atoms to whatever they are attached represent the atoms needed to complete a julolydyl ring,
R3 represents H, alkyl, aryl, alkoxy, hydrogen or acetamido,
R4 represents alkyl, alkoxycarbonyl, aryl, acyl and amido,
R5 and R6 each independently represents H, or R5 taken together with R1, or R6 taken together with R2 represent the atoms necessary to complete a carbocyclic ring,
R8 represents CO2 H or NHSO2 R9 wherein R9 is substituted or unsubstituted alkyl or aryl, and
n is 0 or 1.
Solid particle dispersion of the dyes of this invention leave no residual post-processing stain in processed photographic elements. Polymeric mordants are not needed to immobilize the dyes. Complete immobilization is achieved without mordants. Complete and irreversible dye removal during processing is achieved. Broadened and shifted absorption is obtained, which makes the compositions particularly suitable for filter or antihalation applications. Their broadened absorption bands are particularly useful in reducing the number of dyes needed in a single element to absorb unwanted radiation. Another advantage is superior dye stability when subjected to high temperature and high humidity incubation.
The acyl, alkyl and alkoxy groups may contain from one to twenty carbons. Examples of such groups include acetyl, benzoyl, methyl, ethyl, propyl, methoxy carboxyl, ethoxy carboxyl, butoxycarboxyl, fluoroalkyl, dodecyl, octadecyl. The aryl groups may contain from six to twenty carbons which may be further substituted with a wide variety of groups. Examples of such substituted and unsubstituted aryl groups include phenyl and napthyl with alkyl substituents as defined above.
The carboxylphenyl or sulfonamidophenyl substituent on A in formula (I) and R8 in formula (II) is important in immobilizing the dye at coating pH's of 7 or below.
Useful dyes according to formulas (I) and (II) include the following: ##STR4##
Examples 1-2, infra, relate to the preparation of representative dyes of the invention. Variations on the procedures described to obtain other dyes of this invention are within the skill of the practicing synthetic chemist. Procedures for making such dyes are described in "The Cyanine Dyes and Related Compounds", Frances Hamer, Interscience Publishers, 1984.
A slurry of 5.2 grams (0.02 mol) 5-carboxyl-2-ethoxycarbonyl-1,3-indandione, 3.5 grams (0.02 mol) 4-dimethylamino-cinnamaldehyde and 100 ml of glacial acetic acid was heated at 130� C. with constant stirring for 30 minutes. The dark purple product mixture was then allowed to cool to room temperature and the precipitated product was collected by filtration and washed with ether. The weight of crude product was 4.72 grams. The crude dye was purified by consecutive slurring in refluxing glacial acetic acid, then twice in refluxing methanol to afford 3.7 grams (57.5% yield) of pure dye 2, m.p.=290�-293� C. All analytical (i.e., infrared spectrum, NMR analysis) data were consistent with the structure.
The dyes of this invention are useful in black and white, single color, multicolor or duplitized� X-ray photographic elements. They can be present in any layer of the element where it is desirable to include a filter dye, for example, in the silver halide emulsion layer or a separate filter layer. The dyes of the invention can be utilized in any amount that is useful to filter or absorb light, but it is particularly advantageous to utilize them in an amount and in a location so that they will be solubilized and washed out during processing. In situations where it is desirable to absorb only a small amount of light, only a small amount of dye is needed. In situations where it is desirable to absorb a larger amount of light, larger amounts of dye can be used, as long as the stain level remains at a level that is acceptable for that particular photographic element. The dye is preferably present in the element of the invention in an amount of from 1 to 100 mg/m2. The dye should be present in an amount sufficient to yield an optical density at the transmission D-max in the visible region before processing of at least 0.10 density units and preferably at least 0.50 density units. This optical density will generally be less than 5.0 density units for most photographic applications.
The dyes of the invention are preferably in the form of a solid particle dispersion for incorporation into a hydrophilic layer comprising a polymer binder such as a hydrophilic colloid layer coated on a photographic element, although some of the dyes can also be incorporated in other ways, such as in the solvent phase of an "oil in water type" dispersion or in loaded polymer latex particles, such as those described in Research Disclosure, Item 19551, July, 1980. The solid particle dispersion can be formed by precipitating the dye in the form of a dispersion and/or by well-known milling techniques, e.g., ball-milling or sand-milling the dye in the presence of a dispersing agent. The dye particles in the dispersion preferably have a mean diameter of less than 10 μm and more preferably of less than 1 μm. The dye particles can be conveniently prepared in sizes ranging down to about 0.01 μm or less.
