Loan volumes are likely to pick up later in 2013, especially for acquisitions. But attractive rates on bonds and local currency deals continue to draw borrowers
By Karen SchwartzWhen Brazil's Cosan sought
funding for its 3.4 billion real purchase of a 60.1% stake in
Brazilian gas distributor Comgas last May, the loan market was
the way to go. The sugar producer and energy distributor took
out a 3.3 billion real, eight-year loan from Bradesco and
Itaú to fund the purchase, with BTG Pactual later buying
part of the deal. Now, Ba2 rated Cosan is looking to refinance
the debt, as demand for Brazilian credit continues and the
company's options for financing expand, says CFO
Marcelo Martins. As market conditions have improved and the
average cost of transactions like this one have come down, it
has a number of choices. These include selling real denominated
bonds locally or internationally. Loans, in part because of
their pricing compared with bonds, have taken a backseat for
LatAm borrowers. Companies are turning increasingly to bonds
for medium-term funding. Attractive rates...

The Dark Knight Rises combo (blu ray): a Best Buy at $22.99!!! Buy now before the Price Rises!,
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Dark Knight Rises / L'Ascension du chevalier noir (Bilingual) [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
The Dark Knight Rises arrives at blu ray with MPEG-4 AVC 1080p 2.40 and 1.78 (Imax sequence). A few words about its predecessor The Dark Knight: Although its transfer earned top marks, however, contrast was raised to detail-quashing extremes, colour boosted, and severe edge halos littered the image. Thankfully, the transfer of the Dark Knight Rises did not suffer the same fate. Cinematographer Wally Pfister's wind-swept Gotham palette is rich, satisfying and gorgeous. Warm hues adorn the decadent homes of the city's elite, dusty desert colours blanket Bruce's stint in prison, and crisp white snow falls on a captive Gotham. Colours are positively radiant at times. Black levels are deep and inky. Detail is nothing short of extraordinary. Edges are sharp and natural and fine textures are well resolved and revealing (particularly during the film's IMAX sequences). (5/5)
The real showpiece of The Dark Knight Rises is its sternum-splitting, rib-cracking, ground-pounding DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround track. While it obviously isn't as thunderous or jaw-dropping as its IMAX counterpart, it still boasts remarkable power, prowess and presence. The opening hijack scene is worth the cost of admission alone. Hans Zimmer's score is simply enveloping and invigorating. Dialogue is clear. It is a great soundtrack to enhance the video. (5/5)
Christopher Nolan and his creative inner circle -- co-writer David S. Goyer, co-writer Jonathan Nolan, producing partner Emma Thomas, cinematographer Wally Pfister, composer Hans Zimmer, and many more -- finally concludes their Batman saga. A journey begun nearly a decade ago, Batman Begins marked a new, dare we say, serious era of the super hero film. Grounded and ultra-real. The Dark Knight followed as a high concept crime drama. The Dark Knight Rises picks up some eight years after the previous film. Suffering from all his crime-fighting injuries, Bruce Wayne became a recluse, locked away in the east wing of his rebuilt manor. When a new terrorist -- the monstrous Bane, who has ties to the League of Shadows -- threatens Gotham City, Wayne, despite his wanted murderer status, will don his cape and cowl once more. This film really showed the human element and vulnerability of Bruce Wayne, being beaten soundly by the monstrous Bane. In the end, The Dark Knight Rises is a fun, larger-than-life movie and, in many ways, a fitting end to Mr. Nolan's trilogy. (movie: 4.5/5)
It has an estimated budget of $250 million, but earned $1,078 million worldwide. It is currently sitting at 7th place in the Worldwide Box Office Chart, behind Avatar, Titanic, The Avengers, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows Part 2, Transformers: Dark of the Moon and Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. This is quite an achievement.
This combo contains 2 blu ray (BD-50) discs: one for the Feature Film and the other Special Features. There is also a standard DVD, plus instructions to get the Dark Knight Rises FX App to sync with the blu ray disc and to unlock exclusive content!
When The Dark Knight Rises was first announced, the price was $27.99. Later, the price moved up to $34.99, but thankfully, as the release date drew nearer, the price miraculously dropped to $26.99, and finally $22.97!!!! A definite best-buy!
The Dark Knight Rises is an exciting, epic movie and, for the most part, a fitting end to the Nolan Batman era. In the past, I bought the Gift set of the Dark Knight mainly because of the toy: the two fat wheeled Bat-cycle. The Gift set for the Dark Knight Rises is not as appealing. I also do not recommend the Dark Knight Trilogy Limited Edition set because it contained only the three bare-bone movies. I am sure The Dark Knight Trilogy: Ultimate Collector's Edition will be released next year. But for this blu ray combo, with The Price of only $22.97 is definitely Right, and order the Dark Knight Rises now before the Price Rises after releases. Of course, the Dark Knight Rises is highly recommended.
I hope the above review is helpful to you.

Released: Dec 09th, 2010
Running Time: 90 Min.
Director: Uncredited
Company: Homegrown Video
Distribution Companies: Pure Play Media
DVD Extras: Outtakes, Trailer(s)
Cast: Alexander Boomba, Kimberlee Brooks, Drea, Desert Diva, Others
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Amateur, MILF
These older women aren't ready for the rocking chair and a set of knitting needles quite yet. What they need is hot, sweaty sex, and lots of it. They put their many years of experience to good use, which is what makes this horny title extra hot. These hot MILFs and housewives put the young, clueless porn star to shame.
A trio of MILFs appear in a like number of scenes, beginning with Drea, an attractive blonde whose natural curiosity about her neighbor's adult video hobby leads to making a POV version with this happy guy. It is so much fun that she goes beyond her initial intentions of just doing a solo, b.j. and straight fucking, and indulges in an anal detour as well. Next, Desert Diva gets in a quickie, with part of her scene showing off her hanging tits as she slurps away.
The final segment is with Kimberlee Brooks, a very busty blonde whom Alexander Boomba brings over to capture in action, thanks to his trusty video camera on a tripod, as she quickly gets naked and starts sucking away on this lucky stiff—an action he returns prior to some back door pounding. The final facial is only partially seen, due to the stationary position of the camera. But he does go on to get her off using rear deep finger penetration.

