Our Sept/Oct issue had a big focus on new PV module technology, and its importance for driving the industry to greater heights — stuff like thin-film, perovskite, new silicon slicing processes, etc. The importance of products outside traditional PV modules has only increased since the ITC injury finding.
Something new to watch: The US Patent and Trademark Office awarded a patent for a method of making III-V thin-film tandem solar cells with high performance from Solar-Tectic LLC.
The patent, the first ever for a thin III-V layer on crystalline silicon thin-film, covers group III-V elements such as Gallium Arsenide (GaAs), and Indium Gallium Phosphide (InGaP), for the top layer, as well as all inorganic materials, including, silicon, germanium, etc., for the bottom layer. Group III-V compounds such as Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) are proven photovoltaic materials with high efficiencies but until now have been cost prohibitive because high quality III-V material such as GaAs is expensive.
Moreover, the cost of substrates on which to grow III-V materials, such as germanium, which is known to be an ideal material, has kept the technology from market entry. In the breakthrough technology here, ultra-thin films of III-V materials and silicon (or germanium) replace expensive, thicker wafers thereby lowering the costs dramatically. The inventor is Ashok Chaudhari, CEO of Solar-Tectic LLC.
What's the impact?
III-V tandem (or multi-junction) cells built on wafers such as silicon are currently being developed in labs, with high efficiencies of around ~30%. The highest dual-junction cell efficiency (32.8%) came from a tandem cell that stacked a layer of gallium arsenide (GaAs) atop crystalline silicon. Manufacturing costs are expensive especially if a germanium wafer is used as the bottom material in the two layer tandem structure. In order to compete with low cost silicon wafer technology which is 90% of the global solar panel market, efficiencies must not only be as high as silicon wafers or greater (21.7% and 26.7% are lab records for poly- and monocrystalline silicon wafer cells, respectively), but manufacturing costs must also be lower.
This is achievable in the Solar-Tectic LLC patented technology, which uses common industrial manufacturing processes and at low temperature. There is no wafer involved which saves material and energy; instead a thin film allows for precise control of growth parameters. A glass substrate instead of wafer also allows for a bifacial cell design for increased efficiency. A cost effective ~30% efficient III-V tandem solar cell in today's market would revolutionize the solar energy industry by dramatically reducing the balance of system (BoS) costs, and thereby reduce the need for fossil fuel generated electricity. Silicon wafer technology based on polycrystalline or monocrystalline silicon could become obsolete.
Importantly, the entire patented process for the Solar-Tectic LLC III-V tandem cell can be environmentally friendly since non-toxic metals can be used to deposit the crystalline thin-film materials for both the bottom layer in the tandem configuration as well as in the top, III-V, layer.
The technology also has great promise for LED manufacturing using for example Gallium Nitride.
A "Tandem Series" of solar cell technologies has been launched by Solar-Tectic LLC, which includes a variety of different proven semiconductor photovoltaic materials for the top layer on silicon and/or germanium bottom layers. Recently patents for a tin perovskite and germanium perovskite thin-film tandem solar cell were also granted.

Located in southwestern France, Toulouse sits on the banks of the River Garonne between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. It has been pegged the 'Pink City' (La Ville Rose) thanks to its magnificent pseudo-Roman style architecture that dates back to ancient Roman times. Today, it is a dynamic city that has become the centre of the European aviation and spacecraft industry.
In a city of this size, it can often be hard to find some peace and quiet between the backstreets, modern skyscrapers and historic buildings. Especially considering over 450,000 people live here. But there are a few places in and around Toulouse where you can escape the masses and find your zen.
Visiting the Canal du Midi is a sure way to total serenity. It is a long canal that stretches through the landscape from Toulouse all the way to the Mediterranean Sea. The vegetation surrounding the canal is quiet spectacular and attracts numerous animals. Walk along the canal and enjoy the stunning scenery, or jump aboard a boat and go for a memorable cruise.
