My readings are experiences of discovery and growth for those seeking counsel. Like everyone, I was born with intuitive instincts. Over the years, I have studied and worked to enhance my mystical heritage. I've been a professional Tarot card reader for many years, using my insight to guide others on their own unique journeys. However, I did not expect my life journey to be so fraught with unexpected challenges. I began my voyage of discovery as a young person, following the path as it was opened to me. Along the way, I embraced it one step at a time. My readings will answer your questions helping you to sense the path before you.
I'm available for small & large groups and private readings serving Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland and Delaware. I Live in the Philadelphia suburbs, and currently work with most local event planners & several Atlantic City casinos.
I find Bethany's abilities to be real and helpful. With her warm and caring personality, she offered me valuable input that matched my personal circumstances surprisingly well. I have benefited from the insights gained in each of her readings and recommend her highly. Bethany has a rare gift and I thank her.
Bethany was right on target with all aspects of my life. Such a friendly lady who made me feel very comfortable. looking forward to see what happens! and looking forward to seeing her again!
I had my first reading with Bethany today. I am going through personal struggles and as soon as she greeted me at the door, I felt a sense of calmness that I haven't felt for the past 2 weeks. Unlike other psychics, she asked that I hold my questions until the end. She was able to tell me what was going on in my life as I sat quietly in the chair. Her ability is amazing. I feel a weight has been lifted off me. Cannot say Thank You enough.
I first saw Bethany at an event some months ago and her accuracy was amazing. I just had a full reading 11/1 and several items in the reading have already occurred. Bethany is a very warm and caring person and I've encouraged my sister to schedule a reading with her. I can't wait to see her again!
I had a reading from Bethany on 9/24. It was amazing! She touched on my life like she knew all about where I am at and I never met her. She mentioned me being stuck-I am; about my dad-check; about relationships-check; plus other stuff!!! If she had mentioned somebody by name, I would have been floored. I was hoping for that, though. It was very helpful and provided some guidance. I look forward to the next meeting. Go, if you are in need of some guidance.
I saw Bethany for a reading about 3 months ago. I wanted to wait to see if a lot of what she said came true. She is definitely one of the nicest psychics I have ever met, she makes you feel at home and at ease. She was spot on when it came to describing me, my strengths and weaknesses and challenges in life. Everything she said made absolute sense. I am glad I have found her as a new psychic that I can trust. I will be reading again with her very soon.
My first reading was about 6 months ago. I wanted to wait and see if any of her predictions came true before writing a review. She pretty much hit the nail on the head in regards to what was happening in my life. She gives fantastic advice and puts you at ease. Her knowledge of tarot cards is fantastic. I highly recommend Bethany, and I will be seeing her again real soon.
I was not sure exactly what to expect, but Bethany really made me feel comfortable and I felt very connected with her. She was spot on with many things she told me, and I feel more positive and optimistic than I have felt in a long time. Thank you, Bethany!
It took me a while to write this review as I had to process the experience. Bethany is warm and kind and there is a sense of calmness when she reads. The things that she said about my family, children and myself were spot on. She said some things to me that I have never even been able to personally express. With tears in my eyes I realized she was truly reading my heart. I walked away excited for what she had told me and also a sense of myself that I never had before. I cant wait to go back!
I've never been to a card reader before, but a friend went and was telling me how accurate Bethany was, so I thought I'd try it. I couldn't believe how many things in my life that came up that were dead on, things that were specific to me. And it was comforting hearing about things that were changing in our lives and the path we were headed was going to be ok. I would recommend Bethany to anyone I know! Not only do I trust that she is good at what she does, but she was so warm and friendly.
I always said I never wanted to see a psychic, but something made me call Bethany. She is truely gifted. She knew my exact thoughts and feelings, and this made me feel really connected with her. I felt like a weight was lifted off my shoulders after seeing her. She is warm and supportive, and helps you see the light in the path she lays out for you. What an incredible experience. If what she predicts for me really comes true, I will be completely blown away. I highly recommend her.
I had my first reading with Bethany today and it was an amazing experience. She was very insightful and on point with everything. I would definitely recommend her to any interested. She was warm and welcoming. She hit the nail on the head from the very first card.
Going next week for my third reading from Bethany in the last year and a half. She has showed me opportunities that exist in the near future in both my business and personal life. If you want a glimps of what could be, schedule a reading, you won't be disappointed. Thank you, Bethany!!
I enjoyed meeting Bethany for the first time. Within minutes of her reading I felt as if I were having a conversation with an old friend. She was right on target with my personality and those of my family. This was a very good reading and I am looking forward to my next one for which I will request a longer appointment.
What can I say?!?!? Bethany was just what I'd hoped she'd be. This was my second reading (first was in Chicago) back in July. The first 2 cards she turned over was spot on and brought me to tears. She continued to tell me everything that was going on in my life. It was a pleasant experience and I will return in the Spring and things shall be different.
