COLUMBUS -- Falling unemployment rates and rising consumer confidence are expected to help boost retail sales during the coming holiday season, according to a new forecast released Monday by a state business group.
The Ohio Council of Retail Merchants and the University of Cincinnati's Economic Center are projecting a 4.2 percent increase in retail spending in November and December, with an estimated $14.7 billion in total sales. The total will amount to about one-fifth of the state's 2012 spending totals.
More than half of Ohio's holiday purchases are expected to be made in Columbus and Cleveland. About $935 million and $583 million will be spent in Akron and Youngstown, respectively, with the latter projected to see a sales increase of about 3.4 percent.
"Consumers are much more optimistic about the overall economy than they have been in the past three years," said Jeff Rexhausen, associate director of research at UC's Economic Center.
The National Retail Federation projects that the average consumer will spend a total of nearly $750 this holiday season, up from about $740 last year. More than half of that total ($421.82) will be on gifts for family members. Gift cards remain the most requested present.
"We've seen this pattern of cautious optimism all year and despite the challenges that still exist in our economy, it looks as if consumers are eager to celebrate with friends and family," Matthew Shay, president and chief executive officer of the National Retail Federation, said in a released statement. "As the most promotional time of the year, retailers will continue to look for ways to stand out, specifically with attractive deals on toys, electronics and apparel, even well before the 'official' start of the holiday shopping season -- Black Friday and Cyber Monday."
The Ohio study's authors cautioned that a spike in gas prices or lingering uncertainty about the federal fiscal cliff could hamper sales.
Additionally, the study projected that nearly half (45 percent) of Ohio consumers would make some of their holiday purchases online, up from 35 percent two years ago. That could cost Ohio retailers about $167 million in sales and state and local governments more than $51 million in sales tax collections, the groups estimated.

Within the week, the US Supreme Court is expected to decide whether TV broadcasters have made their case for shutting down Aereo, the cloud service giving consumers a remote antenna/DVR alternative to cable.
Broadcasters charge that Aereo is violating their copyright by retransmitting TV signals without their permission and without paying the same sort of retransmission fees as cable TV companies. Aereo contends it merely provides a cloud-based, remote control extension of two technologies consumers can legally operate in their homes -- an antenna for picking up over-the-air TV transmissions, plus a digital video recorder for spooling up content to be played back later. The Supreme Court clarified the legality of the later back in 1984, in the era of videotape. According to a Boston Globe report on the legal issues, prior to launching the service the Aereo founding team studied a 2008 US Appeals Court decision allowing Cablevision to operate a remote DVR system under the same principle that consumers have a right to record programming for their own use.
[Rural bandwidth: Federal Broadband Program Falls Short.]
The Supreme Court did not issue a ruling on Monday, as some court watchers had expected it would, but more rulings are expected Wednesday, Thursday, and possibly next Monday.
Rather than rebroadcasting TV video feeds in bulk the way a cable channel does, Aereo assigns each customer a tiny TV antenna (the size of a dime) for tuning into the TV channels available in a specific metropolitan market. It charges $8 per month for access to the antenna and cloud storage sufficient for up to 20 hours of programming (or $12 for a two-antenna, 60 hours of recording package). So far, it's in 11 markets including Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, Detroit, and Miami.
From a consumer standpoint, the service also provides a handy means of getting live TV on a phone, tablet, or any other Internet-connected device. For those who want to "cut the cord" and stop paying for a cable TV subscription, now that so much good video content is available online, Aereo is a way of still getting access to live news and events coverage.
Yet for broadcasters Aereo is a nightmare, cutting out one source of revenue, those retransmission fees, and undercutting another, since broadcast advertisements are less valuable when the consumer has the option of fast-forwarding through them on pre-recorded content, DVR style.
Even if Aereo prevails, broadcasters will likely turn to the FCC, asking to put Aereo in the same regulatory classification as a cable TV operator, making it subject to the same regulations. Otherwise the broadcasters could go to Congress. Aereo is up against NBC, ABC, CBS, and Fox.
Here are five questions we're eager to see answered with the court's decision:

Virtual Photoelectric Lab
This activity has benefited from input through a review and suggestion process.
This activity has benefited from input from faculty educators beyond the author through a review and suggestion process as a part of an activity development workshop. Workshop participants were provided with a set of criteria against which they evaluated each others' activities. For information about the criteria used for this review, see http://serc.carleton.edu/sp/compadre/devactivities/reviewcriteria.html.
This page first made public: Oct 15, 2010
This material is replicated on a number of sites as part of the SERC Pedagogic Service Project
In this activity, students measure the relationship between kinetic energy of photoelectrons and the frequency of the incident light. The kinetic energy is measured in the usual way by determining the stopping potential for each frequency. In this version, a Java applet that simulates the experimental set-up is used. The simulation shows the behavior of an electron when struck by a photon. The stopping potential is determined by observing the behavior of the electron in response to a counter voltage applied across the emitter and collector in the phototube. The stopping potential is the voltage that allows the electron to cross the gap and just touch the collector before falling back.
Learning Goals
Context for Use
Setting: Lab
Time required: approx 50 min
Special equipment: Computer with Internet access and browser that supports Java.
Pre-requisite knowledge: Students should be familiar with the problems inherent in the classical model of the photoelectric effect and the basic features of Einstein's quantum model.
Teaching Notes and Tips
If possible, instructors should demonstrate the simulation prior to doing the lab. This should include the method used to find the stopping potential (see "Quick Method for Finding Stopping Potential" in the instructions.
Data analysis is done graphically. Graphs can be done by hand, however, computer generated graphs (with slope and intercept determined by linear regression) should be the preferred method, particularly in a distance learning situation.
Standard spreadsheet software (e.g. Excel) is probably best for this; however, a link to a Java applet for this purpose is provided in the instructions. For the latter, students will need to do a screen capture to save the graph

Glenwood Springs Events, Coupons, Reviews!
I was offered to visit the Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament at Buena Park and jumped at the chance. It is only located about 2 hours away so I thought it would be fun to grab some friends and take a road trip.
Get There On Time
We were early, but I would still recommend being there 1 hour and 15 minutes before your scheduled show. The seating is based on that, plus there is plenty to do inside for an hour once you get in.
Of course there is tons of swag you can buy. We went straight for the bar and filled up our cups! It actually was a pretty good deal. With the novelty glass and a full fill up with beer it was about $20.
They do some pre-show things like "knighting" people. I would of liked to see more than 2 people chosen, however it was still cool to watch.
Even got a picture with the King!
The Show and Food
First off let me say I would definitely go again, but there were a few things I didn't like. The seats we were in I couldn't hear what they were saying. Since you are in a big dome it kind of echoes and we were the directly across from what I assume would be the speakers.
You are assigned a color knight. We were pretty loud rooting for the Blue Knight. Unfortunately he was defeated in the final round!
It also had some slow spots, where the food was served. They had 15 minutes of birthday announcements which was kind of annoying. I'm sure the time could be filled with something better.
I wish I remember my servers name though, because he went out of his way to be AWESOME. We were checked on frequently and he even brought another drink when I ordered one wrong. There is also a bartender service that will come over for you.
With the show dinner is included! We definitely got full and had some leftovers to take with us. You can see our menu and what was given. Soup and Bread, Chicken, Potato, Corn, and a dessert. In the picture is the main course.
The Deal
I love the idea and the overall show/tournament/performance. I think it's awesome for a kids birthday and other special occasions. Of course the more people you take, it might be expensive.
Luckily we have a great deal that is available!
Adults $36.95 and children (12 and under) $29.95 with the Medieval Times coupon code MT3629 through 2/28/17.

I've had so many requests for ideas on how to style short hair for weddings, and as I've recently cut my hair again, thought that it might be a good idea for a post.
If you're not a long-haired girl, and never will be, don't be tempted in growing your hair because it's 'expected' of a bride to have long hair. With a bit of product, and a few tools, there's no need to feel that there's nothing you could do with short hair! I know there's not a lot of inspirational pictures for short-haired brides in wedding magazines and the like, so hopefully this could help some cropped beauties!
For the bolder bride, why not try a quiff? After using mousse for hold and volume (try Redken's Guts 10), lift the roots with a round brush. Use a curling iron to add more movement if your hair needs it, make sure the sides and back lies flat. Set the look with hairspray or a strong hold gel, depending on your hair.
For a more subtle, sleeker look, use a soft blowdry gel like Redken's Velvet Gelatine in damp hair, blowdry with a paddle brush, keeping the sides and back sleek, and manipulate the fringe to the side. Set with a light hairspray.
For a bit of a tousled look, roughdry your hair using your fingers only. Again, use straighteners to add movement if your hair is super straight, then use the magically wonderful POWDER.PUFF by Kevin Murphy on your roots for a gritty volume that will last all day – perfect for fine hair! Just ruffle your roots when you need extra volume, et voilà!
If you have slightly longer hair, try glamorous waves. My personal preference would be more worn-in and tousled than Charlize's. For a great video to show you how you can create this, click HERE.
I know the dip-dye effect will probably be on it's way out at some point, but why not have fun with your hair on the day? Even if it's just for the reception? Another Kevin Murphy product, COLOR.BUG is perfect for this, just make sure you cover your dress before you apply, and it's not advisable for high necklines. It looks fabulous on all hair colours, and washes out immediately.
Hope this have inspired some of you, feel free to ask me for any hair/make-up related advice on twitter!

