Abstract: Permanent interconnection between lead frames and automotive hybrid circuits or multi-chip modules is achieved through aluminum wire bonding from the circuit or module bond pads to the aluminum areas on the lead frame. Aluminum to aluminum wire bonding has proven to be a robust process yielding reliable products.The lead frame raw material stock is manufactured using the clad inlay process. Stripes of aluminum are clad into a high conductivity copper alloy. Selective plating to accommodate separable interfaces may be applied to the strip or on stamped parts. After stamping, the parts are insert molded, then forwarded to the OEM for electronics integration, wire bonding and final assembly. During all stages of manufacturing, from initial cladding to wire bonding, the potential exists to damage the soft aluminum surface.
In this Materion Technical Materials study, clad aluminum surfaces were machined to generate a variety of defects. These damaged surfaces were quantified in terms of width and depth. Wire bonding was attempted within, and across the defects. Both bond pull strength and failure category were recorded. It was found that the aluminum-to-aluminum system is very tolerant of surface damage.


As a result of the steadily increasing circulation of Tuatara over the years, many of its present readers are unfamiliar with the history of its beginnings as a journal of the Biological Society, Victoria University of Wellington. The commencement of the tenth volume makes an appropriate milestone at which to review its early history.
The true origins of the journal well antedate the first printed issue in 1947, which arose largely as a development from an earlier cyclostyled form. In 1942. the members of the Biological Society had organised and participated in a considerable number of useful field excursions where we were fortunate in having the enthusiastic help of specialists in the flora and fauna of the selected areas to teach us the principles of field identification. During one programme on the slopes of Mt. Hector, a long evening session on identification and community ecology raised the comment that a summary of the observations ought to be put on record for the others to use or extend in future. Insofar as it is ever possible to say that a publication began at a particular moment, I would say that the first cyclostyled Tuatara originated at this discussion in Field Hut. Of names suggested for the proposed journal, Tuatara was chosen because the tuatara is not only unique to New Zealand but its best-known colony is at Stephens Island, Cook Strait, close to the Wellington area.
Brief reports of the main field excursions of 1942 were prepared, and my foreword as President of the Biological Society for that year expressed the hope that it might stimulate 'interest in the living organism and the mode of its living in natural surroundings'. Summaries of lectures given by invited speakers to the Biological Society in 1942 were included and the cyclostyled issue was distributed free of charge to members of the society.
My personal association with Tuatara ceased temporarily from 1943 until after I returned to Wellington in 1946 and joined the Department of Zoology as a junior member of staff. Discussions with the 1947 committee of the Biological Society showed that there was ample enthusiasm for reviving the journal in a new form. The Biological Society asked me to serve again as Editor and page 3 strongly supported a plan to produce the journal in printed form, for which Miss P. Ralph kindly consented to become publisher. It was clear from the number of copies required to justify printing that the journal would need to be made available to a wider group of readers than the members of the Victoria University College Biological Society alone, so from this point the journal has been distributed to any persons or institutions sufficiently interested to take out subscriptions.
Cover design of the first cyclo-styled issue of Tuatara in 1942. In the accompanying article the original editor, W. H. Dawbin, traces the origin of the present journal from this modest beginning.
As stated in the editorial of Volume I No. 1, the contents were planned to include reviews of biological work and problems in New Zealand and keys to aid the identification of one group of animals and one of plants in each issue, the text to be obtained if possible from specialists in each field. It is not always easy to persuade specialists to write for a new or little known publication and the society owes a special debt to those who had sufficient faith in the journal's future to provide sound articles and keys from the beginning and so set a standard which could be followed and built on progressively in subsequent issues.
Printing a new journal involves the problems of selecting page size, number of pages, type faces, blocks, cover design, search for advertisers and to these was added the problem that the society had no funds, nor did it have any foreseeable prospect of obtaining any except from the sale of copies after publication and that obtained from advertisements. One could hardly claim that a new journal with a first issue of 200 copies only was an attractive proposition to advertisers, so a major effort by student members and staff was needed to search for orders and we especially appreciated the help which was given by those who placed the first advertisements. Above all we needed an act of faith by a printer whose costs could be met only if we succeeded in selling most of the copies by cash sales. I am glad to record the way Tolan Printing Company saw us over the interim period of the first issue in particular. Later the number of permanent subscribers increased steadily. Larger numbers of copies could be printed and the price was increased to 2s. at Vol. III No. 2, so the situation during the publication of the first three volumes progressively eased.
At the tenth issue of Tuatara, i.e. Vol. IV No. 1, financial assistance from the Victoria University College Publications Fund was provided and continued over some subsequent issues. The immediate results were a change in cover to feature a tuatara, an increase in the number of illustrations, and range and styles of type face available from the Timaru Herald Co. Ltd. which has printed the journal from that time. However the general editorial policy remained substantially the same as that outlined in the first issue. The value of the zoological and botanical keys had been quickly appreciated and the number and diversity of groups treated have contributed their part to the increase of interest in the systematics of New Zealand animals and plants, while the general articles have covered a wide range of biological subjects.
As in all student populations, there have been changes in the membership of the Biological Society and its committee each year, so that many people have taken their turn at locating possible contributors and advertisers, testing keys for ambiguities to the uninitiated, correcting galleys and assembling page proofs, posting and distributing copies and working at other tasks involved in publishing a journal. The voluntary work of these and members of the staff of both the Zoology and Botany Departments made a valuable liaison between us all outside the classroom, and certainly made my own association with Tuatara a most enjoyable experience. While this ceased as editor on my transfer to Sydney in 1956 I have been impressed as a reader by many features of the recent issues and took especial note of the milestone passed by the publication of illustrations in colour. I wish every future success to Tuatara and all those associated with its continued production as an independent medium for the use of New Zealand and, to an increasing extent, overseas biologists.