In the following discussion of suitable materials for use in the emulsions and elements of this invention, reference will be made to Research Disclosure, December 1978, Item 17643, published by Kenneth Mason Publications, Ltd., The Old Harbourmaster's, 8 North Street, Emsworth, Hampshire P010 7DD, England, the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference. This publication will be identified hereafter by the term "Research Disclosure".
The radiation-sensitive layer of the element of the invention can contain any of the known radiation-sensitive materials, such as silver halide, diazo image-forming systems, light-sensitive tellurium-containing compounds, light-sensitive cobalt-containing compounds, and others described in, for example, J. Kosar, Light-Sensitive Systems: Chemistry and Application of Nonsilver Halide Photographic Processes, J. Wiley & Sons, N.Y. (1965). Radiation-sensitive materials exhibiting sensitivity to blue light and especially those sensitive to blue light and at least some other wavelength of radiation are preferred, as the dyes according to the invention can be advantageously used to absorb some or all of the blue light.
Silver halide is especially preferred as a radiation-sensitive material. Silver halide emulsions can contain, for example, silver bromide, silver chloride, silver iodide, silver chlorobromide, silver chloroiodide, silver bromoiodide, or mixtures thereof. The emulsions can include coarse, medium, or fine silver halide grains bounded by 100, 111, or 110 crystal planes. Silver halide emulsions and their preparation are further described in Research Disclosure, Section I. Also useful are tabular grain silver halide emulsions, as described in Research Disclosure, January, 1983, Item 22534 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,425,426.
The radiation-sensitive materials described above can be sensitized to a particular wavelength range of radiation, such as the red, blue, or green portions of the visible spectrum, or to other wavelength ranges, such as ultraviolet, infrared, X-ray, and the like. Sensitization of silver halide can be accomplished with chemical sensitizers such as gold compounds, iridium compounds, or other group VIII metal compounds, or with spectral sensitizing dyes such as cyanine dyes, merocyanine dyes, styryls, or other known spectral sensitizers. Additional information on sensitization of silver halide is described in Research Disclosure, Sections I-IV.
Multicolor elements contain dye image-forming units sensitive to each of the three primary regions of the spectrum. Each unit can be comprised of a single emulsion layer or of multiple emulsion layers sensitive to a given region of the spectrum. The layers of the element, including the layers of the image-forming units, can be arranged in various orders as known in the art. In an alternative format, the emulsions sensitive to each of the three primary regions of the spectrum can be disposed as a single segmented layer, e.g., as by the use of microvessels as described in Whitmore U.S. Pat. No. 4,362,806, issued Dec. 7, 1982.
A typical multicolor photographic element would comprise a support bearing a cyan dye image-forming unit comprised of at least one red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer having associated therewith at least one cyan dye-forming coupler, a magenta dye image-forming unit comprising at least one green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer having associated therewith at least one magenta dye-forming coupler and a yellow dye image-forming unit comprising at least one blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer having associated therewith at least one yellow dye-forming coupler. The element can contain additional layers, other filter layers, interlayers, overcoat layers, subbing layers, and the like.
In addition to the couplers the elements can include additional couplers as described in Research Disclosure Section VII, paragraphs D, E, F and G and the publications cited therein. These couplers can be incorporated in the elements and emulsions as described in Research Disclosure Section VII, paragraph C and the publications cited therein.
The photographic elements or individual layers thereof, can contain brighteners (see Research Disclosure Section V), antifoggants and stabilizers (see Research Disclosure Section VI), antistain agents and image dye stabilizers (see Research Disclosure Section VII, paragraphs I and J), light absorbing and scattering materials (see Research Disclosure Section VIII), hardeners (see Research Disclosure Section XI), plasticizers and lubricants (see Research Disclosure Section XII), antistatic agents (see Research Disclosure Section XIII), matting agents (see Research Disclosure Section XVI) and development modifiers (see Research Disclosure Section XXI).
The photographic elements can be coated on a variety of supports as described in Research Disclosure Section XVII and the references described therein.
Photographic elements can be exposed to actinic radiation, typically in the visible region of the spectrum, to form a latent image as described in Research Disclosure Section XVIII and then processed to form a visible dye image as described in Research Disclosure Section XIX. Processing to form a visible dye image includes the step of contacting the element with a color developing agent to reduce developable silver halide and oxidize the color developing agent. Oxidized color developing agent in turn reacts with the coupler to yield a dye.
