BOSTON, MA – January 17, 2012 – Graphene, touted as the next wunderkind material because of its extraordinary properties, will grow to a $126 million market in 2020, from its $9 million base in 2012, according to Lux Research. While an impressive debut for a new material, this growth is less than some of the hype may suggest.
The bulk of this market will belong to graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs), used mainly in composites and energy storage applications. However, graphene films, despite being a hot research area, will be delayed by a slew of technical and economic challenges."The rocky history of carbon nanotubes shows that a research and patent boom along with impressive technical performance is far from a guarantee of commercial success," said Ross Kozarsky, Lux Research Senior Analyst and the lead author of the report titled, "Is Graphene the Next Silicon … Or Just the Next Carbon Nanotube?" "Major challenges like high costs, processing issues, and competing materials loom large," he added.
Lux Research also positioned graphene technology developers on the Lux Innovation Grid based on their Technical Value and Business Execution – companies that are strong on both axes reach the "Dominant" quadrant. It also assessed each company's maturity, and provided an overall Lux Take. Among their findings:
- XG, Vorbeck lead the pack. "Dominant" XG Sciences and Vorbeck Materials will continue to rule among GNP start-ups, albeit with different commercialization tactics. Vorbeck has moved down the value chain into selling higher margin conductive inks, while XG supplies GNPs to corporate channel partners.
- Too early to tell on second wave of start-ups. Newer start-ups – like Graphene Technologies, Grafoid, National Nanomaterials, Xolve and Haydale – have entered the landscape with bold claims of cheaper and better graphene. All are still ranked as "High-potential" or "Long-shot" with a lack of solid traction in any application.
- Films face significant hurdles. Graphene films companies such as Bluestone Global Tech, Graphene Frontiers, Graphenea and Graphene Labs still face commercialization challenges. All are at the low end of the business execution spectrum, and a true leader has yet to emerge.
The report, titled "Is Graphene the Next Silicon … Or Just the Next Carbon Nanotube?" is part of the Lux Research Advanced Materials Intelligence service.

DfT needed a trusted provider to deliver technical 3rd line support to our Business Intelligence team. itelligence provided the Department with a high quality support service, with a thorough and comprehensive on-boarding service. They have been keen to understand our key business drivers and offered dedicated technical support when technical issues arose, responding to our service tickets in a quick and professional manner.
Sarah Baskerville, Head of BI Systems, Department for Transport
The Department for Transport (DfT) is responsible for providing policy, guidance and funding to local authorities in the UK to help them run and maintain their road networks, improve passenger and freight travel, and develop new major transport schemes. Additionally the department works to maintain high standards of safety and security in transport and also to make our roads less congested and polluted by promoting lower carbon transport, including cycling and walking.
The Department works with 19 agencies, trading funds and central government bodies to support the transport network that undeniably links UK's businesses and gets people and goods travelling around the country.

About the Project
The DfT were aware of the capability of SAP BPC following a small deployment within one of their operating divisions and undertook a business case review to see if an enterprise wide deployment of SAP BPC would meet with public sector best value criteria. Following this economic test, the Department undertook to deploy SAP BPC and built an in-house team to effectively use the solution. It was apparent that specialised skills were missing from the team and the Department turned to itelligence to assist. itelligence reviewed SAP BPC against business requirements and introduced SAP BPC expertise to the in-house team to help train and upskill DfT staff to effectively run SAP BPC.
Sarah Baskerville, Head of BI Systems, DfT commented "itelligence was able to give us access to specialist SAP BPC resources when we needed them. This has allowed the Department to spend more time enhancing and optimising rather than simply administering the SAP BPC system."
As a result, the DfT has been able to leverage their current SAP BPC architecture to provide a single version of the truth with consistent data inputs. With automated reporting through standard processes, DfT now produce monthly reporting across all relevant stakeholders (Board, DG Groups, Directors) for both Finance and HR. The Department now uses one solution, leveraging SAP BPC to support reporting and SAP BPC is now regarded as a business critical MI system.

What Maisie Knew
Millennium, $28.99; Blu-ray, $29.99
Available on VOD beginning Aug. 13
It's tough enough to have a normal childhood in the cramped bustle of the big city, but even harder when being shuttled back and forth between two parents who hate each other and are too busy with their careers to be actual guardians. In co-director Scott McGehee and David Siegel's adaptation of Henry James' novel "What Maisie Knew" (scripted by Nancy Doyne and Carroll Cartwright), Onata Aprile plays a little girl who gets lost in the shuffle when her mom and dad split up and take new lovers. "What Maisie Knew" tells the story from Maisie's point of view, capturing both the terrifying hugeness of her surroundings and the exaggerated indifference of her folks (played by Julianne Moore and Steve Coogan). The melodrama is overdone, but true to the way a child experiences the world. McGehee and Siegel provide a commentary track and a few deleted scenes to the DVD and Blu-ray.
PHOTOS: Hollywood backlot moments
A Band Called Death
Image/Drafthouse, $27.97; Blu-ray, $29.97
Detroit is known as the home of Motown, but in the late '60s and early '70s, the city played host to a couple of seminal proto-punk bands, the Stooges and the MC5. Three African American brothers were inspired by those groups to form the band Death, shifting from funk and R&B to raging, experimental rock songs that too few people wanted to buy. The documentary "A Band Called Death" tells the story of Death's short run, and what happened when the trio's long-forgotten, ahead-of-its-time music was rediscovered a few years back. As with the excellent recent music docs "Searching for Sugar Man" and "Anvil: The Story of Anvil," "A Band Called Death" is as inspiring as it is tuneful. The DVD and Blu-ray add more than two hours of featurettes and bonus footage.
The Muppet Movie
Disney/Buena Vista, $19.99; Blu-ray, $26.50
Puppeteer Jim Henson was making playfully experimental short films in the '60s, at the same time that he and his "Muppets" were becoming regular guests on talk and variety shows, so it's no surprise that when the '70s syndicated series "The Muppet Show" became a worldwide hit, Henson leveraged that success into making a feature film. "The Muppet Movie" is as bright, smart and self-referential as everything else he did in his career. The new "Nearly 35th Anniversary" Blu-ray edition includes only a couple of brief featurettes and some interactive goofery, which doesn't pay enough respect to one of the best films of its era. But the movie alone is worth the money; it's a funny, good-spirited, semi-true story about showbiz puppets that travel to Hollywood to make people happy.
The Mindy Project: Season One
Universal, $29.98
It took about half a season for comedian Mindy Kaling's Fox sitcom, "The Mindy Project," to find its voice, but by the end of its first year, it had become one of the most reliably funny and distinctive series on network television. The original premise had Kaling playing a New York OB/GYN whose ideas of relationships and city living had been shaped by bad romantic comedies; and although that remained at the heart of the show, it began focusing more on the heroine's cohorts (played by Chris Messina and Ike Barinholtz), and ultimately, "The Mindy Project" became about how middle-aged urbanites adjust to the compromised version of their intended lives. The Season 1 DVD set adds deleted scenes to the original 24 episodes.
The Big Wedding

The Inimitable Fite's First Commercial Release in 2+ Years Proceeded by U.S Tour with Primus Vet Les Claypool
Tim Fite, the genre-bending craftsman called a "cultural gadfly" by the New York Times, has announced the release of the follow-up to his 2005 album Gone Ain't Gone. The Brooklyn-based Fite put out several web-only, critically acclaimed releases in 2007, but Fair Ain't Fair is his first studio recording since his heralded Anti- Records debut.
Anyone familiar with Fite's work knows that the term "studio recording" is used in the loosest sense of the word. He famously mines long-forgotten records for useful scraps of music, which he then forges into his own tunes, often rendering them indistinguishable from, and unrelated to, their former selves. Fair Ain't Fair again sees a large amount of musical chop-shopping, but the samples are utilized in a more restrained, mature way. An example: Fite recorded violist Marla Hansen (of Sufjan Stevens' Illinoisemakers and My Brightest Diamond), and from that, created a sweetly discordant loop on which to anchor his sharp, self-effacing lyrics. Fair Ain't Fair also finds Fite expanding on the use of his voice, layering track upon track to create a Pet Sounds-esque vocal performance. Still, each was painstakingly recorded in his bedroom.
Fair Ain't Fair is a natural progression of Fite's earlier work, but feels much more expansive. The topics of greed and consumerism so wittily expounded upon on his self-released Over the Counter Culture are in there, but surrounded by catchy pop (yes, pop!) songs and sweet two minute modern hymns, they seem less vitriolic, more forgivably human.
Fite also recently announced a three week tour with fellow nonconformist Les Claypool. The Fite/Claypool tour kicks off on March 18th in Denver, CO. In preparation, Tim Fite will be playing a number of shows at the famed South By Southwest Music festival, including the Anti Records showcase on March 13th at Cedar Street Courtyard with labelmates Devotchka, Man Man and Billy Bragg, among others.
Tim Fite tour dates:
Mar-12 to Mar-16 - Austin TX - SXSW Mar-18 - Denver CO - Ogden Theatre Mar-20 - Minneapolis MN - First Avenue Mar-21 - Milwaukee WI - Eagles Club Mar-22 - Chicago IL - Vic Theatre Mar-25 - Tulsa OK - Cain's Ballroom Mar-27 - Dallas TX - House of Blues Mar-28 - Houston TX - Warehouse Live Mar-29 - Austin TX - Stubb's BBQ Apr-01 - Tuscon AZ - Rialto Theater Apr-02 - San Diego CA - House of Blues Apr-04 - Los Angeles CA - The Wiltern Apr-05 - San Francisco CA - The Warfield

I am taking a look at the the following problem: We pick 2 cards at random from a standard deck of cards. Find $P(\text{both aces}| \text{first card is ace})$. I already know that the answer should be computed as follows:
$P(\text{both aces} | \text{first card is ace}) = \dfrac{P(\text{both aces} \cap \text{first card is ace})}{P(\text{first card is ace})} = \dfrac{P(\text{both aces})}{P(\text{first card is ace})} = \dfrac{\binom{4}{2}/\binom{52}{2}}{1-\binom{48}{2}/\binom{52}{2}} = \dfrac{1}{33}$
But my intuition tells me that if I already picked one ace, there are just 3 aces left in the remaining 51 cards which leads to a probability of $\dfrac{1}{17}$. Why is this reasoning wrong?

BEIRUT (Reuters) - Rockets struck eastern districts of Aleppo, Syria's biggest city, on Friday, killing at least 29 people and trapping a family of 10 in the ruins of their home, activists in the city said.
"There are families buried under the rubble," said an activist called Baraa al-Youssef, speaking by Skype after visiting the scene in his Ard al-Hamra neighborhood.
"Nothing can describe it, it's a horrible sight."
Video footage posted by several activists showed a burning building and people carrying the wounded to cars to be ferried to hospital. It was hard to gauge the scale of the damage in the night-time footage but rubble was clearly visible on the ground.
Rami Abdulrahman of the British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said three explosions shook Aleppo and reported at least 29 people had been killed. Another 150 were wounded, he said, and the final death toll was likely to be higher.
Youssef said 30 houses were destroyed by a single rocket.
On Tuesday activists said at least 20 people were killed when a large missile of the same type as Russian-made Scuds hit the rebel-held district of Jabal Badro.

Watching Our Backs
See Acumen_Databases and Database_Relations_in_Acumen.
Currently, we are storing archival content (described here: formats on a Linux server, in the directory structure described here: Organization_of_completed_content_for_long-term_storage. Content which we want included in LOCKSS (ADPNET) is linked into Manifests (as described here: File_Naming_and_Linking_for_LOCKSS.
Once this archival content is placed into storage, anything linked into the Manifest.html pages should NOT be changed. However, since our new delivery platform derives from this stored content, we need to be able to update the metadata as needed. Hence, the primary metadata file is copied as a versioned file, and the versioned file is what is linked into the Manifests for LOCKSS pickup. The metadata file which is NOT versioned is the most recent, and over-writeable, copy.
MD5 Checksums
For the content which is not allowed to change, we have scripts running weekly to verify that the md5 checksum has not changed, prior to the full tape backup. If there's an error, we are notified in time to retrieve a good copy from a previous backup, before the corrupted item can be written to tape.
On libcontent, in /srv/scripts/md5/cya/, the script which calculates and checks sums is called "md5check".
First it looks for new holder areas (such as u0001, u0003, etc. in the archive). If there are any, it sets up a new location for checksums for that holder. Within each holder directory in the checksums area, there's a file for each collection. Each collection's file contains all the checksums for that collection.
Second, md5check goes through each holder area in turn, checking collections one at a time. If the collection exists, it checks the checksums for each file. If they have changed, it outputs an error. While traversing the archive it notes new content, and generates checksums for those before going on to the next collection.
Third, if any new collections were noted in the holder area, the script creates collection md5 files and generates checksums for the content before going on to the next holder area.
Fourth, the script goes through the new holder areas, finds new collections, notes any new content in existing collections.
The script then logs in with the checkscripts database to verify that it ran, the timestamp, and any errors.
Following this script, another script named storeFileSums runs. This one goes through all the gathered checksums, compares them to the ones in the md5sums mysql database, verifies (again) that nothing has changed, and enters new checksums that are found, with a timestamp.
This database is backed up monthly, and regular copies kept on libcontent.lib.ua.edu.
Errors are sent to firstname.lastname@example.com and email@example.com.
This script also logs in with the checkscripts database to verify that it ran, the timestamp, and any errors.
Automated Script Verifications
Once a week, a script called "checkscripts" on libcontent.lib.ua.edu in /srv/scripts/cya looks through the entries in the checkscripts database for the past week, and compares them with the list of entries of existing cron scripts and when they are due to run.
The checkscripts database consists of 2 tables: "ran" and "scripts." Ran contains an auto-incrementing primary key (num), scriptid (identifier for the script, again a number), datestamp (for when this script ran) and errors.
Scripts contains a numerical id (which corresponds to the scriptid in "ran"), scriptname, server, directory where the script resides, the cron job that calls it, and a textual description of when it runs ("runswhen") and what it does ("doeswhat") as well as names of any scripts that it precedes (preceeds) or succeeds (succeeds) in order to work properly.
If any scripts did NOT run, which were scheduled, or any of them logged errors, this script sends emails to notify us of problems. It also sends email to reassure us that all scripts ran on time (and if any extra runs were logged). Of course, this script also logs in with the checkscripts database to verify that it ran, and when.
Database Backups
Since the checksums are backed up in a MySQL database, and a second MySQL database manages the scripts, there's a cron script (called "backups") on libcontent.lib.ua.edu (in /srv/scripts/cya/; backups go into /srv/backups/ ) which backs up selected databases monthly. The script deletes backups over a year old.
Currently the list of databases backed up on libcontent.lib.ua.edu is this:
- InfoTrack ( see Tracking_for_the_long_term)
- mysql
- acumen
- md5sums ( for more info, see Tracking_for_the_long_term, Image_Technical_Metadata and Audio_Technical_Metadata
- checkscripts
- acumen_staging (the test database for Acumen)
Critical File Backups
The Windows Share drive has a curious property in that any space not needed by current content is used for "shadow copies" (backups) of recently changed files. However, sometimes we have critical files that we do not touch for months; yet if they disappear, it can be a nightmare to try to reconstruct them (as we discovered with the Woodward master spreadsheet, for example). Files that go untouched will not have shadow copies, and hence have no backup.
Therefore, we have a system for capturing these files. In S:\Digital Projects\Administrative\EMERGENCY there is a spreadsheet called critical_files.xlsx, which contains 3 columns: document title, location (a file path), and type ("File Folder" needs to be indicated here if all subfiles are to be included). This is where we document what our critical files are. Whenever this changes, a new tab-delimited export must be made and placed in the same directory ("critical_files.txt"). All of these files and directories must have names that work on Linux: no spaces, commas, or punctuation other than underscores, periods, and hyphens.
Once a week, on the libcontent server, a script called "critFiles" (in /srv/scripts/cya/) picks up this list and crawls these directories, comparing the files with the copies in /srv/backups/criticalFiles/. Each file in these directories has a datestamp attached to the file name, after an underscore. If the most recent copy there does not match the current version, a new version is created in this directory.
If a file in the backup system does NOT exist any more on the share drive, an error message is emailed out to the Head of Metadata & Digital Services and uadigitalservices gmail account.
Wiki Backups
Since we rely heavily on this wiki, if the network goes down or the server is compromised, we want access to a copy. Therefore, a script called grabWiki in /srv/scripts/crawler collects the wiki pages once a month, translates them into html and corrects the internal links, then does 2 things with them:
- puts a zip archive of the entire wiki on the share drive, in the S:\Digital Projects\Administrative\EMERGENCY folder
- places the HTML versions in the /home/ds/public_html/wiki directory, so a snapshot can be accessed from the libcontent server as static html: http://libcontent.lib.ua.edu/~ds/wiki/.

Instrument to foster translational research, industry and community partnerships
The National Science Foundation has awarded the Integrated Nanosystems Development Institute at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis a $495,744 grant for the purchase of a state-of-the-art Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope with Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy, through the Major Research Instrumentation Program. The enhanced imaging resolution and elemental analysis capabilities of the microscope will greatly advance research projects, including those in energy, sensors and materials development, and molecular and cellular roles in biological systems.
"The advanced capabilities of the FESEM will significantly enhance our existing nanotechnology initiatives, create new avenues for research and education at IUPUI, promote economic development opportunities in Indiana and stimulate interdisciplinary research collaborations across campus and with industry partners," said Mangilal Agarwal, interim director of the Integrated Nanosystems Development Institute. "We're extremely grateful to the National Science Foundation for their investment and excited to see the many ways it will benefit the community at large."
Rather than the visible light photons used by standard microscopes, the FESEM uses electron beams to provide the high-resolution magnification of materials at nanoscale -- up to 100,000 times smaller than the diameter of a human hair -- as well as the elemental analysis capabilities necessary for current nanoscale research.
Through the understanding and control of matter at these minute nanoscale dimensions, where new functionalities and properties of matter are observed, researchers may create functional materials, devices and systems, which have a broad range of applications. Examples of these applications include smaller, faster and more powerful computing systems, improved solar and fuel cells, lightweight and high-capacity batteries, targeted drug delivery systems, and consumer goods such as cosmetics, textiles and advance packaging materials.
"The FESEM will also provide students with valuable hands-on experience in operating state-of-the-art instrumentation, an essential skill for students interested in future graduate studies and careers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields," said Jian Xie, principal investigator and assistant professor of mechanical engineering and the new energy engineering degree program at IUPUI.
"Additionally, the instrument will be used to strengthen planned community outreach activities, including existing nanotechnology discovery summer camps for K-12 students and teachers," added Agarwal, who also serves as the program leader for these summer camps. "This instrument will allow the exploration of nanoscale materials and structures, as well as a better understanding of nanotechnology concepts for these students and teachers." The expertise and resources in nanoscale science and engineering at IUPUI, coupled with the desire of faculty and student researchers from diverse disciplines to develop nanotechnology-based systems addressing important societal and economic needs, have constituted the main driving forces for the establishment of the Integrated Nanosystems Development Institute.
"Funded by IUPUI's Signature Centers Initiative, INDI provides the organizational platform and resources necessary for a cutting-edge interdisciplinary research program in nanotechnology," said Kody Varahramyan, vice chancellor for research, who oversees the Signature Centers Initiative on the IUPUI campus.
INDI unites a highly motivated group of faculty with strong track records in nanomaterials, devices, systems design, development and applications from the School of Engineering and Technology, School of Science, School of Dentistry and School of Medicine.
About the Integrated Nanosystems Development Institute at IUPUI:
INDI is an interdisciplinary institute supported through the IUPUI Signature Centers Initiative in partnership with the School of Engineering and Technology, the School of Science and the School of Medicine. Over 30 faculty members from these schools are associated with INDI. These researchers have expertise in a wide range of fields, including chemistry, physics, biology, electrical and computer engineering, mechanical engineering, orthopedics, pathology and laboratory medicine.
About the Purdue School of Engineering and Technology at IUPUI:
The mission of the Purdue School of Engineering and Technology at IUPUI is to be one of the best urban university leaders in the disciplines of engineering and technology recognized locally, nationally and internationally. The school's goal is to provide students an education that will give them the leverage to be leaders in their communities, industry and society.
About the National Science Foundation:
The National Science Foundation is an independent federal agency that supports fundamental research and education across all fields of science and engineering. In fiscal year 2012, its budget is $7 billion. NSF funds reach all 50 states through grants to nearly 2,000 colleges, universities and other institutions. Each year, NSF receives over 50,000 competitive requests for funding and makes about 11,000 new funding awards. NSF also awards nearly $420 million in professional and service contracts yearly.

It hasn't been a good year for the Cleveland Police Department.
A county prosecutor is investigating a deadly chase in November that involved more than 60 squad cars and ended with 137 shots fired by 13 officers at two unarmed black people. The U.S. Department of Justice is reviewing years of excessive force claims.
And a growing list of complaints about the handling of missing person cases and rape investigations culminated with the escape of three women who had been held captive and raped for more than a decade. They were freed not because police cracked the case, but because one victim kicked out a door and yelled to neighbors for help.
The turmoil has hurt police morale, invigorated a mayoral campaign and led to frank discussions about the divide between the majority black residents of one of the nation's poorest cities and a police department critics say is too quick to use force in some cases and lackadaisical in other respects.
The cases have harmed the police department's standing in the eyes of residents, mayoral spokeswoman Maureen Harper said in a recent video presentation in Columbus on handling public information issues.
"Overall, quite frankly," she said, "our image was not good."
Discontent with the police department has led to protests against the administration - including one featuring several dozen people chanting inside city hall and another outside the courts building - and angry letters to the editor. One compared the wild chase to a Bonnie and Clyde getaway.
The chase, with more than a third of on-duty officers participating, began when one officer thought he heard a gunshot from a car speeding by police headquarters. It ended in a blocked-off parking lot, with driver Timothy Russell shot 23 times and passenger Malissa Williams shot 24 times.
Both victims were black, and no weapon was found. In a well-integrated police force, the makeup of the officers who fired raised the issue of race - 12 are white and one is Hispanic.
Any wrongdoing during the chase resulted from the failure of officers to comply with departmental rules, Mayor Frank Jackson and Police Chief Michael McGrath said, while the state attorney general criticized a "systemic failure" of communication and command.
Disciplinary hearings were held for more than 100 officers accused of joining the chase without permission, failure to manage officers or other departmental violations. A sergeant who was fired is appealing the dismissal.
The situation is creating a lasting effect on rank-and-file morale, said Lt. Brian Betley, head of a police supervisor union challenging disciplinary actions including a dismissal.
"I'd be a liar if I said that it didn't affect it in some way," he said. "I'm sure it's on everyone's minds."
Jeff Follmer, president of the police union, said the officers acted properly because the fleeing driver had tried to ram them.
But James Roberts, 61, who works as a debt collector in the city, doesn't buy it.
"It was totally uncalled for. It was excessive," Roberts said, noting that police also have a poor reputation for shoddy investigations of missing person cases over the years. He suggested police hold town hall meetings to hear residents' concerns and rebuild relationships.
Police have faced questions over their response to missing person cases before. In 2009, Anthony Sowell was charged with killing 11 black women on Cleveland's east side and hiding their bodies around his house and yard. He was found guilty and sentenced to death.
Kidnapper Ariel Castro was sentenced this year to more than 1,000 years in prison for kidnapping three women and holding them in his dilapidated Cleveland house for a decade; he committed suicide in his cell last month.
Both cases raised questions about how vigorously police investigated missing person cases, especially Sowell's inner-city black victims, some of whom were living on the street and had drug problems.
In recent months, the Justice Department has investigated excessive force claims in Albuquerque, N.M., Miami, and Los Angeles County. In Cleveland, the government said the investigation would expand beyond the fatal chase to include policies and training.
Chief McGrath told The Associated Press during the Columbus appearance that it's tough for him to say where the public's perception of his department stands now, but he said, "We're moving in the right direction."
Police have reached out in neighborhood meetings, including "coffee with a cop" sessions that include City Council members - often the first to hear citizen complaints against police.
Still, the troubles have been a distraction for Jackson, a black Democrat seeking a third term in November against businessman Ken Lanci, who has campaigned on a promise to dismiss the chief if elected.
Jackson, whose staff rejected recent interview requests, told television interviewers as the disciplinary hearings began in late spring that he supported McGrath.
"This white police chief is the only person that has given any semblance to justice and fairness in this whole process," Jackson said.
Donna Walker-Brown, 44, an activist involved with an inner-city anti-crime group, faulted Jackson's leadership.
"Even though the mayor is black," she said, "right now he is not when it comes to the black community."
Associated Press writer Kantele Franko in Columbus contributed to this report.

Whether or not you're a die-hard Harry Potter fan you can't have failed to notice the opening of London's big new attraction.
The Warner Bros Studio Tour, to give it its official name, offers the public the chance to see the sets of the Harry Potter films and uncover some of the secret tricks used in bringing the now-billionaire JK Rowling's books to life on the big screen.
So what can you expect on a visit to this much-heralded addition to the London tourist circuit? I took a look to find out.
From the outset, I should say that I'm not the biggest HP fan. I read the first four books more than 10 years ago and then stopped; I have only sat through a couple of the films.
Perhaps I'm not the ideal customer, but with many blokes of my age likely to be dragged along by their kids in the coming years it's probably not a bad idea for the designers of the tour to keep the likes of me entertained as well. I'll summarise my overall impressions here but won't spoil the surprises of the tour by revealing all of its details.
The single element that most impressed me was the meticulous attention to detail. In creating the potions classroom, Hagrid's hut, the boys' dorm and many other sets the designers have gone to extraordinary lengths to create a likeness of JK Rowling's Hogwarts.
Perhaps it was a result of the lavish budgets that were at their disposal after the phenomenal success of the first films, but for me, it was the single element that made the most lasting impression.
The biggest sets (the Great Hall, Diagon Alley and the model of Hogwarts) were the most striking, while I enjoyed scouring the details of the artists' drawings of the models and the displays showing how they were built.
One niggle I had as I passed through the tour was about how well it would appeal to the youngest visitors. There aren't that many interactive elements to the tour and apart from the photo opportunities there are relatively few things that kids can actually play with; not unlike a visit to Madame Tussauds I suppose.
The most exciting part for kids is likely to be the chance to ride on a broomstick and have their picture taken, although be warned: the photos will add a hefty amount to the cost of your visit. Similarly, the chance to have a taste of butter beer will appeal to many, but at £2.95 for a small plastic cup, it doesn't come cheap.
The official literature states that you should expect to spend around 3 hours to complete the tour. We finished in two and we were the slowest of the group who were touring that afternoon. Perhaps a longer visit to the gift shop and a snack at the cafe would have stretched the visit out. When the studios are crowded it will also take quite a bit longer to see everything.
The cost of the tour is priced in line with London's most expensive attractions (£28/£21/£83 for adults/children/family tickets). Tickets can be booked to include transfer from central London on the Harry Potter bus. I suspect devoted fans of the Harry Potter films will love the studio tour and will be thrilled at the chance to wander through the actual sets inhabited by Harry, Ron, Hermione and their friends (and mortal enemies).
Model makers, movie buffs and techy geeks will also appreciate the opportunity to see some of the very real magic that lies behind the special effects of the Harry Potter films. Given the global success of the Harry Potter story, that should be enough to guarantee that the crowds will keep visiting the studios for many years to come.
Get in the mood with the Harry Potter bus from central London