Belkin 3.1 USB-C to USB-C Cable 0.91m is rated 3.0 out of 5 by 7.
Rated 5 out of 5 by BeauWaters from Buy Certified! I hopped around to different places to learn about Type C technology and the one key takeaway that I found time and time again was that the certification is a big deal if you want to get the most out of the technology. This cable is working great for me and seems really sturdy and well made -- which makes sense since it's certified by USB-IF which as I said, apparently is very important. Another hint, make sure you know exactly what USB-C cable you're getting and what it's in fact made for--do the research since it's pretty confusing and you want to make sure to get the right USB-C cable.
Rated 1 out of 5 by Flight505 from can't connect a 2016 macbook to a monitor I ordered the cable to connect a 2016 macbook to a ThinkVision X1 (USB-C) monitor. i am able to charge the Macbook directly using the Belkin cable dosent provide video signal..
Rated 5 out of 5 by Drew from the best This got high ratings on all of the e-commerce sites where I shop so I decided to pick one up. I don't know much about cables or USB-C for that matter but this is a super durable cable and high quality so I'm happy with the purchase and it's doing everything these cables claim to. Happy customer here.
Rated 2 out of 5 by natural cowboy from Won't Rapid Charge my Nexus5X with stock charger This cable which seems like it will support rapid charging but it wont with my Nexus5X stock charger. I bought Belkin as I have always had success but don't buy this if you are looking to do what I have tried. It charges fine at regular rate but will never display Rapid Charging.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Kitty17 from Next best thing Really loving this cable! New to USB - C but starting to think it truly is the next best thing.
Rated 1 out of 5 by GPar from Incapable of fast charging The cable is not able to fast charge my Nexus 5X even with the official charger.First time that belkin disappoints me.

Tiny technology, global impact: TI BAW resonator breakthrough creates new electronic heartbeat
Every electronic system has a heartbeat – a clock signal – that helps each component perform in perfect synchronization.
For decades, designers have used quartz crystals to generate this electronic heartbeat. The crystals oscillate, creating a precise rhythm. But when these expensive crystals start to wear down, they can jitter, or jump, impacting their accuracy over time.
Our company is announcing two new devices that incorporate bulk acoustic wave (BAW) resonators as a new type of electronic heartbeat. At 100 microns wide, these tiny timekeepers are smaller than the diameter of a human hair, yet they operate at frequencies much higher than quartz crystals and provide better system performance.
With the advent of more advanced communications networks and the age of big data, high-precision clocking is essential as massive amounts of data speed between systems around the world, connecting doctors to patients, farmers to livestock, and buildings to cars.
Our new TI BAW-based products promise to radically improve the performance of internal clocks and accelerate applications ranging from building automation to virtual health.
In the past, BAW resonator technology has been used to filter signals within communications technologies such as smartphones. Our company's use of this technology to provide an integrated clocking function is an industry first.
Learn more about TI's new BAW resonator technology.
No quartz needed: Introducing the industry's first crystal-less, wireless MCU
Our new products include the industry's first crystal-less wireless microcontroller (MCU), which integrates a TI BAW resonator within the package. This MCU will allow design engineers to create simpler, smaller designs while increasing performance and lowering costs. It will also speed time to market, since designers will be able to eliminate the process of selecting, calibrating and installing external quartz crystals.
"A critically important innovation is the ability to move and analyze massive amounts of data to make accurate, informed decisions," said Ray Upton, our vice president of connected microcontrollers. "Wireless networking is at the core of this data migration, and the ability to bridge the last mile through connected devices is a vital part of the data cycle."
By 2022, spending on IoT applications is expected to reach $1.2 trillion, up from an estimated $151 billion in 2018.* This rapid growth indicates that the Internet of Things is penetrating deeply into many markets, with 90 percent of business executives in technology, media, and telecom saying IoT is central to their business strategy.**
Our newest SimpleLink™ multi-standard MCU with TI BAW technology can be integrated into low-power radio-frequency devices, such as crystal-less Bluetooth® low energy and Zigbee® technologies to reduce radio-frequency performance issues created by external crystals.
Clean your clock: TI BAW-based network synchronizer eliminates digital noise
Our other BAW-enabled product is a TI BAW-based network synchronizer, which can be used in combination with quartz crystals to remove digital noise – or jitter – from input signals in the communication sub-system of wired or wireless infrastructure hardware in data center core networks. This will benefit telecom systems such as 5G networks.
"The clocking requirements of tomorrow's communications infrastructure extend beyond the capabilities of devices that today feature quartz crystal-based resonators," said Kim Wong, our vice president and general manager of high-speed data and clocks. "By integrating TI BAW resonators directly into clocking devices, we can deliver the ultra-low jitter performance and resiliency against vibration and shock demanded by the growing pipeline of data at the heart of this communications transformation."
How these tiny timekeepers work
Our TI BAW oscillator is an electronic oscillator circuit that uses the mechanical resonance of a vibrating micro-acoustic resonator (BAW) to generate a stable electrical signal through the piezoelectric effect. This precise signal at very high frequency provides the clocking and timing reference for electronic systems.
TI BAW-based products offer design engineers several advantages:
Smaller form factor. Because they're integrated into chip packages, circuit designers will no longer need to use separate clocking devices mounted on circuit boards.
Lower power in most cases. Many IoT applications require clocking systems to turn on quickly. The TI BAW-based oscillator wakes up 100 times faster than quartz crystals.
A lower level of digital noise. Our network synchronizer chip delivers a jitter performance better than the best-performing device on the market today.
Cleaner clock. The TI BAW resonator offers an ultra-clean clock reference, which is essential for high-speed data transfers of hundreds of gigabits per second. It also can be integrated with a radio frequency (RF) chip as a single-chip radio solution.
As 5G networks and future-generation communication technologies emerge, the implications will range from business and commerce to health care, agriculture and education.
Once the communications infrastructure is in place to support the transmission of huge amounts of data, companies and governments will want to provide a wireless overlay to connect point-to-point over the last mile, from objects communicating with each other in a warehouse to communication between smartphones and thermostats, heartrate monitors and a host of other devices.
"Our TI BAW resonator technology will pave the way for the next generation of industrial and telecommunication applications by changing how we approach system designs," Ray said.