The dye of formula (I) can be located in any layer of a photographic element where it is desired to absorb light. In preferred embodiment, the dye is preferably located in a layer where it will be subjected to high pH (i.e., 8 to 12) and aqueous sulfite during photographic processing, so as to allow the dye to be solubilized and removed or decolorized.
The photographic elements of the invention, when exposed, can be processed to yield an image. During processing, the dye of formula (I) will generally be decolorized and/or removed. Following processing, the dye of the invention should contribute less than 0.10 density unit, and preferably less than 0.02 density unit to the transmission D-max in the visible region in the minimum density areas of the exposed and processed element.
Processing can be by any type of known photographic processing, as described in Research Disclosure, Sections XIX-XXIV, although it preferably includes a high pH (i.e., 8 or above) step utilizing an aqueous sulfite solution in order to maximize decolorization and removal of the dye. A negative image can be developed by color development with a chromogenic developing agent followed by bleaching and fixing. A positive image can be developed by first developing with a non-chromogenic developer, then uniformly fogging the element, and then developing with a chromogenic developer. If the material does not contain a color-forming coupler compound, dye images can be produced by incorporating a coupler in the developer solutions.
Bleaching and fixing can be performed with any of the materials known to be used for that purpose. Bleach baths generally comprise an aqueous solution of an oxidizing agent such as water soluble salts and complexes of iron (III) (e.g., potassium ferricyanide, ferric chloride, ammonium of potassium salts of ferric ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid), water-soluble persulfates (e.g., potassium, sodium, or ammonium persulfate), water-soluble dichromates (e.g., potassium sodium, and lithium dichromate), and the like. Fixing baths generally comprise an aqueous solution of compounds that form soluble salts with silver ions, such as sodium thiosulfate, ammonium thiosulfate, potassium thiocyanate, sodium thiocyanate, thiourea, and the like.
These examples illustrate the use of the dyes of the invention in filter layers of photographic elements.
The dyes were subjected to ball-milling according to the following procedure. Water (21.7 ml) and a 6.7% solution of Triton X-200� (TX-200�) (2.65 gm) (available from Rohm & Haas) were placed in a 60 ml screw-capped bottle. A 1.00 gm sample of dye was added to this solution. Zirconium oxide (ZrO) beads (40 ml) (2 mm diameter) were added and the container with the cap tightly secured was placed in a Sweco� mill and the contents were milled for four days. The container was removed and the contents added to a 12.5% aqueous gelatin (8.0 gm). The new mixture was placed on a roller mill for 10 minutes to reduce foaming and the resulting mixture was then filtered to remove the ZrO beads.
A spreading agent, surfactant 10G� (available from Olin), and a hardener (bis(vinyl-sulfonylmethyl)ether) were added to the dye-gelatin melt prepared as described in the above in the preparation of the solid particle dye dispersions. A melt prepared from the latter mixture was then coated on polyethylene terephthalate support to achieve a dye coverage of 0.32 g/m2, gelatin coverage of 1.60 g/m2, a spreading agent level of 0.096 g/m2 and a hardener level of 0.016 g/m2. The absorbance of the dye dispersions was measured with a spectrophotometer. Identical elements were subjected to a 5-minute distilled water wash, to Kodak D-6� processing (which is described in British Journal of Photography Annual, 1977, pp. 194-197) and to Kodak Prostar� processing (which is used commercially to process microfilm, subjecting the elements to a development step at a pH of about 11.4 for 30 seconds), and the absorbance was measured for each. The results are presented in Table I.

The results presented in Table I show that the dyes 1-3 according to the invention are not affected by the water wash, indicating no wandering at coating pH, but are fully solubilized for removal and/or decolorization by the photographic processing to which they were subjected.
The invention has been described in detail with particular reference to preferred embodiments thereof, but it will be understood that variations and modifications can be effected within the spirit and scope of the invention.

Highly recommended
The room was beautiful, and with my decorations added, everything was just so perfect.
I loved everything about it!
Nice room. Comfortable bed. Quiet.
Clean and big rooms
Parking was horrible
Wi-Fi bad. Shower didn't work. Bathroom dirty.
The staff was very friendly and polite. I checked in around 5 and upon entering my given room, I saw empty water bottles and other items suggesting someone was still in the room. I went back to the front and the young woman was very apologetic and immediately gave me another room. As, I was standing there the manager or owner not sure which came up and asked me if everything was OK. I said yes and told him what I saw but it really wasn't a big deal. He was very apologetic as well and upset that the room was not cleaned as it should have been as there wasn't anyone in that room any longer.