I know the default Java heap memory is 128 MB. Since it is the default, I want to know whether this memory get automatically changed according to the RAM size. For an example, for a machine with 128 MB RAM, heap memory 128 is too much and it should be automatically changed. Because if an application use all of 128 heap, PC will end up in a trouble.
please help.

Released: Jan 01st, 2007
Running Time: 116
Director: Brother Love
Company: New Sensations
Cast: Manuel Ferrara, Chris Charming, Mr. Pete, Mario Rossi, Kala Prettyman, Veronica Rayne, Rossana, Alex Rox, Andrea Jaxxx, Cheyenne Hunter
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Specialty
Specialty Type: Mature
Older women into younger men is the theme, and Kala Prettyman, a self-proclaimed soccer mom, is super as a sex-starved (not too) older woman who demands cock from Alex Rox. This very verbal woman epitomizes when hubby is away actions and really gives him a workout.
The others likewise do a fine job in what ends up to be conventional couples sex without the need to get too outrageous or even attempt anal.
Retailing: Pretty good MILF action in the form of sex with couples.

COLLEGE STATION (May 10, 2013)—Runoff from heavy rain flooded a portion of the College Station City Hall after a clogged drain allowed water to accumulate in an outdoor atrium and then pour into hallways and offices, including those of the city manager and mayor.
Staff members responded by sweeping the water out with brooms and putting desks on bricks late Thursday afternoon.
The water rose to about 18 inches in the atrium.
Mayor Nancy Berry said the council was meeting in executive session when water started seeping under the door.
"We went out and looked and the water was all over," she said.
City spokesman Jay Socol says an emergency restoration firm has started cleanup work, which is expected to continue throughout the weekend.

I was about to buy a copy of GTA IV on Steam during the sale they've got going. With credit card in hand, I found out in some reviews that the PC version requires Games for Windows Live for saving and installs SecuROM. Dealbreaker right there and I never purchased.
Fallout 3 (GOTY) from the Steam sale was the same for me , despite the fact that I didnt want to play it online it still wanted me to use GFWL(only found this out after I bought it )
Indeed, it's from The IT Crowd.
Graham Linehan* actually.
Morris was involved in the IT crowd, but purely as an actor.
(*Being a nice bloke he he told me it [via his a comments section on his website] was ok to download a few episodes of the IT crowd I'd missed , as long as , if I liked them , I bought the DVD when it came out
I blew that thing so much trying to get it to work (often failing), I feel like a cheap whore now just thinking about it.
That was the only game system that failed on me.
To be honest the Atari VCS is a better example
The week was most likely for forensics. Once you've worked out somebody's in, there's not exactly the equivalent of a trail of breadcrumbs to tell where they've been. I don't envy their management, they get to work out which is worst: a) the hackers don't know they got somewhere sensitive, and you tell the world 'possibly' these details went missing, then when it's all back up the hackers try harder because they know where to look b) leave everybody hanging and worrying, but know for sure, be able to make a full announcement and deploy countermeasures.
I think they did the right thing in shutting off all access, but not giving a 'we are investigating the extent of....' was not so great. Ah well, just hope there isn't a next time.
My gut feeling is that the week was for legal dissection of "how the hell are we not going to get the pants sued off us over this" and working out the best PR spin, more than any technical or security work. But maybe I'm just a cynic...
Yea, its always been that way. Except back in the 80's it was Japan getting the preference. We in the US would often wait years for games to make it here. I cant really have much sympathy for days...
at least you got releases , a lot of stuff never saw a European(and more specifically a UK/IRL release...)
The only catch I can see is how Lucas thinks buying rights to their movies gets him the rights to the actors, as usually that is controlled by an estate. But greed has no shame boys and girls, so don't be surprised to see Slim Pickens riding on a Predator drone for an air show advert or even Lucas recasting his old stars in horrible new movies. Just look at hoe he used makeup and another actor to bring Cushing back for the end of Episode III.
Pointless trivia: That actor was the same guy who played Scorpius in Farscape(Wayne Pygram). http://farscape.wikia.com/wiki/Wayne_Pygram
It seems like FPS are still alive and well, even if it isn't the same IP from the 90s. There are some genres from the 90s that completely died off.
What happened to the space flight simulators of the 90s? Lucasarts can't make a better X-Wing with modern technology nowadays? The last great space flight sim was Freelancer or HomeWorld and that was 10 years ago. That genre completely disappeared.
X wing? nah Lucasarts are all about "teh consolezz" now , so it'd be a dumbed down shooter played by angry , sweary 12 year olds. Imagine being tebagged by a TIE fighter over and over and called a fagtard repeatedly by someone who'se voice hasnt broken yet. FPS remakes? Blood needs a proper dusting off again I think.
For me in the UK I would prob say this happened around the year 2000 if not before. So this prob means litres, kilograms, meters and ISO paper is just around the corner for the USA soon then
That's about right, the US seems to be about 10 years behind Europe and Asia when it comes to mobile/cell phones. Hope you guys enjoy proper 3g video calls* in about 2015 (you'll use use it about twice and then go back to voice calls) {*I was amazed that facetime one the Jesusphone 4 was being sold as a new idea.I laughed even harder when I found out that it only runs over wifi!}
Quantity is no substitute for quality, but its the only one we've got.

NZ becomes first country in Asia-Pacific region to approve gay marriage
New Zealand legalises same-sex marriage, becoming the first country in the Asia-Pacific region and the 13th country to do so. The bill was passed with a wide majority, with 77 votes in favour and 44 against. "In our society, the meaning of marriage is universal - it's a declaration of love and commitment to a special person," said Labour MP Louisa Wall. The declaration of the vote was followed by a waiata.