Frits Julius Wissel (Sneek, 21 januari 1907 - Arnhem, 9 oktober 1999) was een Nederlandse marinepiloot die in 1936 vanuit zijn cockpit een merencomplex in Nederlands Nieuw-Guinea ontdekte dat daarna naar hem werd vernoemd: de Wisselmeren.

Frits Wissel, zoon van de Sneker huisarts F.W. Wissel, studeerde in 1929 af als ingenieur in Zürich, maar door de mondiale depressie lukte het hem niet een baan in zijn vak te krijgen. Hij meldde zich daarop aan bij de Koninklijke Marine, waar hij een opleiding kreeg tot piloot. Na een korte tijd te hebben gediend in Nederlands-Indië werd hij overgeplaatst naar Nieuw-Guinea, waar hij werd gedetacheerd bij de Nederlands Nieuw-Guinea Petroleum Maatschappij (NNGPM) als een van de piloten van de twee Sikorsky watervliegtuigen die de maatschappij rijk was.

Wissel speelde een belangrijke rol in de voorfase van de legendarische Carstensz-expeditie van 1936, waaraan hij ook zelf zou deelnemen. Door zijn verkenningsvluchten vooraf maakte hij het Colijn en Dozy mogelijk hun route naar de "eeuwige sneeuw" van Nieuw-Guinea, het einddoel van de expeditie, nauwkeurig uit te stippelen.

Na 1936 was Wissel gestationeerd op het eiland Japen in de Geelvinkbaai (nu Teluk Cenderawasih). Tijdens een vlucht over het binnenland zag hij onverwacht een groot meer met kano's onder zich. Met zijn Leica-camera maakte hij de eerste foto's van wat hij vanuit de lucht waarnam; tijdens een herhaalvlucht kon worden bevestigd dat een door mensen bewoond onbekend deel van het Centrale Bergland door hem was ontdekt.

Tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog werkte Wissel in Australië een tijd voor de Allied Geographical Section. Na de oorlog keerde hij als marinepiloot terug naar Nieuw-Guinea, met als basis het Molukse eiland Morotai. Na zijn tijd bij de marine was hij van 1957 tot aan zijn pensioen in 1972 als docent verbonden aan de Hogere Technische School in Delft, Den Haag en Arnhem.

Milan – Inter: "A great match," AC Milan goalkeeper Christian Abbiati
November 20, 2014 AC Milanadmin
MILAN- Christian Abbiati spoke exclusively to the Milan Channel on Thursday afternoon. This is what he had to say, starting with this Sunday's derby match with Inter:
"It will be a great match, not easy, but a great match. We've felt the pressure a bit more this week. Last week we didn't have a full squad. Experiencing the derby as a coach isn't the same as a player. For Inzaghi it's his first time as a coach and I hope it brings him luck. The best goal in the derby? In my opinion Shevchenko's in the second leg of the Champions League. The team are up for it and want to repeat the performance against Sampdoria where despite drawing, we had an excellent match. We're on the right road, there's definitely a long way to go, but the coach is helping the side develop in the right way. The group is calm and focused on the job that we're doing. Emotions will be sky high when we arrive at the stadium on Sunday and we will show that Milan are ready. The forwards are fundamental. I don't know who will take to the pitch. Perhaps Stephan, who was able to end his goal drought against Sampdoria and he could break the deadlock during the match. Should Diego score then that would be fine as well!"
Abbiati also had the chance to speak about the past and a golden period under Carlo Ancelotti: "Those were unforgettable years with Ancelotti, it's difficult to have as strong a team as that again, but coach Inzaghi is really good in making everyone feel a part of the group. I have a good relationship with the coach, it's hard now to have the same relationship as when we were players, as he now has a different role and I behave around him as a player would with a coach."
The shot-stopper analysed his time with the Italian national side as well as praising the Milan fans for their brilliant support: "I had an excellent relationship with the national side, I was surrounded by brilliant goalkeepers like Toldo, Peruzzi and Buffon and so I preferred to think more about Milan and stay with the squad and train. I've got a brilliant relationship with the fans, they've always been close to me, even in the tough moments. They're great supporters, which was shown last year in those first difficult 6 months and they showed they really care about this team. We tried to repay them in part in the second half of the season."

Ryan Reynolds Looks Absurdly Handsome in InStyle's October Issue
Inside the October issue of InStyle, on newsstands this Friday, actor Ryan Reynolds speaks out about ruling the big screen and being a new father. Below is an excerpt of his interview. To read the full feature, pick up the October issue of InStyle, available on newsstands and for digital download September 18.

