This edition is written in English. However, there is a running Korean thesaurus at the bottom of each page for the more difficult English words highlighted in the text. There are many editions of Ancient China Simplified. This edition would be useful if you would like to enrich your Korean-English vocabulary, whether for self-improvement or for preparation in advanced of college examinations. Webster's edition of this classic is organized to expose the reader to a maximum number of difficult and potentially ambiguous English words. Rare or idiosyncratic words and expressions are given lower priority compared to "difficult, yet commonly used" English words. Rather than supply a single translation, many words are translated for a variety of meanings in Korean, allowing readers to better grasp the ambiguity of English without using the notes as a pure translation crutch. Having the reader decipher a word's meaning within context serves to improve vocabulary retention and understanding. Each page covers words not already highlighted on previous pages. This edition is helpful to Korean-speaking students enrolled in an English Language Program (ELP), an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) program, an English as a Second Language Program (ESL), or in a TOEFL® or TOEIC® preparation program. Students who are actively building their vocabularies in Korean or English may also find this useful for Advanced Placement® (AP®) tests.

Discussant's Response to The Role of Auditing Theory in Education and Practice R. K. Mautz Ernst & Ernst Bob Hamilton and I approach the nature, purpose, and usefulness of auditing theory so differently that after reading his paper I thought it best to give him a call so we might get better acquainted. As I suspected, we had met earlier, but I still knew very little about Bob's background and experience. Interestingly enough, we have similar educational and experience histories. Both of us have commitments to and have spent considerable time in academic work; both of us have had practical audit experience. The major difference is that I have been at both of these for a considerably longer time than has Bob. To which one of us that is an advantage or disadvantage, you must decide. Given those similar backgrounds, why is it that we should have such different interests, that we should approach auditing theory in such disparate ways? Our conversation suggested that Bob is not at all troubled by our differences. On the contrary, he expresses himself as thinking our differences may have usefulness, at least for the purposes of this symposium, in encouraging discussion. So let me note in more detail the nature of our major differences and then try to explain why I think they exist. Different Approaches to Auditing Theory Bob takes a broad view of auditing theory. He calls for a theory that explains the role of auditing in our economy, what it does, why the economy encourages it, what impact auditing has on the economy, why auditing exists at all, and the conditions of that existence. He writes: ... a theory of auditing should show why an economy will be better off if auditors can provide their services. He is also greatly interested in the supply and demand for audits and notes: Audit-like activities are a significant resource-consuming process of state verification which is assumed in most models of resource allocation mechanisms. An understanding of the nature of these activities is essential to understanding why one mechanism is preferred to another. Thus he seems to be more concerned with the functioning of the economy, with how and why the economy allocates some part of its resources to auditing, and with what the economy receives in return, than with how auditors allocate their resources, spend their time, or face their problems. 109

For nearly the last time this Christmas season: Merry Christmas!
Today, of course, is the great celebration of the Epiphany. The Greek word means "manifestation" or "showing"; in the Eastern part of the Church, the feast is called the Theophany,which means "manifestation of God." Unfortunately, we often find our communities focusing their attention on "the Three Kings" and miss the larger vision behind it. Certainly, the story of the magi coming to give homage to the Christ is the heart of the Gospel, but the fact behind the magi is that God has manifested Himself to the entire world in the child Christ. This was brought home to me this morning at the first Mass of the day by one of the most astute of our parishioners: a little girl sitting with her family.
This morning, our nativity scene near the front of the church was completed with the addition of the figures of the three kings. After the Opening Collect, as we were all sitting down for the first reading, this brilliant child turned to her mother and said, in a clear voice, "But I can't see Jesus!" Exactly! The Epiphany is about seeing God in Jesus.
Two things were brought home to me through our young parishioner.
First, what do I/we have to do to help her see God in Jesus? What would we do, in practical terms? We could, for example, lift her up so she can "see" better. What can I do to "see" the Christ better? Just as I might have to "stretch" to "see better", how must I stretch myself spiritually to see the Christ? How can I help others to stretch themselves? At the same time, what is obstructing the view? How might I be able to remove those obstructions? It's all about seeing God in Jesus.
Second, God wants to be a part of lives. God comes to us and is visible to us. The truly remarkable thing is that the all-powerful, all-loving God could come to us in any number of ways. God chose to come to us in the most vulnerable way imaginable: as a human child. Just we find ourselves drawn to this child, we should be finding ourselves drawn to God-With-Us ("Emmanuel" = "God with us").
Finally, we can see this spelled out in the Profession of Faith, the Creed. Nearly everyone realizes that the English word "creed" comes from the Latin word "credo": "I believe." However, not as many people know that the word credo itself comes from two other Latin words: cor (heart) and do (I give). Literally, when we pray the Creed at Mass, we are saying, "I give my heart to Almighty God. . . , I give my heart to Jesus Christ. . . , I give my heart to the Holy Spirit. . . ." Think of when we might use that expression in our daily lives: it's focus is on the relationship involved. The Creed, therefore, is not some list of theological propositions that we treat as some kind of "Christian check list". It is, rather, a cry from the heart about the relationship we put at the heart of who we are: our relationship with God.
"I can't see Jesus": Let's do all we can to remove the obstacles to our relationship with God, to stretch ourselves, and to help others do the same!

