I made a half recipe of this tonight, and we enjoyed it a lot. I really enjoyed the dressing, no problem with it being too sweet as the other reviewer mentioned. I used a lovely jalapeno jelly that Lorac sent me and 2 teaspoons of lime juice. I used thigh fillets in prefernce to breasts which meant the chicken was nice and juicy. I think avocados would be a good addition to this, adding to all the textures and tastes in it.
This chicken salad was very good. It reminds me of the Southwestern Chicken Salad from Jack-in-the-Box, which is a good thing. The only thing that kept me from rating this with 5 stars was that the dressing turned out a too sweet for me. It may be the jalapeno jelly that I used was sweeter than some, I don't know, but next time I think that I'll play around and try to come up with something less sweet. Also, I used leftover rotessorie chicken instead of cooking my own. I deboned it and cut it into chunks and sprinkled the taco seasoning on it. It was still very good. I would recommend this recipe to anyone. Just go easy on the dressing until you try it out. BTW I think that almost any dressing would work with this. Ranch with a kick of cayenne pepper would be great. Khandi
Oh my gosh, this salad was incredible and beautiful, too! Used frozen corn, and for the dressing used light sour cream and Jalapeno Jelly. Dressing was spicy with just a touch of sweetness. Pounded the chicken breasts before cooking. Thanks for sharing!!

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) _ Kansas legislators are taking a long weekend because they've met a major deadline for their session this year.
The deadline is called turnaround. It's when most bills must pass the chamber in which they were introduced to stay alive.
That deadline actually is Saturday, but both chambers finished their business Friday.
Lawmakers won't be in session Monday. Both chambers plan only brief sessions Tuesday afternoon before returning to a full schedule on Wednesday.
They are paid for the entire time, however. Their salaries are $86.50 a day, and they get $109 a day for expenses.

Annie Get Your Gun
Annie Get Your Gun features music and lyrics by Irving Berlin with a book by Dorothy and Herbie Fields. it is based on the life of Annie Oakley, a shooter who starred in Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show although many of the events are heavily fictionalised. The musical covers her romance with Frank Bulter and the events leading up to her joining the show. There have been numerous productions of the show around the world, with many of them enjoying long runs. Songs from the score have become instantly recognisable, such as 'There's No Business Like Show Business', 'Anything You Can Do' and 'You Can't Get a Man with a Gun'. Bernadette Peters starred in a successful Broadway revival that went on to a nationwide US tour. The role is perhaps most associated with Ethel Merman who played the original Annie Oakley.

"Colonel Buffalo Bill" brings his famous Wild West show to Cincinnati, where the star leading man Frank Butler challenges anyone in town to a duel ("I'm a Bad, Bad Man"). Foster Wilson, the owner of the hotel where the performers are staying is not pleased with their antics and bets Frank he can find someone who can outshoot him. Tomboy Annie Oakley arrives in town, and impressed by her shooting, Foster persuades her to face Frank in the shoot-off.
Annie runs into Frank, not knowing he will be her opponent, and immediately falls for him. She asks if he feels the same way, but he declares he wants a woman who is soft and fragile ("The Girl That I Marry"). They meet again at the shoot-off, and Frank is furious when Annie wins. Buffalo Bill manages to convince Annie to join the show permanently by explaining "There's No Business Like Show Business" and she agrees.
On the road, Frank begins to fall in love with Annie ("They Say It's Wonderful"). The show stops in Saint Paul, Minnesota while the rival company Pawnee Bill's Far East Show is stopped in nearby Minneapolis. Buffalo Bill asks Annie to perform a special trick to draw people to their show, and she agrees, as it will surprise Frank. Meanwhile, Frank plans to propose to Annie after that night's show ("My Defenses Are Down"). Annie's trick goes down a storm, and green with envy, Frank decides to join the rival Pawnee Bill's show instead and leaves Annie behind.
Buffalo Bill takes the show across Europe with Annie as the star, but both his company and Pawnee Bill's shows go bankrupt. The two impresarios agree to meet to discuss a merger, with each thinking the other has money to pay for both companies. Annie still misses Frank ("I Got Lost in His Arms"). When it is revealed that neither company has any money, Annie decides to sell her many shooting medals which have a combined worth of one hundred thousand dollars, declaring she only needs the simple things in life ("I Got the Sun in the Mornin'").
Frank and Annie reunite and immediately fall back in love. They decide to finally get married, but they both want very different things for the wedding ("An Old-Fashioned Wedding"). When Annie shows Frank her medals, he becomes furiously jealous once again. They agree to a final duel to settle the score ("Anything You Can Do"). Annie and Frank both deliberately miss their shots so the shoot-off ends in a tie, and they run off to be married as both shows carry on together.

People Really Hate John Edwards
Like, more than they hate anyone else.
For a few months John Edwards seemed to slip from the public's mind, but thanks to a little story from John Heilemann and Mark Halperin's Game Change, Edwards is back! So this was the perfect time for a poll of his home state to see just what North Carolinians think of the former Senator and presidential candidate. The answer? Not much. Edwards's favorability rating came in at a dismal 15 percent. Polling firm Public Policy Polling said that makes Edwards the"most unpopular person we've polled anywhere at any time." Congratulations to former record holder Roland Burris, someone is more hated than you!