Met with Bethany yesterday and loved our reading. She was wonderful. My path is clear. Very accurate and engaging. I found my reading helpful and encouraging. She validated the path I have chosen.
I've never been to any type of psychic or medium. I was extremely skeptical and thought about making the appt. for months. Someone else made my appt. for me. I was very nervous and really didn't know what to expect. I was totally shocked and couldn't believe how spot on Bethany was about everything! I was going to run errands after the reading but went right home. Can't explain the feeling I had but can tell you I cried the rest of the day. I now have closure!100% recommend. Thank you!!!
I went to Bethany for a reading and I found her to insightful. She hit everything on the nail for me. There wasn't anything she said that I did not connect with. I enjoyed speaking with her after the reading as well. She's very pleasant and I recommend you see her if you want some insight to your life. Thank you Bethany!
Bethany is amazing. I was a bit nervous and skeptical when I visited. Her readings were spot on. Bethany was kind, honest and she made me feel at ease. If you need to understand better what is going on in your life, Bethany is the perfect person to help you. Highly recommended.
We were very skeptical about the Reading with Bethany or with any Medium. I signed up for a Reading to include my husband and myself. Bethany was on-point with all her statements. She provided accurate information for me and my husband. There are things she stated which we only knew. My husband is still mystified about the things she said to him. We are planning on getting a Reading for our children soon. We will also be setting up another Reading for both of us.
I was a little nervous as this was my first time and didn't know what to expect, but like everyone says she's a warm person that feels like family. Like the rest of these reviews say, she knows things only you would know but trust me when I say this lady is the real deal. Everything she said was me in a nutshell and even talked about a relative that passed away. It was like hearing words from my aunts mouth! You never get vague answers from Bethany she is very descriptive! Thank you!
How do I start... This Woman is AWESOME! This was my first reading ever, so I was a bit skeptical. Bethany has by far surpassed everything I expected during my session with her. She told me things no one would have ever known, unless I told them myself. I was blown away by all the things she knew about me, even the things I was scared to ever admit. She puts things into perspective. I would 100 percent recommend her to anyone. She makes you feel comfortable and at ease. I can't wait to go back.
Bethany was spot on in her reading; she covered all of my issues and questions before I even said anything! I walked away with a feel good feeling. I will definitely return!
A+++reading from Bethany Sheppard! Her reading was wonderfully accurate and positive without being "wishy-washy" in terms of guidance. What makes Bethany outstanding as a psychic reader, is her positive practical advice on how to make the changes one needs for happiness and contentment. This I believe is going way beyond what one would expect from a mere reading. No wonder Bethany is such a beloved psychic! Thank you Bethany!.
WOW! Bethany is just wonderful! I didn't have to say anything for her to read my troubles, my concerns, the weight I've been carrying on my mind, heart & soul. Things she had absolutely no way of knowing, she could see. The atmosphere was comfortable & she made me feel comfortable. She was just absolutely wonderful and hit things right on target. Gave me some new insight to work toward and I will return to her with out a doubt. I believe in her so much, I referred some friends to her!
Bethany is amazing! She made me feel right at home when I visited on March 25th. She really put my mind at ease, and made me very excited for my future. I cannot wait to schedule my next reading! Highly recommended!!
I waited a full 6 months to post this review to see if things she said came to fruition. I had the most amazing reading with Bethany Sheppard! She said things to me that no one could have possibly known. I left there in awe. What's even better is that everything she predicted for the future has come true-- even down to the timing! I can't wait to go back!
I have been to other psychics and felt as though the things they were saying were generic and could apply to pretty much anybody. I did not feel like that with Bethany at all. Everything that she said was so spot on and it was a very moving experience for me. Bethany makes you feel right at home. I highly recommend that everyone should go see her!!
I had such a positive and transformative experience during my reading with Bethany! Having never been to a psychic before, I had absolutely no idea on what to expect. Bethany was able to provide me with excellent insight into my future which was helpful as I am still in school and deciding on a future career. She validated many truths that I already knew about myself and loved ones. She is truly gifted and I recommend her to anyone seeking to learn further about their abilities and life path!
I went to see Bethany in her (beautiful) quaint home... which happens to be right down the street from my mom! Bethany was a gracious host and her reading for me was amazing! She knew so many things about my past and really showed me that the path I was on was the right one. I am excited to see Bethany again and know that her abilities are beyond those of most! Thank you, Bethany!!
I have seen Bethany several times and her readings are truly amazing and accurate. My last reading was 1215/16 and I told her my daughter was going to have a baby. She started turning cards over and said "It's a boy". That was confirmed on 1/19/17 when my Grandson announced that the baby was indeed a boy. Every reading I have had with Bethany, she has been on target. I definitely recommend her to anyone without hesitation!!
I'm super excited about my reading from Bethany. She talked about the importance of energy and let me tell you this WORKS ! I've been focused on positive energy and I've never felt this way before. I approach everything with this outlook and I find myself super confident in everything I do. Especially with romance. I am 49 years old and I feel like I'm 21. I highly recommend Bethany to get you focused and back on track. The funny thing is I actually very better physically too, POSITIVE!!