The pool seemed nice (we didnt use it)
Room was clean
Staff was nice, not overly friendly, but not rude
Walls were thin, (early morning seniors like to sit by the pool-where are room was-and talk loudly)
Bed was too firm for me, but not uncomfortable
Toiletries were sparse (shampoo, lotion, and soap...no conditioner?) and cheap
Fan in the bathroom was broken
Continental breakfast was the worst I've ever had
Location is convenient
The service of the front desk, the lady was rude and inpatient.
I had a great room and i will stay there again
I hate i had to leave
The check-in staff was really nice and understanding because we arrived later than we anticipated.
This hotel needs to use Clorox Bleach when they wash their sheets. Our sheets were dirty and stained. Only one ice machine. If you stay here bring sheets and towels. Also the cleaning staff is rude they don't knock before entering the room.
The location and people staying there was not a good environment at all. Was very worried and did not sleep well at all. This is definitely not a place to take your kids
the hotel is very clean and modern. the rooms were very spacious and comfortable and decorated nicely. the staff was exceptionally nice and helpful.
My only complaint is the walls are paper thin. I could hear my neighbor upstairs walking around and the people in the room next to us.
There was not much i liked about hotel. The lady was very nice and accommodating.
The room was VERY DIRTY
Location Friendly desk clerk and' the maintenance guy who was so willing to help with room problems.
Filthy; dilapidated. In a hurry to get a motel near a medical facility I chose this one without seeing the 'one star'. OMG...I asked myself 'what did I get into?'.
I got there after 11pm and the office was closed and I could not get into my suite. I called their emergency line and was told that they did not charge for the suite, therefore I should get my money back.
It looked run down.
The woman at the office was great.
They had just started renting for less than 1 week. They must have forgotten to stock kitchen items like glasses, cups, etc. Funny, since it was a kitchenette.
Very nice, well manicured, great views.
Bed was comfortable and huge.
Breakfast was delightful.
Daughter loved the pool
Gym is a asset to the place.
Water pressure could be better out of the shower, stopper in the tub was broke.
Part time position for someone to help with bags.
We have stayed here once before and really enjoy the convenience of the location and its amenities. Rooms are nice and breakfast is acceptable.
I was visiting fir my 40th birthday. Everyone went above and beyond making me feel like I was their guest of honor this past weekend. The birthday card was so wonderful and thoughtful. I definitely have plans to stay again and can't help but tell everyone how wonderful of a place it is there.
This is hotel was just ok IMO. Needs some serious upgrading and updating. Most Holiday INN Exp's are far nicer than this one.
When I pulled up to the hotel there were 4-5 men outside hanging out the balcony by their rooms. I was immediately in fear for my safety. I checked out immediately. I travel as a single female and my safety is paramount.
Location was close to where I needed to be. The receptionist was pleasant upon my arrival. Bed was comfortable and everything in the room appeared to be clean.
The television would not turn on. I don't watch too much TV, but tried that night to no avail. The toilet was running constantly from when I arrived and partially flooded the bathroom in the middle of the night.

We received our well-packed bar set on schedule. The straight-forward assembly went without a hitch, though the provided tool was a bit inadequate so we used our own. The set is attractive, comfortable, and very sturdy, which is perfect for our hillside deck which can be very windy here in NH. It took us a while to decide to purchase this set but it was DEFINITELY the right decision. Thank you, Polywood Furniture, for your excellent customer service, too!

Nice beds and towels
Parking and road to hotel
Room was big and enough for company
The staff was exceptionally friendly.
There were some people at breakfast in the restaurant that had come from the pool without shirts on.
The hotel bathroom was filthy and mold was growing everywhere. The indoor pool was right outside the door to the room, and the humidity level from the pool was high. Kids playing in the pool until late. Not a good choice for a hotel, even at this price

36 States, Cities, School Districts Join Better Buildings Challenge
Thirty-six new states, local governments and school districts have committed about 300 million square feet in building energy upgrades to President Obama's Better Buildings Challenge, intended to make US buildings 20 percent more efficient by 2020.
Partners announced yesterday include Massachusetts, Maryland, Delaware, North Carolina, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Santa Fe, Omaha, Rochester, Fort Worth, El Paso, Roanoke and Knoxville.
These commitments bring the total number of public and private sector partners to more than 100, and add $300 million in estimated investments to the almost $4 billion in public and private sector financial commitments the White House announced in December 2011. The map above shows the location of state and municipal partners.