Skylight comes alive with beautiful 'Sound of Music'
In one of many emotionally charged scenes in Skylight Music Theatre's "The Sound of Music" - a production I will cherish as long as I live - Maria congratulates Captain von Trapp and Frau Schraeder on their engagement, only to learn that this mismatched pair has just called it quits.
The flustered Maria apologizes for having said the wrong thing, and the Captain's response is spot-on: "You did say the wrong thing, but you said it at the right time." »Read Full Article(1)
Milwaukee Opera Theatre, Genghis Barbie rock the art song
Audiences at opera singers' recitals do not, customarily, pump their arms and cheer. Of course, singers at said recitals don't usually perform tunes by Queen and Guns N' Roses flanked by a quartet of female horn players, either.
Saturday evening's Milwaukee Opera Theatre presentation of Andrew Wilkowske in "Guns N' Rosenkavalier," directed by John Glover at the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music, was a riot of rule-breaking, genre-bending tunes from the worlds of art song and rock. »Read Full Article

Wrongful termination suit filed against Vt. townThe Associated Press | April 08,2013ST. JOHNSBURY St. Johnsburys former town manager is suing the town claiming he was unlawfully fired after just a week on the job.
Mark Shea, of Winchester, Mass., filed a wrongful termination lawsuit Friday seeking reinstatement as town manager and monetary damages.
Sheas attorney, Stephen Ellis, said the Board of Selectmens March 11 vote to rescind his appointment wasnt legal. Ellis said Vermont law requires cause to fire a town manager, which he says cant be accomplished by rescinding an appointment.
But a town attorney told the Caledonian Record that Shea was never hired in the first place and that theres no contract to support his contention.
In a separate lawsuit, former town manager Ralph Nelson is also suing St. Johnsbury for wrongful termination.

EXCL. PREVIEW: "Hal Jordan & the Green Lantern Corps" #1 Enforces 'Sinestro's Law'
Comic Books
As they teased back in September, Renae De Liz (The Last Unicorn, Womanthology) and her husband Ray Dillon (Servant of the Bones, The Last Unicorn) have launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund a graphic-novel adaptation of J.M. Barrie's Peter Pan.
"The original story is one of the most beautiful, inspired things I have ever read, and I hope to convey that beauty to the best of my abilities into this graphic novel," De Liz writes on the project's Kickstarter page. "I also intend to further explore Peter Pan and Captain Hook's backstory by adapting parts from J.M Barrie's The Little White Bird ( prequel to Peter and Wendy) and a little known informations given by Barrie about Jas. Hook into the story."
They're seeking a rather sizable amount — $48,000 — to fund production of the first of three planned volumes, which will be released by IDW Publishing. Pledge incentives range from a copy of the 90-page Peter Pan: The Companion Guide to signed editions to an appearance as a background character in one or more panels. Just a day into the campaign, they've already raised $6,424.
The artwork is incredibly beautiful (and I like their Peter Pan logo), I wish them good luck. It's very hard to pull off these kickstarter campaigns without it sounding like hokey politics. One really needs to carefully consider their marketing strategy and language so that they aren't providing desperate sounding mission statements like: "…the most beautiful, inspired things I have ever read, and I hope to convey that beauty to the best of my abilities into this…"
Still, the creative team behind this is very talented and hopefully they meet that high pledge quote in time.
A lot people still haven't received their Womanthology copies from these two creators, and that Kickstarter campaign was nearly two years ago. Dealing with both of these people to get my copy — which I still haven't got — has been nothing short of a hassle with excuse after excuse. Maybe this project will be different, but I won't be donating to find out.
Thanks so much for your continued support ROBOT 6!!
@George – Renae absolutely means that. Sure she's my wife, but she's also the most sincere person I've ever known. She's definitely not a sales-person by nature.
@Anoneemous – I understand your thoughts here. Womanthology was a whole different beast and our biggest hurdle has been shipping. The book has been done for quite a while now. We're not doing the shipping ourselves, but coordinating with IDW's shipping company to get the copies out. Unfortunately a quite a few, especially international copies haven't made it to their destinations, but are now starting to show up and we're checking back in all the time to make sure they have the right addresses and such. The other issue are circuit editions and sketch editions which take a long time to ship to all the creators signing and sketching, the to the backers. The creators have donated their time and it's hard to find time for that sort of thing in a busy professional schedule. But again, you WILL get your copy. Very sorry for your wait. The number of backers waiting has diminished a lot in the last few weeks.
I also would like to point out you did more than just order a book, you helped get 150 women published at IDW starting a lot of careers and helped raise $35,000 for charity. Hopefully that makes the wait worth it. You did a great thing.
The difference with Peter Pan: It's just Renae and I creating, printing, and shipping ourselves. Simplify the whole process.
If anyone else has any questions or concerns I'm happy to discuss them with you.
Thank you for your support! This project really does mean a lot to us and will be our first time not just doing a one-time work-for-hire project. And we really do love Peter Pan!
Peter Pan's been a personal dream project for many years now, and I'm so incredibly happy to be able to start working on it finally! And YES thanks to Robot 6 yet again for being so supportive!!
Anoneemous – I'm sorry but that is untrue. There absolutely are not a lot of people waiting on Womanthology books. Out of 1400 books bought as rewards there are about 20 (mostly International) copies that keep getting lost, abandoned, caught by customs, have wrong addresses and have to be resent repeatedly only to have the same thing happen. Other than that, there are some art/signed editions that were severely delayed because of my hospitalization and recovery in June-September, of which I could not avoid. I have never shown anything but a sincere desire to complete any responsibilities, and I will not stop until everything is complete.
I have happily given over a year of my life to Womanthology in the name of doing something positive and good and it's been a wonderful experience, but now my responsibility for that is near completion, and I feel confident it's time to move my life forward again. And in doing so will in no way, shape or form prevent me from continuing to try and deliver any remaining books.
Thank you!

