JEM-2100: Applications in Nanotechnology | Applications | JEOL Ltd.
This article sums up a two-year experience of employing a JEOL JEM-2100 (LaB6) high resolution electron microscope for structural characterization of nano-materials. The instrument was integrated with a scanning device comprising ADF and BF detectors and with an EDS system for elemental analysis. Despite the fact that the microscope was installed in a small room without a special basement, with a standard air-conditioner, and no special precautions were taken to avoid variations in air temperature or to attenuate sound-and-vibration disturbances, the microscope has provided excellent around the clock performance. In the HRTEM mode it was possible to achieve lattice resolution of 1.17 Å; the resolution capability of the instrument afforded by STEM was about 10nm. The capabilities of the system are demonstrated in a few examples of nano-materials research applications.


Following this week's announcement that the Honorable Raymond P. Martinez has been appointed by President Donald J. Trump to serve as Administrator of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), leaders of the Transportation and Infrastructure practice of Davidoff Hutcher & Citron, LLP (DHC) are joining with other industry leaders to commend the appointment.
In his new role Mr. Martinez will lead a 1,000-person federal agency responsible for preventing commercial motor vehicle-related fatalities, injuries and ensuring safety in motor carrier operations.
Mr. Martinez previously served as an attorney with DHC, a law and government affairs firm with offices in Washington, D.C., New York City, Albany and Long Island, NY with a very significant practice serving the transportation and transit industries. Its clients include: airlines, airport authorities, aviation construction, tunnel workers, railroads, monorails, trucking, vehicle fleet maintenance and school bus, ambulance, taxi and towing fleets.
The FMCSA works to reduce crashes involving large trucks and buses, by creating and enforcing regulations that balance motor carrier safety with efficiency, enforces regulations on higher risk carriers and educates carriers, commercial drivers, and the public on road safety matters.
Brian Simon, past head of Government & Community Relations for the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey and now Director of DHC's public affairs group added, "As someone who has worked closely to implement transportation and modern transit infrastructure policy in the Northeast, it is clear to me that the president paid close attention to who he would appoint for this vital federal agency." The Port Authority of NY & NJ builds, operates, and maintains critical transportation and trade assets including the cross-Hudson River bridges and tunnels, four major airports, rail systems and seaport facilities, along with the 16-acre World Trade Center site.