Arkansas Family History Research
This entry was originally written by Wendy Bebout Elliott, Ph.D., FUGA for Red Book: American State, County, and Town Sources.
History of Arkansas
Geographically located north of Louisiana and flanked on the east by the Mississippi River's west bank, the development of the state of Arkansas spanned three centuries. Long before frontiersmen from the newly formed United States crossed the Blue Ridge Mountains and attempted settlement along the Ohio and Mississippi rivers, Spanish and French explorers came upon the native peoples living in what is now Arkansas. In 1541 Hernando de Soto's Spanish expedition crossed the Mississippi River to Arkansas, spending several months in the area.
During the seventeenth century, French explorers made their way through today's Arkansas. A small French expedition of two canoes from Canada voyaged down the Mississippi River to Arkansas in 1673, led by Jacques Marquette, a Catholic priest, and Louis Joliet, a fur trader. LaSalle's expedition followed nearly ten years later, claiming the land for France. In 1686, Henri de Tonti founded Arkansas Post, the first settlement in the lower Mississippi River Valley. It served as a trading post, a way station for Mississippi River travel, and the home of a Jesuit mission for a few years. The French later established several settlements south of the Arkansas Post in 1699, including Natchez and Orleans.
Prior to France's decisive defeat by Britain in the Seven Years War (or French and Indian War), in 1762 France ceded to Spain both New Orleans and land west of the Mississippi River, which eventually became the Louisiana Purchase. The Spanish began governing the area in 1766, but their authority was not firmly established for several years. Arkansas Post remained the center of administration for the District of Arkansas, a huge, undefined region, including all of present-day Arkansas and Oklahoma. The area was supervised by a lieutenant governor at St. Louis. Settlers from the British colonies, preoccupied with severing their ties from the Crown, had not yet broken through the Blue Ridge Mountains to the east. Once independence was won, however, the land formerly held by Native Americans became 'fair game' for grants to those who had served their new country well in battle. Because of this, settlers'the majority from Kentucky and Tennessee'began to increase in number, making their homes along the rivers of eastern and southern Arkansas. By 1792, early settlements had cropped up at Big Prairie, near the mouth of the St. Francis River, and present-day Helena, though inhabitants were few.
Following the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, Arkansas settlements officially came under United States jurisdiction as part of Louisiana Territory. In June 1812, Arkansas became part of Missouri Territory as a result of Louisiana's admittance to the union.
The northern quarter of Arkansas was established as part of the New Madrid District in Louisiana Territory. Directly to the south and running to the Arkansas River, an area shaped like a mirror image of Virginia formed the District of Arkansas. Both districts became counties when Missouri Territory was created. The remaining half of Arkansas, located on the southern side of the Arkansas River, was claimed by Native Americans.
The Osage and Quapaw had resided in the area from a much earlier time, while the Cherokee and Choctaw received land grants from the federal government for land in Arkansas, having been forced out of their homelands in the east. Delaware, Shawnee, Caddo, and other native tribes made Arkansas their home. The Quapaw claimed the land south of the Arkansas River for approximately 100 miles and indefinitely to the west. The Osage had claimed a large region north of the Arkansas River, and in 1808 ceded land that became part of the District of Arkansas, then still part of Louisiana Territory. Treaties with the Osage chiefs were made again in 1816, 1818, and 1825, resulting in the loss of their Arkansas land and their removal to today's Oklahoma.
Two million acres, situated between the Arkansas and St. Francis rivers, were offered as bounty land for military service in the War of 1812. Each veteran was given a warrant for 160 acres, allocated by a lottery process.
An 1818 conference between the Osage and Cherokee met with Major William Lovely, Cherokee agent in Missouri Territory, resulting in the Osage ceding lands they had held in the northeastern section of present-day Oklahoma and a northwestern portion of today's Arkansas, at the time still part of Missouri Territory.
Arkansas Territory was organized from Missouri Territory in 1819 with a little over 14,000 inhabitants, exclusive of native peoples. All of present-day Oklahoma except the panhandle was included. Arkansas Post was designated as the capital. Lands formerly belonging to the Cherokee nation were organized as Crawford County. Little Rock became the capital in 1821. As the territory continued to develop between 1819 and 1836, more cession agreements between native tribes in Arkansas and the United States government opened the land to further settlement and eventual statehood.
Arkansas became the twenty-fifth state in 1836. Following the Panic of 1837, many people moved into Arkansas from both southern and eastern states. Men from Arkansas served in the U.S. Army during the Mexican War, some receiving bounty lands prior to 1855. The Gold Rush in California attracted people from Arkansas; most began the trek from Fort Smith.
During the Civil War, Arkansas men served in both the Union and Confederate armies, although the greater majority served for the Confederate cause. In May 1861, after Arkansas seceded from the United States, the Provisional Congress of the Confederate States of America divided Arkansas into eastern and western districts, with governmental seats at Little Rock and Van Buren, respectively. Federal forces occupied Van Buren in late 1862 and took control of Little Rock on 10 September 1863, forcing the state government to relocate to Washington in Hempstead County during the occupation. By late 1863, Confederates were forced into southwestern Arkansas, leaving most of Arkansas under Union control with subsequent raiding and plundering by Union troops.
One of the many campaigns and skirmishes fought on Arkansas soil was at Pea Ridge in Benton County in 1862. Among later ones were those at Fort Smith, Little Rock, Prairie Grove, and Pine Bluff.
During the strife, some families moved and others sent their sons to Texas to avoid the difficulties. Some families from northwestern Arkansas migrated north into Missouri and Illinois to escape the conflict. Others moved west to Kansas and as far north as Minnesota. After the close of the war, Arkansas tried to attract European immigrants. Some settled on the rich land located between the Arkansas and White rivers. The development of railroads in the last quarter of the nineteenth century encouraged more foreign-born immigration. Immigration continued into the twentieth century, but the population remained predominantly rural, with an economy reliant on cotton, until after World War II. African Americans, many with ancestors who have been part of Arkansas history from the territorial period, make up about one-fifth of the population.

MILLEGEVILLE, Ga. –Senior Patrick Garrett (Kennesaw, Ga.) of the No.14 Georgia College golf team was named Bobcat Athlete of the Week for the week ending Nov. 4.
Garrett finished tied for the individual lead in a tough field at the Rollins College McDonough Cup this week. GC finished ninth out of the 18 schools that participated.
Battling the elements, he shot a final round of even par 72 on Tuesday after posting scores of 74 and 72 on Monday. He finished 2 over par, which was good enough for a four-way tie at the top of the field. Lynn University's Daniel Young separated from the pack during the playoff to win the individual title.
Garrett has three top-20 finishes in four tournaments thus far. He hopes to lead the Bobcats when they return to action in February for the Matlock Invitational in Lakeland, Fla.

MotorcycleMen necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 21 diseños de 10 diseñadores freelance.
We're looking for a great redesign for our very successful Bohn Armor Pants http://www.Bohn-Armor-Pants.com
Our customers find us from print and online ads, and generally do not initially know what our product is or how it works.
This product is not an obvious choice for riders thinking about protection, but when the details are explained it makes sense, people buy and are very very happy!
The existing approach has been successful for a number of years, but we are keen to try a new sharp modern look which clearly explains the principles, features and benefits of our product.
We want to improve usability by arranging the information in a clear, logical and unfussy form, and make it easy to order.
The object is to sell, and a designer with direct response marketing will find this project a fun challenge!
Our buyers are generally between 45 and 70 year old motorcyclists, with the majority men, but many women riders too.
They are very often professional and well educated, and not particularly price conscious.
Our most popular buyers ride traditional motorcycles, like BMW and Triumph, but we sell to Harley & cruiser style riders too, and this is a huge potential growth area.
They have often ridden for decades, but feel a need for protection as they get older. Many buyers are also novice, middle aged riders.
As above, we need a sharp new design, which conveys the information to visitors in a way that makes them understand an want to buy!
This product is quite unique, and non-intuitive - so we have to explain the reasons why it is tremendously better than our competition - which is kevlar reinforced jeans.
One feature we would like to implement, or try, is to give visitors the chance to Quick Order (on the first screen view) giving a summary and order (like Amazon)) without scrolling through a long page.
There's quite a lot of detail to absorb, so a simple graphic layout is preferrable to a big fussy one.
We are quite open to changing the sales letter approach to a more impersonal description so we welcome all approaches!.
We will also have a male video demo available shortly, but I'm not sure whether this should feature at the top or lower down the page.
Images: you can use any images from http://www.Bohn-armor-Pants or http://www.ActionStation.com for your visuals.
Any other questions, please ask!

Elections to be held on schedule, promises Danish
Elections to be held on schedule, promises Danish
KABUL (Pajhwok): Second Vice President Sarwar Danish on Saturday underlined the imperative of national unity, promising that the Wolesi Jirga election would be held on schedule.
Danish issued the call for unity while addressing the lower house of parliament on the occasion of introducing 12 ministers-designates to lawmakers for the vote of confidence.
Concern at divisions
"The enemies of the country have been trying to widen the gap between the government and the people and create divisions among different ethnic groups," the VP alleged.
Danish accused Afghanistan's foes of seeking to pit government organs against one another. He said the government and parliament should work together to prevent divisions in the nation.
Danish said the conduction Wolesi Jirga election is set for the next year and presidential election for the year after. He stressed over the orgnisation of timely election which he termed top priorities of the government. Danish claimed many steps had been taken during the past one year to ensure the conduct of upcoming polls.
He added: "Criticism and suggestions from eminent personalities, political parties, civil society and public representatives have been noted by the government. Election belongs to the people, not to the government or parliament.
"As it has already announced, the government is committed to conducting elections on time with the support of parliament, political parties and civil society. We hope the election will be free and fair..."
The Independent Election Commission (IEC) has announced July 18, 2018 as the date for the Wolesi Jirga and district council election.
Government performance
The VP admitted the government went through a difficult situation last year but was able to deal with challenges. Despite difficulties, tremendous gains had been achieved, he said.
He added Afghanistan had a positive imaged at the international level and many pledges of support held out to the country by the global community were being implemented.
Danish hailed the new US strategy as a giant stride, as far as support from the international community for Afghanistan was concerned. The new policy represented hope for the people of Afghanistan.
The vice-president claimed major steps had been taken to eradicate the scourge of corruption and some institution like the judiciary, civil services and others were being reformed.

Young athletes dream in their innocence of someday playing in the NBA, NFL, NHL or MLB. Part of that dream might also include appearing on the cover of Sports Illustrated, the most read sports magazine in the world.
Matt Gagne didn't care so much about being on the cover of SI. He wanted to write the cover story.
The 2000 Spaulding High School graduate is living his dream. He has been working for Sports Illustrated as a fact-checker since 2010, and he occasionally gets to write a story for the magazine. Last month he wrote a piece called "Does Michael Vick deserve this?" on the much-maligned Philadelphia Eagles quarterback.
"I always wanted to work there and never thought it would happen," Gagne said.
Gagne, 30, knew he wanted to write about sports when he was in his teens. He recalled watching a local reporter covering his Babe Ruth all-star baseball team play in the state championship in Keene. Gagne remembers sitting on the bench and watching the reporter do his job.
"That's the greatest job in the world," he said. "I want to do that."
The long journey to SI began.
Gagne said he had good English teachers in middle school and at Spaulding, which gave him his early base. He attended Bates College in Maine, writing for the school newspaper, and then later as an intern at Foster's Daily Democrat. He also did freelance work for the Lewiston Sun Journal, Portland Press Herald, Nashua Telegraph and Concord Monitor among others.
"I was looking for a paycheck," he said. "My friends would go out partying Friday night in Lewiston and I'd be out covering a high school football game somewhere."
After Bates, Gagne continued to write in Northern New England. He lived out of his car and slept on friends' apartment floors or couches.
"My only goal was to pay for my health insurance," he said (Gagne's a diabetic), "and to be able to put gas in the car."
Gagne got a job with the Boston Herald in 2005. His job title was EA (editorial assistant), but his main task was putting greyhound racing results in the paper. He still lived out of his car and continued to sleep on friends' couches or floors.
Every now and again the Herald gave him a break and he'd get to cover something like a New England Revolution practice or Anna Kournikova playing tennis at Harvard University.
At that point in his life, Gagne's relationship with his then girl friend and now wife, Rebekah, came to a head. Basically it was move in together or break up.
Gagne quit his job at the Herald and with no job prospects moved in with Rebekah, a kindergarten teacher in New York City.
Gagne didn't work for six months. Finally in the fall of 2006 he called the Boston Herald and asked if he could do a sidebar on the New England Patriots at New York Jets game. The paper said no since it had all its writers already there to do a Red Sox-Yankees game the night before. Gagne didn't let up. He pressed the Herald and they relented. They let him do a small sidebar on the football game.
Gagne was riding down the elevator after the game with a guy from the Daily News, who asked him how he worked for the Herald but lived in Manhattan.
"How does that make sense?" Gagne recalled the guy asking. "I explained my situation. He told me to call this guy at the News and two weeks later I had a job."
It turns out the guy he met on the elevator covered the high school beat in NYC and was leaving that to cover the New York Mets. Gagne got his job.
"That took me from living on 86th Street and being afraid of 85th Street to seeing a New York City that a lot of people don't," he said. "I was in all five boroughs. I covered high school sports in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Staten Island, Queens. I was in some neighborhoods I wouldn't have otherwise gone to; probably wouldn't have felt safe in if I weren't covering sports. My fear of New York City diminished quickly. It had to."
It consumed Gagne's life. The hours were long. At one stretch he worked 30 straight days without a day off. But he was in the door.
"They started throwing me bones," he said. "There were so many teams. They needed bodies. I never said no to an assignment, for an opportunity to write. Not just there, but anywhere."
Gagne never said no to any coverage. Eventually he was doing sidebar coverage for the Yankees and Mets and any other pro team in the city.
"That was a lot of experience, a lot of teams," he said.
There were some memorable moments with the Daily News. Gagne was court side for the UConn-Syracuse men's basketball game that went six overtimes in the Big East tournament. He was there in the Garden the night Kobe Bryant dropped a venue-record 61 points on the Knicks. He interviewed Michael Jordan and Pele. He was inside the ropes at the 2009 U.S. Open at Bethpage and standing near the green when Tiger Woods chipped in from the rough. He covered the Yankees when they won the 2009 Word Series against the Phillies. He got to go on the field and then, not so gloriously, wrote his piece on deadline on the floor near the pressroom bathroom — they was no room in the pressroom.
During this time, Gagne met Richard Demak, the SI chief of reporters and his current boss. He interviewed for a job at SI, which he didn't get, but stayed in touch with Demak and kept sending him clippings.
In the summer of 2010, another position opened at SI. He interviewed, saying he would leave the Daily News and work without insurance even if it was a temporary gig.
He got the job and got his health insurance.
"The diabetic could get his insulin," Gagne said.
"My philosophy hasn't changed," he added. "I never said no and I won't."
He also makes sure that when he travels he takes two weeks worth of insulin in case he's on the road and the magazine needs him to do something else.
"I don't want to be in a position to say I can't do it," he added.
Gagne said he got his love of sports from his dad, Larry, who took him and his brother, Tyler, to men's softball games at Riverside Park in Rochester, and also Friday night football and baseball games at Spaulding.
"My mom (Doris) made sure my homework always got done," he added.
Gagne continues to make connections back to Rochester and to N.H. He covered Freddy Meyer when he was in the NHL with the New York Islanders. Meyer, a New Hampshire guy who grew up in Rochester and Sanbornville, was Gagne's Rochester Youth Football League teammate when they won the city championship in the early 1990s.
"He played right guard because he was too heavy to be a running back," Gagne recalled. "We basically ran every play behind him. You could tell when we were 11 and 12 years old he was just a different kind of athlete. He ran every sprint as if he was being chased by a rabid rottweiler."
There was the time he was interviewing Brian Sabean, the San Francisco Giants general manager and Concord native. Gagne mentioned he was from Rochester and Sabean asked if he knew Butch Emerson (a former Spaulding three-sport star from the early 1970s who now teaches and coaches basketball at Rochester Middle School).
Gagne also interviewed another New Hampshire native, Jed Hoyer, then the GM for the San Diego Padres. Once Hoyer knew Gagne was from Rochester, he asked if he knew Jamie Keefe, one of Rochester's great baseball players (drafted by the Pirates in 1992).
"We're on the other side of the country, but we have this immediate connection to Rochester and people we both know," Gagne said.
This past August, Gagne was on the road for three weeks with SI senior writer Peter King covering a dozen NFL preseason camps or games from Miami to Buffalo, ending up in Green Bay. In some cases, Gagne was doing 20-hour days between coverage and driving.
Gagne had some time off in September and made it back to Rochester for a visit. Since then he's been up to his eyeballs in work, mostly with NFL coverage. He did the Vick piece last month, and before that did a story on the NFL expanding its schedule to include Thursday games, as well as a story on Washington Redskins running back Alfred Morris. He is still doing his fact-checking and reporting for other stories. He was recently told by his editor that he will be covering the Super Bowl in New Orleans.
"It's fun," Gagne said. "There's something new every day. But I love the writing aspect more than I love the sports. You have to."

Why AMI Montessori
Every teaching method sparks moments of learning. Then why is Montessori so different? The difference is the method itself. The mind of a child is like a sponge—absorbing everything, always at the ready to learn something new. The primary goal of Montessori education? To help children reach their full potential.
Imagine a school…
where education is viewed not just as a means to an end, but as an aid to life; where the method for learning comes not from a curriculum, but from the natural development of your child; a place where creativity, innovation, and individuality are valued as much as concentration, motivation, and persistence; where your child is not just a student, but also a teacher.
As a student in an AMI-recognized school, your child will be laying the foundation for every future educational experience, and something even more important: the foundation for a happy and meaningful life. Regardless of age, ability, or economics, an AMI-Montessori education is right for your child.

the research
Montessori education, rooted in human development, driven by observation, inspired by science, and based on timeless and universal human tendencies, has become increasingly popular and better understood in the United States because it is supported by research in psychology, biology, neurology, and additional disciplines. With this new attention, and the current issues facing public education, more and more researchers have begun to study the outcomes and impact of a Montessori education.
Currently, research regarding the success of Montessori education has concentrated in six areas:

Additional Perspectives
Key researchers and speakers from outside the Montessori community whose work supports Montessori's original methods participate annually in AMI/USA conferences. This list includes such prominent names as:
graduates of distinction
An AMI Montessori education assists children to develop to their full human potential by helping them "learn how to think." What do thinking children do when they grow up? They become successful, accomplished adults contributing to a better world.
Some of the most famous entrepreneurs and innovators of today have actively credited their success to the education they received in a Montessori classroom.

I would like to know if the following inequality is satisfied by all probability distributions (or at least some class of probability distributions) for all integer $n \geq 2$.
$\int_0^{\infty} F(z)^{n-1}(1-\frac{F(z)}{n})\left[zF(z)^{n-2} - \int_0^z F(t)^{n-2}dt\right]f(z)dz$ $\leq \int_0^{\infty} F(z)^{n-1}\left[zF(z)^{n-1} - \int_0^z F(t)^{n-1}dt\right]f(z)dz $
Some comments follow:
1) F(z) is the cumulative distribution function of any probability distribution over positive real numbers. The outer integral runs over the entire support of the distribution, thus, in general, from zero to infinity. f(z) is the probability density function.
2) I will be happy even if this is proved for bounded support distributions, in which case, the outer integral runs from 0 to some upper limit H.
3) Note that both the LHS and the RHS are always non-negative. This is because of the special form of what is inside the square brackets. For both the LHS and the RHS, the second term in the square bracket (i.e. the negative integral from 0 to z), when replaced by its value at the upper limit throughout the region of integration from 0 to z, gives precisely the first term in the square bracket. Thus the term in the square bracket is always non-negative, for both the LHS and the RHS.
4) Also note the obvious similarity in the structure between the LHS and the RHS. The only differences are the difference in exponent for what is inside the square brackets, and the LHS having an extra factor of $1 - \frac{F(z)}{n}$.
5) Note that for $n=2$, this inequality is definitely true since the LHS evaluates to zero owing to the term in the square bracket in the LHS becoming zero, and the RHS is always non-negative, as mentioned in point 3 above.
6) It is easy to work out that for all $n \geq 2$, this inequality is true for uniform [0,1] distributions, i.e., the distribution with support [0,1] and $F(z) = z$.
7) I tried evaluating this integral for small values of $n$ (till 50) using Maple for exponential distribution, and the positive half of the normal distribution and found it to be true. I am guessing that this inequality is true for at least some large class of probability distributions if not all distributions.
8) For instance, would a monotone hazard rate condition help? Monotone hazard rate means that $\frac{f(z)}{1-F(z)}$ is non-decreasing.