While much progress has been made in raising environmental awareness since the initial Earth Day, we are still a consumer-driven society that generates 250+ tons of garbage annually. With a vast array of new products and packaging infused into the fabric of our daily lives, the challenges are profound. In this spot we give garbage a voice. The "I Want to be" campaign educates and rewards people at the same time. Park and curbside bins come with a message reinforcing what people can gain if they recycle. The plastic bottles collected from the community/parks are recycled into a reward: benches made from the very same bottles. |

1. How can I tell if my child really needs attention deficit disorder (ADD ADHD) medications?
Experts agree that medication should be considered for ADHD children whose symptoms interfere with social, emotional, or academic life. Behavioral therapy and other non-drug treatments can be helpful for controlling ADHD symptoms, but, in most cases, experts say, these approaches are not powerful enough to replace medication.
"If your child has been diagnosed with ADHD and is struggling, he probably needs medication," says Stephen Copps , M.D., an ADHD specialist in Macon, Georgia. "Medication is the cornerstone of therapy. It's appropriate for most children with diagnosable ADHD. It is not a last resort."
Of course, it's essential that your child's diagnosis of ADHD is a reliable one. ADHD-like symptoms can be caused by a range of disorders, including anxiety, depression, and obsessive-compulsive disorder . In some cases, a child's symptoms arise from the frustration associated with having to struggle with a learning disorder.
Make sure the doctor uses the diagnostic criteria spelled out in the fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders , commonly referred to as the DSM-IV . The doctor should get input from your child's teacher as well as from you, his parents.
2 Are the medications safe?
The stimulants commonly prescribed for ADHD are considered among the safest of all psychiatric medications. "The risks of using these medications are very low," says William W. Dodson , M.D., a Denver-based psychiatrist who specializes in ADHD. "The risks involved in not treating ADHD are very high. These include academic failure, social problems, car accidents, and drug addiction."
As with many prescription drugs, of course, stimulants can interact dangerously with certain other medications. Be sure to alert the doctor about any other medications your child takes.
A 2004 study indicated that, between 1999 and 2003, 19 children died while taking either methylphenidate or amphetamine, the two most commonly prescribed stimulants. The FDA concluded that the number of deaths was no greater than would have been expected, given the large number of kids taking these medications. In addition, five of the children who died had a structural heart defect.
To Medicate, or Not to Medicate — That's the Question
"People who have existing cardiac problems are already at risk for sudden death, and it's not clear that these medicines increase that risk," says Timothy Wilens , M.D., associate professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School in Boston. "If taking a stimulant does raise their risk, it is estimated to be about the same as what it would be if the person was physically active in sports." Nonetheless, the FDA recently decided to require a label warning that these medications should not be taken by any child who has such a heart defect.
Your child's doctor should check for heart palpitations, irregular heartbeat, and fainting spells, as well as a family history of sudden cardiac death or irregular heartbeat, when giving your child a physical exam. If any of these factors are present, the patient — whether child or adult — should be evaluated by a cardiologist before taking a stimulant. In general, there is no need for apparently healthy kids to undergo an electrocardiogram or any other high-tech—and high-cost—diagnostic procedure before starting stimulant medication.
3. What about side effects?
Stimulants can cause a range of side effects , notably appetite suppression and weight loss. But these effects tend to be transient, recent studies suggest. "Eighty percent of children who take stimulants experience some appetite suppression, but this side effect usually goes away on its own within six months," says Dr. Copps. Giving children a big meal after their medication has worn off may be enough to compensate.
Stimulants can also cause headaches or lead to difficulty falling asleep. Lowering the dosage or switching to another drug may ease these problems.
In rare cases, children taking a stimulant experience visual or tactile hallucinations, or develop a tic, such as blinking uncontrollably.
" No one should have to tolerate side effects," says Larry Silver, M.D., clinical professor of psychiatry at Georgetown Medical Center in Washington, D.C. "After all, the problem can usually be solved with a simple adjustment to the medication's dosage or schedule."
4. Will medication stunt my child's growth?
Researchers continue to debate whether stimulants have any long-term effect on a child's height and weight. "There seems to be a subtle effect in the first year or two," says Dr. Wilens. "Children may be about one to three pounds lighter, and one-quarter to one-half inch shorter, than they would have been had they not taken the medication. However, long-term studies show that, even if kids do drop height and weight initially, they tend to rebound to their normal growth patterns about three years out."
Each time a child goes in for a checkup and a new prescription, the doctor should check his height and weight.
5. There are so many different drugs. How does the doctor know which to prescribe?
There is no evidence that any particular medication is best. "Treatment of ADHD should begin with an oral stimulant, either an amphetamine or a methylphenidate-based formulation," reports the November 2006 issue of Treatment Guidelines , a highly respected newsletter for physicians about prescription drugs. "None of these drugs is inherently more effective than another... The choice of a specific drug should be based on its rapidity of onset, duration of action, and effectiveness in a given patient."
Most children with ADHD do very well on one of the methylphenidate-based (Ritalin, Metadate, or Concerta) or amphetamine-based (found in Adderall and Dexedrine) drugs. If one med doesn't seem to work—or if it works only at an extremely high dosage—the doctor may prescribe another drug.