LITHONIA, Ga. (AP) - DeKalb County police are investigating an accident involving a school bus carrying four high school students.
Police spokeswoman Mekka Parish says two students and two adults were transported to the hospital after the Monday afternoon wreck in Lithonia. She said the students had minor injuries. She did not know their ages.
The bus driver was taken to the hospital after complaining of chest pains. The driver of the car was taken to the hospital with a leg injury. They were not identified.
Parish said it appears the driver of the car lost control, but she did not know any other details of the accident.

Rag & Bone jeans
Denim Review: Rag & Bone Zip Leggings in Shoreditch
My review this week will be on the Rag & Bone Zip Leggings in Shoreditch. I have been looking for a pair of inseam zip jeans for who knows how long. So when I heard these were a style that they were coming out with, I instantly got excited. Click inside to read my review.

Weekend Going Out Look: Rag & Bone Mila Shorts
We've been having some unseasonably warm weather on the East Coast and it has me in the mood for Spring! Keeping the warmer weather in mind and the fact I wanted to do something different for my Weekend Going Out look, I chose these Rag & Bone Mila shorts in gray to style. I really like the gray wash and slight distressing.
However, since it is still January and to keep them weather appropriate, I layered them over a pair of Miss Selfridge black opaque tights. For a top, I chose this leather Chicnova tee shirt because I like that the shape is more casual and the leather gives it a dressier feel, perfect for going out. For the accessories, I wanted a black boot that would look good paired with the tights and I liked the subtle studs on these Giuseppe Zanotti booties. To add some color, I chose this Clare Vivier green clutch, this colorful Iosselliani necklace, and a bold orange ring from Kenneth Jay Lane. I think this look could work equally as well once the weather warms up by skipping the tights and swapping the booties for a pair of sandals or heels.
New Jodhpurs by Rag & Bone
The Jodhpur Skinny by Rag & Bone has become a staple style for them. They have been reinvented in numerous ways before, but Rag & Bone thought of yet another new idea for these jeans.
For the new season, the colors chosen have a graphic contrast to help give the skinny legs that every girl wants. Now for the new detail that makes these different to the others, keeping with the mini trend this season, the leather panels have been perforated. The addition of the perforation, I find, makes them scream, "Spring is here!" (even though it is not) because it gives this lightness to them. What are your thoughts on the new detail? You can click here to purchase them at Shopbop.

I deal in many websites a lot and I have several computers. I always get frustrated when using FTP clients on windows or ubuntu because I need to type in the access details to the 30-40+ FTP accounts that I use.
Can anyone recommend a good FTP client that actually handles this situation well - the ideal situation is that they store the credentials somewhere online and I would have an account that allows me to download and use them immediately.
Free/Paid options are fine. Right now i'm using Filezilla, Notepad++ and Netbeans, and I haven't been able to find anything near the functionality that I need.
It's also hard to search for because if you search for the title of this question you get alot of people trying to FTP into cloud storage.

It is hard to hear of the death of a family member, friend or acquaintance. You realize it is important to send your sympathy to the family, especially the widow. If you have little experience with this, you'll need to know how to address the sympathy card when mailing one to the widow. It is important to acknowledge her correctly and observe proper etiquette. A widow is trying to deal with deep grief and accept the fact that her husband is truly gone. She is still very much his wife and will want to be addressed as such.
Things You'll Need
- Purchased or handmade sympathy card
- Correct address of the widow
Address the envelope to "Mrs. John Smith" or "Ms. Sarah Smith." Sarah is the widow of John, so when using Mrs. you will use the deceased husband's name.
Address the envelope for a newly widowed doctor as Dr. Sarah Smith.
Address the envelope to a newly widowed woman who is a minister as Reverend Sarah or Pastor Sarah Smith.
Write a personal note inside of the card to a newly widowed woman that you are an acquaintance of by addressing her as Mrs., Dr. or Reverend Smith.
Write a personal note to a family member or friend and address her as you normally would, Aunt Sarah or Sarah. The outer envelope still must read Mrs. John or Ms. Sarah Smith.
Tips & Warnings
- Do not use the widow's maiden name unless she has used that as her name after getting married.

I currently have a HKPSG1 and I want a heavy machine gun cos they have tons of ammo. I may save for a M249 maybe.
But answer first.
HK or RPD
Under no circumstances should anyone buy the HK, ever.
Originally posted by ZaogaRapid:I currently have a HKPSG1 and I want a heavy machine gun cos they have tons of ammo. I may save for a M249 maybe.

m60. 8)
Zeus don't mislead the the guy he asked a question. RPD and AUG are better than HK due to value and ammo, but seeing as you already spent the cash on HK I'd forget about getting RPD and SAW. The sales will be your best friends. If you'd please give me your coins cash and stats, I'll be more than happy to point you in a good direction.
i think hmg's are overrated (excluding the gatling gun) because of horrible acc, id say steyr aug is comparable or even better than saw if you keep your distance
and the m60 is even worse than rpd since you dont need those few extra bullets
better not get the rpd unless you really want a hmg and dont have the patience to skip to saw/gatling gun
My coins now: 3k
Cash: 6
Skills: 5 Strength,Accuracy,Health.4 Defense.
Level: 19
Plans: Sell HKPSG for RPD/SAW
Help needed: Should I get AUG,RPD,or SAW?
This is the most mind boggling ever.
SAW is way expensive,I am getting it next year.
I don't want to waste time so
SAW is cancelled.Now one last thing:
Ok I decided aug.
I will just stick with aug until I get a good level.
Around level 30-40 is ok?
Thats my alt^
AUG will NOT last that long, I suggest you put effort into getting coins and cash.
get assassin
Both of dose weps in da title suk, get m60 8)
Only get an HK when your like level 1. And M60 in no better then RPD because of its weaker damage. in this game, no one cares about ammo, people want damage.