Early Neoclassical Views on Monopoly: The Cournotian Heritage
This paper analyses how Cournot"s views on Monopoly have influenced the marginalists authors. It is argued that there are two different points of view in the cournotian evaluation of the consequence of Monopoly. The first one is a purely theoretical construction adopted in modern economic theory. Even if it is a theoretical one it has normative consequence. From these it is derived a negative appreciation on Monopoly. The second is a more pragmatic point of view. Whereas the former is purely theoretical the latter is derived from multiple examples and it cannot be based on the same theoretical framework as the well known theory of monopoly prices. From this pragmatic point of view, Cournot constructs some "positive" appreciations on the existence of monopolies. These two different appreciations on imperfect markets have influenced in different ways the works of the authors of the Marginal Revolution. Following this distinction we study the different points of view of Walras, Edgeworth and Marshall on Monopoly. We show that even if Walras"s theory of Monopoly does not have the same theoretical foundations of Cournot"s, his normative point of view on monopolies is closely related with the "purely theoretical" conclusions. Walras frequently quoted Cournot on these matters. Edgeworth and Marshall have a different point of view on Monopoly, mainly pragmatic and sometimes quite positive from the normative point of view. However Walras"s as well as Edgeworth"s and Marshall"s theories on monopoly are not based on their theories of perfect competition. We conclude that the marginlists views on imperfect competition are not constructed as a "perturbation" or a "friction" of a perfectly competitive market.

Femtosecond-laser-encoded distributed-feedback color center laser in lithium fluoride single crystals84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1640784View Description Hide Description
Laser-active centers were produced in lithium fluoride (LiF) at a concentration of by irradiating focused femtosecond (fs) laser pulses from a mode-locked titaniumsapphire laser (wavelength emission pulse duration This technique was used to write waveguides embedded in LiF crystals. A refractive index change estimated from a guide propagation method was approximately at a wavelength of 633 nm. Refractive index-modulated volume-type gratings were also encoded inside LiF crystals by a single interfered fs laser pulse. The distributed feedback laser structure was fabricated using the gratings thus encoded, which exhibited a room-temperature -color center laser oscillation at 707 nm. This demonstrates a DFBcolor center laser operating at room temperature utilizing photon written, permanent Bragg gratings.
High-temperature, high-power, continuous-wave operation of buried heterostructure quantum-cascade lasers84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1641174View Description Hide Description
We report cw operation of buried heterostructure quantum-cascade lasers (λ=6 μm) using a thick electroplated Au top contact layer and epilayer-up bonding on a copper heat sink up to a temperature of 333 K (60 °C). The high cw optical output powers of 446 mW at 293 K, 372 mW at 298 K, and 30 mW at 333 K are achieved with threshold current densities of 2.19, 2.35, and 4.29 respectively, for a high-reflectivity-coated, 9-μm-wide and 3-mm-long laser.
Highly efficient continuous-wave operation at 1030 and 1075 nm wavelengths of LD-pumped ceramic lasers84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1641514View Description Hide Description
Room-temperature cw laser oscillations at 1030 and 1075 nm wavelengths were demonstrated for the mode with ceramics by LD-pumping. A maximum extraction efficiency of 72% at 1075 nm lasing wavelengths and of 45% at 1030 nm lasing wavelengths were observed.
Near-diffraction-limited coherent emission from large aperture antiguided vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser arrays84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1640799View Description Hide Description
We demonstrate that in-phase mode operation with a near-diffraction-limited beam can be realized in large aperture (up to 100 elements) antiguided vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser(VCSEL) arrays. A selective etching process with two-step metalorganic chemical vapor deposition is used for fabrication of the antiguided VCSEL array structures. Modal discrimination is enhanced by intentionally choosing a GaAs cap thickness so as to introduce suitable loss to array interelement regions. Far field patterns indicate in-phase mode operation from both triangular and rectangular geometry antiguided VCSEL arrays, which is in good agreement with theory.
Dynamic array of dark optical traps84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1642752View Description Hide Description
A dynamic array of dark optical traps is generated for simultaneous trapping and arbitrary manipulation of multiple low-index microstructures. The dynamic intensity patterns forming the dark optical trap arrays are generated using a nearly loss-less phase-to-intensity conversion of a phase-encoded coherent light source. Two-dimensional input phase distributions corresponding to the trapping patterns are encoded using a computer-programmable spatial light modulator, enabling each trap to be shaped and moved arbitrarily within the plane of observation. We demonstrate the generation of multiple dark optical traps for simultaneous manipulation of hollow "air-filled" glass microspheres suspended in an aqueous medium.
Electra: Repetitively pulsed, 500 J, 100 ns, KrF oscillator84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1641513View Description Hide Description
Electra is a repetitively pulsed, double-sided, electron-beam pumped krypton fluoride laser. Electra has recently operated as an oscillator with an output pulse of 510 J, with 100 ns pulse duration for single shots. At a 1 Hz repetition rate for a ten-shot burst, the laser output averaged 500 J per shot. The dependence of the laser energy on the partial pressures of Kr, Ar, and were examined. Over a 10 to 30 psi total pressure range, the laser output energy decreases with decreasing argon concentration. Specifically, the laser output drops slightly as the argon concentration reduces from 60% to 40%, and then drops more noticeably as it is reduced to 0%. For the 60% Ar case, the optimal fluorine concentration is 0.25%, with a significant falloff in the laser energy from 0.25% to 0.1% and a gradual falloff from 0.25% to 0.7% fluorine. The present burst results indicate that the KrF kinetics is not very sensitive to the gas temperature at a total pressure of 20 psi.
Discrete wavelength tunable laser using microelectromechanical systems technology84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1639130View Description Hide Description
A discrete wavelength tunable laser has been demonstrated using microelectromechanical systems(MEMS)technology. The laser system is formed by integrating a semiconductor laser, a single-mode optical fiber, and a MEMSmirror onto a single chip. It has overall dimensions of 1.5 mm×1 mm×0.6 mm (not including the optical fiber), and can be tuned to sweep a wavelength range of 13.5 nm within 1 ms. Unlike the conventional continuously tunable lasers, the laser system enables discrete wavelength tuning by making use of a short external cavity and weak feedback.