Delaware District Court rules in favor of Pfizer and Northwestern University
Singapore: The US Delaware District Court upheld Pfizer's composition of matter patent, and pain and seizure use patents covering LYRICA (pregabalin) capsules. With this decision, Pfizer will exclusively provide pregabalin as LYRICA to patients through December 30, 2018, in the US, pending generic company appeal and further litigation.
Ms Amy Schulman, executive VP and general counsel, Pfizer, said that, "The court's decision recognizes the infringement and validity of our LYRICA patents and affirms the value of LYRICA as a distinct and important innovation for patients. Protecting our intellectual property is vital to our ability to develop new medicines that save and enhance patient lives."
The court's decision affirms the strength of our patents and prevents the generic manufacturers from marketing their generic versions of LYRICA in the US before the patents expire, pending a possible appeal by the generic companies.
Pfizer and Northwestern University (NWU), which owns the patents covering the active ingredient pregabalin and the use for treating seizure disorders, filed suit in 2009 against the generic companies that applied to the FDA to market a generic version of LYRICA prior to the expiration of the patents covering pregabalin and its use.
Litigation on the same patents remains pending against other generic companies, but no trials have been scheduled in these later cases. Three separate patents are at issue in this case, including a patent covering the active ingredient pregabalin (expiring on December 30, 2018); a patent covering a method for using pregabalin to treat seizure disorders (expiring on October 8, 2013); and a patent covering methods for using pregabalin to treat pain (expiring on December 30, 2018).

