"Chemists accustomed to traditional quantum mechanics will applaud and gain significantly from this rather instructive, thorough and obviously written exposition of density practical concept: its foundation, innovations, phrases, implementation, and function in diversified functions. clients of DFT for constitution, strength, and molecular estate computations, in addition to response mechanism experiences, are guided to the optimal offerings of the best tools. good done!"
Paul von Ragu?chleyer
"A conspicuous gap within the computational chemist's library is well stuffed by means of this booklet, which supplies a wide-ranging and pragmatic view of the subject.[...It] may still justifiably develop into the favourite textual content at the topic for practitioners who target to take advantage of DFT to resolve chemical problems."
J. F. Stanton, J. Am. Chem. Soc.
"The authors' objective is to steer the chemist via easy theoretical and similar technical points of DFT at an easy-to-understand theoretical point. They be successful admirably."
P. C. H. Mitchell, Appl. Organomet. Chem.
"The authors have performed a great carrier to the chemical group. [...] A Chemist's advisor to Density sensible conception is precisely what the name indicates. it's going to be a useful resource of perception and information for plenty of chemists utilizing DFT ways to unravel chemical problems."

2 (see also Baerends and Gritsenko, 1997). 2 The Coulomb Hole From equations (2-17) and (2-21) it is obvious that the Coulomb hole must be normalized to zero, i. e. the integral over all space contains no charge: r r r ∫ h C ( r1; r2 ) dr2 = 0. (2-25) This makes good physical sense since for electrons of unlike spin the probability of finding an electron of spin σ anywhere in space is of course the total number of electrons of this spin, i. , Nσ. This result is independent of the positions of electrons with spin σ' ≠ σ.
Nσ. This result is independent of the positions of electrons with spin σ' ≠ σ. Also, there is no need for a self-interaction correction. The Coulomb hole will be negative and largest at the position of the reference electron since it originates from the 1/r12 electrostatic interaction which keeps electrons apart. Since there is a finite probability that two electrons of different spin (and approximated r r as volume-less point charges) can be found within the same volume element h C ( r1; r1 ) has no predetermined value at vanishing r r r interelectronic distance, unlike the Fermi hole which for r2 → r1 approaches −ρ( r1 ) .
If we want to make the distinction from the Fermi correlation, the electrostatic effects are known under the label Coulomb correlation. It can easily be shown that the HF approximation discussed in Chapter 1 does include the Fermi-correlation, but completely neglects the Coulomb part. To demonstrate this, we analyze the Hartree-Fock pair density for a two-electron system with the two spatial orbitals φ1 and φ2 and spin functions σ1 and σ2 2 r r r r ρHF 2 (x1 , x 2 ) = det {φ1 (r1 )σ1 (s1 ) φ2 (r2 )σ2 (s2 )} (2-11) which after squaring the expanded determinants becomes r 2 r 2 r r 2 2 ρHF 2 (x1 , x2 ) = φ1 (r1 ) φ2 (r2 ) σ1 (s1 ) σ2 (s2 ) r r +φ1 (r2 )2 φ2 (r1 )2 σ1 (s2 )2 σ2 (s1 )2 r r r r −2 φ1 (r1 ) φ2 (r1 ) φ1 (r2 ) φ2 (r2 ) σ1 (s1 ) σ2 (s1 ) σ1 (s2 ) σ2 (s2 ) (2-12) r The spin-independent probability of finding one electron at r1 and the other simulr taneously at r2 is obtained by integrating over the spins.

A female geography professor has sued officials at UNC-Chapel Hill, claiming gender discrimination and retaliation for raising concerns of sex and racial discrimination at the university.
The faculty member, Altha Cravey, filed a complaint this week in Middle District of U.S. District Court against the university and three administrators — Chancellor Carol Folt, College of Arts and Sciences Dean Kevin Guskiewicz and Geography Department Chair Michael Emch. She is seeking back wages and benefits, promotion, compensatory damages and attorney's fees.
She claims she has been denied promotion to full professor while male professors with similar or lesser credentials and experience have been promoted. A university spokeswoman declined to comment on the lawsuit Friday.
Cravey is an associate professor of geography at UNC, where she has been on the faculty for 23 years. Her teaching includes courses on globalization, migration, trans-nationality, feminist geography, Latino studies and Latin American geography. She is also an activist and a frequent presence at student protests on campus, where she has been a critic of Folt, the UNC Board of Governors and UNC President Margaret Spellings.
"Dr. Cravey has been a vocal advocate for the equal and fair treatment of women and minority faculty and students within the UNC system throughout her career at UNC-CH," the lawsuit said. "Dr. Cravey has frequently exercised her right to free speech and free expression by speaking publicly at rallies and meetings, by publishing op-ed articles and letters, and, at times, by bringing her concerns directly to officials of UNC-CH and Department employees."
She first received tenure in 2000 and applied for promotion to full professor in 2005, when she was denied, the lawsuit said. Later, she was removed as chair of a diversity committee within the department in 2014.
The year before in a meeting of UNC department chairs, the lawsuit said, Emch discussed a "difficult problem" he was having with a female associate professor who had "no research agenda" yet sought a promotion to full professor. The suit claims that Emch also said a female faculty member was encouraging graduate students to complain about "perceived inequities" and that it posed a problem for his leadership.