Bethany is a lovely person and I trust that she is a legitamate psychic. She told me things about my present life that were specific and accurate, and even offered insights into who I am spiritually that has helped me become more in touch. For example, she told me I draw energy from water. The events she predicted aren't supposed to happen till summer, but I believe they will come true! In addition to the near future, she laid out a prediction for most of my life path.
I LOVE BETHANY!!. she is amazing .. she made made feel AMAZING.... and then the reading began.. she allowed me to record it and she was so on point with everything and she gave me answers of questions I have only asked in my head! I am so looking forward to the upcoming year and whats in store!!! i will be sending many people to her!
I had a wonderful experience with Bethany in December that is still resonating with me today. Her space was as warm and inviting as she was. She knew a lot about me and my family and where i was struggling. I felt empowered and content after my tarot reading. I will definitely be back.
I am very satisfied with the Tarot card reading that I received from Bethany. I gained a renewed sense of peace and clarity. Her insights were quite accurate and helpful, and she offered guidance in a friendly, warm, and understanding manner. I would recommend Bethany to anyone who is seeking an accurate reading from someone who is not only very skilled in her craft but also sincerely committed to using her gift to help others.
Bethany and i met this past week for a reading. she is absolutely amazing. i was mind blown by her names, times, and dates. she told me things no one else would know expect me. she will bring you the closure as well as the truth, so be prepared to hear it! she is truly wonderfull and words cant explain how much i thank her for giving me peace with the past.
I had my first reading with Bethany over the phone this Friday. I was surprised how comfortable I felt with her right away. She knew things that I haven't told anything. I only wish I would have called her earlier, so I wouldn't have lost my wallet. I began recommending her right after my reading & will continue to do so, I can't wait to call her back in a few months!
I recently had my first reading with Bethany over the phone. She immediately put me at ease. Her insights and accuracy were unbelievably helpful to me. She is thorough and compassionate and has a true gift. Anyone who comes into contact with Bethany should consider themselves blessed! She is an intuitive and leader who has the ability to enrich your life with her wonderful insights. I highly recommend Bethany to any person in search of a trustworthy and genuine spiritual guide.
Bethany was amazing! She didn't dig for information, she was telling me stuff that there was no way she could have known! I would highly recommend her and am buying a gift certificate for my best friend today! Really, talk with Bethany. She is truly gifted and a bright and lovely energy in this world. It was a pleasure to have contact with her.
Bethany was one word. Incredible. It was my first reading ever, and she made a believer out of me. She was so warm and inviting, it was almost impossible to not feel comfortable and relaxed around her. She was directly on about many things, and also helped me to open my mind and start to perceive my life in a different way. She gave me so much to look forward to. Bethany truly cares about all those she comes in contact with, and I cannot wait to see her again!
I just had my first reading with Bethany today and she was very kind and pleasant and most importantly, insightful, truthful and accurate. She read me like she knew me and was very accurate in her details with no sugar coating which is so important for me - she is honest and tells you what she sees in an honest and compassionate way. It will be interesting to see how things unfold but I definitely would recommend Bethany to others and will call on her guidance & insight again in the future.
Bethany is outstanding, I have had two readings with her and both times she has made my hair stand on end with her accuracy. The 1st reading she talked about my relationship with my mom and told me some things that only those in the family would be aware of or know. Most recently she told me I would be moving south before it was even confirmed. If you want good guidance from a truly honest and caring person with a true gift look no further make contact with her I am glad I did.
I had a reading last week with Bethany and she was absolutely amazing, she knew my son had died and assured me he was still with me in spirit(she knew some of the crazy things that were occuring). She also knew I was moving from one job to another and the scope of both jobs. She is a very warm and endearing person, if you have an opportunity, contact her, it will be an unforgettable gift to yourself.
When i first met Bethany I was amazed at how comfortable i felt with her. I really felt she was helping guide me through my life. She told me things no one else could know. I had a reading done before with another psychic and was not completely satisfied but after Bethany I wouldn't use anyone else but her. I highly recommend her for anyone who is looking for an amazing psychic and person!
Bethany's reading of me was spot on and I am convinced she has true insight into my personality, relationships, and career. She directly addressed my main concerns and her information and advice brought great comfort to me. I am naturally skeptical until I have proof about such things and when I left I knew I had experienced a truly authentic reading.
I arrived at Bethany's house for my first psychic reading as neither a believer nor as a non-believer. That being said, I was blown away within the first two minutes of the reading. Bethany was able to accurately describe both my personality and my past. Not to mention she was able to give insight into several specific future events. Mark my words, everything Bethany said has come true!
My sister, and I saw Bethanny at the end of August, and it was wonderful. What she saw in the cards was so accurate, it was scary. I have been to other psychics, but nothing compared to Bethanny. She is truly gifted. We've told all our friends and family about her, but seeing is believing. That's why we're having a joint psychic birthday party! I can't wait until December!
I cannot begin to tell you how amazing Bethany is. I went to my first reading in July and just had my second this week, and was blown away both times. She is someone who you instantly feel comfortable with (even if you're nervous), and her warmth and sincerity make it easy to feel 'at home' in her presence. Her accuracy is simply astounding and I've told everyone I know that they need to experience a reading...even if you're someone who doesn't believe...you will after seeing Bethany.
I had my first reading with Bethany shortly before the New Year. I was completely blown away at how accurate she was with my reading. I had no expectations before going in but walking away I learned so much more than I ever would have expected. She is truly talented. Not only is she in the right profession and can help people but she has a warm aura about her that makes you feel like you've known her all your life. I can't wait for my next reading.
As soon as I walked through the door at Bethany's house I felt relaxed and comfortable ( I was a nervous). She was spot on with her information and she made me feel at peace with a lot of things. The only sad part is that I have to wait six months to see here again. I felt like family by the end of the reading.
Today I experienced my very first reading and it was so enlightening. Bethany was very informative about my past and future. She takes her time explaining what the cards mean as they relate to you. She provided me with so much information that I can't wait to see the outcome of 2011. I will definitely go back for another reading in the future!
I had my first reading with Bethany yesterday. What a warm, kind, gifted woman. She has the ability to read you,.. not only in the cards, but your overall energy. She was "right on". What a wonderful experience! I'll be back! If you have considered going to a psychic, Bethany is the right choice. GO!
I had a reading with Bethanny a while ago. She was amazing. Almost everything that she said would happen came to pass. Not all of it was what I wanted to hear- but she was really honest and empowering when delivering difficult news. I left the call feeling better and feeling very directed! Thank you.
Bethany read for me today and i want to say that she was so right with so many things. My bestfriend/brother just passed and she knew things only a true psychic could have known since i gave her no names. Thank you so much for helping me see that he is still here with me. I would recommend her to anyone and i will be getting another reading in the future.
I was truly suprised with my reading. I have been to psychics before, but Bethany blew them all out of the water. I hardly gaver her any information and she pulled out everything I wanted to know. If you are in any doubts I would alleviate them. She is the real deal and I couldn't have asked for a better reading.
I had a reading done by Bethnay, I felt her her warmth as soon as I met her. I was just amazed how accurate she was. She picked up on my dad who had passed on several years ago (which made me cry) he relayed exactly what he would have said in person if he was still here. I just cant wait until I can see her again.
I have been to psychics up and down the east coast, Bethany is truly remarkable. She touched on things that no one knew. She is positive and helpful in every way. She sees you as a whole person; past, present, and future. Whether it is your first time going for a reading or have received many, she is definitely worth a trip!
Bethany is awesome. She is friendly, to the point and very easy to talk to! She is also very accurate and I felt terriffic when my reading was complete. I will continue to have readings with her. I highly recommend her!
What amazed me initially when Bethany started the reading was how detailed she was in answering my questions. Along with her accurate responses, she also provided additional information that I didn't ask! When my reading with Bethany ended, I felt such relief and reassurance with what she told me. I will definitely call her again for more readings!
I was nervous at first but Bethany immediately relaxed me. I felt comfortable and very safe which was really important to me. Bethany was right on time for me. She was pleasant and truthful; and her energy was fantastic. I look forward to seeing her again.
Bethany is a wonderful, intuitive individual who was directly to the point with my phone reading. She has this remarkable ability to make you feel at ease about your situation. She made me feel that my thoughts and feelings were valid. I have had my cards read over the past several years, but I have never experienced such a truthful, pleasant and reassuring individual as Bethany. I will most definately be seeing her again.
I first met Bethany at an event 2 years ago. I was so impressed with her that I sought her out again online. We had a phone reading again today and I feel so reassured after her insightful answers to many of my questions. She knew information about the very things that were bothering me and was so accurate in her descriptions of what was going on without me telling her. I truly appreciate her insight and would highly recommend her.
Bethany is intuitive and warm. She picked up on what was going on in my life and gave me insight as to how my situation will play out. I plan on seeing Bethany again to help give me guidance in this difficult time.
It's been 6 months since my first reading with Bethany (or any psychic), and I can't believe how many things came true that she said would happen. She was right on in so many different areas of my life, and looking back I'm amazed at how accurate she was. She was so easy to talk to and made me feel comfortable letting my emotions out. It was almost like a great therapy sssion! I'm looking forward to going back to her very soon since it's been 6 months!
My daughter and I were both read for by Bethany last night, and it was truly an uplifting experience. Immediately upon starting, my beloved dad, gone 23 years now and sorely missed, communicated an important and loving message to me via Bethany. I was given spot-on info about things going on in my life and suggestions on how to best handle them. My daughter was just as pleased with her reading. Bethany's kindness was wonderful, and I look forward to going back in six months on the dot!