ENGINES of CREATION 2.0 | Letter from the Author
March 1, 2007
- author |
- K. Eric Drexler
- year published |
- 2007
Originally published in Engines of Creation 2.0, WOWIO Books, February 2007.
Engines of Creation in 1986 inspired an explosion of interest in nanotechnology. Version 2.0 updates this classic book, including new concepts for molecular manufacturing and new uses for nanotech, such as removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and compressing it to liquid density for long-term storage.
The vision I portrayed in Engines of Creation in 1986 inspired a generation of students to direct their careers toward nanotechnology. Perhaps because it explores consequences of physics and broad principles, rather than tracking then-current technologies and trends, Engines continues to sell briskly as a book on the future of technology.
It would be difficult to understand where nanotechnology is today without understanding how we got here. Today's pattern of research and opinion bears the imprint of ideas in Engines of Creation, in part directly, but in large part through reactions, misconceptions, reactions to misconceptions, and the peculiar dance of politics, technologies, and funding that followed. I'd like to offer a sketch of this process as it looked from my perspective, then a brief view looking forward.
A Sketch of the History, 1986-2006
Engines of Creation envisioned a new landscape of future nanotechnologies, and within a few years of its publication many regarded the term "nanotechnology" as synonymous with the highest of high technologies. Many researchers were already studying the science and technology of nanoscale things (large molecules, thin coatings, advanced transistors, small particles, thin fibers, etc.) and they found that interest in their work multiplied when they described it as "nanotechnology". Partly through relabeling, partly though new initiatives, research in nanotechnologies became more coherent and grew explosively. Conferences sprang up, and companies, and government programs. Old fields found fresh vigor, and new capabilities multiplied. In 2001, the U.S. launched a multi-billion dollar National Nanotechnology Initiative (the NNI), and parallel efforts emerged across Europe and Asia, where nanotechnologies were at a similar level. The new nanotechnology establishment in government and industry projected a trillion dollar market within ten years. Critics reacted, warning that nanotechnology was opening a "Pandora's box".
From a distance, it seemed that the vision presented in Engines of Creation had broadened and grown, inspiring leaders to direct vast resources toward a revolution in manufacturing, toward developing nanoscale machinery, guided by digital data, that would join molecular building blocks to make products with atomic precision and unprecedented capabilities. A closer look showed a different reality: In the U.S., at least, molecular manufacturing became a taboo subject for a decade. The cause was a reaction to a public misconception that had gotten its start from a misreading of Engines.
In Engines of Creation, I pictured molecular manufacturing using "replicating assemblers" to build things, including more machines like themselves. I explained why sensibly designed machines of this sort would use and require specially prepared materials and be "useful but harmless". Further study showed that this approach would be needlessly complex and inefficient. There is simply no need to build tiny self-replicating machines. In a detailed, technical book, I described and analyzed desktop-scale molecular manufacturing systems that would be far simpler and more efficient. (If you like math-intensive books, I recommend it: Nanosystems: Molecular Machinery, Manufacturing, and Computation, Wiley/Interscience, 1992). But meanwhile, the earlier ideas from Engines had spread into popular culture—science fiction, movies, and video games—and taken on a life of their own. The ideas that spread fastest simplified, transmogrified, and sensationalized. Soon, "nanotechnology" was all about making so-called "nanobots"—self-replicating bug-like things that could work miracles, but would inevitably run amok, eat the world, and turn it into "gray goo." And these monster nanobugs were, of course, said to be my idea.
How did the spread of these fantasies affect policy within U.S. government circles? Not well. Not well at all. The new nanotechnologists, working with particles, coatings, and the like, couldn't deliver the promise of nanotechnology as understood by the public, and they certainly weren't about to unleash swarms of ravenous nanobugs. Quite naturally, they didn't like the popularized version of advanced nanotechnology, especially in its absurd, mutant forms, and they blamed me. From where they sat, "it" (that Drexler stuff) was a single blob of inflammatory ideas. The popular culture images were genuinely full of nonsense, and when they responded with a simple message—that "it" was all nonsense—they had some success in getting rid of false expectations and fears. This convenient idea became a consensus among the funders and elders of the burgeoning nanotechnology community.
And so it came to pass that the founding organizers of the United States National Nanotechnology Initiative took care to invite not one speaker, spend not one dime, have not one word on their website that might suggest that the idea molecular manufacturing should even be considered. Indeed, as you can see from the exchange reprinted in Appendix C, a leading establishment spokesman, Nobel Laureate Richard Smalley, denounced the idea. He insisted that molecular manufacturing was all about making things called "nanobots"—self-replicating, monstrous, bug-like things that would inevitably run amok. He of course said that they were my idea. And impossible.
My 2003 exchange with Prof. Smalley marked a milestone on the return to realism. Before it appeared in print, the establishment said that he had refuted the molecular physics of molecular manufacturing. After, it became plain that he had refuted only absurd ideas from the popular press, and had nothing persuasive to say about the actual technical concepts. Vocal rejection fell out of fashion and young researchers found a new freedom to speak of ambitious objectives.
A second milestone came in 2006: an independent, high-level, scientifically grounded report on the subject. Congress had directed the National Research Council of the National Academy of Sciences to review the performance of the NNI. A committee including experts in physics, chemistry, and engineering met, invited and questioned experts on molecular manufacturing, and subjected the concepts and analysis in Nanosystems to careful, technical review. They examined current understanding of atomistic control, error rates, speed of operation, thermodynamic efficiency, and so on, and note that these "can be calculated in theory, but not predicted with confidence." The report closes with a call for funding "experimental demonstrations that link to abstract models and guide long-term vision."
Finally, after 20 years, a competent committee had examined the evidence, considered the science, and offered an informed judgment.
During these years, despite U.S.-centered confusion, a tide of nanotechnologies has continued to rise. There have been many results: Microelectronics became nanoelectronics. Computer power has grown 10,000 fold, enabling ever larger and more accurate design and modeling of molecular systems. Biological molecular machines have been studied and harnessed; simple artificial molecular machines have been designed and synthesized; advanced molecular machines have been designed and simulated. Designing and making new proteins developed from an idea to a task that can be completed in weeks. DNA strands have been designed that fold and link to form million-atom, three-dimensional structures that can be designed and made in a single workday.
Meanwhile, the Soviet Union fell, Europe expanded, China awoke, and the US stood as the unchallenged military power, while a few decades-old spacecraft continued their endless fall into interstellar space. Revolutionary advances in space continued to await a revolution in spacecraft fabrication. Revolutionary advances in machine intelligence continued to await new ideas. As for social intelligence, institutions that aid factual judgment (on climate change, molecular manufacturing, etc.) lagged far behind mass media that treat dispute as a sport. Computers, once rare (Engines began with a typewriter and was delivered on paper) multiplied and linked through networks to form a new world of worlds. A hypertext publishing system—the World Wide Web—emerged, growing explosively in size and abilities, reshaping society. But they continued to lack what Engines describes as crucial: readers of a controversial document can't easily see the best-rated criticisms, and so critics can't respond where it would matter most. And so the Web presents knowledge and nonsense almost as equals, and amplifies both. At both the surface and depths of the computational world, there's a need for new structures.
Looking Forward
Progress in nanotechnologies has created many powerful capabilities, and I think that the time is ripe to combine them to move molecular engineering to a new level. DNA engineering builds precise, million-atom frameworks; engineered proteins can bind to precise locations on these frameworks; and proteins can bind other components—strong and stiff, electrically or chemically active—and biology shows that proteins themselves can serve as construction machinery.
Taken together, these developments have opened the door to a new domain of engineering, and through it to a path that leads, step by useful step, to advanced molecular manufacturing.
Technical studies indicate that nanofactories, ranging to desktop scale and larger, will be able to convert simple chemical feedstocks into large, atomically precise products cleanly, inexpensively, and with moderate energy consumption. They indicate that a 10 kilogram factory will be able to produce 10 kilograms of products in hours or less—a stack of billion-processor laptops, a package containing a trillion cell-sized medical devices, or a roll containing hundreds of square meters of tough, flexible stuff that converts sunlight to electric power. It seems that raw materials will be the main cost of production. At a dollar per kilogram (a typical price for industrial feedstocks today) the solar-electric material would cost about one cent per square meter, and the computers would cost about a dime. Shipping and handling extra.
It may be surprising that a nanofactory could make so wide a range of products. Manufacturing machines today are specialized: plastic-molding machines shape particular kinds of plastic, metal-cutting machines shape particular kinds of metal, and so on. But imagine what people 50 years ago would have thought if someone said that a single machine could replace a typewriter, a television, a drawing board, a calculator, a darkroom, a record-player, a pinball machine, and a library. This notion wouldn't have passed the laugh test then, but today we call these machines "computers". They can do all this because their tiny, fast-cycling parts can be directed to form complex patterns of the elementary building blocks of information, bits. Likewise, molecular manufacturing systems will use tiny, fast-cycling parts, but these can be directed to form complex patterns of the elementary building blocks of matter. As with computers, the effects on the world will be far beyond what anyone can now imagine.
I'd like to describe one that Engines didn't mention, a system that could address global warming. Molecular machinery can be used to sort gas molecules to extract carbon dioxide from air. This requires substantial energy—the process compresses a gas—but it can be done with good thermodynamic efficiency. To remove 100 parts per million of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as a whole, compressing it to liquid density for long-term storage, would require several terawatts of power for 10 years. This could be provided by solar arrays with the total area of a square roughly 200 kilometers on a side. By providing the necessary molecular machinery and dropping the cost of the arrays, molecular manufacturing can make it affordable to remove and store the excess carbon dioxide that has accumulated since the first industrial revolution.
Abilities of this magnitude may arrive sooner than most would expect. The last 50 years have shown the incredible dynamism of technologies in the microworld. While cars, aircraft, houses, and furniture have changed only moderately in their capabilities and costs, DNA and microelectronic technologies have exploded, expanding their basic capabilities by factors of more than a billion. The developments leading to molecular manufacturing are of a similar sort and will share this dynamism. Past a certain threshold, however, these developments will burst forth from the microworld to transform technologies on a human and even planetary scale. No realistic view of the future can omit this prospect.