Additionally, the White House said that new public tax guidance issued by the Treasury will make it easier for state and local governments to access more than $2 billion in existing low-cost financing to fund energy efficiency and renewable energy projects through Qualified Energy Conservation Bonds.
Other partner cities include Columbia, Missouri; Medford, Massachusetts; North Smithfield, Rhode Island; Huntington, New York; Toledo, Ohio with the Toledo Port Authority; West Palm Beach, Florida, and Worcester, Massachusetts.
Other community and school district partners include Hall County, Georgia; Kitsap County, Washington; Thurston County, Washington; New Castle County, Delaware; Placer County, California; Sonoma County, California; Will County, Illinois; Arvada, Colorado; Beaverton, Oregon; East Hartford, Connecticut; Camas County, Washington School District; District of Columbia Public Schools; Dysart, Arizona Public Schools; Fort Atkinson School District, Jefferson County, Wisconsin; Mesa County Schools, Colorado; and Portland, Oregon Public Schools.
The challenge is part of the Better Buildings Initiative President Obama launched in 2011 to create jobs and encourage private-sector investment in commercial and industrial building energy upgrades.
Earlier this month, Starbucks, Staples and The J.R. Simplot Company joined the challenge, pledging to upgrade more than 50 million square feet of combined commercial building space.
In late May, Pacific Gas and Electric signed on as a utility partner, and committed to providing expanded energy-efficiency programs for its commercial customers, responsible for 30 million square feet of commercial building space.

Just in case you missed it, the new style NADJ Newsletter has been given a revamp and a new name. We've called it CUE and we hope that those DJs on our newsletter subscription list are enjoying the content in the regular round-up of what's happening at the National Association of Disc Jockeys and industry news.
The CUE news team love to receive letters that represent your ideas, thoughts, views and opinions as a member of the largest DJ Association in the UK. If you would like to share with us what you've got on your mind, we would love to hear from you about your news, advice or your personal experience of the NADJ by e-mailing us at:
For the star letter we will reward you with a small thank you gift, so please do jump on that keyboard and let us know your thoughts.
The CUE News Team!
Congratulations to Pete Hawkins of DJ At My Party. Pete hails from and attends our NADJ South Central branch meeting catchment area and he was chosen by Mark Walsh (BPM) and Eddie Short (Pro Mobile magazine) for being the overall best candidate and winner of the 2016 Scholaship Programme.
It is always a pleasure to see members get excited at the prospects of learning and gaining knowledge that will enhance their business and performance. As part of the prize fund, Pete will be at the Pro Mobile Conference in February 2016 and if you want to know more about what he did to be a scholarship winner why not catch up with him there?
When asked what he felt when the winner was announced Pete said: "I thought that as I was already established as a long-standing DJ with a successful business, I may not be eligible, but it really is open to any NADJ Full Member - I was delighted."
The team here at the National Association of Disc Jockeys (NADJ) would like to wish all of our members and DJs across the planet a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! As this is the festive period, the team of volunteers at the NADJ are busy with the workload that December brings, we are also asking our members to allow us some family time over the Christmas and New Year period.
While no firm dates have been set for our festive break from our duties, such as dealing with enquiries/questions from members and non-members, we will be taking some time off and we hope that you will understand if responses to e-mails take a little longer than normal. We encourage all members to make sure that their membership subscriptions and PAT test documents are up to date in advance of the public holidays.
We have a system in place that sends out several e-mail reminders about membership subscriptions and the expiry dates of the annual PAT test documents that are conditions of membership. We hope that you are busy with your DJ business and we also hope that you will deal with any business matters in a timely and prompt fashion.
The Committee of the NADJ would like to wish everyone all the very best for 2016!

We just returned from our first visit to the Moro Campground in Crystal Cove State Park. If you book online at reserveamerica.com be sure you reserve at the correct campground! We heard about families who showed up at this location on the coast but had reservations for the remote inland tent sites that are only reached by a 3 1/2 mile hike.
Also note that this campground is a couple of miles away from the Historic District with the cottages and the Beachcomber Restaurant. Not the same place, I have a feeling people who aren't familiar with the area occasionally get confused.
This campground really suited us! Nice views from every site, water and electric hookups on the upper rows. It's a good 1/4 mile down to the day use parking where you'll find a tunnel under PCH that leads to the beach, and.... it's a good 1/4 mile back up that steep hill. But we didn't mind at all. Hiking and biking trails in the hills on the inland side of Pacific Coast Highway, and miles of beautiful beaches to explore. The camp hosts during our stay were friendly and helpful.