Les Bateaux Toulousans offers cruises along the charming Canal du Midi that last anywhere from 75 minutes to five hours. Their boats cruise through the city, passing by some impressive architecture along the way. It truly is a unique way to see Toulouse and to completely find your zen.
Jardin Compans Caparelli is enchanting enough on its own, but its Japanese Garden is even more so. The Asian-inspired garden sits in the northwest corner of Jardin Compans Caparelli in a spot that is completely secluded from the rest of the world. It is a tranquil place where you can really find your zen.
The garden was inspired by 15th-century gardens in Kyoto, complete with rock gardens, koi ponds, bonsai trees and bamboo groves. It is an escape within an escape, and a beautiful place to surround yourself if you want to be in total bliss. If you are lucky enough to be staying at the Novotel Toulouse Centre Compans Caffarelli Hotel, you can request a room that boasts views right over the garden.
For the complete zen experience, get out of the city and drive north to Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val and the lovely La Roane. This is truly a haven for relaxation, rejuvenation and delight, complete with magical surroundings. The retreat sits on 20 acres of woodlands where you will hear birds chirping, frogs singing and bees buzzing.
La Roane takes only 18 guests at a time, with accommodations being in three buildings that are set around a large pool and surrounded by gardens. Your day will start with meditation and chi kung, followed by a healthy vegetarian breakfast. You will also be doing yoga twice per day and have free time in between to enjoy the environment. The day ends with an incredible three course meal that is served with wine, because you can't possibly be in France without drinking fantastic local wine.

I am sitting in a coffee shop during a Meetup called "Sit Down, Shut Up, and Write!" in order to focus on my next book (with the goal to have it released by the end of this year). After 50 minutes, I need to switch to a different project.
Since blogging is perfectly legal for this group's rules, I wanted to share three ways MeetUp groups can be used as a tool for audience development.
- Audience development is about building relationships with people. Most of us are having a more challenging time finding people that we click with. When you meet people at a Meetup, you generally are meeting in conjunction with a shared interest/topic. This way, it is an easy way to meet others that may be a good fit. For example, not only am I in a Meetup with other aspiring authors, but I have joined a classical music meetup as well as a tea group and a fictional reading group. I have met some fantastic people this way that I can keep in touch with and further my relationships with them. You can start a Meetup to help your audience members meet others that they will click with! This can be a new service that you offer as a benefit to your audiences.
- Meetups can be a great way to get to know your audiences better. Consider starting a meetup group that has a special topic your audiences would enjoy. You can create meetups to invite specific audience groups too.
- You can use the Meetup group to introduce your audiences to your art, organization, concert schedule, subscriptions, etc. Getting face to face time for introducing something new (or old) is priceless. You might have certain audience members that would love to give their opinion or help you to develop a project. Meetups are wonderful for getting your audiences more directly involved. Consider these meetups as a casual focus group. You will receive on the spot feedback and suggestions from existing and potential audience members. Also, people may bring a friend with them which is extremely valuable for audience development.
So I challenge you to quit hiding behind your website and other marketing materials and instead start meeting your audiences face to face. You will be adding social elements and opportunities to your audience development plan. Meetups can make a huge difference for audience development if you commit to them.
Cheers to happy and loyal audiences,

RD Sharma Solutions Class 11 Chapter 5
The study concerning the measurement of triangles is trigonometry. Trigonometric functions are used to relate the sides of a triangle to the angles of the said triangle. The three basic trigonometric functions are:
- Sine
- Cosine
- Tangent
In this chapter learn how to operate on and solve complex trigonometric equations using trigonometric functions.
Trigonometric Functions and their basic problems will be explained by the NCERT textbook questions and solutions, but they won't prepare you for any competitive level exam. The RD Sharma textbook will help you do that. As the level of difficulty level offered by the textbook is more than standard textbooks, it will help you to go deeper into Trigonometric Functions and help you find alternative perspectives for solving a problem. But since it is difficult, that is why we have RD Sharma solutions class 11th Chapter 5: Trigonometric Functions for you, in case you hit a snag along the way.