Roxana Moayedi, Associate Professor of Sociology (Program Chair)
Konia Kollehlon, Associate Professor of Sociology
Roberta Goldberg, Professor of Sociology
Sociology is the scientific study and interpretation of group life. It provides a human perspective on the study of urban life, family patterns and relationships, work, and organizational structures. Gender, race, social class, social change, and current social issues are the focus of research and analysis.
The primary goal of this program is to enable students to develop a "sociological imagination," giving them the ability to connect individual private experience with social structure through concrete experiences and a strong theoretical perspective. Teaching this deceptively simple insight, that people are affected by social forces and that social institutions are affected by their members, is the major focus of the discipline.
Majoring in sociology prepares students for graduate school and a wide variety of careers, such as social psychology, social research, social work, public administration, business, education, market research, law, and community planning.
A sociology major and minor are offered to students in the College of Arts and Sciences. The Sociology Program also supports the criminal justice and human relations majors.

Stated otherwise, as a double major in Sociology and Criminal Justice, you can not use a Criminal Justice course (that is required for the Criminal Justice major) as one of the six additional courses needed to satisfy the requirements for Sociology. However, Sociology majors who do not declare a double major may use up to two Criminal Justice courses as part of their six additional Sociology course requirements, if no other courses outside of Sociology are used. These courses must be approved by the Chair of the Sociology Program. Also, students who double major in Sociology and Criminal Justice will select either SOCY 499 Senior Seminar or CJUS 499 Senior Seminar in Criminal Justice as the senior seminar requirement for both majors.

The intrigue of Checkmate is enhanced on "Smallville" when the Black King appears to discover and destroy the Blur.
Ready to drop the "love" bomb on Clark, Lois prepares for a rooftop date where the relationship will be cemented with gifts of telescopes and unnecessary uses of the word "love."
The couple get their pre-game on with an impromptu make-out session in the Daily Planet elevator, only to find a new, overzealous editor pitting them against each other for one reporter job. Seems ex-DA Ray Sacks has worked his mojo to engineer an extremely early exit from prison, and now it's up to the dynamic duo to find out why. Oh that Franklin… always with the ambitions of becoming Editor-in-Chief.
Everybody gets to working their sources for help: Lois leaves 57 voicemails for the Blur, Clark cajoles Chloe into finding out Ray's new hideout… all while Ray lets Metropolis know that he'll pay $1 million for a photo of the Blur. Lois decides to confront Ray on this, who decides to sic his bodyguard on her, which causes the Blur to dispatch of him quickly, causing a random punk kid to take a photo of the Blur and upsetting Lois in the process. The good news is that Lois "sees" the Blur for the first time… sort of.
Clark only saved Lois by chance. When she blurted out that he had answered one of her voicemails, he swiped her phone to see who's been portraying him without his knowledge. While Chloe worked on the phone, both Lois and Clark go undercover at Ray's welcome home party where Lois pops out of a giant cake and proceeds to punch an eavesdropping Clark, who was finding out the punk kid very nearly collected on the million dollar bounty… that is, until Lois' diversion knocked the phone to the floor. Phone promptly destroyed, the kid is whisked away to a room where his memories are drained in an attempt to discover the Blur's identity. It's also our first chance to meet the Black King, Maxwell Lord (hey, it's Gil Bellows!) as he works for Checkmate in the quest to eliminate the Kandorians.
After the party fiasco, Franklin Stern fires both Lois and Clark, and they both huff off in separate directions, leading to her abduction by Maxwell and the subsequent draining of memories. Thanks to Chloe, Clark has a lead on her location… AND that of criminals captured by the Blur, released by Ray and also being drained of memories. Clark proceeds to whack Ray back to the stone age and rush to save Lois, who is fighting hard to keep her knowledge of the Blur from slipping away. Using his mighty power of HULK SMASH, Clark destroys the machine but misses catching Maxwell. That's okay, because the Red Queen takes him away in luxury.
In the end, Chloe reveals to Clark that it was Zod playing Lois the entire time, which leads to the Blur ending all contact with Lois forever and allowing for Clark to be the man Lois wants him to be… but is he strong enough to be her man?