With its weathered shingles and white picket railings, Shutters on the Beach is so New England it hurts. But for all its East Coast allure, the renowned Santa Monica hotel is flanked by palm trees, swarmed by Rollerbladers, and steps away from the sand. Call it Cape Cod on the California coast. Every window is a study in blue, and so too is Ryan Reynolds. In a blue Officine Générale shirt, blue Nudie jeans, and natural white Converse sneakers, he perfectly matches the view. "I actually like L.A. a lot more now that I don't live here," the New York-based actor muses in his distinctive, even tone. His voice, like Jack Nicholson's, never seems to rise or fall. His career is another story.
Reynolds soared to considerable heights opposite Sandra Bullock in 2009's workplace rom-com The Proposal. But like another captive of the genre, Matthew McConaughey, Reynolds admits to wrestling with what to do with his star power. "I made a lot of choices that were driven by the word 'should,'" he reflects, contemplating his San Pellegrino. "But the ones that are most satisfying are driven by the words 'I want.'" Falling in the latter category, Mississippi Grind (out Sept. 25) promises more than just satisfaction. With early raves and his deeply moving performance as Curtis, a charismatic drifter burdened by good luck, the film might do for Reynolds what Dallas Buyers Club did for McConaughey. This month, let the anticipated Reynoldsaissance begin.
Many of your characters, from Van Wilder to Mississippi Grind's Curtis, exude outsize amounts of confidence. Do you relate?
"Oh, I know how to play that in a film, but I don't have that kind of swagger in my life. My insecurity-to-confidence ratio is 90:10. I can kind of turn it on, but it's not me."

Do you remember your first date?
"Christine. She was very pretty and a grade older than me. A year's difference in high school is a chasm you can't bridge. I might as well have been 20 years younger. She wanted to go to this restaurant in Vancouver that I hadn't even heard of. I didn't know if I had enough to pay for the dinner, so I faked a stomach-ache and only ate the bread. I just made the bill with a really crappy tip. I remember I wore, like, a hideous '90s poncho. Not a full-on Mexican poncho. It had a weird tapestry in the front and a hood attached. She was dressed like she was going to the Met Ball."
Your style has definitely evolved since then. Do you have a style icon?
"I do for movies. For Mississippi Grind, which has a '70s vibe, I looked to Robert Redford. But Marlon Brando had fantastic style. Even into his later years, when he just rocked muumuus."
Matthew Brookes
You're the youngest of four brothers. Was acting a response to that?
"—One hundred percent. When you're the youngest of four aggressive males, your defense mechanism isn't going to be your fists—it's going to be something else. My mind is the thing that got me through it without too many broken bones. One of the reasons I started performing was just to get out of the house."
Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck wrote and directed Mississippi Grind and Half Nelson. Both films star handsome Canadian actors named Ryan.
"I did have joke with them. My character breaks his nose in the movie, and I said 'I kind of look like Gosling now.' We were shooting in the streets of New Orleans, and as soon as I had that nose on, everybody who walked up to me asked if I was Gosling."
Mississippi Grind tells the story of two gamblers—one with good luck, one with bad—making a run south in a Subaru hatchback. What's the craziest road trip you've ever been on?
"I once tried to ride a motorcycle from Sydney to Perth, Australia. It ended three weeks into it with a crash and a few other problems. I got bitten by some sort of spider that gave me the worst infection you've ever seen in your life. My friend totaled his bike. He split it in half. It's amazing that he walked away from it."

Within three years it had cemented itself as the nation's primary source of entertainment. Television changed the way Australians spent their leisure time - people began staying at home, rather than going out to the cinema or other venues.
See Image 1 Television exposed Australians to American culture on a larger scale than ever before. Inevitably, the influence of television would prompt marked social change in Australia, as people began to identify with and emulate the values, ideas and trends diffused by popular American television programmes like Perry Mason and I Love Lucy.
Australians were not just passive recipients of American culture, however. As television helped bridge the nation's geographical isolation, Australians were able to stay abreast of global events and developments like never before. Thus, Australians were able to participate in important social changes, like the women's liberation movement, rather than simply hearing about it afterwards.
Television also played an important role in the evolution of Australia's national identity. It created a forum for uniquely Australian stories to be played out and allowed Australians to share different cultural experiences.
It also provided a direct channel for American and British values, humour and style to influence Australian society. The development of television From the s onwards, television was widely enjoyed as a cheap, easily accessible form of entertainment. Australian television channels began broadcasting in colour in Colour technology rejuvenated interest in the medium and allowed certain kinds of shows well-suited to colour, like music and sport programmes, to flourish.
In the s, technological advancements like digital television and pay TV, granted people a much wider range of programming choices. Movies, music, comedy, sport and news could now be accessed 24 hours a day. Pay TV in Australia was not embraced as quickly as other forms of entertainment had been in the past, but its uptake still compared favourably with that of other countries.
Init was estimated that 5 percent of households subscribed to pay TV, rising to 11 percent in and 17 percent by the end of the decade.
Currently, around 25 percent of Australian families subscribe to pay TV. Television's negative impact Paralleling television's ever-increasing popularity, however, were concerns about the impact of television on everyday life. Many parents, psychologists and health experts feared that long hours spent watching television led to a number of problems, including: News, current affairs and videotape In the early s, the advent of videotape had an immediate impact on television production.
It enabled the efficient recording, preservation, re-broadcasting and resale of television programmes. In the early days of television, much live broadcasting was not recorded at all and was lost completely.

Some news images were recorded onto film, but it was a slow, laborious and expensive process. Later, some television broadcasts were recorded onto kinescopes, which involved recording the programme onto film from a television screen while it was being broadcast.

Making Gaza a 'European Ghetto'
August 3rd, 2010 - by admin
Lamis Andoni / Al Jazeera – 2010-08-03 00:55:45
http://english.aljazeera.net/focus/2010/07/2010728133548536702.html
(August 1, 2010) — While most Israeli leaders are resistant to fully lifting the blockade of Gaza, Avigdor Lieberman, the right-wing foreign minister, is advocating that Israel abandon the Strip to international monitoring and economic rehabilitation. The proposal, recently leaked to the Israeli press, does not amount to freeing Gaza but rather to placing it under European sea and land inspections and a reconstruction plan.
If implemented, it will permanently sever the Gaza Strip from the West Bank, transforming the Strip into an internationally supervised ghetto – with the dual purpose of ensuring Israeli security and reigning in the Palestinian population.
The isolation of Gaza would further undermine the vision of a contiguous Palestinian state or any form of equitable coexistence between Palestinians and Israelis. It would also divide those families with members in the West Bank, creating a permanent schism in Palestinian society and deepening the sense of fragmentation.
Hamas would effectively be ruling a development project with no meaningful ties to the rest of the Palestinian people.
Lieberman's proposal is interlinked with the calls by his rightwing Yisrael Beituna party for the eviction of Israel's Arab minority and Palestinians in the West Bank and East Jerusalem as it serves the same vision of an exclusively Jewish state and the elimination of the national rights and aspirations of the Palestinian people.
As such it cannot be fully dismissed — not only because Yisrael Beituna is a partner in the current government, with 15 seats in the 120-seat Knesset, but also because Israeli leaders have previously sought to isolate Gaza and its population.
While Israel has always firmly held on to its direct occupation of the West Bank — and sought to annex parts of it — in contrast, many Israeli leaders consider — and have treated — the Gaza Strip as a burden.
In Israel, the West Bank and Jerusalem are presented and perceived as part of the historic homeland of Israel, with many Israelis calling the West Bank by its biblical name, Judea and Samaria. Israeli leaders have always wanted to reach a deal with the Palestinians over the West Bank and Jerusalem — partly to legitimate the annexation of East Jerusalem and parts of the West Bank.
But Gaza presents a demographic nightmare for Israel. As one of the most densely populated areas in the world — about 1.6 million people in 360 square kilometres — it is almost impossible for Israel to transfer enough settlers to the Strip to ensure a Jewish majority.
In 1992, during the first intifada, Yitzhak Rabin, the late Israeli prime minister, expressed his wish that Gaza would just "sink into the sea." A year later, convinced that Israel could not continue to control the Palestinian people, he signed the Oslo Accords with Yasser Arafat, the late Palestine Liberation Organisation leader.
But Ariel Sharon, the former Israeli prime minister who remains in a persistent vegetative state after suffering a stroke in 2006, found a way of transforming Gaza from an Israeli burden into a Palestinian problem. In 2005, he ordered a unilateral withdrawal of Israeli troops and the evacuation of 7,000 settlers from the Gaza Strip, without giving up Israeli control of Gaza's sea and land crossings.
The former general, who did not believe in dealing with the Palestinians, did not coordinate this with the Palestinian Authority (PA), thus successfully widening the already growing rift between Hamas and Fatah.
Hamas, who five months earlier had won parliamentary elections, hailed the "liberation" of the Strip as "a victory for armed resistance", contrasting its "success" in freeing Gaza with the "failure" of Fatah's negotiations with Israel.
But Gaza has, in effect, remained under Israeli occupation, enabling Israel to impose a sea and land blockade for the past three years and to further weaken the ties between the Strip and the West Bank.
Israel would not have been able to achieve this without Palestinian assistance — for while Israel fuelled the division, Hamas and Fatah failed dismally to maintain national unity.
Hamas' military takeover of Gaza in 2007 — motivated in part by its fear that Fatah would try to overrun it with American help — effectively turned the West Bank and Gaza Strip into two separate entities with different governments.
Seen in this context Lieberman's plan would be the completion of what Sharon started and Palestinian divisions helped to augment — the physical and political severing of the Gaza Strip from the Palestinian entity.
Lieberman's proposal includes several elements, which together or separately pose a serious threat to the Palestinians and the cause of peace.
The plan proposes that Israel seal its border with Gaza and leave it to the European Union (EU) to check Gaza-bound vessels for weapons in Cyprus or Greece. It also calls for a European military force to be stationed on the Israel-Gaza border and for European military assistance in preventing weapon smuggling.
It also calls for the EU to finance the building of a new power plant, a seawater desalination plant and a wastewater purification plant to end Gaza's dependence on Israel for electricity and water.
The international community, according to the plan, will be required to support the construction of homes for Gazans, presumably including those destroyed by Israel during its war on the Gaza Strip in 2009.
So while Gaza might become more prosperous under such a plan, it would essentially be transformed into a European protectorate and placed under the military and financial control of a European monitoring body that would guarantee Israeli "security needs" are met while keeping Gazans caged in their small strip of land.
Breaking Palestinian Will
This proposal not only limits the vision of Palestinian statehood, but is also designed to break the will of the Palestinian people — reducing them to a population consumed by the immediate needs of living at the expense of their freedoms and aspirations.
While it might provide a deceptive sense of peace and calm for Israelis in the short-term, and temporarily subdue the Gazan population, it will ultimately obstruct chances for a viable, long-term peace and lead to further hostilities in both the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.
Gazans may witness an improvement in their economic status, but this will be at the expense of their freedoms and aspirations, which cannot be satisfied by prosperity alone. Gazans are part of a larger nation and any attempt to deny this will only further radicalise Palestinians.
The proposal may serve Lieberman's rightwing, racist agenda, in which Palestinians are viewed not as people with human rights and national aspirations but as an obstacle to be either marginalised, or better still, removed. But it will permanently submit Palestinians to the mercy of others and irreversibly alter any vision for peace.
But the Palestinians are not guiltless or powerless in this — it is in their hands to achieve the Palestinian national reconciliation that would make such proposals meaningless.