Fannie Flagg named 2012 Harper Lee Award recipient
Fannie Flagg, a Birmingham native, has been named the 2012 recipient of the Harper Lee Award for Alabama's Distinguished Writer of the Year. Flagg will receive the award at the Alabama Writers Symposium in Monroeville on April 27, 2012, at the annual luncheon. The conference will meet April 26-28.
"I am absolutely thrilled and honored to receive this award—particularly this award named in honor of my idol Harper Lee," said Flagg.
"This year we have the advantage of announcing the 2012 Harper Lee Award recipient very early," said Jeanie Thompson, executive director of the Alabama Writers' Forum. "Fannie's fans will be happy to know they can register for the Symposium right away by contacting Alabama Southern Community College at mbmurphy@ascc.edu."
The Alabama Writers' Forum, a partnership program of the Alabama State Council on the Arts, coordinates the selection of the Harper Lee Award recipient annually from nominations from the field. The honor is presented annually by Alabama Southern Community College at the Symposium. It is made possible through a generous grant from George F. Landegger, chairman, Parsons and Whittemore.
"We're excited to have Fannie Flagg return to the annual Alabama Writers Symposium," said Dr. Melinda Byrd-Murphy, director of the Alabama Center for Literary Arts. "She was a featured author in 2000 and was a crowd favorite. We're glad she is being recognized for her contribution to the literary arts at this year's event."
A New York Times bestseller, Flagg is the author of the novels I Still Dream About You (Random House, 2010); Can't Wait to Get to Heaven (Ballentine Books, 2007); A Redbird Christmas (Random House, 2005); Standing in the Rainbow (Ballentine Books, 2002); Welcome to the World, Baby Girl! (Ballentine Books, 1998); Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle-Stop Cafe (Random House, 1987); and Coming Attractions: A Wonderful Novel (1981; reprinted as Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man, Ballentine Books, 1992). Her writing awards include the Alabama State Council on the Arts Distinguished Artist Award (2001), First Place in Fiction Award from the Santa Barbara Writers Conference (1978), and others.
Also known for her work as an actress, producer, and writer for stage, film, and television, Flagg received an Academy Award® nomination and the University of Southern California Scripter Award from Friends of USC Libraries for her screenplay, Fried Green Tomatoes, an adaptation of her novel.
In her letter of nomination, Anita Miller Garner, author and University of North Alabama associate professor of English, wrote, "Much like Capote's A Christmas Memory and Steinbeck's Travels with Charley, Fannie Flagg's novels tap into the human capacity for making art from reminiscences about an actual or imagined time, a centuries-old successful formula. Her novels, of course, are not factual reminiscences but are artful fiction from which the reader intuits truths. And, much as in a good memoir, the 'spoonfuls of sugar' of hindsight and memory help us swallow with less distaste the realizations of life Flagg offers the reader."
When nominating Flagg, Tina F. Turley, executive producer of Theatre Tuscaloosa, wrote, "While most people know that Ms. Flagg is a New York Times bestselling author, her credentials as a scriptwriter for television and an award-winning screenwriter demonstrate that she has worked successfully in two genres. To have visualized her material first in fiction and then adapted it to a screenplay demonstrates the versatility of her talent as a writer. Fannie Flagg is truly one of Alabama's finest treasures."
Flagg presently divides her time between California and Alabama.
The Harper Lee Award is made to a living, nationally recognized Alabama writer who has made a significant, lifelong contribution to Alabama letters. It includes a cash prize and a bronze sculpture by Frank Fleming of the iconic Monroe County Courthouse clock tower. The courthouse is a setting for Lee's novel To Kill a Mockingbird. Flagg will read selections from her work in the courthouse on Saturday, April 28.
This year is the fifteenth annual Harper Lee Award. Previous recipients include Winston Groom (2011), Carolyn Haines (2010), Rick Bragg (2009), Rebecca Gilman (2008), William Cobb (2007), Wayne Greenhaw (2006), Andrew Hudgins (2005), Sonia Sanchez (2004), Rodney Jones (2003), Mary Ward Brown (2002), Sena Jeter Naslund (2001), Helen Norris (2000), Madison Jones (1999), and Albert Murray (1998).

This chart locates the star Kappa Andromedae, which is visible to the unaided eye from suburban skies.
This is a false color, near-infrared (3.8 micron) image of the Kappa And system. The light from the host star (center) has been removed through image processing. The super-Jupiter, Kappa And b (upper left), has a projected separation of 55 Astronomical Units, about 1.8 times that of Neptune's orbital separation. The speckled pattern surrounding the software-generated mask at the center represents residual noise from the starlight subtraction. The Subaru Telescope in Hawaii captured the image in July 2012.
Left (a): A false-color, near-infrared (1.2 - 2.4 microns) image of the Kappa And system. Image processing removed the light from the host star, which lies behind the mask (a software-generated, dark disk) at the center of the square. The colored speckles represent starlight left over after removal of light from the host star. Separated by about 55 Astronomical Units from its host star, the super-Jupiter, Kappa And b (upper left), resides at a distance about 1.8 times greater than Neptune's orbital separation from the Sun. Right (b): A "signal-to-noise ratio map" generated from the image to the left. The colored speckles represent residual light that remains after subtraction of light from the host star. The white feature toward the upper left, representing a high signal-to-noise value, indicates detection of the super-Jupiter with high confidence.

The work ahead in preventing premature death
Chuck Norris examines why life expectancy is suddenly reversing
By Chuck Norris
Published June 28, 2019 at 10:54am
In the modern world, there have been steady increases in life expectancy. It has more than doubled in the last two centuries – that is, until now. As widely reported, for the third year in a row, the U.S. death rate rose last year.
Until recently, the big debate for demographers had to do with what the ceiling for human longevity might be. They, along with the health community, are now forced to answer a very different question: Why has life expectancy been so suddenly thrown into reverse?
The lingering issue of obesity and the increasing prevalence of suicide, depression and drug abuse clearly play a role when considering preventable causes of death, as do diseases of the heart, cancers, stroke, chronic lower respiratory diseases and unintentional injuries. According to the World Health Organization, in 2014, these causes accounted for 63 percent of deaths. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in the United States, cigarette smoking remains the leading cause of preventable disease and death, accounting for more than 480,000 deaths every year – about 1 in 5 deaths in this country.
These trends are happening at the same time that the potential for a long and relatively healthy life have never been greater. Since the early 1970s, we have seen a rapid increase in the number of very old people in this country. We are talking about people living to 100, 110 or even longer.
They are the "supercentenarians," and I have written about them in the past. As noted in a recent edition of The Conversation, this select group is more than simply durable. Perhaps because of their inherent resilience and particular physiology, they are best able to benefit from the improvements in living conditions and technology. What they demonstrate is that it may be possible to lengthen lifespans further if improvements in health at the highest ages can be realized. With the proper commitment and with changes, there is no reason the human longevity revolution cannot continue. Upward lifespan trends are not a given; we have work to do to achieve them.
According to a new study led by the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and published in the journal Circulation, a worldwide effort to lower people's blood pressure, cut their sodium intake and eliminate trans fat from their diet could dramatically reduce the incidence of premature death from cardiovascular disease in a little over a quarter-century. They estimated that scaling up treatment of high blood pressure to 70 percent of the world's population could extend the lives of 39.4 million people. Cutting sodium intake by 30 percent could stave off another 40 million deaths and could also help decrease high blood pressure, a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Eliminating trans fat from food products could prevent 14.8 million early deaths.
The researchers also acknowledged that scaling up such interventions would be a "huge challenge," requiring countries to commit additional resources to boost health care capacity and quality.
At the same time, previous analyses have shown that the interventions are achievable and affordable. For example, a Kaiser Permanente program in Northern California increased control of hypertension to 90 percent among thousands of the health system's patients between 2001 and 2013, using strategies such as improved treatment protocols, patient-friendly services and healthcare information systems that facilitate tracking people with hypertension.
In another recent study published in the journal Lancet, poor diets are deemed responsible for more deaths around the world than any other risk factor, including cigarette smoking. For the study, researchers looked at people's eating habits across 195 countries in estimating how much poor diets contribute to mortality. According to their findings, 11 million people die each year around the world at least in part because of certain foods or lack thereof.
Researchers found that the problem is not only what people are eating but also what they are not eating. The study estimated that, globally, 3 million deaths can be attributed to too much sodium. Another 3 million deaths were attributed to a lack of adequate whole grains, while another 2 million deaths were attributed to a lack of adequate access to fruit. Physical inactivity and various environmental, economic and social circumstances were also major contributing factors.
The study findings reaffirmed what health professionals have been teaching for years: A balanced diet is important for a long healthy life. Hopefully, news of the study's results will help urge people to try to eat better and will help urge policymakers to create and promote policies that aim to increase consumption of healthful foods.
It should be no surprise to learn that the work lives of Americans are increasingly unpredictable and hectic. Another recent study of mothers with children found taking time to cook for their families to be a luxury they just do not have. A 2015 study found that 17 percent of people have jobs with irregular schedules, a disproportionate number of them low-income workers. Having little control over time makes it difficult for families to plan their meals in advance or even to know who will be there for dinner. These nonstandard work schedules are also associated with an increased risk of health problems.
What this study illustrates is that today's demanding workplaces, combined with the cultural expectation to parent, places a huge burden on families today. We need to do a better job of investing and supporting these families and their health.

Eugene Frenkel
HHematologist and oncologist Eugene Frenkel of the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center died on June 21, 2019. He was 89. Frenkel's research contributed to the understanding that vitamin B12 deficiency causes damage to neurons' myelin sheath, resulting in neural dysfunction. Frenkel also studied drug resistance in breast and genitourinary cancers.
Three academic chairs at UT Southwestern and multiple cancer research funds have been established in Frenkel's honor over the course of his career, according to a university statement.
Born in 1929 in Detroit, Michigan, Frenkel graduated from the University of Michigan Medical School in 1953. He interrupted his medical residency to serve as an officer and flight surgeon in the US Air Force. UT Southwestern recruited him to Dallas in 1962 as chief of the new Division of Hematology and Oncology. His 57-year career there ended with his death.
In the 1970s, working on animals and human tissue samples, Frenkel dissected the biochemical consequences of vitamin B12 deficiency, in particular, on fatty acid production. His diverse research repertoire later included investigations into circulating tumor cells and potential treatments for various cancers.
Colleagues and patients respected and appreciated Frenkel not only for his research but also for his compassionate bedside manner and his generosity as a mentor to students and other faculty members.
"I have a personal investment, a personal need to try to help others," Frenkel said in a video posted alongside the press release. "I grew up as a boyhood hoodlum in the streets of Detroit, and I emerged then into this area, and it became more than just personal survival but the recognition that what I do hopefully helps other people and hopefully broadens where we're going."
Frenkel is survived by his wife, Rhoda Frenkel, his two children, Lisa and Peter Frenkel, and his daughter-in-law, Asra Kermani, according to an obituary.

LIGHTNING ROUND: SOMEHOW, I THOUGHT SOCIALISM WOULD BE MORE MENACING.
by Mori Dinauer
Yesterday evening, Harry Reid failed to muster 60 votes to pass the $410 billion omnibus bill that funds the federal government for the remainder of the fiscal year, comprised mostly of holdovers from the twilight of the Bush administration. Elana Schor reports on the wrangling to get Ben Nelson and Robert Menendez on board despite their opposition to Cuba provisions contained in the bill, and CQ Politics looks at the possibility of Senate Democrats looking to pass Obama's budget (as opposed to the omnibus bill) under reconciliation rules that avoid the threat of a filibuster.
In addition to the science advisers being held up because of Menendez's hold (which apparently isn't his anymore), critical appointments at Treasury and the Council of Economic Advisers are being help up by anonymous Senate Republicans who appear to be engaged in a game of petty revenge for the Democratic stalling of some Bush nominees. No big deal, though. The economy is doing just great.
Compounding the problem of merely confirming nominees is the difficulty of attracting talent to these positions in the first place because of the draconian vetting process employed by the Obama administration to avoid political embarrassments and the blanket ban on lobbyists, as Ryan Grim reports.
Unquestionably, the right wing has settled on some combination of sloganeering about the threat of socialism and the faux populism of the "war on the rich" to frame their opposition to the Obama administration. Of course, this was quite predictable and we've been down this road before. But as I noted yesterday, if it is true that Obama is trying to redefine the center of the American political landscape -- and I think he is -- then it's crucial that his administration finds support from self-defined centrists and "cautious moderates" like David Brooks, who as Tim wrote earlier, "needed four senior White House aides to walk him through the public record before he could climb down from his roof and stop freaking out about the return of state socialism." This proves Brooks is somewhat malleable has at least one foot in the reality-based community. But what motivates one moderately conservative op-ed columnist isn't what motivates other moderate op-ed columnists, and the game changes entirely when looking at the motivations of preening centrists in Senate who can bring the nation's business to a halt on a whim. With this in mind, Obama's remark to Evan Bayh that he intends to "spend all my political capital in four years" is encouraging, but the true test is when the rubber hits the road in Congress.
Speaking of retreads, Karl Rove's comedy act is starting to get a little stale. Speaking with Fox News, the Lee Atwater protege sounded his concern that the Obama White House was employing the "same old style politics that we grew to really dislike in the 1990s, when the White House thought everything through from a political perspective" and keeping a "very keen eye towards the politics of the matter, not what was in the best interests of the country." I'm sure he'll repeat that punchline to chuckles when he defends his involvement in the U.S. Attorney firing scandal before the House Judiciary Committee.
I don't think we should be surprised that President Obama is "clinging" to "extraordinary executive power." It doesn't matter how personally ethical Obama is or how his views of executive authority differ from his predecessor. He inherited an array of powerful tools and precedents devised by Addington, Yoo and Cheney that were not challenged by Congress, regardless if it was because they couldn't or wouldn't challenge them. We always knew Bush's successor was going to have access to those tools regardless of party or ideology, and Obama's disposition toward them wasn't meant to be a guarantee against their abuse.
Remainders: The EFCA battle is going to get real ugly; MoveOn.org refines itself as something other than an opposition organization; Andrew Gelman has some nice maps and graphs breaking down socioeconomic voting patterns in the 2008 election; the GOP experiences epic fail on Hispanic outreach; Obama finally sits down with The New York Times; and the ICC (maybe) sets a precedent on prosecuting war criminals.

We've been doing this for a while now and we've learned a lot about what makes a great building. Yes, the location is important. And the renovations have to be right.
1. Have good credit. It's pretty tough to check references these days, because a lot of landlords are worried about being sued for saying the wrong thing (though we try!). So, we use a credit check as a proxy for looking at your financial reliability. In general, we don't mind debt – lot's of people have student loans. But we don't like late / missed payments, because if you're willing to stiff your lenders, you're probably willing to stiff us.
2. Have two or fewer pets. Some people like visiting zoos (not me, but that's a different story), but no one wants to live in them. It's not fair to the other people in the building if we allow in huge numbers of pets. So we might allow 1-2, depending on the building and the pets. But we're not allowing more.
3. Have some way of demonstrating sufficient income to cover the rent. Oh, you have no income? But you'd like me to give you a brand new, beautiful apartment in a great part of town, one that would cost me $3-5k to get back from you if you don't pay? I'm probably not signing up to that deal.
4. If you don't have great credit or a way to demonstrate income, be prepared to put down a larger deposit and/or have a co-signer. We totally understand that some people have weird/untraditional circumstances. Maybe you come from another country and don't have credit yet. Or maybe you don't work, but have some dough in the bank or a parent who foots the tab. That's cool… but we're going to need to make an explicit arrangement so that we're not left holding the bag.
5. Don't be a jerk. This one is slightly harder to quantify. But, if you miss appointments with our leasing people, treat our staff rudely, fail to answer calls / texts / emails, be assured that you won't get one of our apartment homes. There are plenty of nice people out there; life's too short to deal with jerks.

Q: Error when running a Webpack bundled Nodejs app I have a very simple application available at https://github.com/sbwrege2z/webpack-test.
Here's the code for the main application:
const UrlPattern = require('url-pattern');
const serviceWorkerRouter = require('service-worker-router');

const router = new serviceWorkerRouter.Router();

// THIS METHOD OF ROUTING DOES NOT CAUSE A PROBLEM:
router.get('/api/*', null);

// CAUSES BUNDLE TO BREAK:
router.get(new UrlPattern(/^\/api\/(.*)$/), null);

console.log('Hello world!');

When you run this file with "node src/index.js" you get the expected "Hello world!" output.
When you run the Webpack created bundle with "node dist/bundle.js" you get the error:
TypeError: argument must be a regex or a string

If you comment out the line with the "new UrlPattern(...)" the bundle will run without any issues.  Something with the regex method of defining the url pattern is causing this to break.
Does anyone know why this might be happening?

Update
I know what is causing the problem.  I just haven't come up with a solution yet.
The UrlPattern constructor expects a string or RegEx as the first argument.
The Router get method expects the first argument to be a string or a URLPattern.  If the first argument is NOT an instanceof UrlPattern, it creates a new UrlPattern with the first argument.  I'm sure the assumption is that it's a string or RegEx, but it doesn't check.
During minification something happens to that the Router does not recognize the first parameter passed to the get method as a UrlPattern, so it tries to create a new UrlPattern with the first argument (which is a UrlPattern).  Since the first argument to the UrlPattern constructor is neither a string or a RegEx, an error is thrown.
Possible Solution:
Figure out how to configure WebPack's minify process so that the UrlPattern is recognized as an instance of a UrlPattern.
Any ideas?

A: Changing the import fixes the problem:
const UrlPattern = require('service-worker-router').UrlPattern;

No changes to the Webpack configuration are necessary.