Microwave Spectrum, Structure, Boron Quadrupole Coupling Constants, and Dipole Moment of Difluoroborane48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1664452View Description Hide Description
The microwave spectra of H10BF2, H11BF2, D10BF2, and D11BF2 have been assigned. Rotational constants are 74 494.82, 10 496.74, and 9181.67 Mc/sec for H11BF2 77 244.25, 10 495.35, and 9221.49 Mc/sec for H10BF2 52 896.09, 10 498.29, and 8740.46 Mc/sec for D11BF2 and 54 081.82, 10 496.89, and 8771.57 Mc/sec for D10BF2. The structural parameters obtained from these constants and their estimated uncertainties are , , and . The quadrupole coupling constants have been obtained. The dipole moment is 0.971 ± 0.010 D.
Electron Spin Resonance Spectra of Gamma‐Ray‐Irradiated Phosphate Glasses and Compounds: Oxygen Vacancies48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1667952View Description Hide Description
The electron spin resonance spectra of γ‐ray‐irradiated glassy and polycrystalline phosphorus pentoxide and alkali phosphates with molar ratios of phosphorus pentoxide to alkali oxide ranging from 3.33 to 0.625 have been observed at 10 and 35 Gcps and at 300° and 78°K. Well‐resolved hyperfine doublets were observed in each glass or polycrystallinepowder. Additional resonances were also present in all the specimens but these are not discussed. The widths and shapes of the doublets were independent of temperature and only small alterations in the shapes of each component of a doublet were found as a function of frequency. One set of doublets has been discussed elsewhere and is not considered. Those doublets which are discussed are attributed to an electron trapped at a nonbridging oxygen vacancy. Interaction of the electron with the nearest‐neighbor 31P nucleus (100% natural abundance, ) produces the doublet structure. These doublets exhibited isotropic hyperfine interactions ranging from 1880 to 4490 Mcps. The smaller interactions, 1880‐2196 Mcps, were found in glasses and polycrystallinepowders with molar ratios ≤ 1 and the larger interactions, 2630‐4490 Mcps, were found in those with molar ratios > 1. The anisotropichyperfine interaction, , of all the doublets was ≤ 540 Mcps. The defect electron state is assumed to be the nonbonding phosphorus sp hybrid orbital. On the basis of this assumption, the different isotropic hyperfine interactions are attributed to different geometric configurations of the phosphorus ion and the oxygens to which it is bonded. The assumed sp hybridization accounts for most of the electron density. An approximate g value is calculated for the doublets and is found to range from 2.005 to 2.040.
Vibration→Vibration and Vibration→Translation Energy Transfer in Methane‐Oxygen Mixtures48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1664460View Description Hide Description
A laser‐excited infrared fluorescence technique has been used to study vibration‐to‐vibration energy transfer from O2 to CH4 and to study vibration‐to‐translation relaxation in O2–CH4 mixtures. It is found that 440 ± 40 O2–CH4 collisions are necessary to transfer one quantum of vibrational excitation from O2 to CH4. Measurements of vibrational relaxation in NO–CH4 systems are also given.
Mass‐Spectrometric Investigation of the Primary Processes in the Photodissociation of 1,3‐Butadiene48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1667897View Description Hide Description
The primary processes in the 1,3‐butadiene photodissociation are investigated by direct detection of the fragments in a mass spectrometer at pressures of 10−4 mm Hg in the reaction chamber. With the special technique used here, collisions do not occur during the time between photon impact and primary‐product detection. The resulting products of illumination with a light continuum between 2200 and 1800 Å, which is produced by a pulsed high‐pressure argon flash lamp, are as follows: C3H3 + CH3; C4H5 + H; C2H4 + C2H2; C2H3 + C2H3; and to a small amount, also C4H4 + H2. The quantitative probabilities for these five dissociation modes are derived from the measured ion spectrum of the neutral photodissociation fragments that is produced in the ion chamber of the mass spectrometer by electron impact. Some results concerning the original excited state and fragment energies are discussed.
Chemistry of Detonations. I. A Simple Method for Calculating Detonation Properties of C–H–N–O Explosives48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1667908View Description Hide Description
Detonation pressures of C–H–N–O explosives at initial densities above 1.0 g/cc may be calculated by means of the simple empirical equation , , , detonation velocities by the equation . is the number of moles of gaseous detonation products per gram of explosive, is the average weight of these gases, is the chemical energy of the detonation reaction, and is the initial density. Values of , , and may be estimated from the H2O–CO2 arbitrary decomposition assumption, so that the calculations require no other imput information than the explosive's elemental composition, heat of formation, and loading density. Detonation pressures derived in this manner correspond quite closely to values predicted by a computer code known as RUBY, which employs the most recent parameters and covolume factors with the Kistiakowsky‐Wilson equation of state.
Chemistry of Detonations. II. Buffered Equilibria48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1667930View Description Hide Description
At low loading densities, values of , , and calculated from the H2O–CO2 "arbitrary" show poor individual agreement with estimates of these quantities from the RUBYcomputer code. Nevertheless, when substituted into the equation they lead to detonation pressures which correspond closely to RUBY predictions. That incorrect input information should yield results which are very nearly "correct" is rationalized on the basis that the equilibria whose shifting engenders the changes in , , and are "buffered" in the sense that "errors" in are offset by compensating "errors" in and . As a consequence of the fact that most of the important equilibria in the detonation of C–H–N–O explosives are buffered, calculated (and actual) mechanical properties of detonations appear to be extremely insensitive to exact product compositions. A number of other interesting consequences of these buffered equilibria are discussed.
Chemistry of Detonations. III. Evaluation of the Simplified Calculational Method for Chapman‐Jouguet Detonation Pressures on the Basis of Available Experimental Information48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1667939View Description Hide Description
It is shown that the simplified calculational scheme discussed in Parts I and II of this series accomodates the total body of inexact and often self‐contradictory experimental information almost as well as might reasonably be expected of any computational method. Some possibly systematic discrepancies in the reported experimental C‐J pressures are discussed on the basis of methods used to carry out and interpret the measurements in the various laboratories.
Percus‐Yevick Equation Applied to a Lennard‐Jones Fluid48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1667953View Description Hide Description
An efficient method of solving the Percus‐Yevick and related equations is described. The method is applied to a Lennard‐Jones fluid, and the solutions obtained are discussed. It is shown that the Percus‐Yevick equation predicts a phase change with critical density close to 0.27 and with a critical temperature which is dependent upon the range at which the Lennard‐Jones potential is truncated. At the phase change the compressibility becomes infinite although the virial equation of state does not show this behavior. Outside the critical region the PY equation is at least two‐valued for all densities in the range (0, 0.6).
Generalized Equation of Motion for a Gas Using the Quantum‐Mechanical Green's Function Technique. I48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1667990View Description Hide Description
The quantum‐mechanical Green's function technique of Kadanoff and Baym is extended to include non‐Markowian effects in order to make contact with the results of Prigogine.
Applications of the Quantum‐Mechanical Green's Functions to the Study of Chemical Reactions. II48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1667991View Description Hide Description
Starting from a field theoretical representation of chemical reactions, the rate equation is developed in terms of the quantum mechanical Green's functions. The equation is valid for non‐Markowian behavior and the approximations that are necessary in order to obtain the conventional (Markowian) rate equation are investigated. The effect of finite collision times is also discussed.
Accurate Perturbation‐Variation Treatment of the Hydrogen Molecule48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1667992View Description Hide Description