ATLANTA (AP) — Freddie Freeman drove in three runs with three hits, including the first of three Atlanta home runs Monday night, and the Braves beat Cole Hamels and the Philadelphia Phillies 7-5 on opening day.
Dan Uggla and Justin Upton, making his Braves debut, also homered for Atlanta, which led National League teams with 49 in spring training.
Hamels (0-1) struggled in his first opening day start. He gave up five runs on seven hits, including the three homers, with five strikeouts and one walk in five innings. The three homers allowed matched his high from last season.
The Braves brought out some of their past stars for pregame ceremonies. Dale Murphy was the honorary captain, newly retired Chipper Jones threw out the first pitch — firing a strike to Brian McCann — and Phil Niekro was handed a microphone and yelled "Play ball!"
Jones retired after last season, ending a career that lasted almost two decades — all with the Braves. "I'm missing it today, but I won't miss it tomorrow," Jones said as he sat in the Braves' dugout before the game.
Tim Hudson gave up six hits and three runs in 4 1-3 innings. Hudson had a 4-0 lead before Chase Utley led off the fourth with a homer and drove in two runs with a bases-loaded single in the fifth. Utley tripled in the seventh for his third hit and scored on Ryan Howard's groundout.
Luis Avilan (1-0) took over for Hudson and pitched 1 2-3 scoreless innings. Craig Kimbrel pitched a perfect ninth inning for his first save.
Freeman led the Braves with seven home runs in spring training. Hitting cleanup in Atlanta's new-look lineup which includes outfielders Justin Upton and B.J. Upton, Freeman gave Atlanta the lead with his two-run homer into the Braves' bullpen in the first inning. The two-out homer drove in Jason Heyward, who walked.
Uggla led off the second inning with the Braves' second homer into the left-field seats. Justin Upton added a line-drive homer to left-center in the fifth.
Upton's homer came after Utley's bases-loaded single off Hudson in the top of the fifth cut Atlanta's lead to 4-3.
Atlanta scored two runs off Chad Durbin in the sixth. Durbin walked Uggla, who moved to third on Chris Johnson's double. Gerald Laird added a run-scoring single and Johnson scored on pinch-hitter Reed Johnson's double-play grounder.
John Mayberry Jr. doubled off Jordan Walden in the eighth, moved to third on Walden's wild pitch, and scored on a single by Eric Kratz.
Notes: Attendance was 51,456, a sellout. … SS Jimmy Rollins made his 13th consecutive opening day start, the longest active streak in the majors. He passed Larry Bowa (1970-81) for the Phillies' longest streak by a shortstop. … The Braves had no update on LHP Jonny Venters, who opened the season on the 15-day disabled list with a sprained elbow and was examined Monday by Dr. James Andrews. … The teams are off Tuesday. Philadelphia RHP Roy Halladay will face Atlanta LHP Paul Maholm on Wednesday night. … Hamels ended Halladay's streak of 10 straight opening-day starts. … Former Braves manager Bobby Cox, sitting near the Atlanta dugout, drew an ovation when he was shown on the video board. Cox stood and waved to the fans.

I did this sweater up in about one hour. Everything…from start to finish. The reason it was so easy and quick to make was because I wanted it a bit oversized, so I didn't have to worry about getting it perfectly fitted. I also based the pattern off of another 'gently' worn sweater I have lying around, so there was no guess work involved.

Dreamy Lemon Bars
I got this recipe from my mom & grew up eating these yummy treats! It's very simple. 8 ingredients. You mix the first 4 ingredients, spread it in a pan & bake the crust. Mix the last 4 ingredients, pour that on top of the crust & bake it. Done.
1 CUP butter
2 1/4 CUP flour
1/2 CUP powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon lemon rind
1/4 CUP lemon juice
4 eggs, beaten
2 CUPS sugar
17 comments:
Do you know how much my hubby would love me if I made him these bars?! He HATES chocolate, so it's hard to find a 'treat' he enjoys! (that doesn't include jalepenos!)
I might be able to get away with lots of stuff if I put a plate of these lemon bars in front of him!
Thanks for sharing your recipe!