Cornerstone Endodontics - Are Root Canals Safe?
We are GLAD you are concerned, as are we! We are on your side.
It is the driving force that influences everything that we do. First, we absolutely agree with you. Endodontic treatment MUST be performed well to be safe and an infected tooth or a poorly done Root Canal Treatment can indeed be the source of pain and other health issues, like swelling or fever. That being said, while there is some very misguided, but we'll assume well-meaning, incorrect information on the internet, root canals DO NOT cause cancer or other systemic disease. Much of the misinformation stems from the 'focal infection theory' promulgated primarily by Dr. Weston Price in the 1920's and was pushed before modern concepts of how disease develops and spreads was known as they are now. His studies were hopelessly flawed, had no control groups, and were very poorly designed. Science unequivocally disproved that theory soon afterwards and there is absolutely zero peer-reviewed research supporting this theory. Those ideas are still floating in cyberspace and misrepresent modern medicine. We are open minded about holistic medicine and nutrition and other complimentary areas of medical treatment, but will not advocate treatment modalities that are dangerous or known to be incorrect. We believe that, certainly, some individuals have serious medical problems that have not been cured by modern medicine and it is imperative to do as much as possible to make every aspect of those patients' lives as healthy as possible. Often, we do recommend extraction when a patient is facing significant health challenges so that no resources need to be marshaled to deal with a healing infection or when there is a poor prognosis for the tooth. Many of the online 'theories' out there prey on the frustrations and worries of sick people who have not been cured and who are desperately looking for a simple answer to very complex health problems.
Endodontic treatment is very successful (well over 90%) in healthy patients when proper case selection parameters are followed. At Cornerstone Endodontics we constantly are searching for ways to improve your treatment. We assess every new product and process as they are developed and have invested in technology that goes even beyond modern, safe, predictable endodontics to cutting-edge state-of-the-art paradigm changing endodontics. Our Er:YAG lasers are the final step in truly disinfecting your tooth. Every case in our office is treated with the laser. Research has shown in multiple peer-reviewed journals that following laser treatment the tooth is not only cleaned at the macro level, but even the tubules are bacteria free and bacteria cannot be cultured from a tooth following laser disinfection. We are proud to offer you this service and are confident that you are receiving the best care possible.

Oxford scoops BBSRC Innovator of Year 2019
Comments Off on Oxford scoops BBSRC Innovator of Year 2019
Professor Achillefs Kapanidis from the University of Oxford's Department of Physics and Mr Bo Jing, CEO of Oxford Nanoimaging have been named as BBSRC's Innovator of the year 2019 – an award celebrating excellent research which demonstrates impact.
Twelve finalists competed for the title at the Science Museum in London last night, 15 May 2019. The overall award was presented by Chris Skidmore MP, Minister of State for Universities, Science, Research and Innovation.
The awards, now in their 11th year, are made in a number of categories that include: commercial impact, social impact, international impact and early career impact. BBSRC is the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council, part of UK Research and Innovation.
Professor Achillefs Kapanidis said: 'My laboratory – Oxford Gene Machines – develops novel ultrasensitive microscopy methods, and uses them to answer fundamental questions about molecular mechanisms of gene expression and DNA repair. Although our biological systems are bacteria and viruses, our studies are relevant to complex organisms, including humans. Our work is highly interdisciplinary, as witnessed by our diverse team and our collaborations with biomedical researchers.
'The inspiration for my scientific journey came from my introduction to the wonders of molecular biology and protein engineering during my graduate education, and from exciting developments in biophysics in the late 90's that permitted detection of single fluorescent molecules with unprecedented resolution. As a postdoctoral researcher in California, I combined these fields to uncover the complex sequence of events occurring during the initial transcription of DNA into RNA. Since these studies were done in the dawn of single-molecule biophysics, we innovated constantly to be able to examine delicate biomolecules in a sensitive yet robust fashion; those exciting years fully convinced me that innovation and cutting-edge research are inextricably linked.
'When I started my own lab, I realised that, to enable our methods to reach biologists and clinicians, and fulfill their enormous potential, easy access to single-molecule imaging was paramount; I thus dedicated significant time towards this goal. The product of this quest, the Nanoimager, is driving further innovation in hundreds of academic and industrial labs worldwide, including my own: we are now developing novel methods for rapid detection of antibiotic resistance and viral pathogens.
'Winning BBSRC Innovator of the Year 2019along with my co-inventor Bo Jing makes me proud and very happy, since it serves a tangible recognition of our long-term efforts and success of the spin-out company that commercialized our innovation. We are also excited about the opportunity to display, discuss and celebrate innovation at this fantastic BBSRC event.'