Q: Number of surjective functions from $\{1,2,...,n\}$ to $\{a,b,c\}$ Ok so following questions are given in my text book

Let $A = \{1, 2, 3,...., n\}$ and $B =\{a, b, c\}$ then the number of functions form $A$ to $B$ that are onto is.

I have no idea how to find the answer can anybody help me
Thanks Akash

A: For a function we know that a unique element from $B$ is assigned to every element of $A$. Therefore counting functions from $A$ to $B$ is the same as counting strings of length $|A|=n$ with elements from $B$.
So then there are $3^n$ functions from $A$ to $B$ in total. To find all surjective functions we must subtract all strings which only consist of elements in $\{a,b\}$ or $\{a,c\}$ or $\{b,c\}$ or only of either of the single elements $a,b$ or $c$.
Now each time we count the strings consisting of two elements (functions with an image containing only 2 elements in B) we also count two strings consisting of only a single element in B (eg counting strings consisting of {a,b} include counting the two strings only consisting of a and b). So we must subtract 2 strings for every such a case. This gives us all the functions with exactly 2 elements in its image: $3\cdot 2^n-3 \cdot 2$.
Finally we count functions which only have a single element of B in its image (there are only 3).
So then, taking it all together we have, number of functions onto $B$ is \begin{equation} 3^n-(3\cdot 2^n-3\cdot 2)-3. \end{equation}

"The Democratic party does a disservice to women by trying to hold them hostage over the issue of Roe v. Wade," Fiorina said, speaking at a tea in Minneapolis for business women attending the Republican National Convention. "There are many women who feel very strongly about reproductive rights and I respect them. Most women I know care about many things. I know pro-choice women who are very much for John McCain."
"It's the strongest language we've ever had," Stone said, regarding the big tent pitch. "It's pretty significant." But the preamble language has received little attention. Perhaps, as Fiorina said, reproductive rights are not driving voting choices as they once did. Do you agree? Will a candidate's position on reproductive rights determine your vote?


Mike Napoli's three-run double in the first inning of last night's World Series opener put the Red Sox on the path for an 8 to 1 drubbing of the St. Louis Cardinals at Fenway Park. The cardinals committed three costly errors and lost star right fielder Carlos Beltran who injured himself running into Fenway's unusually low right field wall -- while making a spectacular catch, that robbed David Ortiz of a grand slam. That is just one of the quirks of Fenway, the old-school ball park that throbbed with sox fans last night. It's one of few remaining fields in the nation that isn't named for a bank, or a drink. Fenway has a personality--and a history--today's sox fans sit in the same spot where even more raucous fans sat in in 1912, when Fenway Park opened its doors.
Glenn Stout tells the story of the idiosyncratic park's construction, christening and enduring charm in the book "Fenway 1912: The Birth of a Ball Park, A Championship Season, and Fenway's Remarkable First Year". We spoke to him last year when the book came out...and pulled it from the archives today…a great day to celebrate Fenway Park .
No Yankees In The Playoffs? What's A Red Sox Fan To Do?
The Red Sox faithful are holding their breath for a resurrection after a 26 game deficit behind the Yankees and a dismal .426 winning percentage last year. Yesterday, New Hampshire's own Darren Garnick was in attendance at Fenway's opening day, one face in a crowd of thousands hoping for a win under New Hampshire native – and new Red Sox skipper, Ben Cherington. Darren is a former business columnist and contributor to New Hampshire magazine and joins us today to discuss opening day, the Red Sox, and the New Hampshire fans who love them.

A strong finish of back-to-back singles victories secured the North Carolina men's tennis team a spot in Saturday's NCAA Elite Eight match against Texas Christian University, knocking No. 4 Illinois out of the tournament.
A singles loss late in the day positioned the Tar Heels behind 3-2, placing the potential Elite Eight advancement in the hands of sophomores Ronnie Schneider and Brayden Schnur.
And the two men did just that, bringing their team to a 4-3 victory.
In January, the Tar Heels fell to the Illini 4-3. Thursday, Schnur said a large part of the different outcome was Schneider's appearance.
And Schneider said that his physical health and hard work over the course of the year gave him confidence and motivation to finish his final match of he day.
The whole team is healthy and strong, Schneider said, allowing the men to play the best tennis they've played all season. And Paul agrees.
The Tar Heels' outstanding performance during doubles competition and strong singles finish, Schneider said, exposes the high level of athleticism and competitiveness the team has been working toward all season. And, Paul said, he is thrilled but not surprised by the impressive win.

Q: Nodejs - Pipe multi inputs to a spawned process As we all know, we can pipe a stream to spawn child process.
Just do like this:
const fs = require('fs')
const { spawn } = require('child_process')
const child = spawn('ffmpeg', '-i pipe:0 -f h264 pipe:1').split(' '),{
  stdio: ['pipe','pipe','ignore']
})
const readStream = fs.createReadStream('./a.h264')
readStream.pipe(child.stdin)
child.stdout.pipe(fs.createWriteStream('./b.h264')

But how could I pipe two different input to the child?
const { spawn } = require('child_process');
const fs = require('fs');
const child = spawn(
  'ffmpeg',
  `-i pipe:0 -i pipe:1 -acodec aac -filter_complex amix=inputs=2:duration=longest -movflags frag_keyframe+separate_moof+omit_tfhd_offset+empty_moov -f mp4 pipe:2`.split(' '),
  {
    stdio: ['pipe', 'pipe', 'pipe', 'ignore']
  }
);
const readStream = fs.createReadStream('./a.ulaw');
const readStream1 = fs.createReadStream('./b.h264');
readStream.pipe(child.stdio[0]);
readStream1.pipe(child.stdio[1]);
child.stdio[2].pipe(fs.createWriteStream('./c.mp4'));

The tantalising prospect of a latter-day Alfa Romeo TZ, the distinctive little coupe dubbed the "baby Ferrari GTO" cooked up by Alfa and Zagato as a GT racer in the early 1960s, looks set to become a reality. Sixty years on the two Italian companies are at it again, teasing a new coachbuilt coupe. And with the superb current Giulia as the basis, it could be really something special.
Both Alfa Romeo and Zagato have confirmed via social media that the project exists and goes by the name Giulia SWB Zagato. They are not sharing anything more about it at the moment, aside from teasing us with a video clip of a wavy thin red line. It's clearly an LED light bar – but equally clearly mimics the outline of the TZ's sharply cut off, Kammback rear end, one of the car's most distinctive features.
Repackaging modern components into a form that draws inspiration from the TZ comes with the potential to be a real driver's delight, as well of course as being a typically individual-looking car in the Zagato tradition.
The original TZ was a force to be reckoned with. Small, aerodynamic and very light weight (just 660kg), the "baby GTO" was developed as a bespoke racer by Alfa's competition arm AutoDelta in league with Zagato. Powered by a 1600cc twin-cam four-cylinder engine with 160PS (119kW), the TZ won on its race debut in 1962 and from then on proved virtually unbeatable, winning its class at Sebring, the Targa Florio, Nürburgring, the Tour de Corse and Monza.
The secret of its light weight was its aluminium-alloy bodywork created by Carrozzeria Zagato, which clothed a multi-tubular spaceframe, a construction technique that provided the initials for the new car's name: Tubolare Zagato.
The TZ took its mechanical components from the then-current Alfa Romeo saloon, the Giulia TI, and we can assume that will be the case with the new Giulia SWB Zagato. We can't imagine it will revert to a tubular spaceframe though; far more likely is a version of the Giulia monocoque but with a shortened wheelbase, cutting weight and enhancing agility.
From all this it is easy to imagine a coupe that's shorter, lower, more aerodynamic, much lighter, track proven and powered by…what? If we are going to speculate we'll put in a bid now for the superb 2.9-litre twin-turbo V6 from the current Giulia Quadrifoglio, and which in GTA form boasts as much as 540PS (403kW).
Today's Giulia is already one of our favourite cars. So how good could the Giulia SWB Zagato be? One thing's for sure; it's bound to look distinctive. Alfa and Zagato first worked together a hundred years ago and have jointly produced many memorable cars, though not for a while – the SZ of the 1990s being the last time the two joined forces to design a car.
The Giulia SWB Zagato is also bound to be on the pricey side, like the TZ these days: Gooding & Co auctioned one of those at its Hampton Court sale in London in September 2022 and got £1.1m for it. The new car's very nature will also make it a very rare item, again like the original. Only 117 of those, plus a dozen of the restyled and more powerful TZ 2 models, were made before production ended in 1967.
Alfa Romeo has its own new sports cars coming, according to the latest masterplan for the storied Italian marque, but there's surely always room for a few specials to further the rebuilding of sporting prowess – so we really hope this one comes off.

Charles-Édouard Jeanneret-Gris, better known as Le Corbusier, was an architect, designer, painter, urban planner, writer, and one of the pioneers of what is now called modern architecture. He was born in Switzerland and became a French citizen in 1930. His career spanned five decades, with his buildings constructed throughout Europe, India, and America. He was a pioneer in studies of modern high design and was dedicated to providing better living conditions for the residents of crowded cities. He was awarded the Frank P. Brown Medal and AIA Gold Medal in 1961.
Le Corbusier adopted his pseudonym in the 1920s, allegedly deriving it in part from the name of an ancestor, Lecorbésier.