Hydrogen ion beam generated by a current-free double layer in a helicon plasma84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1643548View Description Hide Description
A current-free double layer in an expanding hydrogen helicon discharge (13.56 MHz) has been discovered by measuring a beam of hydrogen ions at the low potential side of the double layer. The ion beam is supersonic and is detected using a retarding field energy analyzer positioned downstream of the double layer for pressures below a few mTorr and for radio frequency powers up to 1800 W.

Carrier lifetime in conductive and vanadium-doped 6H-SiC substrates84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1641172View Description Hide Description
Conductive undoped and semi-insulating vanadium-doped 6H-SiC substrates were studied using the light-induced transient grating technique and photoluminescence(PL)spectroscopy.Carrier lifetime of 400±10 ps and diffusion coefficient of 2.7±0.2 were obtained for the nominally undoped wafer, while the corresponding parameters for the V-doped wafer were estimated to be 130±5 ps and 0.9±0.5 respectively. The peak PL intensity in the vanadium-doped wafers is more than three orders of magnitude lower than that in nominally undoped wafers. Low-temperature cw PL spectra revealed a band peaked at 507 nm, which is caused by V doping.
Conformal thin-film silicon nitride deposited by hot-wire chemical vapor deposition84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1640803View Description Hide Description
We have studied silicon nitridethin filmsdeposited by hot-wire chemical vapor deposition as a function of the substrate temperature and hydrogen dilution. We found that adding to the process significantly enhances silicon nitridefilm deposition. High-quality films can be grown at low substrate temperatures (<350 °C). At optimized conditions, a 500-Å-thick silicon nitridefilm gives a nearly 100% surface coverage on a 100 nm scale object. H dilution dramatically increases the radicals in the process and leads to conformal films.
Use of deposition pressure to control residual stress in polycrystalline SiC films84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1640781View Description Hide Description
Polycrystalline silicon carbide (poly-SiC) thin films were grown in a large-volume, low pressure chemical vapor deposition furnace using dichlorosilane and acetylene precursors. The deposition temperature was fixed at 900 °C and the pressure was varied between 0.46 and 5 Torr. The residual stress of as-deposited SiC films ranged from highly tensile to moderately compressive as the deposition pressure was increased from 0.46 to 5 Torr, with tensile stress below 50 MPa in films deposited at around 2.5 Torr. Cantilever beams with no vertical deformation were fabricated from the low tensile stress films, and they indicated that the stress gradient was also very low in these films. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that all the films were highly textured polycrystalline (111) regardless of the residual stress. Transmission electron microscopy indicated that both the tensile and compressive films were columnar in microstructure, with slight differences in the axial alignment of the grains with respect to the film/substrate interface as well as in the density of features in the grain boundaries. An explanation for the observed differences in residual stress based on differences in film microstructure is proposed.
Stress and structural relaxation in amorphous hydrogenated carbon films84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1637447View Description Hide Description
The correlation between the residual stress and the atomic-bond structure has been investigated in detail in hydrogenated amorphous films The relaxation process was studied in relation with the Raman characteristics evolution and the induced metric distortions during growth. The analysis of the Raman data shows that the metric distortions alone cannot explain the stress relaxation in the deposited films. The creation of some topological defects, such as odd rings, is required to explain both the Raman features behavior and the structural relaxation in the samples.
Bulk nanostructure formation directly from the multicomponent alloy melt84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1642756View Description Hide Description
The first bulk homogeneous nanocrystalline (at. %) alloy prepared by melt casting without the amorphous matrix is reported. In this work, the complete grain refinement directly by solidification processing, when qualitatively compared to the previously reported nanocrystallization by postdevitrification of amorphous alloy solid precursors, produces nanograins that have a relatively narrower size range (7.4 nm in average) and are randomly oriented. The total inhomogeneous chemical affinity of the multicomponent alloy was proposed to thermodynamically favor the three-dimensional nanoscale nucleation from alloy melts. Clustering of different atoms in the ZrAlNiCo alloy occurs while the material is still in the molten state.
Roughness and stability of silicon on insulator surfaces84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1641181View Description Hide Description