I would say that actually proves what I was saying; users 'want' Windows so that's what those developers are trying to deliver.DavidS wrote: ↑Tue Jun 25, 2019 10:47 pmHaving spoke with many Windows users since last looking at this thread (trying to learn), I would disagree with you.hippy wrote: ↑Mon Mar 04, 2019 6:39 pmI would expect those striving to get Windows 10 Desktop to work on ARM or a Pi are doing that, rather than helping get ReactOS ported, because they believe that's what most people are wanting, where the kudos and critical acclaim lies. I imagine their response might be; why are people working on React OS when Windows is what people want ?
It seems that most of them believe that Windows is the only option, because it came with there computer.
That 'want' may be misguided but that's how it is.
If users can be convinced to 'want' ReactOS, or anything non-Windows, then developers would move towards delivering that.
People all have their own view on what they consider "better". One can only hope to persuade them differently.
The driving forces for people considering Windows "better" is mostly down to it being familiar, their having invested effort in being able to use it, and preferring to be using one thing rather than different things.
Such self-inflicted lock-in is not uncommon, and not entirely unreasonable, and it is very difficult to get people to break themselves out of such lock-in. That something else may be better isn't the only factor in play.

How to Lose Weight and Keep it Off
– My Own Story!
How I Lost Weight and kept it off – for good!
Way back in time as a teen (and even pre-teen) I led a relatively active life with hobbies from military modelling to coarse angling and photography. Not to mention being the main fruit picker who was required to climb to the top of any one of 14 fruit trees during the harvest. As you can imagine they kept me pretty busy not forgetting the 3 mile walk to school everyday or cycling to my friends house at weekends – a round trip of around 10 miles, cycling around with other friends to neighbouring villages and beyond.
I wasn't overweight by any means. To be honest, I was the 'skinny one' in our family and knew about it. Don't get me wrong – I had a healthy appetite. If we had a barbecue in the back garden it would be a generous affair with lots of salad, rice, potatos, various meats……. More than enough for a healthy family of 4 plus dog. It wouldn't have been a normal 'barbie' if I didn't go round the table a couple of times for second helpings, or even thirds!! It was during these formative years I had noticed the majority of both my immediate family and secondary relatives (aunts, uncles etc) were notably stouter than myself.
Indeed, on at least one occasion noted an excess amount of saturated animal fat in the roasting tin. It was this vision that really sparked my interests in eating a healthier diet – away from all the excess animal fats. Whilst I would argue that animal fats can be beneficial, excessive amounts are not. One phrase ingrained in me by my dear mother – "everything in moderation" was observed – especially when applied to food. Pity I didn't heed that notion during my physical exercise later on!
Subconsciously, I had placed myself on a mission to eat healthily without being fanatical. I was not to be a vegetarian or vegan when it came to diet – just good habits of eating relatively wholesome foods. Indeed, at the age of 15 I was stir frying Chinese food inspired by watching the new trend of Chinese food coming to the fore by the legend that is Ken Hom.
I had a wok, Ken Hom's book and several other cookery books to hand enabling me to provide an alternative, tasty and varied menu to our diet – chow-mein, sweet and sour dishes including sweet and sour kidney flowers, steamed fish……the list goes on. Chinese food, Indian curries, Italian dishes, French, Mexican in amongst our regular British dishes – roasts (typically with a selection of root and brassica vegetables (cauliflower cheese, leeks in cheese sauce…..). The list of international cuisines featured regularly in our diet providing an eclectic mix of healthy cuisines prepared in a healthy manner – from raw ingredients. With this great variety of foods (including some that are designated less healthy ie pasta) our individual body weights grew but not ….excessively.
I stayed relatively lean, perhaps in part due to the active lifestyle I was involved in. Being an active contributor to the household chores aswell as my own activities had it's impact on my weight. Preparing a main meal (of my own volition and designation) would involve a healthy fat burning mile walk into town, then back followed by hours energetically preparing and cooking the meal.