Each year, the QUEUC editorial board, consisting of senior undergraduate students, recent graduates, alumni, and professors, will review all submissions, and select which essays to publish. Not all submissions are guaranteed acceptance – the editorial board expects to publish between 12 and 25 essays per year. As the final publication must be considered as a whole, essays will be evaluated for both their individual academic quality, and their ability to fit in the larger work. Selected authors take part in an editing workshop, during which they are paired with a QUEUC editor, who guides them to revise and refine their argument for the publication. This unique opportunity is designed to guide undergraduate scholars through the academic process of editing, collaborating on, and publishing research, which many authors will be doing for the first time.
The result of the publication process is an electronic online publication in PDF format, as well as a physical printed version. The publication will receive professional typographic and layout design at print standard to produce a final document of the highest quality that contributing authors can display in their academic portfolio.
The publication workshop will take place over the following periods:
March 23rd, 2018: The QUEUC editorial team will meet within the first week after the conference to discuss essays that they most enjoyed during the conference. Each will select 1-3 essays that they would like to edit, and will contact the authors.
Selected authors have until March 30th to decide whether or not they would like to proceed with the publication process.
Over the course of several weeks (March 30-April 7) , authors will work directly with their primary editor, who will be a senior undergraduate from Bishop's University's English Department. The editor will provide the author with feedback on their research essay including on structure, rhetoric, language, formatting. Authors and editors will establish an editing schedule with up to three rounds of editing to revise the paper into its best form for publication. Secondary editors, consisting of alumni and professors may also provide feedback to incorporate into the paper over the course of the workshop.
After the initial edits, the authors will have a period of time (April 7-14) to revise the edits made to their essay.
Following this, the editors will have another period of time (April 14-18) to do a second round of revisions.
Final revisions by the author will be done from April 18-23rd. On April 24th, the final essays are due to the main editors.
The 2018 Publication will be available on June 1, 2018.
For any questions about the publication, please contact us at: email@example.com.

What is HDR (High Dynamic Range) and why do you want it?
HDR creates pictures in the same way that the human eye does. It makes videos come to life with shadows and shading details we have never seen on other displays.
High Dynamic Range (HDR) is Coming, but How Will it Impact Your Business?
What is HDR? In simple terms, most would agree that it is an expansion of the contrast of an image and the display coupled with a significant elevation of overall image brightness.