The feasibility of low temperature processes (below to obtain in situ atomically clean and smooth surfaces on (100) oriented silicon on insulator material (SOI) with negligible variation of the top Si film thickness was tested. These steps were characterized using low-energy electron diffraction and atomic force microscopy supplemented by conductivity measurements. The most promising method for obtaining atomically smooth and continuous SOI films is the evaporation of Si at at a flux of 0.15 ML/min. For lower rates [113]-oriented pits are formed within the SOI layer. It turned out that mobile and volatile oxide formation at the interface in these materials can occur already at temperatures below leading to the destruction of the buried oxide layer.
Enhanced luminescence of thin-film phosphors by Li doping84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1641526View Description Hide Description
and Li-doped luminescent thin films have been grown on (0001) substrates using pulsed-laser deposition. The filmsgrown under different deposition conditions show different microstructural and luminescent characteristics. Both cubic and monoclinic crystalline structures were observed in films, but only the cubic crystalline structure was observed for Li-doped filmsgrown under certain condition. The photoluminescence(PL)brightness data obtained from Li-doped films indicate that sapphire is a promising substrate for growth of high-quality Li-doped thin-film red phosphor. In particular, incorporation of ions into the lattice can induce a remarkable increase of PL. The highest emission intensity was observed with LiF-doped whose brightness was a factor of 2.3 larger than that from films. This phosphor is promising for applications in flat-panel displays.
Deep ultraviolet scanning near-field optical microscopy for the structural analysis of organic and biological materials84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1642757View Description Hide Description
Scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM) using a deep ultraviolet (DUV) light source was developed for in situ imaging of a variety of chemical species without staining. Numerous kinds of chemical species have a carbon–carbon double bond or aromatic group in their chemical structure, which can be excited at the wavelength below 300 nm. In this study, the wavelength range available for SNOM imaging was extended to the DUV region. DUV–SNOM allowed the direct imaging of polymer thin films with high detection sensitivity and spatial resolution of several tens of nanometers. In addition to the polymer materials, we demonstrated the near-field imaging of a cell without using a fluorescence label.
High fluorescence quantum efficiency of emission in Tm-doped low silica calcium aluminate glass determined by thermal lens spectrometry84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1640782View Description Hide Description
In this work, thermal lens spectrometry is performed to determine the fluorescencequantum efficiency (η) of the level (1.8 μm emission) of 4 and 5 wt % Tm-doped water free low silicacalcium aluminate glass. The η value obtained for both high Tm contents was approximately 30%, which is in agreement with the Judd–Ofelt calculation. It is also verified that heat generation under 0.79 μm pumping, which presents a high quantum defect, is minimized by a cross-relaxation mechanism. The high η values, and the excellent chemical and thermomechanicalproperties indicate this system is a potential host material for diode-pumped laser sources operating in the midinfrared spectral range.
Layer-by-layer diamond-like woodpile structure with a large photonic band gap84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1642279View Description Hide Description
A layer-by-layer periodic dielectric structure with a large photonic band gap is presented. It consists of a layer-by-layer approximation to the triply periodic bicontinuous level set D surface structure having diamond symmetry. The structure retains the ease of fabrication of the standard woodpile while increasing the maximum quality factor of the gap by 28%. Photonic band gapproperties of this structure were calculated using the plane-wave method and its band gap optimized at a fixed index contrast of 3.6:1.

Spin-dependent transport in lateral periodic magnetic modulations: Scheme for spin filters84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1640805View Description Hide Description
A scheme for spin filters is proposed by studying the coherent transport of electrons through quantum wires with lateral magnetic modulation. Unlike other schemes reported in the literature, the modulation in our scheme is much weaker than the Fermi energy. Large spin polarization through the filter is predicted. Further study suggests the robustness of this spin filter.
Germanium-concentration dependence of arsenic diffusion in silicon germanium alloys84(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1641169View Description Hide Description
The germanium-concentration dependence of arsenic diffusion in relaxed silicongermanium alloys with Ge content ranging from 0 to 40% has been investigated. Arsenic was implanted into relaxed epitaxial layers at 15 keV to a dose of and diffusion during furnace and rapid thermal annealing was studied. Under equilibrium extrinsic conditions, the arsenic diffusivity increases exponentially with increasing Ge content in Under transient diffusion conditions, the arsenic diffusivity in is retarded compared to the diffusivity for longer times, while a slight transient enhancement of As diffusion is observed in Si. The degree of transient retardation depends on the germanium concentration in the alloy.