Today we have word of Tecmo Bowl Throwback. Advertisement The new game is another remake of Tecmo Super Bowl, the early 90s 16-bit classic. The first remake, Tecmo Bowl Kickoff, was released for the Nintendo DS in 2008. Coming very soon — spring 2010 — is Throwback.Here's an old-school look at the game, for comparison. Tecmo provided the bullet points: Advertisement -Online Multiplayer: Find your old buddies online and challenge them to matches just like back in the day -2D + 3D Graphics: Experience all new 3D graphics with the ability to switch to the classic 2D style! -Customizable Teams and Rosters: Play as any of the 32 teams with customizable team names and rosters in full seasons -Online Leaderboards: Compare your stats in a wide array of online leaderboards -Classic Game Modes: Battle it out with your friends and kick off a game in Preseason, Season or Pro Bowl modesThe game is being developed by Swedish development studio Southend Interactive. And while at least one screenshot released today may serve as ample reminder that this game is being published by Tecmo.... ... the company affirms that the game will be rated E for everyone. Advertisement Sponsored Tecmo Bowl Throwback is just the latest of the arcade-style football games released for PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade. Late last year, EA released Madden NFL Arcade, a downloadable version of the company's Madden NFL 10 for the Wii. There may only be one football video game released on disc these days, but for download, you're getting choices.Reply140 repliesLeave a reply

Third Time's A Charm With Madagascar 3
Review of Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted
Show-stopping fun
If you were dreading taking your kids to the third animated Madagascar film – you are in for a surprise! Not only is this the most hilarious and show-stopping movie of the bunch, it has enough adult humor in it to make you laugh like a kid again. Witty, sharp and scandalously silly, this kids' movie is a rare treat for everyone in the whole family.
A new adventure
Once again, Alex the Lion (Ben Stiller), Marty the Zebra (Chris Rock), Gloria the Hippo (Jada Pinkett Smith) and Melman the Giraffe (David Schwimmer) are stranded and desperate to return to their home in New York Central Zoo. But this time around, they end up in Europe where they go undercover as circus performers in order to sneak a ride back to the United States.
With a cruel animal control officer on their tail, a surprisingly romance between King Julien and an enormous tricycle-riding bear, and a pile of pesky penguin antics – Madagascar 3 is packed with adventure, action and three-ring excitement from beginning to end.
Can't get enough Afro Circus!
The snappy, fizzy, candy-colored circus scenes are breathtakingly beautiful, not to mention a whole lot of hip-shaking, high-flying fun. The highlight of the entire film is a toss-up between the love scenes between King Julien and his tricycle-riding bear and Marty's hilarious attempt to create his own act for the show which he calls, "Afro Circus."
Even if you are a reluctant singer, we'd be surprised if you don't walk out of the theatre singing your heart out to Afro Circus. Booyah!

Justin Bieber's mother has urged fans not to condemn the singer for his bad behaviour and asked them to pray for him instead.
The teenage pop star was back in the news this month after he was accused of pelting a neighbour's house with eggs, and his rapper friend Lil Za was arrested on suspicion of drug possession following a police raid on the singer's California home.
Bieber's mother, Pattie Mallette, has now spoken out about her son's troubles, insisting the public should not criticize the 19 year old if he appears to be struggling.
In quotes published by Britain's The Sun newspaper, Mallette says, "I think so many people go into the entertainment industry with amazing Christian roots and they go in with the right morals and they get influenced somehow... I ask that people keep me and Justin in their minds. I pray for him every day... If Justin's struggling, don't kick him when he's down or condemn him - pray for him."
The news comes just a day after Bieber reportedly spent a massive $75,000 during a night out at a strip club in Miami, Florida.

Pennacook (pĕnˈəkŏk) [key], group of Native North Americans of the Algonquian branch of the Algonquian-Wakashan linguistic stock (see Native American languages). Although of the Eastern Woodlands cultural area (see under Natives, North American), they depended to a large extent on seafood. In the early 17th cent. they occupied NE Massachusetts, SE New Hampshire, and SW Maine. They then numbered some 2,000, but by 1674 smallpox and wars had reduced them to some 1,250. Most of the Pennacook remained neutral in King Philip's war (1675), but when 200 of them were treacherously seized (1676), the remainder fled to Canada and to the West; the survivors of the western group settled with the Mahican. The Pennacook in Canada first settled near Quebec, but in 1700 this group moved to St. Francis, where they joined the exiled Abnaki. The two tribes became bitter enemies of the British. There is no longer a distinct Pennacook population in the United States.

ooooh child. patti smith is my girl. i found her when i was 14 and angry at nothing in particular but angry nonetheless, and listened to Horses over and over in my tape player. she is an american hero, no doubt, and a brilliant artist. i saw her play when i was 15 with my mama at the Bridge Benefit Concert. she was badass. i soooooo NEED THIS BOOK.
and baby, fashion is art! so don't ever feel bad about liking outfits. it's like a walking painting that you get to repaint every day! - January 15, 2011 at 5:23 PM

I am going to start reading this book TOMORROW. It has been sitting on my shelf waiting for like a month now. After reading this amazing post, I AM SOLD.
You are such a master descriptor Heather, and from these quotes it sounds as though in Patti Smith you have found a kindred spirit in that respect… among others! - January 15, 2011 at 11:14 PM

Honey, I think you could describe just about anything and make it sound like the most awesome thing in the world, even if it wasn't. Which this book is. Awesome, I mean, if only because of how lyrical her language is. I've never listened to Patti Smith and this seems like a crime. But I was only born in 1990, so I'm not guilty? Pfft, let me just go listen now.