A Rayleigh‐Schrödinger perturbation treatment of electron repulsion in the ground state of the hydrogen molecule is presented. The perturbation energies were accurately determined from Hylleraas‐type variational principles using a 50‐term basis. The perturbation series appears to converge rapidly at the equilibrium distance, in a similar fashion to the series for the united atom, helium, obtained by Scherr and Knight (1963). The electronic energy through fifth order is − 1.88872 hartree, which is comparable with the straight variational result of − 1.88876 obtained by Kolos and Wolniewicz (1964).
Magnetic and Crystallographic Characteristics of Praseodymium Hydrides48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1667993View Description Hide Description
The susceptibilities (χ) and lattice parameters are reported for a series of praseodymium hydrides represented by the formula PrH x in which x varies from 0.99 to 2.57. χ was measured from 4° to 300° and at field strengths up to 21 kOe. The samples are two‐phase for Curie–Weiss behavior is observed for all samples above 100°K with slopes in fairly good agreement with that expected for an assemblage of free tripositive ions. Deviations occur below 100°K. These are two kinds—negative for and positive for The deviations in the first case are small and appear to result from the crystal‐field interaction. The positive deviations are ascribed to a change of valence for Pr from 3 + to 4 +. Magnetic, electrical, and crystallographic evidence is in accord with this postulate. There is no indication of magnetic ordering in the hydrides at 4.2°K.
Yield of Solvated Electrons in the γ Radiolysis of Water + 10% Ethanol: Nonhomogeneous Kinetics of Electron Scavenging in Water48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1667994View Description Hide Description
The effect of nitrous oxide concentration over a very wide range, and at low dose, on the radiolysis of the system water + 10% ethanol has been investigated. At very high concentrations compared to approximately 2.7 between 10−4 and 10−2 Mnitrous oxide. The results are discussed in terms of a nonhomogeneous kinetics model for the scavenging of solvated electrons, with . The free ion yield is . These values apply to both the present system and to pure water. The wide variation in previously reported values of is understandable in terms of the present model. The previously published model for charge scavenging in liquids [J. Chem. Phys. 46, 2822 (1967) ] has been moderately successful in describing charge scavenging in the γ radiolysis of hydrocarbons, alcohols, and water. This emphasizes the earlier suggestion that the behavior of extra electrons in nonpolar and polar liquids differs in degree but not in kind.
Simple Formulas for the Vibrational and Rotational Eigenvalues of the Lennard‐Jones 12‐6 Potential48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1667995View Description Hide Description
Dunham expressed the term values of a generalized rotating vibrator as a double power series in the vibrational and rotational quantum numbers. Eighteen coefficients in this series have been evaluated for the Lennard‐Jones (12‐6) potential. The accuracy of the resulting term‐value formula has been tested by direct numerical solution of the radial equation and was found to be very good. The addition of a few empirical corrections for states lying close to the dissociation limit provides an eigenvalue predictor which is accurate to better than a part per million in the most favorable cases and never worse than a part per thousand. The range covered is from systems with only a single bound state to ones with more than ten thousand, e.g., the iodine dimer. When used to provide trial eigenvalues for Cooley's procedure for solving the radial equation, the predictor successfully discriminates between states separated from each other and from the dissociation limit by less than one part in 105. Simple formulas have also been derived for the zero‐point energy, the number of pure vibrational states, and the total number of bound states. Finally, it is shown that even fourth‐order WKB terms can make significant contributions for very light systems and that there is no indication that Dunham's series for this potential model fails to converge even for term values lying arbitrarily close to the dissociation limit.
Heat Capacity of Deutero‐Ammonium Bromide from 17° to 300°K48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1664453View Description Hide Description
The heat capacity of deutero‐ammonium bromide has been measured from 17° to 300°K. The heat‐capacity curve is characterized by the appearance of two maxima. These are associated with polymorphic transitions in the crystal lattice and with the ordering of the ammonium ion tetrahedra with respect to the two equilibrium positions in the unit cell. The excess entropy associated with the maxima is found to be in agreement with the order‐disorder nature of the upper transition. A frequency of torsional oscillation for the ammonium ion in good agreement with infrared data is obtained from the Debye‐Einstein function representing the heat capacity below 100°K.
Studies of the Nitrogen Afterglow. I. Surface Catalytic Efficiency and Diffusion‐Controlled Decay of Atomic Nitrogen48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1664454View Description Hide Description
The temporal behavior of the afterglow light intensity in decaying nitrogen plasmas, as well as that of the number density of N+, N2 +, N3 +, and N4 + ions, was studied in the pressure range of about 0.1 to 1.7 torr. The analysis of the light intensity decay curves resulted in a method of measuring the surfacecatalytic efficiency for the recombination of nitrogen atoms at the plasma boundary. The simultaneous identification of the ions present in the plasma by means of a quadrupolemass spectrometer ensures that the data relate to pure nitrogen as well as to extremely clean surfaces. The values obtained for of molybdenum sputtered on a glass surface decreased with pressure from a value of 0.22 at 0.09 torr to 0.04 at 1.35 torr. The studies also showed that part of the afterglow light emission is due to collisions between metastable nitrogen molecules which are produced in the afterglow by the atomic volume recombination process.
Viscosity and Its Temperature Dependence in Molten BeF248(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1664455View Description Hide Description
The viscosity of molten beryllium fluoride has been measured with coaxial‐cylinder viscometers over five orders of magnitude (limits: 979°C, 28.6 P; 574°C, 2.24 × 106 P). Over the experimental range of shear stresses, BeF2 behaves as a Newtonian fluid. Like SiO2, its high‐temperature analog, BeF2 shows an Arrhenius temperature dependence over several orders of magnitude in viscosity. Reported heat‐capacity data for BeF2 and SiO2 and the Adam‐Gibbs theory indicate that the Arrhenius viscosity behavior of these liquids may be explained in terms of the configurational entropy which is virtually constant at temperatures above the glass‐transition temperature.
Calculation of the Effect of Non‐Brownian Motion on Some dc Transport Coefficients in Solution48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1664456View Description Hide Description
Effects of non‐Brownian motion on transport coefficients are found on the basis of a model in which the carrier undergoes random changes of state between two states of different mobility. The transport properties investigated are the electrical mobility, the Hall mobility, and the Onsager slope of the equivalent conductance. On the basis of these examples the relations among certain transport coefficients may be expected to be quite sensitive to the microscopic dynamics of the carrier.
Effect of Electric‐Field‐Gradient Inhomogeneity on Quadrupolar Satellite Intensities in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectra in Solids48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1664457View Description Hide Description
A simple model of random electric‐field‐gradient inhomogeneity has been incorporated into the usual first‐order treatment of quadrupolar satellites in nuclear magnetic resonance spectra in solids. Observed departures of experimental intensities from those expected strictly on the basis of transition probabilities are satisfactorily accounted for on the basis of this model.
Magnetic Circular Dichroism of Benzene, Triphenylene, and Coronene48(1968); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1664458View Description Hide Description
The magnetic circular dichroism of benzene, triphenylene, and coronene in regions of absorption (20 000‐45 000 cm−1) are reported. The data support the conventional molecular‐orbital assignments of the absorption spectra. The lowest and states of triphenylene and coronene, respectively, are shown to be little affected by Jahn‐Teller perturbations. Magnetic moments are obtained for these states which are in good agreement with values calculated from the free‐electron network model and from molecular‐orbital wavefunctions if Löwdin orthogonalized atomic basis functions are employed.