Acknowledging Discrimination as a Key to the Gender Pay Gap

I comment again on issues raised in my initial paper in this issue (Lips 2012, this issue) and respond to commentaries by Huffman (2012, this issue), Olson (2012), Stockdale and Nadler (2012) and Tharenou (2012). Even in the light of a large and growing body of evidence for the gender pay gap, a lack of awareness of the gap still exists. This lack of awareness may have roots in system-justification beliefs. Such beliefs can be reinforced by a human capital approach, which may appear to rationalize the gender pay gap by attributing it mainly to the choices individuals make, while downplaying the role of discrimination. Although, as commentators on my original article have pointed out, some researchers who use this model may be aware of its limitations, and some may have moved beyond it because of its limitations, such limitations may not be so obvious to consumers of the research. Thus, a continuing, careful critique of the human capital model, and attention to the impact of cultural gender stereotypes on the variables it encompasses, is warranted. However, as several commentators have also noted, there are other useful ways of analyzing the gender pay gap, such as focusing on institutional variables associated with it or examining it from the perspective of cumulative disadvantage. These too should also be vigorously pursued in the service of understanding and eliminating the gap.

Cast: Katie Morgan, Lexi Lamour, Lexi Marie, Vanessa Lane, Trevor (I), Brooke Haven, Aussie Thunder, Dick Nasty, Jason Thorne, Harmony (I)
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Specialty
Katie Morgan's probably the selling point here, but fans of the series won't be disappointed by any of the action.
Baz's excellent camerawork adds a needed extra dimension to this feature, which wastes hot Vanessa Lane on her "boyfriend's dad," Dick Nasty. Fortunately, that's this feature's low point; its high point is the finale, with beautifully vocal Katie Morgan first shown with her natural tits, et voilá, they're magically transformed to busty ones in time for excellent mish, cowgirl (love that hip action!) and doggie with Aussie Thunder before the fireplace. Nearly as good is the Harmony/Trevor opener, with terrific low camera angles adding much to enjoyment of the doggie, and Trevor's strength making it a joy to watch the standing reverse cowgirl action.
Brooke Haven's first-ever scene with bud Lexi Marie is more a tribute to Lexi's prowess, and worth watching for that, and Lexi Lamour's first boy/girl action with Jason Horne is decent, owing much of its heat to good camera work.

A panel of Indiana University economists offered a slightly optimistic outlook for our region's economy last week during a meeting in Columbus.
The panelists said South Central Indiana should see modest economic growth next year, adding perhaps 2,000 new jobs, if global and national risks don't cause unexpected bumps in the road to those potential gains.
Ryan Brewer, assistant professor of finance at IUPUC, was cautiously optimistic when speaking to about 100 folks gathered for the program.

We're down to the last few weeks of this summer's transfer window, and while many teams have concluded their business early, there are still a few players that managers believe are the missing piece to their tactical jigsaw.
Last season we saw Man United boss David Moyes make a last minute panic buy for former player Marouane Fellaini, and it proved to be a massive flop.
For Liverpool, they will mainly need to fill the hole left by Luis Suarez, but should really take their time in considering their options before making a last minute purchase.
Here are SIX PANIC BUYS Liverpool should avoid this summer.