European car stocks - S W E▿D E N▿D I V▿I N my best german car is?
Iam going to share my thoughs about the European Car Stocks and where they might be heading. The dieselgate and climate change has not really affected the European car stocks, at least not yet. The European car stocks has had a brilliant rise in stock value during the last year (2017-2018). On average, the biggest car stocks have risen by 30 %.
Well I think thats going to change. And here is why I think so.
The Swedish Central Bank is soon going to have a meeting (I think in november) where they will discuss to increase interest rates. A lot of people here in Sweden buy cars on rates, especially young people. If the rates start to rise, less people are going to afford owning new, expensive cars. Other banks in European Union wants to impose higher rates as well.
Stronger euro, dollar and a weaker Swedish crown makes it hard to buy cars from outside my country. For example 1 dollar makes around 9 Swedish crowns ( 2018.09.03), this means that the Swedish crown is historcally weak towards the USD. For us in Sweden its a bad time to invest in US or to import US made cars. The EUR/USD is around 1.16. This contributes the fact that it is not so attractive to import US made cars on a mass scale.
Diesel scandal in Germany sended echoes in all over the European Union. Swedish goverment and especially the enviroment party called Miljöpartiet was eager too bann all diesel cars! They wanted to bann all diesel cars starting within Stockholm. I remember one time it was all over the news every day for three weeks non-stop. In the morning I could read breaking news such as "Your diesel cars is crap", or "If you have a diesel car you are soon to be banned from entering major cities in Sweden". It made me scared and not just me, a lot of people in Sweden/Stockholm sold their diesel cars. Prices went down. It was hard to sell a diesel EU5 car for good money. I owned a diesel car back then, an expensive one for my economy. I knew that they would not ban me from entering Stockholm in the near future. But still I had thoughts like: "Would there be a buyer if I wanted to sell the car later on?".
You also have Tesla and other Japanese cars that are green cars. They are environmentally friendly at the same time have cool looking styles. Maybe this is the future?
People in Sweden are a little torn when it com to what car to buy. The country side have long distances to the major cities. Most of people still live in small towns. The winters are cold and diesel would be the ultimate car in Sweden, or so we thought.
In Winter energy losess are greater then in summer if you drive electric car like for exemple a Tesla. You cannot really depend on getting to your destination without stoping a couple of times on a cold winter in Sweden. A lot of people are woundering if you could put a trailer on a electric car on a cold Swedish winter. How long could you pull the trailer before you run out of electric energy.
Question is: are electric cars that enviroment friendly? What about the big battery who is going to take care about the disposal?
To produce a battery with 100 kWh like the one in the Tesla. About 20 tonnes of Co2 emission is released to the atmosphere. Mercedes E 220d have an emission of 102 grams of Co2 / km, which means that in mixed driving, you could travel between 9000 miles to reach up to the 20 tonnes only then Tesla would start to be enviroment friendly.
Swedendivin conclussion is that bigger car stocks maybe has had their peak for this time. Future is green but we have a long way still to go. Only time can tell, for sure. I have Daimler stock but iam not increasing, not yet until i see more green Daimler. So for now I am laying low concentrating on other sectors. Though, we will always need transportation.
Here is a picture of me and my first car. A Felicia 1.3 petrol engine 58 hp. Iam the driver and my two friends are also from the Medical University. In the picture we are taking a rest after driving 20 hours with no sleep. Lake Balaton was our destination.
Cls amg 350d. Impressive range for this beast and its not even full tank.


We know it's all about the reports, so we constantly trying to make your life easier. As part of the ongoing updates, we have upgraded the report that Beetle Eye generates after your campaign is over to a PDF format, containing more rich information like broken down advanced campaigns by variants, campaign overview (including unique opens rates), clicks, browsers, etc.
The other reporting that was added is the functionality to export survey results (the little down-pointing arrow when you hover your survey). This tool will let you export survey results within a specific timeframe.


The folks at AK Interactive were obviously very impressed with the weathering techniques of Virgil Suárez (aka: Dr. Cranky). Impressed enough as a mostly Armor/AFV modeling company to want to publish a book about doing amazing weathering techniques on car and truck models. As you will see from the photos there are some amazing results by Virgil and his friends in the scale auto modeling world. This book is one of the most finely crafted publications in our hobby I have yet seen. I am speaking as a graphic designer here and not as a hobbyist, but I think even the average reader will appreciate the sheer amount of work that was put into making the book look as good as it is.
On first look it might appear that this book is all images, but that is because pages 68 through 109 are dedicated to showcasing the completed works of Dr. Cranky and other accomplished auto modelers. The opening pages of the book read like an introduction to modeling and would probably make this book a great gift for a friend who might be considering making the plunge into the hobby. From about page 18 though Virgil really starts to give out tips and techniques that will interest modelers of any genre. Some of the interesting bits I noted was his use of a magnetic jig to properly position his chassis and wheels so that they are all touching ground evenly.
Of course the core of the book are the painting, airbrushing and weathering techniques (pages 26 through 57). There are sections on painting via aerosol cans as well as using an airbrush. Armor/AFV modelers will really be interested in the rust and weathering tips. The salt method, hairspray technique, and color modulation are all covered in this book.
The last bit of tutorial text is devoted to "Photographing, Displaying, and Showing your Work" (pages 58 thru 67). Again all the basics are covered here as well as some nice professional-grade tips.
I don't have any qualms about recommending this book. If I did have any reservations it would only be that this book is limited in teaching certain techniques only due to its medium (print). That said I think Virgil does a good job via text describing how he does his magic. However don't expect a lot of 'how-to' step by step images to go along with his text. There are some, but only those showing the evolution of the model, etc., not the actual real-time application of paint or weathering materials.
This book will probably fit different needs for different level modelers. For auto modelers I would say this book is probably going to become an essential pick for their shelves. For the casual or beginner modeler this book can provide a good level of tips and advice on starting up (or getting back into) modeling. For non-auto modelers this book still has something to offer. For one is just plain inspirational. If you don't get the urge to build a 1/24 scale car or truck (your first one maybe?) after reading through or even perusing this book I would be very much surprised.
If you are already a weathering master than likely you will not need the knowledge available in this book, but you will certainly still enjoy seeing the photos of old rusty autos. At the very least it makes a heck of a coffee table book to entertain friends and neighbors.
Highs: Amazing photos, thoughtful text, and the quality of the book is top notch.
Lows: Limited number of 'how-to' images depicting actual techniques in process.
Verdict: A wonderful book for modelers of any age, experience or genre.
I have the book in my hands and i can second everything mentioned in the review. Beside this i thinks Its always a good think to have a look beyond the own nose, so this is truly a great source of inspiration for most of the modelers, no matter what they do. Also mentioned in the review already, the design is impressing. I can recommend it to every modeler with a holistic approach to the hobby. Yes, fellow modelers. This book is a true gem. I love it.
Thank you for this review, just ordered my copy.
Thanks a lot for this book! Inspirational like few others! And thank god that this man is building cars and not armour!