A point of note, many people complain about the amount of effort it takes to create a decent meal – yet that very effort contributes to your individual fat burning process. Yes, we need to consume food for nutrition and our daily energy intake, but the main lesson here comes from physics and the laws of energy conservation. Energy cannot be destroyed – but changed from one form to another. Consuming more energy than we expend has to result in energy being stored within our system with some variation dependant upon our own, individual metabolism.
It was on this basis, that I never complained about the energy consumed creating the meal in the first place. Marriage came and with it the usual settlement of ones activities and lifestyle into a less active one – the usual and mundane sit for tea with the soaps on tv! The weight piled on.
My health declined with the weight gain and lack of physical activity (apart from a physically demanding job). less than a decade later I was divorced. Stressed to high heaven, with an unhealthy beer belly I had to get myself sorted and back towards the me I used to know – slim and trim! That saw the real start (or re-start) of my healthy eating and living rationale. So it was down to the leisure centre once a week to burn some fat off with a very vigorous 3 hr session including 20 – 40 minutes of squash followed by a full hours aerobic exercise in the gym and an hour in the pool for a general tone up and cool down. I was on the wagon – the cardio wagon! With the cleaner, healthier low calorie diet with and lots of gruelling cardio exercises I lost the weight – and paid the price.
Calorie Counting for Energy INTAKE!
I never counted calories to lose weight – quite the opposite. I was counting calories to ensure I had just enough intake to survive – literally. Literally counting every cup of coffee to ensure I had at least 1000 calories per day in energy intake (the average cup of coffee with milk and 2 sugars carries approx 100 calories – I was on 5-10 cups/day). Now, I have gained much experience, knowledge and more importantly attitude towards my diet and fitness.
Indeed, my overall health [albeit some damage has already been done through all the cardio vascular exercising I had done (more on that subject in my upcoming book – "How Cardio Damaged My Heart")] improved.
To that end I urge you to take your health more seriously. If you are serious about losing even a few pounds of weight or are seriously overweight and in desperate need of guidance and resources, please take the time to browse through the blog, take note of what I have been through to lose weight (and especially my beer belly), what I have learned over the years and how with today's knowledge, you can lose weight quickly and efficiently – if you follow the rules.
Lessons Learned – How Weight is Gained (and Lost Effectively)
I understand what it can take to lose weight – and keep it off. I also appreciate we are not all the same – each one of us leads a different life with different aspirations and interests but hopefully I can guide you through the process and show you how to lose weight and keep it off for good! You may want / need a combination of 3 elements – a healthy fat burning diet, appropriate highly effective fat burning exercises and detox to remove the chemicals used in mass processing which end up in your gut causing excess, stubborn viceral fat to be created and deposited.
Nutritional and sports science has come a long way in the last decade – it is this new found knowledge that enlightened me to understand how I lost the belly fat, lost weight and through lack of information and sheer zeal overworked the cardio. I don't want you to suffer the same ordeal as I had to!
Creating Fat Loss Quest has been (in some regards) an eye opener for me, particularly in the arena of sports science and physiology, not to mention nutritional science. It is my passion – creating a healthy life from good nutrition and fast, highly effective fat burning exercises. I don't have time for ineffective, time consuming and otherwise demanding workout routines. Life is for living – not for spending down the gym 3,4 or 5 hrs/week just to burn fat off and stay fit!
Take my advice, read the info I have (and will continue to provide) request my fat burning report access is available on several pages / posts, join in our social networks (facebook, twitter and more to follow) and spread the word about – Phil's in town!!
Take care. Take very good care!!
PS:- I am still astounded Medical Professionals (esp GP's still refer people with excess weight to Cardio in some vain attempt at getting their weight down – especially when their own industry colleagues have published information proving cardio can be hazardous to your health!

Continuing to follow our handy online vortex guide, we trekked out to Red Rock Crossing/Cathedral Rock in the late afternoon.
I had hoped to go swimming but as it was nearing dusk little tiny bugs were hopping all over the surface of the water. No, thank you.
Instead, we walked around very slowly and my mom planked. (In case you don't know what that is, planking is a ridiculous trend that has since been replaced by owling or some such. Planking: a person lies flat across a random object or area).
We didn't walk far enough to find the spot where the vortex was reported to be, but we did see some lovely views, relax by the water and watch my mom plank, so I think this was a success.
I've already written about how the spiders stopped us from continuing on our journey, so I'll just quote myself. What? It feels quite strange to write that.
"I suggest hiking Red Rock Crossing during the day time, when you can swim in the creek. We went at dusk and the bugs were coming out. When we were ready to walk deeper into the forested area, the spiders started coming out. I swear, it was like something out of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, when Hagrid tells Harry to follow the spiders, and there are little black spiders EVERYWHERE.
This makes me a total Harry Potter nerd, but my brother also knew what I was talking about so at least I'm not alone
My sister was walking toward the forest as spiders were crawling out of holes on both sides of the path. That was our cue to get the hell out of there."
We walked a ways down the path and found an adorable couple, also visiting Sedona, sitting together with their feet dipped in the cool water. We talked to them a bit, but I snapped this before we interrupted their peace.

Moby Live Acoustic Show
While also spinning at The Mansion during Art Basel, Moby's Fri. night show is his must-see performance. The electronic pioneer will provide a rare glimpse into his normally unaffected creations by stepping out from behind the DJ booth to perform acoustic interpretations of his music. Moby's emotive baritone and guitar picking skills provide an impressive contrast to the music that made him famous and prove his versatility as an artist. While early bird tickets have sold out and demand has driven up the price, this show is well worth the $48 to get in.

Nature, in the broadest sense, is the natural, physical, or material world or universe. "Nature" can refer to the phenomena of the physical world, and also to life in general. The study of nature is a large part of science. Although humans are part of nature, human activity is often understood as a separate category from other natural phenomena.
The word nature is derived from the Latin word natura, or "essential qualities, innate disposition", and in ancient times, literally meant "birth".Natura is a Latin translation of the Greek word physis (φύσις), which originally related to the intrinsic characteristics that plants, animals, and other features of the world develop of their own accord. The concept of nature as a whole, the physical universe, is one of several expansions of the original notion; it began with certain core applications of the word φύσις by pre-Socratic philosophers, and has steadily gained currency ever since. This usage continued during the advent of modern scientific method in the last several centuries.
Nature is a British interdisciplinary scientific journal, first published on 4 November 1869. It was ranked the world's most cited scientific journal by the Science Edition of the 2010 Journal Citation Reports, is ascribed an impact factor of approximately 42.4, and is widely regarded as one of the few remaining academic journals that publishes original research across a wide range of scientific fields.Nature claims an online readership of about 3 million unique readers per month. The journal has a weekly circulation of around 53,000 but studies have concluded that on average a single copy is shared by as many as eight people.
Research scientists are the primary audience for the journal, but summaries and accompanying articles are intended to make many of the most important papers understandable to scientists in other fields and the educated public. Towards the front of each issue are editorials, news and feature articles on issues of general interest to scientists, including current affairs, science funding, business, scientific ethics and research breakthroughs. There are also sections on books and arts. The remainder of the journal consists mostly of research papers (articles or letters), which are often dense and highly technical. Because of strict limits on the length of papers, often the printed text is actually a summary of the work in question with many details relegated to accompanying supplementary material on the journal's website.
Mother Nature (sometimes known as Mother Earth or the Earth-Mother), is a common personification of nature that focuses on the life-giving and nurturing aspects of nature by embodying it ,in the form of the mother.
The word "nature" comes from the Latin word, "natura," meaning birth or character (see nature (innate)). In English its first recorded use (in the sense of the entirety of the phenomena of the world) was in 1266 A.D.. "Natura", and the personification of Mother Nature, was widely popular in the Middle Ages. As a concept, seated between the properly divine and the human, it can be traced to Ancient Greece, though Earth (or "Eorthe" in the Old English period) may have been personified as a goddess. The Norse also had a goddess called Jord (or Earth).
The earliest written dated literal references to the term "Mother Earth" occur in Mycenaean Greek. Ma-ka (transliterated as ma-ga), "Mother Gaia", written in Linear B syllabic script (13th or 12th century BC). The various myths of nature goddesses such as Inanna/Ishtar (myths and hymns attested on Mesopotamian tablets as early as the 3rd millennium BC) show that the personification of the creative and nurturing sides of nature as female deities has deep roots. In Greece, the pre-Socratic philosophers had "invented" nature when they abstracted the entirety of phenomena of the world as singular: physis, and this was inherited by Aristotle. Later medieval Christian thinkers did not see nature as inclusive of everything, but thought that she had been created by God; her place lay on earth, below the unchanging heavens and moon. Nature lay somewhere in the center, with agents above her (angels), and below her (demons and hell). For the medieval mind she was only a personification, not a goddess.

In a land of dangers, plant-eating animals are always at risk, and never more so than at the time of their birth; out on the open they are vulnerable and there are few places to hide. But luckily some are born to run… Out on the African plains life can get off to a shaky start. Millions of baby wildebeests, zebras and antelopes are born at the same time. All of them must struggle to their feet in minutes. They must master their legs and be ready to run with the herd. If they don't they will be picked off by predators like lions, cheetahs, or crocodiles. Whatever their role in life, little ones will face one challenge after another, whether it's trying to keep up with the herd during migration, getting stuck in the mud during a drought, being separated from its mother, panicking in bad weat...
The Global Wildlife Travel Index scored Thailand in fourth place in the world, the highest in all of Asia. Only the US, Venezuela, and Brazil scored higher in the index created by True Luxury Travel. Thailand scored a seven – the highest possible score – in the categories analysing its conservation of megafauna (or large animals), its number of national parks, and its number of natural history museums. The country also scored five in the other categories assessing its biodiversity, the number of protected natural areas, and its "national park pioneers" placement (which ranks countries based on their oldest national park).

All would have remained nothing if not for the Mother of Nature! This short was originally very simple. The simple concept of the miracle and indifference of Nature. How it can be both beautiful and tragic. I initially planned this to be a short tech-demo of sorts, (maybe 1-2 minutes long) expanding what I could do within the confines of my particular animation art-style. It steadily grew into its own fully fledged short film. I've learned a lot from working on this short and I think it's one of my prettiest to date.

Nature, in the broadest sense, is the natural, physical, or material world or universe. "Nature" can refer to the phenomena of the physical world, and also to life in general. The study of nature is a large part of science. Although humans are part of nature, human activity is often understood as a separate category from other natural phenomena.
The word nature is derived from the Latin word natura, or "essential qualities, innate disposition", and in ancient times, literally meant "birth".Natura is a Latin translation of the Greek word physis (φύσις), which originally related to the intrinsic characteristics that plants, animals, and other features of the world develop of their own accord. The concept of nature as a whole, the physical universe, is one of several expansions of the original notion; it began with certain core applications of the word φύσις by pre-Socratic philosophers, and has steadily gained currency ever since. This usage continued during the advent of modern scientific method in the last several centuries.

Budget Realities and the State of the Union
The State of the Union address offers an insight into the budget and policy battles that animate the coming year. I watched it with my 6th grade daughter, who despite growing annoyance with the frequency of applause, was surprised by the number of times the president mentioned the future. I was struck by the way President Obama got it exactly right in identifying our long term problems – innovation and productivity.
In past speeches, he spent much time talking about how to slice our economic pie differently. In this speech he talked about making it bigger. If he follows through with action, this is a monumental shift in focus that his friends on the left will find discomfiting.
Like the president, I am very optimistic about the future. Also, like many others of our generation, I am inspired by the things a good and solvent government can do. I recognize that many things we collectively want won't always emerge in free markets. Our federal government can do and does embark on great ventures. I am not alarmed by big dreams, even if I am skeptical.
What worried me most about the president's speech was not what he said, but what he didn't. The president's budget proposals barely recognized the straightened federal budget circumstances that will continue to afflict the nation for at least a decade. A budget freeze and earmark ban is both simpleminded and trivial. These things divert our attention from the real heart of the matter. It's like putting a nice coat of wax on a Vega. While everyone is appalled at the size of the federal budget, that's not really the problem. The real predicament is the scope of government. If we can get a handle on what government should do, and more importantly, should not do, we can begin to right our budget. Even so, it will take big cuts for a long time. Immediately we are going to have to make significant cuts to such things as Medicaid and engineer long-term adjustments to Medicare and Social Security. Most of us are going to have to be more responsible for our own futures. It will mean far less defense spending on big ticket items and a network of high speed rail will have to be left for another generation; we cannot now afford it.
We also have to fix our tax system – income, corporate and payroll. For some, that will mean more taxes; for most, less. We will have to have a tax system that has low rates on a broad base – the real definition of fairness.
Sadly, though his diagnosis was right, the president's prescription offers too much of the wrong medicine. This year alone, our government increased our debt by $9,200 for every household. Talk of innovation and productivity is encouraging, but the best way to out-innovate the world in the short run is to simply get out of the way of entrepreneurs, innovators and producers. We have to start by reducing their debt burden.

Beer Law: The Distribution Problem For Craft Brewers In Nevada
November 7, 2016
By: Bryan J. Ure
Murchison & Cumming Blog: Post 85
For Nevada brewers, the largest obstacle to profiting from their product is the frustrating inability to distribute it without the help of a commercial distributor. This frustration is compounded by the fact that it is counter-intuitive to the nature of brewing which often times can be a labor intensive and a grass-roots process. Many brewers would be more than willing to load up their trucks with kegs and sell the product themselves, but simply cannot in light of current Nevada law. Obtaining rights to a commercial distributor is not an easy answer either. It is a costly and often times nearly insurmountable task for a microbrewery, except for those already in the game. The irony is that many of the major craft beer producers today who use commercial distributors attained the ability to do so only because they were successful as self-distributors very early on. Despite the current self-distribution legal stranglehold in Nevada, there are some solutions.
Nevada's law against self-distribution is only one sentence long, and is codified as Nev. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 369.382:
Except as otherwise provided in NRS 369.386 and 369.415, a supplier shall not engage in the business of importing, wholesaling or retailing alcoholic beverages in this State.
For purposes of this statute, a brewer who makes beer in Nevada is considered a "supplier". A supplier cannot sell beer unless they have an agreement for distribution with a state-licensed distributor (369.386 and 369.415). As one might imagine, a distributor holds the power, and obtaining the rights to use them can be a cost-prohibitive endeavor. Most mircobreweries likely do not have the production volume or expenses to compete in a market dominated by the large breweries in this country. In short, this means good luck getting your beer on your local grocer's shelf space.
The above prohibition raises an obvious question, can Nevada brewers sell their product to the public in a cost-effective manner without the use of a commercial distributor? The answer is yes, and effectively so. In fact, the manner in which sale of craft beer is permitted in Nevada is ideally suited to the craft beer consumer and current trends. If you would like further information on how to legally retail beer in Nevada, or need legal counseling on starting or running your brewery, our attorneys can help.

It was perhaps the caveman that first used pictures to tell stories of their hunt and tell their kin about the animals they saw on their chase. Fast-forward a few thousand years and we have story tellers like the great STAN LEE (EXCELSIOR!!) telling us stories of the world, that are so fantastic; they can only exist in our heads all through pictures! And that, ladies and gentlemen in a comic! The comic books that have not only produced instantly recognizable super-figures but also the most loved ones have touched us in a manner that we still love to collect few editions of it.
Top Ten Most Expensive Comic Books
So read on to know the popular comic volumes that have been regarded as the top ten most expensive comics books in the world.
1. Action Comics # 1
Introducing many of the comic book heroes, Action Comics #1 is undoubtedly the most expensive comic book till date. Slashed at $1,390,000 the volume was published on 18th April, 1938 as the first comic book. Superman being one of the superheroes of the book, Action Comics #1 had a wide ranging circulation, estimated to be more than $2 million. Though, it took birth 76 years ago, the book still continues to be a favorite among young and old comic fans.
2. Detective Comics # 27
Regarded as the one to conceive Batman, Detective Comics #27 is a part of the Detective Comics series – an American comic book initiated in 1937 by the DC Comics. The volume came up during the summers of 1939 and was sold out for $1, 380,000. What caught the fantasy of the readers was the appearance of the Dark Knight in a black-grey getup and solving the homicidal case of a prosperous businessman. Since then, batman has ruled in the hearts of his fans and the Detective Comics #27, still a hit.
3. Superman # 1
Featuring the popular DC Comics super-character of the same name, Superman #1 was published in 1939 by National Allied Publications owing to the widespread popularity of the character in Action Comics #1. With a price tag of $671, 000; the volume falls one among the top 10 expensive comic books in the world. Though it was not Superman first appearance among his fans but the fact that the volume has been entirely dedicated to him, made his followers go gaga over it.
4. All American Comics # 16
The beginning of a new comic hero – the Green Lantern started off with the publication of All American Comics #16 and this has made the volume a valuable comic book – $430, 000. It was launched in 1939 and became an instant hit. The volume was about Alan Scott, a railway engineer and how one day he came across a mysterious lantern offering him immense power to fight back injustice taking place in his metropolis.
5. Detective Comics # 1
The reason why we find Detective Comics #1 among the record of most expensive comic books is the fact that it was responsible for starting the DC Comic world. Though its content is not that of significance, comic followers love to keep it a part of their collection just because it was the first issue by reputed comic publisher. The estimated value of the volume is $405, 000.
6. Marvel Comics # 1
Started in 1939 by the Timely Publications, Marvel Comics made the comics fan meet with another champion from the fantasy world – the Human Torch. The volume landed up becoming one amid the most expensive comic books as it was bought for $367, 000. The character was not a human, in fact an android and this has grabbed the attention of the readers intensely. With the launch of the volume, Marvel Comics started its journey to be a leading comic publisher.
7. Batman # 1
Just like Superman, even batman became notoriously admired once he appeared in Detective Comics #27. The hype for the superhero demanded the introduction of Batman #1, the first volume of the Batman Comic series. The book was issued during the 1940 spring and had cost $359, 000. Though it was distributed quarterly, initially, later on it became bimonthly and now it is available monthly. It involved the character's adventure with the Joker and the Cat-Woman.
8. More Fun Comics # 52
The fictional character, Spectre made an exclusive his entry in this volume that was launched in 1940. Though the character had been seen in other comic books, previously, what made this volume to be caught up in the hype was its new method of comic writing and adventure narration. Bernard Baily and Jerry Siegel were responsible for the creation of the super-character, costing the volume $316, 000. No doubt, it is counted as one of the top 10 expensive comic books till date.
9. Flash Comics # 1
The first publication from the 104 issues of Comic Flash series, this particular one was marketed at $289, 000 due to the debut of popular characters such as Flash and Hawkman. The anthology comic book was set out by All American Publications for the public in 1940. While batman and Superman was responsible for creating a revolution among the American comic superhero images, the Flash Comics is regarded as being lifted from Roman and Greek mythology.
10. Amazing Fantasy # 15
Speaking about the birth of the well liked comic hero- Spiderman, Amazing Fantasy #15 takes in the credit and this has made the volume to cost around $280, 000. It is another anthology comic volume of American origin that was launched by Marvel Comics. Though readers have made fun of the timid character – Peter Parker, they have equally loved and admired his altered image of a superhero saving the town from the wrongs.