I went to El Colorado in late August last year (2007) for a few days around the same time as the other poster who saw Shaun White. I stayed in the Puerta de Sol Hotel which is the mid-range hotel at Valle Nevado. Overall, its a decent place to ski for a day or two if you are staying in Santiago, but I'd avoid the Valle Nevado hotels and would much prefer Portillo both for the hotel, food and skiing.
The Mountain:
Valle Nevado is big by acerage, but doesn't feel nearly as big once your there. A lot of the terrain is the same, but they do have a high speed that allows you to log big vertial. The trail underneath the high speed is nice before the mountain flattens out. When I was there it hadn't snowed in a week or two so snow was extremely hard. It made going off piste very difficult. Given that Valle Nevado sees a measly 150 inhes of snow a year I don't think this was all that uncommon.
What really compounded the hard snow conditions was extremely flat light coupled with the lack of trees or other terrain features. I don't know if its common, but for the 3 days I skied there there was overcast skiies with strong sun behind then or even worse complete white out. I don't know if these are common, but I was totally unable to see any terrain features even with Pink Lense Goggles.
Since Valle Nevado is completely above the tree line and lacks major rock features the groomed runs are only market by an occasional stick or two. With the flat light it was impossible to tell where the trail was and I often found myself skiing on ice moguls. When I did go off piste I found it diffiult to see these features which made skiing off the groomers impossible.
On the final day we had a white out where I missed the trail to get home on more than one occasion. It was impossible to see the hotel from even 20 feet away.
It looked like there was some good terrain off the upper pomas, but not the variety of terrain, rocks or trees, that you see at some of the premire ski resorts in the world. I'm sure that if the sun was out and it had snowed recently these areas whould have been fun, but in no way transcendant.
I will say however that skiiers right off Andes Express provided massive amounts of open terrain and natural halfpipes. This area was awesome and by the last day I spent all my time there. This area may technially be out of bounds, but it is easy to get back to the lift. The out of bounds signs must keep some skiers away and the snow was very soft. The slopes for whatever reason also got more sun then the other half of the mountain. Anyway this valley whih is huge between Valle Nevado is the best skiing in the Three Valley's region. Once you get comfortable with the undulatiosn you can just rip across what feels like and probably is a couple thousand acres and 2600 or so vertical. Particularly for boarders this is a dream.
There are a few downsides of this area though:
1. Its technically OB.
2. If you ski down the wrong valley you'll end up at the El Colorado T Bar. It's an awesome lift too, but if you don't have an Colorado lift ticket you have to hike out.
3. One you get to the bottom your stuck taking 3 chairlifts to get back to the top. That's the trade off I guess.
To sum it up the trails are ok with nothing great. The one area to skiiers right off the Andes Express is great but its technically OB and difficult to get to.
Hotel: I stayed in the Puerta de Sol Hotel which is the mid range of the three Hotels at Valle Nevado. The whole hotel felt a little run down, but nothing dramatically bad. The rooms were decent and fairly priced, included lunch and dinner. The hotel had some nice amenities: Hot tub, Bar, Pool table, Foosball, Free computers and Wireless. Nonetheless the overall disorganization was unbelivable and would deter me from ever going back. I know that general disorganization is part and parcel of going to South America so maybe this is standard, but this was certainly worse than what I saw in Portillo or the several Santiago hotels I stayed at.
The problems below:
1. When we first arrived check in took 45 or so minutes. I was hoping to ski immediately so this delay was not appreciated.
2. The number one disastisfier was probably the restaurants. Dinners were included at any of the 5 Valle Nevado restaurants. We could eat at whichever we wanted, but had to make a reservation that morning on some computer that had serious difficulty combinign reservatiosn for the two rooms we were staying in. As a result we would repeatedly show up at restaurants and they would tell us that they didn't have our reservation or would only seat two of us. At the French Restaunt La Fourchette, we showed up late and they refused to seat us even though teh restaurant was completely empty. There were actually two other groups who were having the exact same problem, but the restaurant manager still refused to seat us. I think the problem was that the hotel would reimburse the restaurant, but only if we were on file through the reservation system. As a result they wouldn't seat us even when it was obviously not our fault. Since we had made a very late reservation there was no where else we could eat and we would have the same problem anywhere. We were pretty furious nad eventually the hotel security was called by the restaurant. Hotel security finally sorted out the problem and we were seated, but its hardly the experience I like to have on a vacation.
As far as the restaurants go La Fourchette D'or is really phenomenal and I'd make every restaurant there for every night if I went back. La Trattoria was pretty decent, while Don Giovani was a disaster with poor food and services. I didn't eat at the swiss/fondue restaurant, the sushi bar (not an option with the hotel plan) or the Chilean place.
3. Checking in was also a huge problem because thye were totally inapable of delivering our bags to our room on the first day or even assigning us to our rooms correctly.
4. Our keys never worked correctly and I was constantly going down to the front desk to get them exchanged. With three people in a room and all over the resort this created serious difficulties.
5. The hotel is a lot of stories ~10 and there are only two small slow elevators. Even if you wait for them they are often completely full. As a result, you need to take the stairs which is bothersome at 8000 feel after a day of skiing.
Oveall: There are some decent areas or the mountain. The hotel complex has major disorganization problems that by all accounts are not just contained to the Hotel Purerta del Sol. Given the mountain, lack of snow and the crappy hotels there are much better places in South America to go for a vacation. If I was in Santiago for business I might consider getting one of the Ski Vans to take me up for a Day or Two for skiing, but the trecherous road makes this a scarey and time consuming proposition.

Re: Under contract, but very worried (IRS / 4056-T form / Streamline agreement)[ Edited ]
12-06-2012 08:31 AM - edited 12-06-2012 08:33 AM
Well I called the Tax Advocacy again and got someone worth a damn to assign me a case. I won't get the call until tomorrow and they said they won't guarantee by the 19th to have it done. So I will have to get an extension for closing now, if they even will. The Loan officer did say to send him a cancelled check from the IRS payment and bank statement showing I paid it, I guess as another form of proof I filed? I sent that and haven't heard anything yet, maybe that will work I hope.
I just have a feeling I when closing day comes, I will have a voided contract and have lost my earnest money and they inspection costs for nothing..it sucks.

The closing scene of The Aviator is pretty good.

The closing scene to Mr Roberts is another classic
I don't think anyone mentioned the closing scene of "Shane." "Shane come back! Shane!!!"