Scratch that, I have listened to Patti Smith. I just didn't know it. The best part? I love her. The song I picked brings back memories of driving with my mom when I was three or four, listening to the radio with the windows down :) Thank you for prompting this memory, girl.

Ah, I have this book in the pile of "waiting-to-be-reads" and you just pumped it up the heaven high. Move over "Confederate General From Big Sur", "Room" and "Zen Running". (Or at least to the side. I like to have more than one going at any given time and I think I'm going to have to finish "Room", it's so nerve-recking ;) I knew it was going to be awesome, but having this insight from you has made it more so.
Thank you dearie! - January 16, 2011 at 4:14 PM

Heather- that was one bad-ass book review! I have read other things about this book, but only your post made me actually want to read the book. I love writing with imagery, throw in a love story and I'm there :) Also, thank you for comment about liking outfits. I just actually did a post about how I find my interest in fashion sometimes embarrassing but lovelies like you make me feel like its okay.

Yes! Patti , my punk rock goddess. I met her a few years back in Santa Cruz after one of the best shows of my life..wow..I asked her to sign the tshirt I just bought, and I wept into tears..I have never done that before to any rock star..well, if I met Neil Young I would probably barf, faint , wake up , then cry..all in that order.
great post moon! - January 17, 2011 at 10:41 PM

seems like a rad book! i don't know much about her but after reading this post i'm definately intrigued. speaking of rock biographies, after watching "fallen angel" i've been wanting to read one about gram parsons. i haven't read too many of these types of books, but i think the gram one would be worth it as well.

What a beautifully written and full of excitement post! I love your fervor for things that make your heart beat and your soul exist! You are a passionate, fired up, fun loving soul! I think I wanna read this now! :D
- January 19, 2011 at 2:29 PM
I came across this post by chance and I must say that I completely agree with all of my heart. What you've said about the book, about Patti Smith, it all resonates so absolutely. When I put the book down she was apart of me, and always will be.

Hi Ryan, It looks like maybe some of the files in the new iPhone 4 zip file might be corrupt? For example HiddenFalls is only half there? thanks - and awesome work as always! |
Ryan |
Hi Leslie! Check the 1024 x 1024 images. They are sized specifically for the iPad. Thanks! |
Lesley |
Any chance of formatting some of your back catalogue of artwork for the iPad> I just got one and it's crying out for some DBification! |

Ryan, you added the iPhone 4 resolution really in no time. I can say perfect timing, thank you very much. |

Thanks! I've been waiting on files in this resolution for a while now for my Incredible. Going with the Droid resolution just isn't quite the same. |

Thanks. Is it just me or is the watermark on the 960x800 significantly larger than on normal images? |

The latest news from academia, regulators
research labs and other things of interest
Posted: Jun 19, 2013 | |
Organic electronics: A faster way to move electrons |
(Nanowerk News) Replacing traditional rigid silicon wafers with semiconductors made from flexible polymers would herald an age of advanced, wearable electronics. Switching to these semiconductors, known as organic field-effect transistors (OFETs), would also reduce manufacturing costs significantly. However, most plastic materials have trouble moving electrons and their polar opposites positively charged empty holes inside semiconductor lattices with sufficient speed for electronic amplification. | |
Prashant Sonar and co-workers from the A*STAR Institute of Materials Research and Engineering in Singapore have now developed a polymer for solution-based OFET processing that has inherently high carrier mobility and extraordinary air stability ("A fluorenone based low band gap solution processable copolymer for air stable and high mobility organic field effect transistors "). Unlike silicon, polymers are difficult to pack into crystalline structures containing regular pathways for charge carriers. The teams polymer, however, has specifically designed hydrogen bond interactions that create ordered networks for transporting electrons and holes. | |
Most polymers used in OFETs have a donoracceptor arrangement of conjugated molecules to enhance the mobility of charge carriers. Using special catalysts, chemists can link together small units of electron-rich and electron-poor aromatic molecules to form an alternating chain of block co-polymers. Sonar and co-workers investigated whether fluorenone an inexpensive and chemically stable molecule with three fused aromatic rings and a central carbonyl unit could act as a new type of acceptor block for OFET polymers. | |
The researchers anticipated that the unusual polarity of fluorenone's carbonyl unit might help it stick to aromatic hydrogen atoms and improve solid-state packing. To test this concept, they made a co-polymer consisting of fluorenone and an aromatic donor known as diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP), a compound designed to be compatible with large-scale solution processing. The resulting block co-polymer had exceptional thermal stability: it melted only at external temperatures over 300 °C. | |
When Sonar and co-workers used a technique called spin-coating to convert the fluorenoneDPP co-polymer into an OFET device, they observed impressive amplification characteristics and one of the highest hole mobilities ever recorded for solution-processed transistors. Their tests also showed that this material retained its valuable electronic attributes without decomposing in air a problem that plagued earlier generations of OFETs. Optical measurements revealed the basis of this high stability: the fluorenone units make electrons in the co-polymers highest energy states less accessible and therefore less susceptible to air-based impurities. | |
Fluorenone is a commercially available, cheap starting material, which has never been studied for OFET use before, says Sonar. The team is now investigating how to utilize it as a novel building block for high-performance organic electronic applications by carefully engineering chemical improvements onto its molecular framework. |