Brian Elliott made 22 saves and Jaden Schwartz had his first two-goal game as the St. Louis Blues earned home-ice advantage for the first-round of the playoffs by defeating the Chicago Blackhawks 3-1 Saturday night.
The Blues won 12 of their last 15 games to capture fourth place in the Western Conference.
Elliott and the Blues were helped by facing a Chicago lineup that was devoid of almost every regular.
Ben Smith, who was playing in his first game of the season, scored for Chicago.
The two-goal game was the first of Schwartz's career. Patrik Berglund also scored for St. Louis and David Backes had two assists to give him 300 points for his career.

This blog entry comes to you from Willam Cheng, IBM Tivoli Vice President, Maximo Asset & Service Management Products
Our Smarter Planet is composed of Smarter Infrastructures, such as Smarter Utilities, Smarter Transportation, Smarter Healthcare, and Smarter Cities, to name only a few. These increasingly intelligent systems are becoming more and more visible in our daily lives, and hold promise for improving the services we receive from our social and economic ecosystems.
A Smarter Infrastructure is made of various, interrelated assets, divided into three categories:
1. Physical assets, such as trains, roadways, power grids, pumps, and buildings.
2. IT assets, such as computers, networks, storage, and sensors.
3. Intelligent assets, an emerging blend of physical and IT assets (such as smart meters and driverless cars).
The focus of Smarter Asset Management for the Smarter Planet is optimizing the usage of all three categories to create a better outcome: For business, a greater return on their assets; for government, better services for its citizens; and for the individual, a higher standard of living and improved quality of life.
Within a Smarter Infrastructure there are many ways to optimize the usage of assets and improve the asset's availability while reducing costs. The most important aspect is not about managing the performance of an individual asset. Rather, it is about Service Management: how the asset is operating in the context of the larger system of assets, and optimizing the services that need to be delivered to clients.
Service Management for assets has three important attributes. Visibility enables an organization to see their business operating in real time. Control helps organizations to effectively manage assets and processes that their business relies upon. Automation helps optimize and integrate operational processes that directly support the delivery of revenue generating activities.
Let's look at an example. In mining, the transportation time of materials from mine to port is critical to revenue generation and time to market. What if one of your trucks breaks down with a hydraulic pump failure? You identify crews available to make the repair, and find you have two options: either repair the pump, which will take 3 hours and cost $300, or install a replacement pump in 1 hour for a cost of $3,000. To optimize the individual asset cost, you decide to repair the pump for $300.
With Service Management you come to a different conclusion. Since your truck delivers $100,000 of material to port every hour, you decide to have the pump replaced (in 1 hr), saving 2 hrs, and preserving $200,000 of revenue.
By managing the truck (asset) in the context of the larger system of assets, as well as the service that was to be performed, Service Management enabled a better business outcome!
The example above is a simple one, but illustrates the insight and benefit that can be derived from leveraging technology to provide Visibility, Control and Automation.
Technology was identified as the most important external force that will impact organizations over the next 3 to 5 years, according to the 2012 IBM Global CEO study. The study also found that outperforming organizations are especially focused on combining technology with the business to drive growth and innovation. As one CEO of an industrial products firm stated, "The biggest risk we face is technological. If we fail to anticipate a huge technology step, we might go out of business."
The blending of the physical and digital worlds can create tremendous opportunity to leverage technology to optimize and transform your business.
I would like to hear from you about your experiences building and managing an increasingly smarter infrastructure! What is your view of the benefits and risks? What challenges are you facing? Let's work together to build a Smarter Planet.