Chip Kelly says neither weight nor contract a factor in Kaepernick's playing time
Chip Kelly says neither weight nor contract a factor in Kaepernick's playing time
Oct 10, 2016 at 12:08 PM • --
San Francisco 49ers head coach Chip Kelly was on Murph & Mac on KNBR 680 this morning and discussed the topic consuming the majority of the talk among the media since Thursday's loss to the Arizona Cardinals – the status of the quarterback position.
Kelly discussed some of the factors that contributed to the team's latest loss. As he said last week, Kelly indicated that turnovers and tackling contributed greatly to the team's fourth straight defeat.
Regarding which quarterback – Blaine Gabbert or Colin Kaepernick – will start on Sunday on the road against the Buffalo Bills, Kelly said that he and his coaching staff were meeting today to discuss the topic. "We'll get together as a staff today and look at our game plan in terms of moving forward and what we're going to do everywhere," Kelly said. "As I said the day after the game in our press conference, we've got to evaluate everything and part of it is looking at what kind of game plan we're going to put together for the Bills and meet with our training staff. Find out who's available and go from there."
Kelly was asked if it was fair to say that he was leaving the door open for a change at quarterback. "No. It's fair to say that we're looking at every option we have to be a good football team. I don't think it's different from any other position. Obviously, that position gets the most notoriety but we have to look at everything right now."
Kelly touched on Kaepernick's new contract, which is reportedly in the works, and if the injury clause in the current contract has been a factor in the quarterback playing or not. "I don't get that part because he played in our first game," Kelly answered. "So, I've never been told not to play him or he shouldn't play. If I was told not to play him, then why did he play in the first game against the Rams if I was concerned about his contract or him getting hurt?"
"It's never been an issue," Kelly continued. "I've never been told by anybody in this building who to play at any position so anybody that was on our 53-man roster or who's been active for the 46-man roster is available to us on game day. And Colin played in the first game versus the Rams so I don't know where – people can speculate and say whatever they want. But if that was the case, why did he play in game one?"
Kelly reaffirmed that he has never been given hints, smoke signals, or morse code telling him who to play or not to play.
Regarding Kaepernick's weight, Kelly said that is not a factor either. "There's no weight limit that he has to get to whether he plays or doesn't play," Kelly said. "But the point was is where is he in his rehabilitation? And I answered that question and then people ran with it and said, 'Well, if he doesn't weight 225, he's not going to play.' This isn't pop warner. There is no weight limit in terms of him playing. The point I'm trying to make is I think Colin has worked extremely hard at the rehab part of what he's done. What people lose sight of is that Kaepernick missed all of last season from when he got hurt and through the rehab part because he had shoulder surgery, thumb surgery, and knee surgery that prevented him from working out the way he normally works out.
"Since he has been cleared to go when we got back here in August, he's worked his tail off. I mean, he's as hard a working guy as we have on our team in terms of everything and what he's put into this thing. So there is no 'If he gets to a certain weight, he plays.' It's just pointing out where is he – when I'm asked a question – where he is in his rehab, he's not back to where he was when he was leading this team to the Super Bowl. That's my only point."
You can listen to the entire interview on the Murph & Mac podcast.
49ers' Kyle Shanahan discusses Cowboys playing on short week
When the San Francisco 49ers kick off against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, eight days will have passed since their last game, a 41-23 Wild Card win over the Seattle Seahawks. Only six days will have passed for the Cowboys since their previous game, a 31-14 Monday night win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. San Francisco, the home team, has an obvious advantage with two extra days to recover and prepare for this weekend's postseason clash. However, it's something that the team's head coach believes is sometimes overemphasized. "I think it can be an advantage. Sometimes it can be a disadvantage," Kyle Shanahan told reporters on Wednesday. "I know the obvious ones—that you get less rest, less time to recover." No NFL team is a stranger to a short
WR Brandon Aiyuk: 49ers have chip on their shoulder after recent playoff losses
The San Francisco 49ers are facing off against the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship on Sunday, with the winner facing off against either the Cincinnati Bengals or the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl. This is a stage familiar for the 49ers, as they've made the NFC Championship Game in three of the past four seasons now, losing to the Los Angeles Rams last season, while going to the Super Bowl in 2019 after a win over the Green Bay Packers. However, despite seeing consistent success, the 49ers haven't accomplished their No. 1 goal: winning a Super Bowl, which has left a chip on their shoulder as they strive to hit that goal this season. When asked about the topic, wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk agreed with the sentiment about having a chip
George Kittle's big-time catch: The turning point for the 49ers against the Cowboys
The San Francisco 49ers defeated the Dallas Cowboys in a close game, winning to the score of 19-12 after their defense created multiple stops at the end of the game. The game was tight for the entire 60 minutes, with a Brett Maher field goal tying the score at 9-9 with 9:06 remaining in the third quarter. For the remainder of the quarter, neither team gained much offensive momentum, but one play ultimately turned the ship for the 49ers, leading them to a touchdown that occurred to begin the 4th quarter: a Brock Purdy to George Kittle dime from an off-schedule play. Purdy had initially faked a handoff before rolling to his left, but to his dismay, both of San Francisco's top reads on the play, Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel were
49ers looking to overcome hostile environment vs. Eagles, says DeMeco Ryans
The San Francisco 49ers have a formidable obstacle in the way of their second Super Bowl appearance in four years. They'll travel to Philadelphia this weekend to face the top-seeded Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field. In addition to battling a difficult opponent, they'll have to find a way to block out the passionate Philly fanbase. "The environment, it'll be hostile, it'll be loud, as it should be," defensive coordinator DeMeco Ryans told reporters before Thursday's practice. "NFC Championship Game. We're in their stadium. We're on their turf. We also understand it's going to be hostile, but you also have to understand you block out all those distractions, and you just go and play the best football you can play for three-and-a-half hours."

You've dreamed about writing a book someday. You believe you have a story inside you that will amaze and inspire people. You've tried to write it down, and have sketched out some ideas here and there. Maybe you have notebooks or computer files that are filled with writing but you're realizing that all these bits and pieces aren't adding up to a book. Do you need to hire a ghostwriter to write your book?
1. Do I understand what a ghostwriter can do for me? A ghostwriter, or "work-for-hire" writer, writes for other people but does not receive public credit and her name won't appear on the book jacket or the book's copyright notice. She's a "ghost" because she works invisibly, behind the scenes. A ghostwriter for a book structures and shapes the book, including its scenes or sections, and renders the expert's ideas on the page in a way that is true to her client's vision. Her client, not the ghostwriter, retains the claim to the book's copyright and takes responsibility for the material in the pages. A professional ghostwriter can alert her client to potential legal issues, but ultimately, the book she will ghostwrite will be her client's baby. In fact, you might think of a ghostwriter as a professional midwife for books.
2. Do I want to work on the skill of writing a book or do I simply want my story and ideas told in my voice? An excellent ghostwriter will listen to how you express yourself in person or over the phone. She will notice the complexity of your sentence structure, your pet phrases, and your tone. Then, as she begins to ghostwrite your book, she'll create a voice that sounds as if it were yours. She knows that if you're serious and dignified, your voice on the page should be different than if you're playful and whimsical.
If your heart tells you that it's you who must write every word of your book, you must be willing to master the craft of writing a book. Hire a writing coach, take writing classes, and read books on writing. Commit to the time it will take to master your craft and write your book. If you hire a ghostwriter when you truly want to be the writer, you'll find it difficult to create a good partnership with her. You need to trust the ghostwriter to capture your voice and ideas or she won't be able to do her job properly.
3. Do I have the money to hire someone to interview me and write a book based on my life or ideas? It can take hundreds of hours of a ghostwriter's time to interview you and ghostwrite a quality book for you. You'll need tens of thousands of dollars to hire a professional ghostwriter to ghostwrite a memoir, self-help book, or novel based on your ideas and synopsis. If you procure a book contract and an advance against future earnings from a publisher, you can use that money to hire someone to ghostwrite or coauthor your book. If your budget is too tight to pay a five-figure fee to a book ghostwriter, remember that you get what you pay for. Will you be content with a book that isn't well structured or well-written, a book that doesn't have rich ideas and a narrative flow that's engaging and entertaining? If you don't have a publishing contract and paying a ghostwriter will be a problem for you, see question #1 and rethink whether you might be willing to learn to write the book yourself rather than hire someone to ghostwrite a book for you.
4. Do I know what I want to say? Everyone has ideas and stories to write about, but you may not have enough to say to fill a book unless you work with a professional ghostwriter who can draw stories out of you, find the narrative arc to your book, and help you develop your ideas. In fact, if you want to write your own book and you have good writing skills, but are stuck on what to say, you may not need a ghostwriter so much as a developmental editor. A developmental editor can help you flesh out your ideas and structure your book.
Whatever your goal, don't let fear, insecurity, or embarrassment influence your decision about whether to write your book yourself or hire a ghostwriter to ghostwrite it for you. If you honor your strengths as well as your weaknesses, you'll come to the right decision for you regarding who should write your book. Know what type of assistance you need and you won't regret your decision, whatever it turns out to be.

Post-doctoral Research Fellow
Awards and Outreach
I am a Post-doctoral Research Fellow in the theoretical cosmology group, and a Fellow of All Souls college.
The major focus of my research is theories of modified gravity and their observational consequences. These theories are proposed in order to explain the accelerating expansion of our universe, and testing them is a key target for current and future experiments. I am particularly interested in developing mathematical tools to link theoretical and observational work, and constructing novel, model-independent probes of gravity.

In the 90s, the Right Backs played with the number 2 and the Left Backs played with number 3.
He spent the entire career with a very successful AC Milan and won 5 Champions League titles. He added another 7 Serie A titles to an incredible haul of 26 trophies in his time with Milan.
He played for Milan from 1985 to 2009 and also represented Italy for a record 126 matches. Being right footed he started as right back but Arrigo Sacchi (Milan manager) converted him into a left back and rest as they say became history. He was nominated for Ballon d'Or twice and won several individual awards.
Carlos Alberto captained his Brazilian national team to 1970 final scoring what widely regarded as one of the greatest goals in world cup history and that too in the final. Carlos Alberto played most of his peak career at Santos alongside Pele and won every trophy possible for a footballer.
He scored 8 international goals in 53 appearances for Brazil.
Another Brazilian in this list top 10. Roberto Carlos came into limelight when he moved from Palmeiras to Inter Milan in 1995 but after one season he was sold to Real Madrid where he went on to become one of the greatest players of all times. He won three Champions League titles and another 4 league titles in his 11 years at the club.
Robert Carlos scored some signature long range free-kicks hence named el hombre bala ("the bullet man").
Giacinto Facchetti was a typical Italian full back and he contributes to Inter Milan's dominance in 1960's. Facchetti is widely regarded as one of the greatest Left Back of all times. He won 4 Serie A titles from 1963 to 1971 and also guided Inter to back to back European Cup triumphs in 1964 and 1965. He scored 59 goals in 475 apps.
He also played 94 times for Italy and won the 1968 European Championship.
Like Roberto Carlos is a legend for the left wing of Brazil, Cafu is a legend for the right wing of Brazil.
Cafu moved from Palmeiras to AS Roma where he spent 7 years winning one Serie A title before moving to AC Milan where he won one more Serie A title and 1 Champions League. Cafu is also the most capped player for Brazil with his 143 Apps winning the World Cup twice (1994 and 2002).
Like Giacinto Facchetti, Zanetti is a Legend of Inter Milan. He played from 1995 and stayed with the club throughout his career. Zanetti was known as "El Tractor" for his tireless energetic runs up and down the flanks.
He captained Inter Milan for most of 2000's and won 5 Scudetti, 4 Coppa Italia and 1 Champions League. With his national team Argentina he made over 143 Apps winning 2 Copa America titles.
In terms of sheer ability, Ashley Cole was as good as anybody when it comes to left back position. Started out in Arsenal youth before promotion to the first team where he made the left back position his own. After winning 2 premier league titles and 3 FA Cups with Arsenal he controversially moved to Chelsea where he won one more Premier League, 4 FA Cups and added Champions League to his honors.
Cole was very solid at the back and improved throughout his career going forward. He finished in PFA team of the year on 5 separate occasions and 2 times in UEFA team of the year.
Thuram started his professional career with Monaco in 1991 winning the Coupe de France. In 1996 moved to Parma. With the Ducali he won the Coppa Italia 1999, the Italian Supercup 1999 and the UEFA Cup 1999.
In the summer of 2001, Thuram made a transfer to Juventus. With the bianconeri he won 2 Serie A (2002 and 2003) and 1 Italian Supercup (2002).
He finished his career with Barcelona, winning a Supercopa de España (2006).
He is the most capped player in the history of the France national team with 142 appearances between 1994 and 2008. With France, Thuram won the 1998 FIFA World Cup and UEFA Euro 2000.
Philip Lahm is a Legend of Bayern Munich. He won 7 Bundesliga titles, 6 domestic cups, 1 Champions League. Lahm is a gifted football who could play anywhere in the defense and midfield.
Lahm was also an important player for Germany. He won the World Cup in 2014.
De Boer spent most of his professional playing career with Ajax, winning five Eredivisie titles, two KNVB Cups, one UEFA Cup and one UEFA Champions League. He later spent five years at Barcelona, where he won the 1999 La Liga title, before retiring after short spells at Galatasaray, Rangers, Al-Rayyan, and Al-Shamal.
De Boer is the most capped outfield player in the history of the Netherlands national team, with 112 caps. He captained the Oranje to the semi-finals of both the 1998 FIFA World Cup and UEFA Euro 2000.
Next story Franz Beckenbauer The Kaiser. He won everything, Ballon d'or included.

Q: UPS battery connection In a new UPS system, the batteries connection can be either:
One series connection of 100 cells.
Or a different battery with a different voltage that can give the same Ah by connecting three battery strings in parallel, where each battery string is made of 20 cells in series.
So, the total number of batteries will be 60.
Ignoring the cost, which option is more reliable?

♦ With their three-game losing streak now in the rear-view mirror, the Lions enter the second half of the season with a decent chance of winning their first division title since 1993.
No one's saying it's a lock, and the Minnesota Vikings (6-2) are still the favorites. But given the Lions already have a win over the Vikings in Minnesota, and that they play just one team with a winning record the rest of the season — the Vikings at Ford Field on Thanksgiving — there's no reason they shouldn't have a home playoff game come January.
Sure, the Lions haven't looked very good against the best teams on their schedule — the New Orleans Saints, Pittsburgh Steelers, Carolina Panthers and Atlanta Falcons — but if they can beat the Vikings later this month and scrounge up wins against Cleveland Browns, Chicago Bears, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the like, they'll win the division.
♦ After a rough October in which he threw five touchdown passes and committed six turnovers, all Matthew Stafford needed was a game against the NFL's 23rd-ranked defense to get back on track. Stafford played maybe his best game of the season Monday, completing 26-for-33 passes for 361 yards and two touchdowns.
♦ If he could play the Packers every week, Marvin Jones would be a star. Jones had his second straight big game Monday, catching seven passes for 107 yards and two touchdowns. He now has 18 catches for 388 yards and four scores in three games against the Packers as a Lion. Golden Tate was good as well, finishing with seven catches for 113 yards.
♦ The Lions scored on their first red-zone possession, when they handed the ball to Ameer Abdullah three straight times, but they showed in the fourth quarter that their red-zone offense — particularly their running game — is still an issue.
The Lions opened the fourth with first-and-goal from the 1-yard line and failed to gain a yard on three consecutive plays. Abdullah was topped for no gain and fumbled — Rick Wagner recovered — on first down. Theo Riddick was stopped for no gain on second down. And Stafford was stuffed on a quarterback sneak on third down. Later in the game, Dwayne Washington lost 6 yards on a goal-line toss play.
The Lions simply can't run the ball in short-yardage situations. Their offensive line is a big part of the problem, and it's something general manager Bob Quinn must address this off-season.
♦ One other negative for the night: Abdullah, who had fumble problems in college and as a rookie, had two fumbles Monday and spent the fourth quarter, after that goal-line possession, on the bench. Given that Abdullah is the Lions' only remotely serviceable every-down back, they need to solve that problem quickly.