NEW YORK, June 7 (UPI) -- British movie star Daniel Radcliffe says he was happy to work with Northern Irish actor Ciaran Hinds again in "The Woman in Black" after the pair shared the screen in "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II."
In James Watkins' gripping film adaptation of Susan Hill's 1983 supernatural suspense novel, "The Woman in Black," Radcliffe portrays Arthur Kipps, a young Victorian-era London lawyer sent to the English countryside to settle the affairs of a deceased client. He travels to her derelict home on the outskirts of a small village and finds the house is not as empty as he expected. As he speaks to some of the terrified townspeople, he learns their children die shortly after a woman clad in black is spotted by someone at the house at the focus of Kipps' investigation.
Hinds, an accomplished stage actor who has also appeared in the movies "Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance," "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy," "The Debt," "Eclipse," "There Will Be Blood," "Veronica Guerin" and "Road to Perdition," plays Sam Daily, one of the less superstitious neighbors in "The Woman in Black," a low-tech, old-fashioned ghost story. Daily tries to help Kipps unravel the mystery, even though he and his wife, played by Janet McTeer, have lost a son of their own under questionable circumstances. The tragedy has left Daily heart-broken and his spouse slightly insane.
Radcliffe told United Press International in New York recently he was thrilled to act again opposite Hinds after having worked with him briefly on "Harry Potter."
"It was an amazing cast, particularly Ciaran," Radcliffe said of "The Woman in Black." "Janet is amazing, but I only got to work with her for four days total, but she's great. Ciaran. I've seen loads of amazing actors, but nobody makes it look quite as easy as Ciaran Hinds. Ciaran just has an ease about him and a natural instinct. He's just amazing. Most actors, you can sort of see a shift or something when they hear the word 'action' and Ciaran sort of slides into it and you never see a shift. Suddenly, he's just acting. It's just wonderful."
Even though the stars had previously met when Radcliffe was playing the titular wizard and Hinds portrayed Aberforth Dumbledore in the last "Harry Potter" film, the younger actor said they didn't really get to know each other well until they reunited for "The Woman in Black."
"We worked together on that brief scene [in 'Potter'] and got on really well," Radcliffe recalled. "I really liked him, but it was three days we were filming on that. I've filmed with so many actors for that brief scene where they come in, you get to meet him, get to work with him and then they go and you see them at the premiere. And if you got on, then you chat with them. But, with Ciaran, it was actually wonderful because we did that brief scene, then went off and made 'Woman in Black,' and then had to re-shoot the scene between me and Ciaran for the 'Potter' movie. It was one of the scenes we had to re-shoot. So, that was actually helped a huge amount by the fact that by the time we got back to re-shooting it, we had worked together another 6 1/2 weeks. It was great."
Radcliffe also joked about the one downfall of working with actors of Hinds' and McTeer's stature on "The Woman in Black."
"The combined tallest height in film history of a couple," Radcliffe groaned. "That was pretty intimidating for little ol' me, which is why every time I watch the scene -- particularly if I'm watching it with someone I know -- where I'm talking to Janet outside the mausoleum, I say, 'I step onto the box; step off of the box.' Because you can really see the moment where I'm like, 'Right, I'm tall now.'"
"The Woman in Black" is on DVD now.

OAKLAND — The parents of a UC Berkeley student who was killed, along with her 6-year-old son, in a drunken-driving crash last year have filed a salacious lawsuit against the university and the driver who killed their daughter and grandson.
The 30-page lawsuit was filed five days before Jose Lumbreras, 25, pleaded no contest to charges of gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated. The plea entry halted a criminal trial that was expected to begin this week and resulted in Lumbreras facing 12 years in prison when he is sentenced next month.
But for the parents of Milanca Lopez, 22, Lumbreras' girlfriend, who was killed in the crash, a criminal punishment isn't enough.
The parents are seeking an unspecified amount of money from Lumbreras, UC Berkeley and university employees who had contact with the couple while they lived in campus housing.
In doing so, the parents, Medardo and Margarita Lopez, have accused Lumbreras of physically and mentally abusing their daughter in the months before the crash and claim the university should have known about the abuse and prevented further damage.
"They feel there is a story here that hasn't been told," said Richard Richardson, who along with Joel Siegal, filed the lawsuit. "This is a tragedy, it's unbearable."
The accusations made in the suit, however, differ drastically from characterizations of the relationship made by some people before Lopez was killed. At that time, sources said, people described Lopez and Lumbreras as being madly in love.
But in the lawsuit, Lopez's parents claim that Lumbreras used his position as a graduate student and teacher to lure their daughter into a relationship that he eventually began to dominate through mental and physical abuse.
Among the numerous descriptions of abuse claimed in the lawsuit is a January 2012 incident during which Lumbreras is accused of forcing Lopez to have sex with him in front of her 6-year-old child.
The university should be held responsible for Lumbreras' actions, the suit claims, because it employed Lumbreras as a graduate student teacher and because it should have had knowledge of the ongoing abuse.
Dan Mogulof, spokesman for the university, said the school just received the lawsuit and does not have enough information to comment on the claims and accusations.
"We deeply regret the loss of innocent life in this horrible accident and know how difficult this must be for Ms. Lopez's family," Mogulof said.
Richardson and Siegal said some of the abuse allegations came from a police report that was written after the crash. That report was based, in part, on statements from other students who knew the couple, the San Francisco lawyers said.
Lopez was killed after Lumbreras drove a car into a tree at 65 mph near the corner of California Street and Allston Way in Berkeley on May 18, 2012.
Lumbreras had a blood-alcohol level of .16 percent, twice the legal limit, two hours after the crash. Lopez had a .11 blood alcohol level. Neither was wearing a seat belt; Lopez's son, Xavier, was wearing a seat belt but was not in a booster seat.
The crash occurred after the couple had spent the night drinking in celebration of their graduations. Lopez had just received her bachelor's degree and was headed to graduate school at UCLA. Lumbreras had just received his master's degree and planned to work on a doctoral degree.
Paul Wolf, Lumbreras' criminal defense attorney, declined to comment.

Julius Caesar: Man, Soldier, and Tyrant
Rutgers University Press, 1965 - History - 336 pages
Since the Renaissance, Julius Caesar has been idolized as a superman. Classical sources, however, present a far less exalted being. As General Fuller writes, Caesar was "an unscrupulous demagogue whose one aim was power, and a general who could not only win brilliant victories but also commit dismal blunders.... It is reasonable to suspect that, at times, Caesar was not responsible for his actions, and toward the end of his life, not altogether sane." There is not doubt that Caesar was an extraordinary man." But Fuller points out that he was extraordinary for his reckless ambition, matchless daring, and ruthless tyranny, rather than for his skills as a military comander. Caesar continually had to extricate himself from results of mistakes of judgement. His unnecessary Alexandrian War, his close call at Thapsus, and his seemingly unpremeditated Gallic conquest are just a few of Fuller's many examples.And in telling Caesar's history, Fuller illuminates a century of Roman history as well. Aided by maps of Caesar's principal battles and diagrams of many of his weapons, Fuller brings to life Caesar's wars, his armies, his equipment, and his methods. Brilliant in design and impressive in scope, Julius Caesar clarifies how the military, political, and economic aspects of the Roman Republic worked together to produce a man whose name has come down to us as a synonym for absolute authority.