Our hotel room was not ready when we arrived in Portland. We decided to grab a bite to eat while waiting. Happy we stopped in Henry's. They have an excellent selection of craft beers. The food was very good as well. I had fish and chips, and my husband had the fish tacos. Both dishes were yummy. The server was friendly and helpful. I would definitely go back.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'iMac' started by RedlegsFan, Jul 17, 2016.
Title says it all. What configuration do you buy and where from. $2,000 even to spend.
You haven't said what you'll be using it for, nor have you mentioned which size you're going for or where you live.
Anyhow, if I had to buy an iMac for a budget of 2,000, I'd go with a refurbished model:
Ideally, I'd go with an i7 processor and a 256GB SSD drive. However, they're slightly over the budget limit, hence the less powerful option above. If you could spend 279 USD extra, then this would be a great option: http://www.apple.com/shop/product/G...z-quad-core-intel-core-i7-with-retina-display
Refurbished model, m395 8gb ram i5 256gb ssd or 2tb fusion.
Basic use. Some photo editing. I'm in Ohio.
I was really just curious to see how others would use this budget amount.
I'm most likely grabbing a model from B&H photo that's 1,999 new.
2TB fusion
8GB Ram
The 380 really isn't the best. Are you against refurbished models certified by Apple? If not, then I would recommend the one I linked to which is the same @AlexGraphicD described. If you want new, then yeah, your options aren't as good. But for your needs, it might very well be sufficient.
What's the negatives on the 380, for those using the machine for mainly basic use?
And no, I'm not against refurbished. But buying new from B&H photo means I don't have to pay sales tax, which would be over $100.
Ah, I understand.
For basic use there are likely no big disadvantages. The problem is that the GPU has to push a lot of pixels due to the screen being 5k and the weaker the GPU, the worse the overall performance. The 380 is one of the weakest cards in Apple's offerings, if not the weakest. How much it'll impact you on simple day-to-day tasks, I wouldn't know. I have the m395 and I do notice some lag here and there.
Really? That sucks to hear...id like to know what do you use your Mac for mainly? Web browsing or heavy professional video editing and such?
And when does the lag appear most when you open a lot of programs at the same time?
I bought the i7/395/2TB to replace my old Mac Pro. I use it for professional work, mainly graphic design, illustration, development, and video editing. I notice that my iMac sometimes throttles when I work on larger files or use certain PS brushes (on big files) or apply filters. Just a few days ago, I had to restart my computer because even after closing Photoshop (the only heavy-duty app open at the time) pretty much every other opened app would stutter/be unresponsive.
It's not a disaster by any means and it doesn't happen frequently, but yeah, I was a little shocked. Other scenarios where I sense some lag is when I use Mission Control (though that doesn't bother me much at all).
On the whole, however, I'm quite happy with the iMac. I knew when I bought it that it wasn't going to be a powerhouse like my old Mac Pro, but I also didn't want to buy the totally overpriced and outdated 2013 nMP, so the iMac felt like the only alternative within the Apple realm (Hackintoshes excluded).
I don't like the prospect of buying a 2k iMac and being laggy and unresponsive. As I see it the best option right now would be the maxed out model but I may as well wait for the next upcoming update in cpu and gpu hoping that it will be faster and better than the current line.
It's still a great performer. I didn't mean to sound as negative about the computer as I might have come across. It's just that I paid close to 3k for the second best model they currently offer and I paid about the same price for my Mac Pro which might be slower but at least doesn't throttle (and we're talking about a only slightly upgraded 1.1 model with a better GPU and SSD)... It served me well for 7 years. I wish they did these kind of sturdy powerhouses today. Alas, I know that we (professional users) aren't of great interest to Apple anymore.
So yeah, if I were to buy an iMac (as my work machine) again, I'd not opt for second best but pick the top-of-the-line model instead and fully maximise it. Unless, of course, they updated the Mac Pro.
You'd max it out even if you didn't do heavy video editing? I do graphic design too and casual video editing for short videos on YouTube. Nothing intensive or heavy.
I read a lot that the new rumored gpu models won't benefit the casual user other than the 4K video editors and gamers both of which I'm not and won't be in the near future....if that's the case then I'll go with the current models the refurb ones especially.
Also I don't know if the TB3 and USB 3 ports are going to offer me any significant benefit other than the good feeling that I own the latest cool technology ports...
As long as a mid-tier or slightly above model could handle all that which I throw at it, I wouldn't max it out or buy the top model. However, even for what I do currently, the "almost" top model does have the occasional hiccup. Also, I tend to not buy a new machine ever year but rather keep one machine for at least 5 years, sometimes more.
I will be doing 4k video soon and my video editing workload will increase in the not-too-distant future, so I'd want my computer to be able to handle that without choking too much. I'm not all that much of a gamer, either, but I do game occasionally, so that'd be nice if the machine had decent support for that.
Yes I also plan to keep it for at least five years. My first iMac is alsmost six years old and I wouldn't buy a new one if I hadn't move in the US from Europe.
So I'll probably wait for the next update since I don't have the budget yet to pull the trigger in any model anyways.
That's definitely a sensible decision. I'm very interested to see what configurations the new models will have. I have a good feeling as the new AMD cards - should they stick with AMD - are pretty decent this time around.
I'd opt for a refurb or B&H Video. I'd wait for black friday, as they'll have some really good sales.
Wait for the new models to be announced. Then you can decide if you want a 2016 model, or the closeout deal on a 2015. Always check the AppleInsider as a reference: http://prices.appleinsider.com
There could be some extra good deals on 2015 closeouts for Black Friday.
BTW, OP never stated it had to 27" iMac. A 21" 4K iMac could be an alternative especially since we have no other technical requirements listed. Any modern iMac can run Mail, Safari and other basic stuff. It is when you want to games, edit 4K video, that you likely need to be using a 27" 5K with i7CPU, 395GPU, a 512 SSD for boot/OS/apps/caches (1TB SSD if you much have storage inside instead of external library drives), and at least 16MB of memory.
Always go for a refurb with an SSD.
I got a 2013 model for far under that price, worked amazing, never an issue cosmetic or internal.
Does B & H typically have Black Friday deals on iMacs ? I might do this if this is expected. I'm ready to buy, now just waiting for just the right time (either upgraded iMacs or a really great deal)
Yes they do. It may not be the exact configuration you would normally choose, but they typically offer some nice deals on some decent configurations.
Buy whichever processor and graphics you actually want, as those are not upgradable.
You can skim on memory and HDD/SSD as those can be upgraded later.
Can someone tell me if the following applications are multithreaded or not? Is there any benefit to the i7 if you don't use multithreaded programs at all?
Final Cut Pro
Affinity Photo
Affinity Designer
Premier Pro (I don't use it just being curious)
You can add memory on 27" iMac, not on 21" iMac. To swap out HD/SSD on either you have to open the case and that likely violates warranty. Get a 512 SSD so there is plenty of room for boot/OS/apps/caches and then put large libraries of photos, videos, documents...etc. on external HDs......without opening an iMac case.
Well, okay. I was assuming the OP wants a 27" iMac. That might not have been an appropriate assumption to make.
Not at all! Removing the screen does not void the warranty assuming that you didn't break something.
Probably not worth an extra cost $500 that can be spent elsewhere i.e. the graphics card.
Worth is a personal value judgement. Personally I would never have a Mac without an SSD if at all possible. You get the read/write speed benefit all the time....and no HD to mechanically fail as all HD will do eventually.