How often should carpets be steam cleaned?
Dirty carpets can be unhealthy for the people living in the home, particularly those who have allergies, so it's important to have them cleaned regularly; simply vacuuming once or twice a week isn't enough. Carpet cleaning should be done by a professional carpet cleaning service at least once a year to remove grime and help extend the life of your carpet. Most carpet manufacturers recommend professional steam cleaning, which penetrates deep into the carpet fibers and lifts out both dirt and the pollutants that get tracked inside. Steam cleaning also removes most of the moisture, so carpets dry quickly enough for homeowners to resume using them the same day. Between professional carpet cleanings, your carpet may need an emergency spot cleaning. Pet accidents, food or drink spills, and more can often be effectively cleaned with some water and a drop of white vinegar, although many cleaners will also make house calls for smaller spills and hard-to-clean spots like wine or grease stains.
What does carpet cleaning cost?
National average carpet cleaning prices range between $100 and $130. Carpet cleaning prices depend on how many square feet of carpet you want cleaned, how many rooms in one house or building will be cleaned, how stained your carpet is, how much the carpet cleaning company charges, your ZIP code, and the type of carpet you have. Cost per square foot can range from 20 cents to $1 or more, based on the above variables. Synthetic carpets are typically the least expensive to clean; natural fibers like wool cost more, as they require more care and attention, as well as more drying time. Excessive stains, challenging locations such as stairs, and accessibility also factor into your carpet cleaning price. Companies may charge a minimum service fee for cleaning a small carpet to cover their business expenses (paying employees, transporting the special equipment to your home). If your pet has repeatedly saturated the carpet with urine or if the fibers are extremely matted down, it may make more sense to completely replace your carpet than to continue to have it cleaned.
How do you find a good carpet cleaning company?
Regular professional carpet cleaning can both extend the life of your carpet and remove harmful pollutants from your home. Finding a good carpet cleaning company is an important aspect of home maintenance. When choosing a carpet cleaner, consider these top three questions:
- What method of carpet cleaning do you prefer? Steam cleaning is an increasingly popular method because it's thorough and safe, and dries quickly enough for you to return to your home the same day the carpets are cleaned.
- Have you checked the company's references? Most cities are home to several carpet cleaning companies, so it's a good idea to check their reviews and references. Look for references from people in your neighborhood with homes similar to yours.
- What's included in the base price? What other services does the carpet cleaning company offer? Some companies will move furniture for you, while others charge a fee for it. Some include stairs in the cost of the home's cleaning, while others charge per step.
How much does it cost to clean a carpet?
Carpet cleaning costs vary depending on the type of cleaning, such as steam cleaning, and whether there are any stains that require special treatment. The main cost factors are the square footage of the carpet and the material it's made from. The national average carpet cleaning price ranges from $100 to $130 for a typical suburban home, but steam cleaning prices start at an average of $120. In general, professional carpet cleaning ranges from an average of 20 cents to 50 cents per square foot, depending on where you live. Many companies have a minimum fee or room requirement — such as two rooms for an average of $40 each — and will charge more to clean carpeted stairs or a second floor. Finally, the carpet fiber type, density and pile will also affect the cost of cleaning; man-made fibers are stain-resistant and easier to clean, while wool carpeting is sensitive to water and requires more care.
How much does it cost to clean an area rug?
Whether your pet had an accident, the party got too wild, or your kids can't control their juice boxes — we all need rug cleaning from time to time. In fact, even if you don't have a spill or spot, it's wise to have your area rug cleaned approximately once a year to keep the rug fibers in good health. In general, rug cleaning prices depend on the square footage of the rug, what the rug is made of, whether any repairs are needed, and whether you require the pro to travel to your location or provide pickup and drop-off services. Nationally, average area rug cleaning prices range from $80 to $120.
Wool and silk area rugs typically cost more to clean than rugs made from synthetic fibers because the more delicate materials take more care and may require specialized cleaning fluids. For example, a synthetic rug may cost $1.50 per square foot to clean; a wool, cotton, or chiffon rug could be $2 per square foot; and a silk or Navajo wool rug could cost $3 per square foot. The two most common rug cleaning methods are steam and chemical cleaning. The costs for the two methods are often the same, although a steam-cleaned rug will take longer to dry due to the moisture. If your area rug needs odor removal, moth deterrent, or hand washing, there will be additional charges.

This morning's release of personal income and spending data revealed that the savings rate plunged to its lowest level since 2008 in December, excluding the outlier data point in January 2013 that resulted from a spike in early dividend payments related to the fiscal cliff and subsequent drop.
"With real incomes after tax down 0.2%, the saving rate dropped to 3.9% from 4.3%," says Ian Shepherdson, chief economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics.
"The downward trend in savings cannot continue; we believe the Q4 decline was due to people spending unexpectedly high cash balances resulting from lower spending on energy in Q3. Savings will rebound in Q1. Even with better income — December was hit by the weather — we look for real spending to slow to 2-2.5% from 3.3%. The chart shows that the saving rate is now below the low seen in the 2002-04 period, before the housing boom allowed it to fall even further. With a repeat of the housing boom unlikely, the saving rate likely will struggle to stay at this low level."