We plan to stay here again in our motorhome, it's an hour from home so a very easy place to take a break for a few days.

Bias-Free Communication
Guidelines for Communicating in a Diverse Community
Bias typically involves a leaning or predisposition on an issue that may inhibit being neutral when communicating with others. When bias exists in attitudes, it is often reflected in the language and the way in which individuals interact with each other. Language can have a significant impact on the quality of our interactions. Many times, we do not intend to exclude or offend others by the words we choose. We may simply lack information about, and sensitivity to, certain words or phrases. Being aware and mindful of our language, both written and oral, can help create a supportive and inclusive climate.
The content below provides suggestions for eliminating bias from our communication as one means of creating a more inclusive environment and modeling the attitudes about diversity which the University values. While some basic suggestions are offered below, the key to effective bias-free communication is treating all people with respect and consideration regardless of characteristics such as age, gender, gender identity, race, color, religion, national origin, height, weight, familial status, marital status, sexual orientation, disability, or political preference.
General guidelines for bias-free communication include:
- Pay special attention not to limit or imply limitations for anyone to participate in any activity, occupation or area of study, e.g. "his disability will preclude him from doing this job," "women shouldn't play certain sports."
- Speak of all members of the University community--students, faculty and staff--in relationship to the issues at hand and the abilities of those involved.
- Assign tasks on the basis of ability rather than gender, race, disability, or other irrelevant stereotypical characteristics, e.g. "we need a man to lift this computer."
- Diversity in leadership and presenters is important in demonstrating bias-free communication.
- Every reasonable effort should be made to assure that meeting places are barrier-free and can accommodate persons with disabilities.
- Every person at a meeting or gathering should be given opportunities to participate.
- "In-group" references and comments, while they may enhance the workplace for the in-group, may create an unwelcoming or hostile working or educational environment for non-members.
- Lesbian-bisexual-gay-transgender (LBGT) persons are likely to be present at every meeting or event and in every racial and ethnic group. Be sure to avoid language that stereotypes or patronizes LBGT persons.
- Avoid stereotyping or patronizing racial or ethnic groups, LBGT persons, or persons with disabilities in news stories, anecdotes or hiring practices.
There are other, more characteristic-specific guidelines for bias-free communication that can increase awareness of, and confidence in, our use of inclusive language. These guidelines change from time-to-time, and individuals or groups most often affected by bias suggest such changes. While these guidelines are common recommendations, they may not be the preference of every individual. The overall goal is to be sensitive and try to communicate in a way that everyone can feel included.
Race and Ethnicity
- Avoid qualifiers that imply that all members of specific ethnic groups or races are the same, e.g., suggesting that all persons of a certain ethnicity are good at athletics or math.
- If you specify race or ethnic origin, be certain it is relevant.
- Avoid language that has questionable racial or ethnic connotations, e.g., "you people," or "those foreigners."
Gender and Gender Identity
- Use gender-neutral words/phrases in your language, e.g. journalist, fire fighter, chairperson. Avoid the use of "man" or "woman" in job titles.
- Address both female and male perspectives with phrases like "employees and their spouses or partners." Use pronouns and references that include both genders instead of only male, e.g. "he/she" or "women/men."
- Avoid describing men by profession and women by physical attributes.
- Use "gender" rather than "sex" to differentiate between men and women.
Ability Status
- Use "person first" language, e.g., "person with a disability," "student with a disability."
- Avoid using the term "disability" as an adjective, e.g. the disability community.
- Avoid using adjectives as nouns, e.g. "the deaf, the blind, the disabled." Rather, use "people who are deaf."
- Plan for and provide alternate forms of communications at events and gathering. This might include having interpreters, providing written materials in print format or in Braille, or providing oral interpretation for all visual information.
Sexual Orientation
- Use "sexual orientation" rather than phrases like "the gay lifestyle" or "sexual preference."
- Use the phrase "partner or spouse".
- When discussing families, be inclusive of families that are headed by same gender partners or lesbian, bisexual, gay, or transgender single parents and recognize the presence of LBGT youth in families.
- When using the terms "diversity" or "multicultural," and reference is made to specific groups, include lesbian-bi-gay-transgender persons in such statements.
- Mention age only when it is relevant.
- Permit people of all ages to speak for themselves rather than assuming you know what they want.
- Avoid making inappropriate assumptions about people based on their age.
Ending bias takes awareness, openness and practice. Many biased statements seem so natural and familiar that we are unaware of the discomfort they cause for others. Become conscious of your communication and what it may imply. For more information, please seek assistance by contacting the following offices:
