Where Israel is involved expect trouble
UN peacekeeper, 2 IDF soldiers killed: Israel, Hezbollah exchange fire
An anti-tank missile hit an IDF vehicle in the Golan Heights, prompting an exchange of fire between the Israeli army and Hezbollah, which claimed responsibility for the attack. A UN peacekeeper and two IDF soldiers have been killed.
The Israeli Defense Forces vehicle was struck by an anti-tank missile in Har Dov (also known as Shebaa Farms), an area under Israeli control that borders on Lebanon and Syria, the IDF said.
In a statement claiming responsibility for the attack, Hezbollah said it resulted in casualties among “enemy ranks.”
Two Israeli soldiers were killed as a result of the attack by the militant group, according to a statement released by the Israeli military. The statement also said that seven soldiers were wounded.
The official announcement of the casualties was delayed for several hours so that the families of the victims could be notified.
The Hezbollah statement says the attack was carried out by a group calling itself the “heroic martyrs of Quneitra.” Quneitra is a district in the Golan Heights. The name of the group suggests the attack was in retaliation for the January 18 airstrike by Israel on the Golan Heights, which killed six Lebanese Hezbollah fighters along with a senior Iranian general.
No soldiers were kidnapped in the Lebanon incident, the IDF said.
"The rumor of abduction has been ruled out," Reuters cited Lieutenant-Colonel Peter Lerner, an Israeli military spokesman, who was commenting on Lebanese media reports of a soldier having been kidnapped.
Israel responded to the attack on the IDF vehicle by firing 25 artillery shells into Lebanon, according to Lebanese security officials cited by Naharnet.
Mortar bombs launched from Lebanon then hit an Israeli military position in the Golan Heights, Reuters reported citing the IDF
"One peacekeeper was killed,” Reuters cited Andrea Tenenti, spokesman for UNIFIL, as saying. “We are looking into the circumstances of this tragic incident."
The Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Garcia Margallo received a call from Israel’s ambassador expressing his condolences and apologies for the death of the solider, Sputnik reports. 36-year-old Corporal Francisco Javier Soria Toledo was killed this morning during the clashes, according Spain’s Defense Department.
El Pais, however, cites military sources saying that Soria was killed by Israeli mortar fired in retaliation for a prior attack by Hezbollah.
Residents in the Israel-controlled area have been instructed to stay indoors.
“All residents are asked to return to their homes and to close all doors and windows until further notice,” the IDF’s Home Front Command said in a text message, cited by the Times of Israel.
Airports in Chaifa and Rosh Pina have been closed, as well as roads along the borders with Lebanon and Syria. The IDF is holding an emergency meeting on the incident, Israeli media report.
Lebanese schools in the villages near the border with Israel are being evacuated, according to Al-Arabiya.
Meanwhile, Lebanon’s Prime Minister Tammam Salam has reiterated his commitment to the UN Security Council resolution that ended the 2006 Israel-Hezbollah War.
Several hours earlier, Israeli jets struck several targets in Syria in response to Hezbollah rocket fire into the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.

Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman has blamed Hezbollah for the death of a Spanish UN peacekeeper killed in retaliatory Israeli mortar fire in southern Lebanon on Wednesday.
After a series of cross-border strikes that left two IDF soldiers and a Spanish peacekeeper from the UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) dead on Wednesday, Lieberman called Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Garcia Margallo to express his condolences.
He also claimed that the Lebanese government was responsible for any attacks that come from its territory.
Lieberman called on Israel to respond to the attack in a “forceful and disproportionate manner.”
Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also warned that Israel could retaliate harshly.
“To those who are challenging us in the north, I suggest you look at what happened in the Gaza Strip,” he said.
Netanyahu said that those “behind the attack today will pay the full price,” as he began talks with security chiefs about a possible response to the assault.
According to a UN spokesperson, the UNIFIL solider, Corporal Francisco Javier Soria Toledo, one of more than 10,000 UN soldiers stationed in Lebanon, was killed during an Israeli counterattack on Hezbollah. His death is currently under investigation.
The 36-year-old soldier from Malaga was near the village of Ghayar along the UN Blue Line border area between Israel and Lebanon when he was hit by Israeli mortar responding to prior attacks by Hezbollah, reports El Pais.
On Wednesday morning IDF troops were struck by an anti-tank missile in Shebaa Farms, an area in southern Lebanon under Israeli control. Hezbollah released a statement taking responsibility for the attacks.
The Israeli ambassador to Spain, Alon Bar, also called Garcia to express his condolences and apologies for the death of Soria, Sputnik news agency reported.
Israel told the UN that it was prepared to take all necessary measures to defend itself.
"Israel will not stand by as Hezbollah targets Israelis," Israeli UN Ambassador Ron Prosor said in a letter to the Security Council and Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon. "Israel will not accept any attacks on its territory and it will exercise its right to self-defense and take all necessary measures to protect its population.”
"I urge the Security Council to unequivocally and publicly condemn Hezbollah," Prosor said. "The terrorist organization must be disarmed and the government of Lebanon must abide by its international commitments and fully implement Security Council resolution 1701."
Meanwhile, Lebanese Foreign Minister Tammam Salam tried to distance the Lebanese government from the attack, reiterating Lebanon’s commitment to the UN resolution, which put an end to the 2006 Israel-Lebanon War.
Jordan Denies Reports on Release of Iraqi Suicide Bomber Requested by IS
BEIRUT, January 28 (Sputnik) – Jordan's foreign minister dismissed Wednesday's reports that a failed Iraqi suicide bomber, Sajida Rishawi, whose release was demanded by the Islamic State (IS) jihadist group, had been already discharged from custody.
"Who said that Sajida has been released and left Jordan? These claims are not true… As we said earlier, she will be released only following the release of our son Muath," Nasser Judeh tweeted, denying media reports that Rishawi had already arrived in Iraq.
On Tuesday, IS published a video where a man, claiming to be Japanese captive Kenji Goto, said Jordan had 24 hours to free the Iraqi prisoner, otherwise both he and the Jordanian pilot would die.
Rishawi is believed to have been involved in the November 2005 terrorist attack in Amman, Jordan, in which at least 60 people were killed.
Islamic State operative confesses to receiving funding through US - report
A man believed to be a Pakistani commander of Islamic State or Daish, Yousaf al Salafi, has confessed to law enforcement agencies in Pakistan to getting funds via the United States, according to a leading Pakistani newspaper siting its sources.
Al Salafi and two companions were arrested in Lahore, Pakistan on January 22, according to AFP.
“During investigations, Yousaf al Salafi revealed that he was getting funding – routed through America – to run the organization in Pakistan and recruit young people to fight in Syria,” a source close to the investigations revealed toUrdu-language Daily Express on condition of anonymity, according to its sister English newspaper The Express Tribune. The newspaper also claimed that Al Salafi was in fact arrested last year sometime in December.
Al Salafi also allegedly confessed to recruiting jihadists to send them to Syria and was receiving about $600 per person. He also admitted that he had been working with a Pakistani accomplice, who was reportedly the Imam of a mosque.
“The US has been condemning the IS activities but unfortunately has not been able to stop funding of these organizations, which is being routed through the US. The US had to dispel the impression that it is financing the group for its own interests and that is why it launched offensive against the organization in Iraq but not in Syria,” a source said.
However, it was not made clear where exactly the funds came from within the US.
“Yes that is true as this issue was raised several times in the local media and even in the diplomatic corridors between US and Pakistan and there was media reporters here suggesting that hundreds of recruits have been exported to strain from Pakistan," a security source in Pakistan told Sputnik news agency.
The sources who spoke to the Express Tribune also revealed that the awkward revelations had been revealed to US Secretary of State John Kerry on his recent trip to Islamabad.
“The matter was also taken up with CENTCOM [US Central Command] chief, General Lloyd Austin, during his visit to Islamabad earlier this month,” a source said.
A source told Reuters last week that Al-Salafi is a Pakistani-Syrian who came to Pakistan via Turkey five months ago and that he had established an ISIS group in Pakistan.
In recent months, Pakistani media has been discussing the amount of influence Islamic State has in Pakistan, and have cited several incidents in the cities of Lahore and Multan where Islamic State flags and graffiti have been seen. However Pakistani authorities have indicated that local militants would oppose Islamic State, according to IHS Jane’s defense review.
In response to large-scale advances made by ISIS militants in June 2014 in both Iraq and Syria, the US and other coalition countries began a large-scale air campaign over the region. The US and the UK have sent non-operation soldiers to Iraq, as well as special forces.
According to Pentagon documents seen by the Associated Press on Tuesday, President Obama will ask for a $38 billion increase for the core budget of the Defense Department. Of this $5.3 billion will go towards training and equipping the Iraqi armed forces and the moderate opposition in Syria in the ongoing fight against Islamic State.

PACE Deprives Russia of Voting Rights Until April, Russia Quits for 1 Year
STRASBOURG, January 28 (Sputnik) — The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) adopted on Wednesday a resolution depriving the Russian delegation of its voting rights in the organization until at least the April session.
The resolution stresses that the revision of the decision and other sanctions against Russia could be held during opening meetings of the April session if Moscow demonstrates substantial progress in meeting the PACE demands over Russia's alleged role in the Ukrainian crisis, including the protection of rights of the Crimean Tartars.
In response to the PACE’s decision, the head of the Russian delegation Alexei Pushkov said that Russia is suspending its work in PACE until the end of the year.
Raul Castro Urges US to Return Guantanamo Bay for Restoration of Relations
MEXICO CITY, January 28 (Sputnik) – Cuban President Raul Castro has urged the United States Wednesday to return the territories of the Guantanamo Bay that belong to Cuba and lift the trade embargo in order to improve the bilateral relations between the two countries.
"The restoration of bilateral relations will not be possible, as long as the embargo exists and the Cuban territories in Guantanamo Bay have not been returned," Castro was quoted as saying by the Venezuelan network TeleSur.
The Guantanamo Bay detention camp in Cuba was established in 2002, following the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States.
In December 2014, US President Barack Obama announced that he was intending to normalize relations with Cuba by easing travel and trade restrictions and reopening a US embassy in Havana.
On Tuesday, former Cuban leader Fidel Castro expressed his distrust toward the United States in relation to the US initiative to normalize relations.
Since 1961, the United States has held an embargo against Cuba, which was originally put in place as a result of the 20th century Cold War antagonism between Washington and the Communist government in Havana.

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy of phototherapy with a newly-developed 1450-nm diode laser in patients with mild to moderate acne. An open study was performed in acne patients who were treated up to five times with a two week interval. Acne lesions were reduced by 63%. Only one patient discontinued treatment due to vesicle formation as an adverse effect. Phototherapy using this diode laser source was effective and well tolerated in acne patients, suggesting that this phototherapy may be a new modality for the treatment of acne.
Keywords: acne vulgaris, phototherapy, 1450-nm diode laser, sebaceous gland

LOVING, TIRED MAMAS, I HEAR YOU.
To the mother on the brink of insanity,
To the mother who just wants some sleep,
To the mother who feels her home might explode into chaos if she doesn’t hold it together,
I hear you.
To the mother who has a love hate relationship with every children’s cartoon created,
To the mother that cannot focus on the unending stream of words coming out of her child’s mouth because of the checklist of tasks in her head,
To the mother who loves her children, but would really like a day (or two) without them,
I hear you.
To the mother whose heart feels so full it could burst when she sees her child’s smile glimmering in the sun,
To the mother who feels the world stop for a moment as she kisses her sleeping child,
To the mother who wonders if it will ever end but still wishes that it won’t,
I hear you.
My friend’s face bore exhaustion and tears as she shared her life with me. She does the laundry, the dishes, the baths, the diapers, the cooking, the lunches….. She is a stay at home mama, and she is tired.
My heart was breaking for her because I could feel it.
I had been exactly where she is. My list of tasks was slightly different, but the emotions were the same: laundry, dishes, diapers, grading, planning, meetings, exhaustion, pressure….. I am a working mama, and I am tired……but not the way I used to be.
There was a point in which the stresses that come with motherhood overwhelmed me. I was frustrated and wiped out on a regular basis. How could this thing that filled me with so much love and joy also cause me to feel so utterly and completely lost in it? This is the great mystery of motherhood.
The burden of motherhood has become much lighter in my life for three reasons:
1. My kids got older and more independent.
This is something we cannot control, so I simply give a word of encouragement: hang in there; it gets easier.
2. I communicated about my emotions and needs.
In one of my previous posts I said, “There is something healing in the sharing. We need to let people into our lives because shared experience is a mathematical phenomenon: the weight of grief is divided and the celebration of joy is multiplied. Life was meant to be lived together.”
If you have a partner you share the parenting role with, I encourage you to express your joys and struggles of parenting with one another. If you find it difficult to do this without blaming and bitterness toward one another, seek counsel on how to do this. It is worth it.
If you are alone in your parenting, find other parents to share with. Sometimes you just need someone to hear you. It isn’t always that you need someone to fix things, simply being understood can work wonders.
3. I changed my perspective.
After some personal counseling, I learned a lot about the pressure I was putting on myself. I was asked, “What would happen if the dishes were left in the sink?” It sounds silly now, but I honestly had a hard time coming to terms with the idea of leaving some things undone.
Don’t get me wrong, I still feel a miraculous peace inside when everything is exactly where it belongs and there is a clean glow about the house. However, I have learned to release some of the internal pressure when the home isn’t that way. I began to understand that our home doesn’t have to be perfect; I just want it that way. From there, I learned that I want to feel happy and content and be present with my children more than I want a clean house.
Do I still find myself overwhelmed at times? Yes.
Am I embarrassed when people come into my home and it isn’t perfect? Yes.
Am I happier and more at peace now than I ever was before? Yes.
I am living my life openly and honestly, and I am accepting the flaws while giving others the opportunity to do the same.
I hear you, tired, loving mamas. I hear you.
4 thoughts on “LOVING, TIRED MAMAS, I HEAR YOU.”
Aww! I truly belong to that category of tired moms!!! And that’s really assuring that it would get better once they grow up!!
Bilna, I was going to tell you that I am glad you can relate to the tired moms article, but then I realized it would sound like I’m glad you are tired. LOL…..
I am happy, though, that you can see how you are not alone in this feeling!
The days are long, but the years are short. It gets easier.
I am not your mom, but I feel really proud of you and the things you are saying and the help you are giving to others. You have a gift for honesty and also finding the positive that is such a help. Way to go Rebecca. By the way, why did the rule about 2 spaces after a period change? Have any idea? It’s not like we are doing anything else in that wasted space.
Thank you, Nancy. Your kind words mean a lot to me. Also, I did a little research for you, and I found a fun article about your spacing question. http://www.cultofpedagogy.com/two-spaces-after-period/

Electron-impact fine-structure excitation of Fe II at low temperature.
WAN Y., FAVREAU C., LOCH S.D., McLAUGHLIN B.M., QI Y. and STANCIL P.C.
Abstract (from CDS):
Fe II emission lines are observed from nearly all classes of astronomical objects over a wide spectral range from the infrared to the ultraviolet. To meaningfully interpret these lines, reliable atomic data are necessary. In the work presented here we focused on low-lying fine-structure transitions, within the ground term, due to electron impact. We provide effective collision strengths together with estimated uncertainties as functions of temperature of astrophysical importance (10-100 000 K). Due to the importance of fine-structure transitions within the ground term, the focus of this work is on obtaining accurate rate coefficients at the lower end of this temperature range, for applications in low-temperature environments such as the interstellar medium. We performed three different flavours of scattering calculations: (i) an intermediate coupling frame transformation (ICFT) R-matrix method, (ii) a Breit-Pauli R-matrix (BPRM) method, and (iii) a Dirac Atomic R-matrix Code (DARC). The ICFT and BPRM calculations involved three different AUTOSTRUCTURE target models each. The DARC calculation was based on a reliable 20 configuration, 6069 level atomic structure model. Good agreement was found with our BPRM and DARC collision results compared to previous R-matrix calculations. We present a set of recommended effective collision strengths for the low-lying forbidden transitions together with associated uncertainty estimates.

What a group of NASA scientists have proposed is a steampunk-like spacecraft that weighs nearly nothing and would float in the Venusian atmosphere. This High Altitude Venus Operational Concept (HAVOC) would allow astronauts to study the planet at an unprecedented level, in less time than it would take to complete a crewed mission to Mars.
Despite its alluring mythological name, Venus could have come right out of a sci-fi horror movie with its sulfuric clouds and a surface searing enough to melt lead (that’s 864 degrees Fahrenheit) covered in volcanoes, bubbling lava plains, craters and mountains. It seems like one of the most forbidding places anyone could possibly think of studying up close. No wonder it’s a dumping ground on The Expanse.
What the team of scientists who dreamed up HAVOC argue is that Venus is even more accessible than Mars. With a size and mass that almost mirror Earth’s, it can tell us what to expect when searching for life on other worlds that are similar to our planet. Venus is thought to have once had surface oceans teeming with life.
"The atmosphere of Venus is one of the more hospitable locations in space,” NASA Langley mission analyst and HAVOC team leader Chris Jones told NBC Mach.
HAVOC will hover above the sulfur clouds at about 30 miles above the surface, where the atmospheric pressure is comparable to Earth’s and temperatures are a much cooler 170 degrees Fahrenheit and the spacecraft can benefit from incoming solar energy. The NASA engineers believe it could evolve into an aerial colony in the future. That’s right, humans could someday be living in the atmosphere of Venus.
Pulling off this endeavor would require a double launch—one spacecraft carrying the crew, and a robotic cargo ship with a 100-foot-long capsule containing the folded airship, blasted off on NASA’s powerful upcoming Space Launch System (SLS).
When both spacecraft reached Venus’ orbit, the crew would transfer to the cargo capsule, which would then plummet at 16,000 mph, with atmospheric friction and a supersonic parachute slowing its descent to 90 mph until it reached the Venusian atmosphere. The capsule would then shed its outer shell and inflate to something the size of three Boeing 747s. The hundred-day journey would take around half the time it would to land on Mars.
Some technological advancement needs to happen before we get to Venus. Among the tech aspects of this mission that still need to be figured out are how to keep the spacecraft and its solar panels from corroding in that atmospheric sulfuric acid, never mind successfully inserting and inflating the airship on arrival at Venus and performing aerocapture maneuvers on Venus and Earth.
“It opens up a strange, exciting, and even slightly terrifying way to live,” said Jones. "It would be a challenging environment, but one that would bring opportunities we can't even imagine."

My headline may sound either confusing or redundant; it's not.
Rabble In Arms is a classic novel, not about the Classical Age, but about the American Revolution. It comes out of that great period of American historical fiction - the 1930's and 40's - when such works were seriously researched and seriously intended.
The great thing about Rabble In Arms is that it is also a story well-told. There are Machiavellian plots and sub-plots, action sequences galore (several full-scale battles, by land and lake), full-blown romance(s) and plenty of humor, some of it wonderfully cantankerous.
The book is the second in Robert's series about the people of Arundel, in Maine (a real town; it's now called Kennebunkport) and how they lived through the formative years of the United States of America. Although it's not absolutely necessary - Rabble In Arms - stands well enough on its own - it would be good to read the first in the series, which is simply titled Arundel...first.
If you are interested in the American Revolution and you haven't read this book...you should do so as soon as possible. It contains a lot of things you need to know, and you can have a great time learning them.

Manchester United defender Lisandro Martinez is on the radar of Real Madrid despite only moving to Old Trafford in the summer.
Martinez signed for Manchester United from Dutch club Ajax during the summer transfer window. Erik ten Hag raided his former club to bring in a defender who he trusts, and the Argentine has had an impressive start to life at Old Trafford.
So much so that Martinez is already attracting interest from another club, with Defensa Central claiming Real Madrid are considering making a move for the Manchester United defender.
The chances of convincing Manchester United to part ways with Martinez after only signing during the summer transfer window seem pretty slim, but playing for Real Madrid is often too big of an attraction to turn down for players.
It’s not much of a surprise to see Martinez already linked with a move to the Spanish giants after the way he has started the season. Martinez is the ideal mix of tough, tackling defender and comfortable on the ball.

Painful, swollen legs with bulging “varicose” veins can be treated by several methods. In the past, vein ligation and vein stripping have been the standard. However, Vein Ligation has a high recurrence rate and Vein Stripping is an extremely painful procedure, often requiring an inpatient hospital stay, bed confinement for days, and long recovery.
Varicose veins can cause a variety of symptoms: Leg swelling, aching and pain, tiredness, skin changes, and even skin ulceration (venous stasis ulcers). These issues can lead to severe problems in the quality of life and activities of daily living, and in worst cases, severe infections which may threaten the viability or function of the leg.
Nonsurgical, EndoVenous Laser Treatment (EVLT) of Symptomatic Varicose Veins has become the treatment of choice with high success rates (> 95%), can be performed as an in-office procedure under local anesthesia, and patients walk out of the office immediately afterward. It is an extremely gratifying procedure.
As a Plastic Surgeon with expertise in Microvascular Surgery, Dr. Lee offers the highest level of technical precision to this safe, effective, treatment of Varicose Veins. Most often, these treatments are covered by Insurance.

LONDON, Nov. 18 (Xinhua) -- Chinese Ambassador to Britain Liu Xiaoming said Monday that the Chinese government remains determined in its opposition to any external forces' interference in Hong Kong affairs, urging those external forces to immediately stop interfering in Hong Kong affairs and China's internal affairs.
Speaking at a press conference held at the Chinese embassy in London, Liu noted that Chinese President Xi Jinping made clear the Chinese government's solemn position on the situation in Hong Kong recently during the 11th BRICS summit in Brazil.
Hong Kong's top priority is to end violence and restore order, and the Chinese government will continue to firmly support the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) government under the leadership of the chief executive in governing Hong Kong in accordance with law, firmly support Hong Kong police in strict and rigorous enforcement of the law, and firmly support the judicial institutions of Hong Kong in bringing violent offenders to justice in accordance with law, Liu said.
The ambassador said the current situation in Hong Kong demonstrates that the nature of the issue is that extreme violent offenders have disrupted law and order in Hong Kong, and attempted to destabilize Hong Kong and undermine the practice of the "one country, two systems" policy.
Their activities are extreme, violent and illegal, Liu noted.
The ambassador said external forces that have indulged in and fanned violence in Hong Kong cannot absolve themselves of the responsibility for the recent escalation of violence in Hong Kong, adding that some Western countries have publicly supported the extreme violent offenders.
"We would like to tell these external forces solemnly that the Chinese government remains unwavering in its resolve to oppose any external interference in Hong Kong affairs. We urge these forces to immediately stop any form of interference in Hong Kong affairs and China's internal affairs, and immediately stop condoning violent offences. Otherwise, they would lift the stone only to drop it on their own feet," Liu said.
A prosperous and stable Hong Kong under "one country, two systems" is in the interests of both China and the world, including Britain, said the ambassador.
There are 300,000 British citizens and more than 700 British companies in Hong Kong. Continued chaos in Hong Kong will bring nothing but harm to Britain, he noted.
The ambassador urged the British side to support the Hong Kong SAR government in ending violence, restoring order and upholding the rule of law, resist and oppose any remarks or actions that interfere in Hong Kong affairs, and do more things that are conducive to the prosperity and stability in Hong Kong, so that chaos will end as soon as possible.

Workshop on Innovative Aerial Services – Operations and Infrastructure
12-13 September 2023
Under the new EU-Japan Aviation Partnership Project (APP), the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and the Japan Civil Aviation Bureau (JCAB) organised a workshop on the design of infrastructure (vertiports) for and operations of innovative aerial systems. It was the second in a series of activities in this domain, and took place in Tokyo from 12-13 September. Apart from sessions dedicated to the exchange between the two authorities, part of the programme involved the contribution of industry stakeholders to the discussion.
On the first day, JCAB and EASA each presented their latest regulations and ongoing rulemaking activities in the domain. On the second day, the discussion between both authorities went deeper into the respective vertiport design regulations. This was followed by a presentation covering the general state of play of Urban Air Mobility (UAM) in Europe. Finally, industry perspectives on the subject were contributed by Volocopter, SkyDrive, UrbanV, and ORIX.
EASA and JCAB will continue the exchanging on innovative aerial systems and the different aspects involved. Workshops to facilitate these are expected to take place in the first quarter of next year.

It is similar to a transistor and has the operation like LED but the output beam has the characteristics of laser light. The material which often used in semiconductor laser is the gallium Arsenide, therefore semiconductor laser is sometimes known as Gallium Arsenide Laser The semiconductor laser was invented by Basov et al. in 1961, and is rapidly becoming one of the most widely used laser systems.

Semiconductor or diode lasers, typically about the size of a grain of salt, are the smallest lasers yet devised. They consist of a p-n junction formed in an elongated gain region, typically in a gallium-arsenide crystal, with parallel faces at the ends to serve as partially reflecting mirrors Semiconductor lasers are solid-state lasers based on semiconductor gain media, where optical gain is usually achieved by stimulated emission at an interband transition under conditions of a high carrier density in the conduction band In semiconductor laser theory, the optical gain is produced in a semiconductor material. The choice of material depends on the desired wavelength and properties such as modulation speed. It may be a bulk semiconductor, but more often a quantum heterostructure. Pumping may be electrically or optically (disk laser)
Following are the drawbacks or disadvantages of Semiconductor Laser: This laser is not suited for many applications due to its low power production. The temperature affects its output. The output beam profile has unusual shape due to lasing medium's too short size and rectangular shape A laser diode, (LD), injection laser diode (ILD), or diode laser is a semiconductor device similar to a light-emitting diode in which a diode pumped directly with electrical current can create lasing conditions at the diode's junction. Laser diodes can directly convert electrical energy into light Un diodo laser (o LD, da Laser Diode in inglese) è un dispositivo optoelettronico in grado di emettere un fascio laser emesso dalla regione attiva del semiconduttore con cui viene realizzato il dispositivo stesso. La struttura del semiconduttore è molto simile a quella impiegata nella realizzazione di LED (Light Emitting Diode)
. Hall and, largely because they're so compact and inexpensive, are now the most widespread lasers in the world. Let's take a closer look Figure shows the basic construction of semiconductor laser. The active medium is a p-n junction diode made from the single crystal of gallium arsenide. This crystal is cut in the form of a platter having thickness of 0.5μmm. The platelet consists of two parts having an electron conductivity (n-type) and hole conductivity (p-type) It may be a bulk semiconductor, but more often a quantum heterostructure. Semiconductor lasers are lasers based on semiconductor gain media, where optical gain is usually achieved by stimulated emission at an interband transition under conditions of a high carrier density in the conduction band.

In contrast to other kinds of lasers, semiconductor lasers make use of radiative quantum transitions between the allowed energy bands of a crystal rather than between discrete energy levels of atoms, molecules, and ions

March is the best month for giving up on New Year’s resolutions. Some of us quit sooner, but this is the month most people drop the pretense of meeting goals made in the heady days between Christmas and New Year’s.
As writers, we have additional challenges with meeting our yearly goals. Writerly pursuits present all sorts of obstacles under the best of conditions. In addition to typical self-improvement goals, writers create a whole list of goals related to their craft. Maybe this year you challenged yourself to finally finish that stubborn book series. Maybe you planned to publish more books this trip around the sun. You might have created a steep daily wordcount for yourself. But even with your best efforts in January and February, you have found yourself impossibly behind in March.
Even though this is the prime quitting month for resolutions both big and small, I’d like to take a moment to make the argument for restarting instead.
It’s Not That You Haven’t Tried
People don’t quit in March because it’s the first time they have failed. By this point, a well-meaning writer or a hardworking dieter has fallen short and restarted many times. They have already fallen off pace and caught back up. Now, as March rolls by, they have fallen really far behind and are despaired at ever catching up again.
It might be hard to convince yourself to start over at this point, but it might be worth it, if you can set up the right “restart” mindset.
The Scope of Your Goals May Be Too Big, But That’s Okay
We tend to be really bold before we start. We want our goals to be impressive. If you dream really small, you run the risk of someone looking down their nose at your tiny little goals. So, we go big!
Our goals should be for us and not other people. It’s good to have accountability. A group of writers all going after their goals together can be motivating, to an extent. I share my yearly writing goals with the Mando Method Podcast. I follow along with the hosts and other listeners as they strive to reach theirs. Still, success is unique to the individual, so might as well make our goals realistic.
Even if you overreached, it doesn’t mean you have to give up. Think of your progress as just that: progress. Imagine a progress bar charging up, one that may eventually reach 100%, rather than looking at it like a final grade. In baseball, a 30 to 40% batting average is considered solid. In American public schools, a grade of 70% is often barely passing. The perspective defines the failure, and that’s what so often leads to quitting in March.
A Couple Early Successes Before Bogging Down
Another common pattern for writers and their resolutions is to achieve a few quick successes early on then fizzle out. You start off strong and check a few hard-fought items off your list, but you lack the stamina for the long haul and steeper goals.
Recognizing this, you need to reset your pace so that the loftier goals on your list can be tackled going forward.
Small Failures vs Quitting
Wordcount goals in particular can be brutal. I’m not a fan of them, but I do use them to a certain extent. There aren’t many other effective ways to mark writing progress. Daily or weekly wordcount goals lend themselves to occasional shortfalls. If each of these represent failures in your mind, no wonder you feel like quitting in March.
A daily shortfall or a partial success in a particular week is not the same as quitting on your goals, though. You’re still making progress. These small failures only become a real failure the moment you quit. Until then, they are just steps along a journey to an ultimate goal.
March is a Better Time to Start Anyway
It’s weird that we make our goals in a time period so unlike the rest of the year. December is a bizarre month, even if you are working your “normal” schedule. We make resolutions during this odd period that require follow-through when life goes back to normal, or as in recent years, a "new" normal.
No matter how your year has gone, March might be a better time to make goals. Many of the year's new challenges have already revealed themselves at this point. From there, you have a more realistic view of what it will take to reach a scheduled goal than you did on January 1st. So, if you are having to restart your efforts, now is a great time to do that.
A more realistic way to approach New Year’s resolutions would be to set preliminary goals at the start of the year. Use January and February as a trial period. Once you have proper data, you then revaluate the goals, adjust them, maybe drop one, pick up another, change your strategies, and set your real goals for the remaining ten months.
I tend to set health and fitness goals most years. This year, I had a heart attack on January 12th. I entered cardiac rehab, so my exercise plan involves wearing a heart monitor while working out in a hospital 3 days a week. 3 out of every 4 people experience depression after a cardiac episode. 1 in 5 are susceptible to long-term depression following these events. I'm showing signs of being in that category. None of these factors were involved in my goal setting at the start of the year. It doesn't mean I have to abandon all my goals, but it does mean my health and fitness goals have shifted. It's better for me to address and embrace that shift based on the new data about my personal challenges instead of just declaring the original goal a failure.
The Finish Line Feels Far Away
No matter how big or small your goals are, the path to complete them stretches out ahead of you. During the early days it often feels like you’re going through the motions with only the smallest progress to show for all your hard work. The finish line is still so far away that you can’t even see it. This is the time when you need to put your head down and focus on smaller tasks that will lead you step by step to where you are going. Looking at the whole journey at this stage makes it seem impossible, making quitting feel like the only reasonable choice you have.
The Goal Isn’t Really the Goal
This may seem counter-intuitive, but the goal itself isn’t really the point. People often ask, “What’s the point of making a goal if you’re never going to reach it?” Well, typically the long-term reward is creating habits that make it easier for you to hold onto the progress you achieve. The number of times you reach your wordcount goal isn’t as significant as the habit of daily writing. The act of publishing a novel isn’t as significant as proving to yourself that you can write one. Losing the weight is important, but maintaining the habits that keep you from putting it back on is better. Running the 5k or the half marathon is a good achievement, but it was all the days, weeks, and months of exercise and training leading up to that singular event that carry the long-term benefit. Falling short of your goal of reading 50 books might leave you feeling low, but the fact that you read 35 books added something to your life you wouldn’t have gotten if you’d never pursued the goal in the first place.
Starting Again Again
March is a great month for quitting. Everyone does it. It’s an even better month for starting again… again. I know by this point you’ve already fallen short, caught up, fallen short again, and now you’re impossibly behind. Quitting feels like the safest choice emotionally. You’ve probably done this with resolutions many times before, so you’re used to it. This year doesn’t have to be the same though.
Reset your goals so that today is the starting point. Scale them back to something more realistic to where you are now. Is that cheating? Who says so? No one that matters to your personal growth. You can also keep the goals you have, but reset your approach so that past failures and restarts remain in the past. If it’s the progress and practice that really count, then as long as you don’t quit now, you haven’t truly failed.

Class of 2023 penpal event with DBHS
Walnut High School and Diamond Bar High School are collaborating to set up penpals for class of 2023.
Class cabinet released a Google Form on March 8 for students that are interested in meeting new people. The application is a Google Form that asks for contact information, interests, what the person is like and what they feel like they need. The Google Forms will close on March 16 and class officers from both schools will take the time to pair each student with someone based on their preferences. Once the students are matched, the students will contact and get to know each other.
“The penpals with Diamond Bar is a way for the class of 2023 from both schools to meet someone new and make a new friend during quarantine. We came up with this idea because it’s a fun way to make quarantine feel less lonely and it connects the two student bodies, despite being rival schools,” class secretary sophomore Zachary Labugen said. “By doing this, we hope the students who sign up will make new friends, and we also hope to make their quarantine feel less lonely.”
Based on a recent survey from the Associated Student Body (ASB), many students are under pressure because of grades, family life and other factors. After reviewing the survey, school psychologist, Tara Lizarraga, brought up the issue about how the class of 2023 is under a lot of stress. In response to the issue, the class of 2023 officers came up with an idea to bring some normalcy back into the student’s lives.
“The idea came when our officers were talking about ways we could help our class socialize during a time they can’t physically be in contact with each other. We hope that they can meet someone that they genuinely take an interest in and that that feeling is reciprocated,” class president sophomore Alex Santiago said. “It’s really up to them for the extent they take their relationship to, and whether that means they only talk for the remainder of virtual learning or they eventually meet up in person we’d really just like to see a connection made with a person that they can talk to and share their feelings for at least while we continue with the pandemic.”

WASHINGTON – House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa, R-Calif., today released new HealthCare.gov meeting notes stating that as of 10/2/2013, there were “248 enrollments.” According to meeting notes from the day before, “6 enrollments have occurred so far with 5 different issuers.”
The numbers come from notes taken during “War Room” meetings at the Center for Consumer Information and Insurance (CCIIO), part of the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) tasked with implementing ObamaCare. The meetings were comprised of Administration officials and contractors discussing the standing issues and problems with the disastrous launch of HealthCare.gov.
The first set of notes, taken the morning of October 2nd, states, “6 enrollments have occurred so far with 5 different issuers… Issuers include BCBS NC, BCBS Kansas City, and CareSource. Healthcare Service Corporation had the 2 enrollments.”
At the next meeting held the afternoon of October 2nd, the notes add that “[a]pproximately 100 enrollments have happened as of this meeting.”
At the morning meeting held October 3rd, the notes say that “[as] of yesterday, there were 248 enrollments.”
The Administration so far has not provided any official number of individuals who successfully enrolled in insurance plans through HealthCare.gov. The documents released today were produced in response to a Committee request sent to 11 of the top contractors involved in the HealthCare.gov roll out. Chairman Issa also today subpoenaed HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius for documents related to HealthCare.gov, including the number of attempted and completed enrollments.

CLARKSBURG, W.Va. — It’s estimated that about 12 percent of drivers in the state still fail to buckle up when they’re operating a motor vehicle.
Those who do not fasten their seat belts are subject to citations from police, said Lisa Hall, the Region 5 coordinator for the Governor’s Highway Safety Program. She said most local law enforcement agencies work with the Click-It-or-Ticket program to ensure that drivers and passengers are buckled up. The regional office encompasses Monongalia, Marion, Harrison, Lewis, Preston, Taylor and Barbour counties.
“There are programs for Governor’s Highway Safety that cover the entire state,” Hall said.
Program studies show that West Virginians were buckling up in 2007 and 2008 when the usage rate was its highest at 89 percent, a press release said. However, that rate was on the decline until 2014 when it climbed back up to 87.8 percent, still slightly below those earlier marks.
While most state residents are indeed buckling up, there are still 12.2 percent who remain at risk by not using seat belts…