As a professional athlete what I put in my body for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, are some of the most important decisions I make every day.
I must ensure I'm consuming sufficient calories to keep full and have the energy to perform at my peak while not overloading and slowing my body down. My career depends on it. So many people are shocked when they learn that I fuel my body with a plant-based — vegan — diet. I'm just shocked that it took me 26 years to gain the wisdom to do it!
A few months ago my wife and I sat down to watch a documentary, "Forks Over Knives." I thought I'd learn something, but I wasn't prepared to have my world rocked. I have long heard about the benefits of eating vegan, but I never thought I could eat a plant-based diet and maintain my weight for football. What I realized watching the documentary is that all the effort I have been putting in to get big and strong for my professional career was actually killing me.
I learned consumption of meat, eggs, and dairy are directly linked to the top killers of Americans. The very things we've been hearing since we were kids do our bodies good are clogging our arteries, giving us diabetes, making us obese, and are putting the current generation of kids on the path toward a host of chronic, preventable diseases that will end up shortening their lives and causing untold suffering.
Eating more plant-based meals is supported by Oakland-based Kaiser Permanente, which recently published a brand-new "Plant-Based Diet" guide in which it wrote, "Any movement toward more plants and fewer animal products can improve your health."
Prestigious health organizations like American Institute for Cancer Research recently say, "The research shows one thing very clearly: we all need to eat more plants and less meat."
I'm not alone in this awakening. Professional athletes from an array of sports are fueling with fruits and vegetables. Ten-time Olympic medal winner Carl Lewis proudly stated "My best performances were when I was 30 years old and I was a vegan." Smash hitter Venus Williams eats a raw vegan diet. And baseball legend Tony LaRussa loves animals so much he not only started his own animal rescue organization, but leaves them off his plate.
And speaking of animals, according to The Humane Society of the United States, if we all went meat-free even just one day a week, it'd result in a billion fewer animals confined on factory farms and sent to slaughter.
Most exciting is that it's never been easier to eat a vegan diet. You can replace chicken nuggets with chicken-free nuggets, which are available in the freezer section of most any grocery store, enjoy wholesome fare like lentil soup, vegetable pot pies, and loaded sweet potatoes, or get your protein boost with a hearty southwestern three-bean chili. I fuel with lots of legumes, which are versatile and easy to enjoy in favorite dishes.
Since embracing a plant-based diet, small injuries that had been nagging me: tendinitis, arthritis, and, muscle fatigue have gone away. My recovery time and endurance have improved after enabling me to train even more!
I can honestly say that being vegan is not the only most efficient way to be full-body strong, it's also the most humane; everyone wins. I hope everyone will join me in eating delicious plant-based meals that can help you feel great, help the planet and make a world of difference for animals.
David Carter is a defensive lineman for the Oakland Raiders.