* Cyprus set to vote on controversial deposit levy
* Bunds rally, two-year German yields turn negative
* Periphery reaction muted but contagion risk remains
By Marius Zaharia and Ana Nicolaci da Costa
LONDON, March 19 Investors sought safety in low-risk German Bunds on Tuesday before a vote in the Cypriot parliament which was expected to reject a law needed to secure the island a vital bailout and avoid a default.
Cyprus's government came up with a proposal to spare small savers from a tax on bank deposits in a last-minute attempt to win parliamentary backing for the rescue, but said lawmakers still seemed likely to reject the levy.
A "no" vote would move Cyprus closer to default and a banking collapse while some analysts said a surprise approval might weigh on low-risk Bunds.
After focusing on Monday on the possible impact of the unprecedented bank levy, markets were fixated on Tuesday on the vote in Nicosia.
"There's no coherent obvious way out of the current mess. There are risks to every possible pathway coming out of the Cypriot problem," said Chris Scicluna, head of economic research at Daiwa Capital Markets.
"If the parliament approves the measures there will be relief. At least we're going somewhere. Not knowing where we're going is more unsettling than persevering with (the levy)."
Bund futures rose 71 ticks on the day to 144.65, with cash 10-year German yields falling 6 basis points to 1.346 percent. Two-year German yields turned negative for the first time since early January and last traded 2.4 bps lower on the day at minus 0.002 percent.
That meant market participants were willing to pay Germany to keep their cash for two years as they were more concerned about the safety of their investment than the return on it.
"Markets are waking up to the fact that this is all quite serious ... A classic risk-off panic scenario," one trader said.
The longer-term concern was that savers in other indebted euro zone countries might begin to feel threatened and move their money elsewhere, despite the bloc's leaders repeatedly saying Cyprus was a unique case.
"The risk of contagion remains. (The move) weakens these same (bank deposit) guarantees throughout the euro zone," Richard McGuire, rate strategist at Rabobank, said.
"Even if it doesn't spark wider market tensions now, once these begin to return, this episode will act as an accelerant of crisis tensions and will raise the risk they have a more self-fulfilling effect."
The market reaction in the lower-rated euro zone states to the proposed Cyprus bailout package has been relatively muted, with some analysts saying the market remains insulated by the European Central Bank's as yet untested bond-buying promise.
Italian 10-year yields were 9.8 basis points higher at 4.73 percent, some 12 basis points higher than last week's close. Spanish 10-year yields were 6 bps higher at 5.05 percent, also 12 bps up from Friday.
"The backstop is still there," said Michael Leister, rate strategist at Commerzbank, adding though that he still favoured German Bunds.
Analysts warned, however, against taking the relative resilience of peripheral markets as a sign that they were insulated from Cyprus contagion risks. Italy, in particular, remains vulnerable as it still struggles to form a government after last month's inconclusive elections.
"If we get some unfavourable political developments in Italy then what's come out at the weekend's Eurogroup will add pressure on the country. Equally any bad news out of Spain will be treated now more warily," Daiwa's Scicluna said.