Starting a Home Based Business
It's virtually every 9-to-5 worker's dream - to give up the shirt and tie, ditch the cubby, and start a business where you can be your own boss. Unfortunately, it's not nearly that easy! But if you're serious about starting a home based business, take advantage of these 4 tips:
Create a specific office area
You can't be your own boss on the couch - at least, not successfully. If you're serious about working from home, you need a designated office space. Ideally, you should have a separate room - like a guest room - that you can convert into a home office. That way, you will have 4 walls and a door to separate "work" from "home". If you don't have a spare room, consider buying a partition. There are decorative ones that will block off part of your bedroom or living room, while still looking great and matching your decor. That way, you'll have an area that's just for work - which makes getting work done a whole lot easier. Without a partition, you'll probably feel like you're just hanging out in your bedroom all day - and you probably won't get as much done.
Maintain a schedule
You don't necessarily have to work 9-to-5 at your home based business, but you do need to create and maintain a schedule that allows you to work 8+ hours per day. Otherwise, you'll wind up working out, running errands, and doing household chores while you should be working! When you run a home based business, time really is money. Every minute you spend distracted equals profits out of your pocket!
Understand all of the applicable tax laws
A home based business can enable you to take advantage of some great tax deductions - like deducting part of your mortgage as office space or deducting the cost of your new computer. Understanding all of the necessary tax laws can help you save a ton of money - but only if you know where to look. So, before you get to be your own boss, you should talk to an accountant who can make sure you're deducting everything that you can.
Stay positive
In order to be your own boss, you have to have the right attitude. You won't get rich overnight. Instead, you'll have to work hard to build a successful home based business. It's like any other new start-up; you need to build up momentum before you see big money. In the meantime, though, you have to stay positive. If you have a good, solid business plan - and the expertise to carry it out - believe in yourself. By drowning your sorrows in every hiccup you encounter along the way, you'll only make your home based business more likely to fail.

Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers
March 4, 2013
We the People are aware that the President is politically black-mailing Congress with ridiculous, frivolous, bad taste tax cuts in order to force Congress to vote in his Socialist tax system, beginning with the rich. It will only end with us all being slaves of the Government and bowing to the Government elites as the masses do in China and Russia and North Korea. Instead, We the People DEMAND that reasonable steps be taken to pay off our debt and stop wasteful, unnecessary, and expansionist spending. Stop all foreign aid, especially to our enemies, such as the billions Obama unconstitutionally gives to the Muslim Brotherhood's global jihad in tax-payer money and arms and troops. Repeal Obamacare, which will only double our deficit and bankrupt the country, and encourage health care sharing such as http://samaritanministries.org/. Bring our troops home and station them at our borders (facing out, not in). And audit every Governmental agency and program. The United States cannot afford to let politicians continue to double the deficit and sell off the country to China (who Obama has sold our natural gas rights to), Russia, and the global jihad. The state of our nation is an adult situation and needs mature and honest action, not political games and treasonous change.

Urgent and very worried

Hi everybody, this is a unusual discussion, and I'm not sure that it is even allowed here on MyLot, but one of my friends have been absent for more than a week. He is not the type of person to just take off, without letting his friends know. I have received private messages from my other friends asking me if I know anything, and then I decided it is time to do a search, maybe another friend of his will be able to shed some light as to his silence and absence. We are looking for my Swedish friend fjaril, I'm including his Avatar as a picture.

I thought you meant missing from home at first. I am glad another user sussed you just meant on MyLot - I did wonder about the avatar. Does nobody have his e-mail address at all? Or know of any other programs that he belongs to? I hope he turns up to ease your mind. He will be pleased to know that people care so much about him.

That is what I thought at first too. Has anybody heard from him yet? Hopefully, he is just taking a break and will be back on soon. It is great that you are concerned, just shows you can make real friends on the internet. But, scary when they suddenly disappear.

I must apologize to both of you, and everyone here, I didn't mean it to sound like in real life. When I started the discussion I was very upset, and as you all know we can't go back and edit our discussions, sigh, it would be nice hey? I started getting worried after two days not seeing him active here, then I received p/messages from my other friends wanting to know where he is, so on the spur of the moment I started the discussion. I hope he is ok, but what makes this whole thing so ironic, not so long ago he had a discussion, about this very same thing. He wanted to know should something happen to a person, how will that person's friends know here on MyLot. He was another "MyLot addict" like so many of us, so I just find it very strange for him not to let us know, should he be gone for a few days. I really miss his discussions. Thanks to both of you, for your interest. xx

Annie, I see him in a lot of your discussions so I know who you mean. I don't see how this could be against the rules of mylot since there are people who care. If he uses a computer at home, it is possible that his computer broke, or he could have the flu. Keep tabs on him and I will be praying for him. Kimberly

Hi there... Yes i know him, he isn't on my friend's list but i saw his reply to some of your posts. I guess you may give him another week, sometimes people just encounter either personal problems that won't allow them 2 log in for a few days or they just get tired of the net thing, you know being connected to others just electornically i mean it is nice but still it isn't like a real encounter. I hope he makes it back soon. Maybe close friends on myLot, well i mean online in general, must have another mean of communication, i mean other than net. It is okey if the person is just a net buddy but when she/he is a special friend, it would be nice 2 have another method of getting in touch with that person, at least to make sure he's okey, maybe dunno. BTW we all have our downs when it comes 2 online life, once again, it is a way 2 vent but still somehow not real, i guess when each and everyone of us touches that string, his tendency to get away gets stronger. This is a valid topic for a separate discussion.

Oh I hate it when we are worried like this, I was worried about Dianel and Misty once because the pms were not going through. I do hope you find him soon and have you pmed him lately? I do hope he sees this discussion and replies to you soon. We have become quite a close family here on Mylot and I know exactly how you feel. I will pray for you and keep my eyes peeled, I do know exactly where you are coming from.

Maybe he is just out on vacation!!! I did go through the links and nothing seems to be offensive.... maybe your friend is taking a vacation from Mylot due to severe deterioration of quality posts.... Why not you mail him, but if he is on vacation he will not be replying till he is back. I am not his friend so can not help you out my dear but I hope all is well and he replies back to you soon. Good luck

In September 2009, senior law enforcement officials, health care professionals and experts from international organizations joined their forces to confront a chilling crisis – the plague had just been unleashed on their countries by unknown evildoers.
Organized by the INTERPOL Bioterrorism Unit, this third edition of the event took place from 29-30 September in Warsaw, Poland. Participants in the workshop numbered 27 from six Central and Eastern European countries (Belarus, Czech Republic, Finland, Poland, Slovakia, Ukraine), as well as 15 participants from international organizations such as Europol, the UN Office for Disarmament Affairs (UNODA), the World Health Organization (WHO), the European Centre for Disease Control, the European Commission (Directorate General for Health and Consumer Affairs and Directorate General for Justice, Freedom and Security), the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS).
The tabletop exercise is the latest in a series of initiatives launched by INTERPOL since the creation of its Bioterrorism Prevention programme. INTERPOL has worked ceaselessly since 2005 to heighten its member countries' awareness of the dangers of bioterrorism and to enhance their preparedness for a bioterrorist attack. The Bioterrorism Prevention Programme has co-ordinated a series of events, starting with the Global Conference on Preventing Bioterrorism in March 2005; regional workshops in Africa, South America, Europe and Asia; train-the-trainer sessions all over the world; and practical tabletop exercises such as the one outlined above.
Bacteria used in an aerosol attack could cause cases of pneumonic plague
The US and Swiss governments co-hosted an International Bioterrorism Response Coordination Exercise (called "Black ICE II") in Montreux, Switzerland, on September 7-8, the Swiss Foreign Minsitry announced on Wednesday.
The exercise challenged participants with a fictional attack scenario involving pneumonic plague. The scenario is not based on real-world threat information and is not meant to indicate that this particular type of attack is likely.

"A rose by any other name is still a rose" and a vaccination shot by any other name is still a toxic substance placed in one's body…especially those of small children and babies.
It seems that on a regular basis, news articles appear about the horrible effects of vaccinations in case after case. Just in the past year, news leaked about concerns of Merck & Co.'s (a pharmaceutical company) contamination of vaccines. These are children's vaccines!
Then we read so many reports about the adverse effects of immunizations on children's lives, being the cause of many diseases.
We hear about the spin of the FDA and CDC, those government regulators supposedly the "watch-dogs" ensuring the safety of food and drugs. Yet somehow, they are not doing their job, as drug companies maintain their drugs are "safe" and "problems are being addressed."
The FDA, CDC, and drug companies all have public relations departments that spin the truth into denials, deflecting and reassuring the public that they are looking out for, protecting, and taking care of the millions being vaccinated on a continuing basis.
All the while, there is research that claims so many of the diseases in children are caused by the very drugs present in immunizations that are supposed to protect. And now a days, shots are given to newborn babies in hospitals without the knowledge of the parents! Then there are further requirements of vaccinations for preschool children and even more for children prior to entering first grade.
While inspectors report areas of "concern" with drug manufacturers, spokespeople for the drug companies report absolute confidence in the quality of their drugs, which means the dog bites the flea and the flea bites the dog and they all stay together with their spin and cover-ups of the dangers to innocent children relative to shots.
The question remains…who in fact is responsible then for the safety and the upbringing of children? Is it the responsibility of political government and drug companies, or the parent? I for one believe that among the many responsibilities of childcare, the first and foremost is children's safety. Not only must the parent believe in the responsibility for the safety of their children, they must take action to assure it.
In this connection, we are living in an era of political government rules, edicts, and regulations that sponsor compulsory attendance laws for tax supported schools, which then require a list of vaccinations before entering those schools that are socialistic by definition.
Quoting from Aldous Huxley, author of Brave New World,
"A really efficient totalitarian state would be one in which the all-powerful executive of political bosses and their army of managers control a population of slaves, who do not have to be coerced, because they love their servitude. To make them love it is the task assigned, in present day totalitarian states, to ministries of propaganda, newspaper editors and schoolteachers….
The greatest triumphs of propaganda have been accomplished, not by doing something, but by refraining from doing. Great is Truth, but still greater, from a practical point of view, is silence about Truth."
In this day and age of information, there is a tremendous amount of knowledge available regarding the dangers of vaccinations. And yet millions of parents subject their children to all kinds of vaccinations ordered by the government, without question or even a thought about the dangers to the child's health, life, and well-being.
A parent might ask what they can do about this situation. First, one must seek information about the horrors of vaccinations. One must educate themselves (for the sake of their children's safety) about all that is taking place relating to drug companies, their products, and partnership with agents of political government. Parents must also inform themselves about all that takes place in the tax supported school system. It's a decision one makes to be informed which will positively affect the safety of their precious children.
My personal story relative to immunizations began over 30 years ago when I spent three years compiling information about shots and decided I would not allow my child to have them. I enrolled him in school without a shot record and refused to present any certificate of rejection based upon religious grounds. The principal dismissed him from school and every few months for the next three years I would re-enroll him, and then he would be kicked out again. I kept a record of everything—dates, remarks, actions, among other things. During the periods he was not allowed in school I spent time teaching him and loved doing it.
I was well aware of the compulsory school law and knew I would eventually have to come to terms with it. Eventually, the school board realized I was not going to allow my son to receive shots, nor would I present any religious certificate of exemption, so they issued a letter of threat to have me arrested because of defiance of compulsory school law. They sent a truant officer to see me, followed by an official letter. It was then I realized the necessity of the system to make an example out of me, to show others what would happen if anyone resisted the rules and regulations of the socialistic system, i.e., they would face jail, as I did.
I had spent three years compiling information about immunizations. Back then, two of the shots required were polio and smallpox. I had reports of eight deaths from smallpox shots, information that the polio vaccine derived from the pus of an infected rhesus monkey, to mention only a couple of things I compiled during my extensive research.
After receiving the arrest letter, I hired the best attorney I could find in the southeast, spread my file out on a coffee table in his office, and told him I wanted to file suit in Federal court, challenging the constitutionality of forced immunizations. He was reluctant to take the case but finally agreed. I paid the filing fee and left my file with him. Leaving his office I felt good and well prepared, with an inner assurance I would win my case.
The day it was filed in Federal court I called news reporters to be there. Consequently, I received a lot of news coverage in newspapers, television, and on radio. Later, one reporter told me the story was newsworthy because one country woman was fighting the bureaucracy and winning.
No one agreed with me and I was totally alone in my battle against the state school system and health department. I did not belong to any organization; therefore my case was just one lone individual battling the power of the political state. While the case was ongoing, Federal judges re-instated my child back in school under a Federal order. Many were up in arms about my battle and refusal to allow immunizations. In one front page newspaper article, one top educator was quoted as saying I was "crazy." To that I replied, "I might be…but my child is not going to have those shots." On radio call-in programs, many called in protesting my position saying I had no right to place my child in school without shots, which "threatened their children." I called in and reminded listeners if their child was immunized, and if the shots prevented any disease, my child was no threat to theirs.
Eventually, the three panel of Federal judges ruled in my favor declaring the state law requiring immunizations unconstitutional and the law was changed. The new law went into effect when signed by the governor.
One of the questions posed by the court was why I was against immunizations. My reply was that I'm not against them for anyone who wants them. What I'm against is the force of them into my healthy child's body, ostensibly to prevent some disease he may never have. In addition, I believe there is an inherent natural immunization in the body against diseases, impeded by the toxicity of the shots.
My case was ruled on in 1972 and my child never had any immunizations, nor did he ever have any childhood diseases.
As I sit here today, it is both interesting and disturbing to read all of the information claiming the ill-effects of immunizations and the adverse health problems caused by them. One is the claim that autism is caused by immunizations. I'm not a researcher and do not know all the ill-effects. Common sense tells me filling the bodies of children with toxic drugs is not a route to a healthy body and is unsafe.
Accordingly, it is my sincere belief that the parent is responsible for the upbringing, health, and safety of his or her child, and not some drug company, the state, or the schools. To allow others to make the decisions relative to the health and safety of your child is irresponsible.
I'm not a crusader and have never crusaded about anything, but as an individual, I stand up and fight for that which I believe in for both myself and my children. And remind myself of the truism, "if one does not stand for something, one will fall for anything."
Let Freedom Ring!

Please turn in this assignment (and all future assignments for this course) by emailing them to me . Please use the subject of "Physics 222 HW1" for these assignments (if you use the link above, the subject will be added automatically). Please attach the source code to any programs that you write for this assignment. If you write more than one program, attach each separately. When answering the questions themselves feel free to answer directly in the body of your message (or attach your answers as a separate file). You may want to copy and paste the questions into your message, but please do not send me html email - I prefer plain text.
This problem involves compiling and running the example program "convert" from page 16 in the text. First, compile the Fortran 90 version of this program. To do this first save a copy of the Fortran file to somewhere in your home directory in your Unix account. By the way, it probably would be a good idea to make a directory (or folder, if you prefer that term) in your Unix account for this class. You can make a directory with the command "mkdir" or using a filemanager like "konqueror".
To compile the program at a command prompt type:
gfortran -o convert_f convert.f90
The name of the compiler is "gfortran". The program gfortran is part of the free gcc compiler suite. The "-o" is what is known as a command-line option, which are common with command-line programs. In this case "-o" tells the compiler what to name the output executable file that it creates, in this case "convert_f". You can call your executable program just about anything that you'd like. If you leave out the "-o" option the executable name defaults to "a.out". Finally, "convert.f90" is the name of the source code to compile.
When you type in this command, if everything works correctly an executable file name "convert_f" will be created. If not, then you will get some error messages. To check to see if the executable was created type:
ls -l
Now that you have compiled the Fortran version of "convert", do the same for the C++ version. The process will be identical except for slight changes in the command-line:
g++ -o convert_c convert.C
Here the main changes are that the compiler is named "g++" and the file is called "convert.C".
Now run each version of the program with the following inputs for the number of seconds: 0, 100, 100.111, 9347, 555554, -11, 12345678901, and 1234567890123456789012345678901234567890 . To run the Fortran version of the program type:
and similarly for the C++ version. Copy and paste all of your results into your solution for this assignment. (To copy and paste with Unix select what you want to copy with the left mouse button, move the pointer to where you want to paste, and click the middle mouse button to paste).
Being able to take someone else's code and make alterations to it (even when you don't know the language in question) is an important skill to have. Now you will alter the two "convert" programs that you used above to calculate the number of days, hours, minutes, and seconds instead of just the number of hours, minutes, and seconds. Test both the C++ and Fortran versions of your improved convert programs with the input listed above. Copy and paste your results into your homework solution.
Now you will write your own programs similar to "convert". Write a program in C++ or Fortran that takes an input temperature in Fahrenheit and converts it to Celsius, Kelvin, and Rankine. To begin with declare the numerical variables as "integer"s in Fortran or "int"s in C++.
Run your program with the following input Fahrenheit temperatures: -459, 0, 32, 212, 1000.00. As in the other problem copy and paste these results into your solution. Do you see any problem with these results?
Now change the variable declarations in your code so that all numerical variables are declared with "float" in C++ and "real" in Fortran. Also, make sure that any numerical constants that you use include a decimal point (i.e. 99 => 99. or 99.0). Re-run the same input temperatures as above and copy the results into your solution.
What has changed? Do you results now match what you expect?

One of our initiatives at the library is to develop opportunities for outreach in the community. We look for ways to provide services or programs at other locations, outside of the library. This helps us reach
people who are not able to come to the library or who do not know about all the library offers. Here are two of our current initiatives!
Book Buddies! – This is an outreach program to the Appalachian Agency for Senior Citizens at their location in Richlands, near Southwest Virginia Community College. Library staff goes to the senior center once a month, taking books and other materials that can be checked out by those who are attending programs at the senior center. There are usually about 20-25 people who are making use of this service and we get very positive feedback!
Trivia Night – This program takes library staff to the new local brewery in Tazewell – Painted Peak Brewing Company.
Staff have prepared Trivia questions and teams of people participate in the all the fun. The library staff also tells people about what's going on at the library and has information for them to pick up. This has also been very successful, having 45-50 people participating in Trivia night each time. More people meeting library staff – more people learning about the library and people winning prizes provided by the management of the brewery!
We look forward to developing more outreach programs and services throughout Tazewell County!

Three years later, "Kingsman: The Golden Circle" picks up exactly where its predecessor left off – with excessively artistic violence and an over-the-top plot.
Matthew Vaughn's follow-up to 2014's "Kingsman: The Secret Service" follows Eggsy (Taron Egerton), the now fully trained super-spy, as he tries to save the world again. Only this time, the British-based Kingsman agency is destroyed, forcing Eggsy and his few remaining comrades to team up with Statesman, their American counterpart.
This American twist adds a whole new element to the franchise, introducing new spies played by Channing Tatum, Halle Berry and Jeff Bridges; yet "The Golden Circle" remains a movie we've already seen.
Once again, Eggsy must save the world from a psycho who's secretly developed a way to kill millions of people around the world for her own personal benefit.
Sounds familiar, doesn't it? Maybe because that's exactly what Samuel L. Jackson did in the first one.

Nationals-Diamondbacks Preview
The Washington Nationals won another series and continued to produce offensively, even with a more modest performance by Bryce Harper.
They'll try to provide Max Scherzer with another solid backing as they open a three-game road series against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Monday night.
Washington (17-15) has won a season-high four straight and is averaging 6.0 runs with a .306 average and 16 homers while winning 10 of 12. The team had scored 3.5 runs per game while hitting .215 and totaling 16 homers during a 7-13 start. The Nationals, who have won their last four series, are also 12 for 27 with runners in scoring position over the last four.
Harper failed to homer Sunday against Atlanta after hitting six in his previous three games, but singled and doubled with an RBI. Wilson Ramos extended his hitting streak to 13 games and put Washington ahead with an eighth-inning double in a 5-4 victory. Ramos is hitting .420 during the streak and is batting .385 with runners in scoring position this season, going 6 for his last 10.
"He has a knack for driving runs in because he stays in the middle of the diamond and goes the other way so well," manager Matt Williams told MLB's official website. "He just stays on the ball so well. He has been swinging at strikes, being patient enough to get those pitches. He has delivered for us. He is playing well."
Ramos is batting just .217 in 16 games versus Arizona, though he has 12 RBIs.
Washington's offense helped Scherzer (2-3, 2.11 ERA) avoid a third straight loss in Wednesday's 7-5 victory against Miami. The five earned runs he allowed in seven innings were as many as he gave up in his first five starts for his new club. He received seven runs of support after being backed by 11 during a 1-3 start despite a 1.26 ERA.
Scherzer struck out 10 for the second straight game, however he gave up a home run for the second consecutive start after not allowing one in his first four. He also allowed 10 hits after limiting opponents to a .189 average through his first five.
He made his only start against the Diamondbacks in June 2010, while with Detroit.
Sunday was a good day for Arizona's feast-or-famine pitching staff despite the fact it was a bullpen day. Five pitchers saw the mound with none throwing more than 3 1-3 innings. In the last 10 games, the Diamondbacks (14-16) have allowed either one or no runs in five wins and six or more in five losses.
Josh Collmenter (3-3, 3.40) gave up a season-high five runs and 10 hits, including three homers, in seven-plus innings of a 13-7 victory at Colorado on Wednesday. Run support hasn't been an issue, as he's been backed by nine-plus runs in three of his last four outings while receiving a total of two runs of support in his other three.
"It's fun to see them continue to have good at-bats and put runs on the board," he said.
Collmenter didn't record a decision in his lone start versus Washington last year, allowing four runs in five innings.
A.J. Pollock hit his second homer in three days Sunday and is 9 for 23 in his last six.
The Nationals went 6-1 against the Diamondbacks last year and have won 14 of the last 18 meetings.
Harper has never homered in 12 meetings and is 2 for 15 in five games in Arizona.

THIS is the time of year when friends who grow their own vegetables start inviting you round for supper so they can show off their crops. In past summers I, too, would have been smugly reporting in this column the promising first harvests of broad beans and peas, salads and young spinach, and the simple yet delicious meals I have rustled up. Not so this year. We've had nothing but a few portions of broad beans and seven pods of peas. In spite of the recent upturn in the weather, it's been a terrible year for growing vegetables, and everything was extremely slow getting off the ground.
Several sowings of peas, beans and courgettes just failed to appear - having rotted, presumably, in the cold wet soil. Even the runner and French beans I sowed in my VW camper van, which is normally commandeered as an efficient unheated greenhouse for the months of March and April, met the same fate.
For the first time in years, I had to resort to buying plants from the shops - only to have the slugs devour a good half of them. Sometimes I have caught myself wondering why I bother, especially now that the price of organic vegetables is coming down in the shops. By the time you add in the cost of all those unsuccessful seeds and plants, not to mention the compost, the manure and the sheer back-breaking labour, it becomes clear that I do it for love, not money.
I take comfort in the fact that I am by no means alone. There have been a lot of long faces at the allotment this year. The poor weather has united organic and non-organic growers alike - you can't resort to chemicals against cold and damp. Practically everybody lost their first sowings of peas and beans - you'd see people hunched over the beds where they'd sown the seeds searching in vain for signs of life.
The only person who got it right was my Indian friend, who now has the neatest and most productive plot on the site - claiming the title from my next-door neighbour whose baby now takes up much of his time. Mustafa was more patient than the rest of us.
Throughout that cold, wet April - and much of May, too - he bided his time. He didn't rush out and sow on the few sunny days we had; nor did he resort to raising plants under glass. Somehow, though, he knew when it was safe to start, and, as a result, his french and runner beans, sown straight into well-prepared trenches, are the only ones in full flower and about to set.
His courgettes, too, are fruiting, while my second lot of plants (no need to tell you what happened to the first lot) are still establishing themselves. The other day I asked him what his secret was.
'Warm soil,' he said. 'I waited till the soil was warm both day and night. Warm soil daytime, cold soil night-time is no good for seeds.' This makes perfect sense, of course - and reminds me of the old farmer's saying that the soil must be warm enough to be able to sit on comfortably with a bare bottom before you plant your seeds. I wonder if the committee has a sub-clause in a bylaw about nudity on site?
Luckily, though, there are enough good things happening on my own two plots to prevent me giving up. The pond is full of frogs (clearly a non-slug eating variety - so bang goes that theory) and hovered over by dragonflies which are quite the most beautiful thing I've seen in ages. We've had a stunning display of ornamental alliums, culminating in the quivering heads of A giganteum shooting up among a bed full of cardoons and fuzzy-leaved mulleins. And the living willow bower is a real joy - so bushed out now with leafy growth that it provides extremely pleasant dappled shade. Only trouble is, you can't eat any of those.
My hopes are pinned firmly on the fruit cage, where the first strawberries are ripening, the raspberries are doing well and there are tight clusters of fruit on the red-, black- and whitecurrants. I shall have to get my friends round for dinner - I hope they like broad bean risotto and summer pudding.