12.2 Processing on their own account
In other cases, your personal information may need to be provided to them to be held and processed by them in their own right and on their own account. In such case, they will have their own responsibility for that personal information, subject to their own privacy policy, and we will not be responsible for what they do with it following disclosure.
12.3 Handling According to Legal Requirements
When we provide your personal information to a government authority (including a regulator, police authority, military authority or private party acting for or on behalf of such authorities), we may not be able to control or impose requirements how they handle the information. Normally such recipients handle the information according to requirements of law they are subject to.
12.4 Other circumstances are without our consent
Uses other than as stated in Sections 13.1, 13.2 and 13.3 (for example, in the circumstances in Section 12.11), could occur but are without our consent.
13. Location Of Your Personal Information
13.1 Transfer of personal information overseas
We (and any affiliate, subcontractor or other person processing your personal information on our behalf) may transfer, store and otherwise process your personal information anywhere in the world to fulfill the purposes in this Policy, for example to: (1) our overseas offices; (2) information processors (including operators of global travel distribution systems); (3) airlines, hotels and other travel service products; and information technology and business service providers.
In many cases transfer is necessary to initiate or complete a booking or other transaction on your behalf in response to a request by you or for the purpose of entering a contract with a third party on your behalf.
Where we disclose your personal information to third parties, that disclosure may also involve a transfer of your personal information anywhere in the world, and those third parties may themselves transfer, store or otherwise process that information anywhere in the world.
In each case, we will comply with legal requirements concerning the transfer of your personal information by us to any third party outside the country where we are established, and where your personal information is still controlled by us or is being stored or otherwise processed on our behalf, our security measures (as detailed below) will also apply.
13.2 Countries to which your personal information is transferred
The countries which we transfer your personal information depend on your booking. Generally such countries include those in Asia Pacific, North and America and Europe.
14. Keeping Your Information Secure
14.1 Our security measures
14.1.1 Our general commitment
We are committed to implementing reasonable measures trying to keep your personal information secure. We are obliged by law to put in place appropriate technical and organizational measures trying to avoid unauthorized or unlawful processing of your personal information and trying to reduce risks of accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, your personal information. We have implemented security policies, rules and technical measures with a view to achieving this. But as part of our Policy we recognize and require you to recognize that there are no measures that guaranty security, and no measures are fully secure against those who are intent on accessing such information.
14.1.2 Transmissions between your web browser and our servers
We use Secured Socket Layer ("SSL") software to encrypt the personal information you provide to us while it is in transit over the internet. This will work if your browser is SSL enabled (which most are). You can verify that this is working by looking for the symbol of a closed lock or solid key on the bottom bar of your browser window, and checking that the prefix for the web address in the browser address bar has changed from "http" to "https".
14.1.3 Storage of your personal information
The personal information we collect from you online is stored by us and/or our service providers on databases protected through a combination of physical and electronic access controls, firewall technology and other reasonable security measures.
14.2 Your security measures
For your privacy protection, we encourage you to maintain anti-virus and other malware protection software on your computers and other devices, and maintain your own measures to protect your personal information. Please do not include sensitive personal information in any e-mail or other communications you may send to us, including payment card information.
We encourage you to be careful about whom you give personal information to. We never contact you to ask you for sensitive personal information, such as payment card information, or sensitive personal information such as passport numbers or log-in details, and we will only ask you for such information in person or through our website, or by telephone in connection with a booking you are making or have made. Please let us know if you someone purports to contact you in our name.
14.3 Security Limitations
No security measure provides 100% certainty against all risks. Inadvertent disclosure is possible. Technology changes, computer hackers, organized criminals foreign and domestic, perpetrators of terror, foreign and domestic enemies, dishonesty by persons with access and human error are examples why it is impossible for us, or anyone, to absolutely assure your information cannot or will not ever be accessed or disclosed. We and our management and personnel shall not be liable for loss, injury or damage arising from or relating to disclosure of your information. Please do not give us any information that is so confidential or so personal that its release would cause you injury.
15. How Long Do We Keep Your Personal Information For?
We keep your personal information for so long as is reasonably necessary for the purposes for which we use it, and if longer, for any duration required by law, and for statutory claims limitation periods where your personal information may be relevant to any possible liability we may have to you. It is possible your personal information may be maintained longer, until such time as we delete such information.
16. Your Rights
Our privacy policy is not intended to create a contract or form part of any contract, except that in Section 10.9 you grant rights to us. You have certain non-contractual rights under the laws noted above, which we summarize below. If you contact us about these rights, we may ask for proof of your identity before we act, and may refuse to act if you do not provide this or your identity is not established by you.
16.1 Use for direct marketing

A font, cryst, has been created by Ulrich Müller for displaying crystallographic symmetry axes in the style of the space-group diagrams in International Tables for Crystallography.
The following files are available for download.
p +cryst1.map(config.ps is in a directory like \texmf\dvips\config or /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config). If you use pdfTeX, insert
map +cryst1.mapto your pdftex.cfg file (in \texmf\pdftex\config or /usr/share/texmf/pdftex/config).
cryst cryst1 <cryst.pfbFinally, tell TeX which new files and directories exist. This is done by a command like
initexmf -u
for MikTeX under Windows, or run texhash under root in the shell of Linux RedHat.
Include the following commands in the preamble of your document:
\DeclareFontShape{U}{cry}{m}{n}{ <-> cryst}{}
\newcommand{\cry}[1]{{\usefont{U}{cry}{m}{n} \symbol{#1}}}
To produce the graphical symbol number n in the text, use the command
n is the number of the symbol in the list of symbols (see file cryst1.pdf). For example, the command \cry{41} will produce the symbol for a 4_1 axis.
commands to position the symbols in \put commands in picture environments (cf. file cryst1.pdf).