Moore sports a T-shirt with the message, "I just did your girlfriend," a claim that will draw a snort of disdain from any customer, until he watches Moore plunder every chick in the credits.
Scene one ends in a facial, and Michele Raven swishes the swill around and blows bubbles before she expectorates into Vantasia's mouth. She relays the spunk to Domore, who reverses the process.

Ben Sidran
Ben Sidran is a polymath who holds a doctorate in American studies, has written several books, hosted and produced numerous radio and TV programs, and produced dozens of albums for artists as diverse as Diana Ross, Jon Hendricks, Van Morrison, and Rickie Lee Jones. The Wisconsin native (still Madison-based) is also a singer, keyboardist, vibraphonist, and songwriter with some 30 solo albums to his credit. Plus—drum roll—he co-wrote "Space Cowboy" (among other tunes) when he played with fellow Badger Steve Miller in his band of renown. Despite his legitimate rock legacy (including sessions with the Stones and Clapton), Sidran basically is a jazz hound from the hipster school of Mose Allison, or, as he once titled an album, on the cool side. Bringing it all back home on his latest album, Dylan Different, Sidran shines a brilliant new light on a dozen early Bob Dylan classics with jazzy arrangements that slyly incorporate simmering elements of funk, rock, and gospel. Meanwhile, Sidran's arid, Allison-style vocal delivery—once called "existential jazz rap"—compels us to pay close attention to vintage Dylan lyrics that were initially seized upon as phenomenal and revolutionary. Although long consigned to relative indifference by familiarity, the lyrics regain their luster thanks to Sidran's cool treatment, even "Blowin' in the Wind." On his way to Tokyo, Sidran will stop in for two nights at the Dakota with what he calls a "super hot" band: son Leo on drums (who also produced the album), trumpeter Mike Leonhart, reed player Bob Malach (who all played on it), plus the Twin Cities' own longtime Sidran associate Billy Peterson on bass.

A fully pipelined and massively parallel data acquisition system has been developed for the COMPASS experiment at CERN. The main requirements are to read 250000 detector channels at a trigger rate of up to 100 kHz. Such high rates are only possible when using a hit selection mechanism on the front-end combined with dead-time free readout. For this purpose, a time-to-digital converter (TDC) chip has been developed and is used for all time measurement applications in COMPASS. Distributed, field programmable gate array (FPGA)-based readout-driver modules handle parallel front-end initialization, synchronous trigger and control-signal distribution, and local event building at a processing speed of 160 Mbyte/s. Each of the 160 readout-driver modules connects to 16 front-end boards through independent twisted pair cables (CAT 7, 600 MHz) or optical fibers using an industrial (ESCON), self synchronizing link at 40 Mbyte/s. Automatic configuration through unique module and link identification ensures the flexibility and scalability to very large detector systems. The preprocessed data are transmitted through optical fibers at 160 Mbyte/s to the master event building system. Here global event building is realized on high-performance personal computers (PCs) and Gigabit ethernet network components. The complete events are sent to the central data recording at the CERN main site at an average rate of 40 Mbyte/s and stored in an object oriented database. A reduced system was set up for the commissioning run of COMPASS in 2000. Operation of the full system starts in July 2001

With the help of Shog9, I spent a bit of time looking at the feeds to see who or what are using them, and if we could see any shady behavior taking place. We didn't find any evidence that they are being used to promote sockpuppetry or bad voting habits. We also have a lot of hits to the user feeds. These are coming from a variety of places, by a plethora of ...
Don't ditch these feeds! As a regular user of SO, I've come across a lot of users on SO who are really good at what they do (see my profile page for said list, it's not like it's a secret). They tend to answer and comment on difficult and interesting questions, and I've been able to gain a lot of insight just by stalking them following their activity ...
Small pockets that inadvertently provide harbor to those with motives that aren't sincere are a hallmark of any system in which creativity and expression thrive. This is true in communities, it's true in games, and it's especially true in places where both of these things intersect.

I have fixed the offending question, and taken a snapshot to work on locally to see if we can fix the underlying problem.
I don't feel like gaming SO is as big of a problem as this at all. Sure, hypothetically it's a pretty effective tool to serially upvote someone, but the systems are already in place to detect that sort of thing.

There's no built-in functionality for this, but someone wrote a tool: RSS feed for favorite questions Here's a feed of your favourite questions: http://stack2rss.stackexchange.com/stackoverflow/users/1391924/favorites?body=true

This was caused by a known bug where we temporarily (for a few minutes) showed expired jobs our search results. It was a one-time bleep, and should hopefully not reoccur.
I setup Outlook and added an RSS feed and it does almost exactly what I want. https://www.extendoffice.com/documents/outlook/1319-outlook-add-remove-rss-feeds.html The only thing it doesn't do is go back in time. That's fine. I can capture all posts from now, going forward. That will give me PLENTY to read!! Thanks everyone.
I tinkered around with this a little. There is a tab on the main Jobs listing page which is labelled "most recent" which would be the sorting option you want. Choosing this tab adds ?sort=p to the URL, so I just copied that and plugged it into the RSS feed URL, like so: http://careers.stackoverflow.com/jobs/feed?sort=p Seems to work correctly.

My college uses a linux os, we can start xserver and then empty gui will appear, i wrote program to display a line, i compiled the code it 's fine. but when i execute the program it shows segmentation fault, how to execute the program in gui??
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, visit the help center.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
If your program segfaults, it probably has nothing to do with the GUI. You are probably attempting to access memory you weren't granted.
For your question on how to program a GUI, my best suggestion would be to use a library like Qt or GTK to abstract away the hard, strange Xserver code.