"This isnt stats vs scouts - this is stats and scouts working together, building an organization that blends the best of both worlds. This is the blueprint for how a baseball organization should be run. And, whether the baseball men of the 20th century like it or not, this is where baseball is going."---Dave Cameron, U.S.S. Mariner
"Does Shane die at the end?
The film leaves that question unanswered, although viewers can be found to support either side of the argument. Those who conclude that Shane dies argue that the last scene in which he rides through a cemetery is an indication that he is dying or is already dead. They point out that he is slumping slightly with his arm to his side and that, in the novel, the gunshot was to his abdomen. They reason that he goes off to die as one last favor to the Starretts. Shane admires and likes Joe but is in love with Marian. He leaves so that they do not know for sure that he has died; he knows that the guilt Joe and Marian would feel at his death would poison their marriage. Those who conclude that Shane is not dying counter that the cemetery is simply on the way back to the mountains and that he is leaning forward because he is going uphill, as horseback riders tend to do. Although he was shot, they argue, it appears to be a superficial wound to his upper arm. The wound isn't bleeding profusely, Shane isn't acting like the wound is serious, he could mount and ride his horse, and he is holding up the reins. Others circumvent the argument entirely by pointing out that it matters little whether or not Shane dies from his wound. The movie itself is an allegory saying that the gunfighter, like the free range cattle rancher, are dying breeds. The West is being settled, civilized and developed. It's giving way to a new era where the rugged individual was being replaced by families... where peace would prevail and gunfighters no longer had a place."
I agree with the allegory theory, but I also believe Shane lives and believes his time as a gunfighter is up and he needs to leave. If Shane stays his presence is bound to cause problems in the relationship of Joe and Marian.

Samsung N150 notebook
The Samsung N150 is the latest miniature notebook that promises an improved battery life and basic computing on the cheap. But can it deliver? We grabbed one and hit the road to find out.
Sporting the latest Intel Atom 1.66GHz N450 "Pine Trail" processor, the key here to the power and performance of the new Atom is an architecture that features the processor and graphics card on the one chip. That move means that the general power drain of the system is kept to a minimum so you can get plenty of power out of the included battery without having to resort to something large and clunky that sticks out the back.
The battery at 100% charge will promise you over 8 hours in total, enough to get you through the day without having to find a power socket: handy indeed if you are on the road.
In our tests battery life varied depending on what we were doing, whether or not we used Wi-Fi, for example, but it's fair to say if you are just planning on surfing the web and general word processing, then it will be more than enough to get you through most of the day.
Design wise the Samsung N150 is a lightweight device (1.24kg) that comes in a dulled white or black plastic shell. That plastic isn't that luxurious in its design compared to netbooks from the likes of HP or Toshiba, making this appear rather cheap.
That said, the outside sports a fairly inoffensive design that is simple and to the point. Connections are to be found down either side, with the underneath offering access to the removable battery, as well as the computer's RAM.
Connections include three well-spaced USB sockets (one on the left, two on the right), Ethernet, VGA socket for use with a bigger monitor, and headphones and mic jacks. There is also a 3-in-1 memory card reader.
Open up the netbook and you're presented with a 10-inch matte screen that has a 1024 x 600 (WSVGA) resolution. That matte screen is perfect for working in bright light conditions, however the short height and tall Windows 7 taskbar will mean you either have to opt for a right- or left-side taskbar or auto-hide to get the most out of the screen when working on longer documents or surfing web pages.
Beneath that you get a rather uninspiring keyboard that is tight in its design. While that isn't too much of a problem for the mainstay of the QWERTY keyboard, it does mean areas like the arrow keys and Fn keys are incredibly small requiring nimble hands to operate at any sort of speed.
Below that is a rather large (considering the size of the netbook) trackpad with a button bar directly below it. The trackpad itself is easy to use, sensitive enough to allow fluid motion across the screen and even multi-touch support for scrolling, zooming and rotating your way through commands.
The same however can't be said for the buttons bar, which we had trouble pressing easily. It's a simple problem that could have been fixed by making the bar slightly wider. Meanwhile above the screen is a 0.3 megapixel webcam, while sound is provided by SRS TruSound XT to please the multimedia fan in you.
Get past the pros and cons of the design, which is fairly typical, and you get to start using the computer for what it was intended.
Samsung has packed the N150 with that processor we talked about above, 1GB of RAM and 160GB hard drive. You'll also get Wi-Fi connectivity (b/g/n), however not Bluetooth. With no Nvidia ION graphics processor this is a netbook designed for light tasks, so it won't handle gaming nor acceptably play back your HD video. It is fine for SD video however. The N150 runs Windows 7 Starter Edition.
Software wise and the N150 is loaded to the hilt with trial software that will have you searching for the delete key within seconds. After what seems to be a first install that lasts forever you'll get: Samsung Recovery Solution IV, Samsung Magic Doctor, Easy SpeedUp Manager, Easy Resolution Manager, Magic Keyboard, Adobe Reader, Easy Display Manger, Easy Network Manager, Samsung Battery Manager, Cyberlink YouCam, Samsung Update Plus, Battery Life Extender, Google Toolbar, Failsafe, AnyPC, Hyperspace, Game console, Suite Windows Live, and Microsoft Office Home & Student Trial + Microsoft Works all pre-installed. Cripes.
At £280 the Samsung N150 is a standard netbook that is perfect if your needs aren't anything other than emailing, web surfing and basic word processing. More powerful devices are out there, but you do have to pay a premium for those.
The main problem the Samsung N150 suffers from is that it is unadventurous in its design, so there is virtually nothing to shout about over and above the competition other than that long battery life, and then in that it is not unique.
But if you don't care about any of that stuff, i.e., looking good for the sake of it, then the Samsung N150 will do you nicely.