For the past few weeks, I've been doing a weekly radio chat with our senior political correspondent Jeff Greenfield. Now we've made it into a podcast, and I'd like to share it with you ... and give it a blog debut.
So, for your consideration, Political Pulse with Katie Couric and Jeff Greenfield.
Jeff and I have a lot of fun with this. It gives us more time to chat about politics. I've been obsessed with the campaign, and this has been just a great chance to discuss what's happened over the past week – and anticipate what's next – with a key member of what I've dubbed the "best political team in the galaxy." (That was my own personal riff on how CNN claims to have the best political team on television and MSNBC cites its own as the best on cable.)
So, take a listen and let us know what you think! And remember to check back next Friday for our next Political Pulse.

How To Change From NAT Type 3 to NAT Type 2
PS3 NAT Types (Generalized)
* NAT Type 1
You are either NOT behind a router/firewall OR you have already DMZ enabled your PS3. Your PS3 is connected properly and you shouldn't run into any issues.
* NAT Type 2
Your PS3 is connected to a router. Your PS3 is connected properly and you shouldn't run into any issues.
* NAT Type 3
You are behind a router/firewall. While your PS3 may be able to connect to the PSN and perform downloads/updates other functions may not work as intended.
How to find out your NAT Type
To find out your PS3s NAT Type simply go to:
Settings > Network Settings > Internet Connection Test
You'll be disconnected from the PSN while you perform your test. Once complete you'll know which NAT Type your PS3 is.
If you have NAT3 connection on your PS3, sooner or later you are bound to notice problems when playing current and future PS3 games and features. The most common as of now is WarHawk. This guide will walk you through how to change your NAT type 3 to NAT 2 (Dont worry if your lost there is a glossary down below to tell you exactly what everything is!) so you can eliminate this discrepancy
Before we begin I will like to let you know there is more than one method to do this. One way is to enable DMZ for PS3 (some routers support this!) and/or disable UPnP You can also follow the tutorial below if all else fails!
If you have NAT3 this is what you should see:
* DMZ (Demilitarized Zone)
Short for demilitarized zone, a computer or small subnetwork that sits between a trusted internal network, such as a corporate private LAN, and an untrusted external network, such as the public Internet.
* MAC Address (Media Access Control Address)
Short for Media Access Control address, a hardware address that uniquely identifies each node of a network. In IEEE 802 networks, the Data Link Control (DLC) layer of the OSI Reference Model is divided into two sublayers: the Logical Link Control (LLC) layer and the Media Access Control (MAC) layer. The MAC layer interfaces directly with the network medium. Consequently, each different type of network medium requires a different MAC layer.
* NAT (Network Address Translation)
Short for Network Address Translation, an Internet standard that enables a local-area network (LAN) to use one set of IP addresses for internal traffic and a second set of addresses for external traffic. A NAT box located where the LAN meets the Internet makes all necessary IP address translations.
* Port
In TCP/IP and UDP networks, an endpoint to a logical connection. The port number identifies what type of port it is. For example, port 80 is used for HTTP traffic.
* Port Range Forward
An interface on a computer to which you can connect a device. Personal computers have various types of ports. Internally, there are several ports for connecting disk drives, display screens, and keyboards. Externally, personal computers have ports for connecting modems, printers, mice, and other peripheral devices.
* Static IP
Generally refers to elements of the Internet or computer programming that are fixed and not capable of action or change. The opposite of static is dynamic.
* TCP (Transmission Control Protocol)
Abbreviation of Transmission Control Protocol, and pronounced as separate letters. TCP is one of the main protocols in TCP/IP networks. Whereas the IP protocol deals only with packets, TCP enables two hosts to establish a connection and exchange streams of data. TCP guarantees delivery of data and also guarantees that packets will be delivered in the same order in which they were sent.
* UDP (User Datagram Protocol)
Abbreviated UDP, a connectionless protocol that, like TCP, runs on top of IP networks. Unlike TCP/IP, UDP/IP provides very few error recovery services, offering instead a direct way to send and receive datagrams over an IP network. It's used primarily for broadcasting messages over a network.
* UPnP (Universal Plug and Play)
Short for Universal Plug and Play, a networking architecture that provides compatibility among networking equipment, software and peripherals of the 400+ vendors that are part of the Universal Plug and Play Forum.
How do I change my NAT Type
If your NAT Type 1 or 2 then you don't need to change a thing, everything is working as it should. If you're NAT Type 3 then you're in the right place and should try these steps. There is no guarantee what worked for me will work for you and since we all have different routers and I cannot offer support on your personal situation. The best I can do is tell you what worked for me and hope you can put the pieces together.
* In most cases you will have to assign your PS3 a static IP address. I can't tell you step by step how to do it to your router but hopefully now that you know what it's called you can find your way. You'll need to know your PS3s MAC address to assign a static IP. To find your MAC address simply go to
Settings > System Settings > System Information
You should now see your MAC address, I suggest you write it down.
* Once your PS3 has an static IP address you need to open up a few ports. In my situation I simply went to
Applications & Gaming > Port Range Forward
This is basically what I see..
Ultimately you need to open ports
* Once you've done this turn off your PS3 and power cycle your router. Run another Internet Connection Test and you're hopefully NAT Type 2.
Congratulations your PS3 is now NAT Type 2 and fully functional!

What i am looking to do is have a way for when a user clicks on a Post Title, a Image in a post, or anything having to do with a post, for it to open the entire post, including all the images, the post content, and the comments along with the add comment box in a light box or shadowbox effect that hovers over the page.
It would also be nice if there was a navigation for them to cycle from one post to another without leaving the light box / shadow box. With a next and previous arrow, or something simple like that.
I have lost track of how many different plugins and threads i have looked at about this topic. There are a rediculous amount of posts about this online where no descriptive or useful answers have been given.
There also seems to be a way to open just about everything in a lightbox / shadowbox, other then the post itself.
I would be very thankful if anyone could help me with this. I hope i have been clear on what i am trying to accomplish here. Thanks.