fine (adj.)
mid-13c., "unblemished, refined, pure, free of impurities," also "of high quality, choice," from Old French fin "perfected, of highest quality" (12c.), a back-formation from finire or else from Latin finis "that which divides, a boundary, limit, border, end" (see finish (v.)); hence "acme, peak, height," as in finis boni "the highest good." The English word is from c. 1300 as "rich, valuable, costly;" also in a moral sense "true, genuine; faithful, constant." From late 14c. as "expertly fashioned, well or skillfully made," also, of cloth, "delicately wrought." Of weapons or edges, "sharp" from c. 1400. In reference to quality of gold and silver, late 15c.
In French, the main meaning remains "delicate, intricately skillful;" in English since c. 1300 fine has been also a general broad expression of admiration or approval, the equivalent of French beau (as in fine arts, "those which appeal to the mind and the imagination," 1767, translating French beaux-arts). Related: Finer; finest. Fine print is from 1861 as "type small and close-set;" by 1934 in the extended sense "qualifications and limitations of a deal."
fine (n.)
c. 1200, "termination, end; end of life," from Old French fin "end, limit, boundary; death; fee, payment, finance, money" (10c.), from Latin finis "end" (see finish (v.)), in Medieval Latin also "payment in settlement, fine or tax."
Modern meaning "exaction of money payment for an offense or dereliction" is via sense of "sum of money paid for exemption from punishment or to compensate for injury" (mid-14c., from the same sense in Anglo-French, late 13c.) and from phrases such as to make fine "make one's peace, settle a matter" (c. 1300). Meaning "sum of money imposed as penalty for some offense" is first recorded 1520s.
fine (v.)
late 13c., "pay as a ransom or penalty," from fine (n.). Inverted meaning "to punish by pecuniary penalty" is from 1550s. Related: Fined; fining.
Entries linking to fine
finish (v.)
late 14c., "to bring to an end;" mid-15c., "to come to an end" (intransitive), from Old French finiss-, present participle stem of fenir "stop, finish, come to an end; die" (13c.), from Latin finire "to limit, set bounds; put an end to; come to an end," from finis "that which divides, a boundary, border," figuratively "a limit, an end, close, conclusion; an extremity, highest point; greatest degree," which is of unknown origin, perhaps related to figere "to fasten, fix" (see fix (v.)). Meaning "to kill, terminate the existence of" is from 1755.
finance (n.)
c. 1400, "an end, settlement, retribution," from Old French finance "end, ending; pardon, remission; payment, expense; settlement of a debt" (13c.), noun of action from finer "to end, settle a dispute or debt," from fin (see fine (n.)). Compare Medieval Latin finis "a payment in settlement, fine or tax."
The notion is of "ending" (by satisfying) something that is due (compare Greek telos "end;" plural tele "services due, dues exacted by the state, financial means"). The French senses gradually were brought into English: "ransom" (mid-15c.), "taxation" (late 15c.); the sense of "management of money, science of monetary business" first recorded in English 1770.

After installing Mojave I was prompted in Terminal and FileZilla for a password whenever I connected to my web server. Since I use key files to connect I thought this behavior was odd. This appears to be a MacOS issue as Apple has changed the behavior in Sierra.
That's it. Now my apps no longer prompt me for a password every time I try to use my ssh keys.


Working hard to finance herself, she worked a variety of jobs including fertilizing cactus with a silver spoon, running the projector at the local cinema and chauffeuring Beverly Hills residents around. Moving on to the beautiful Caribbean island of Montserrat, Frané set up an art table and began to paint waterfalls, brightly coloured houses, colonial architecture and the people and landscapes around her.
Inspired to create a book that the local children could identify with, her first book was born.
'My Little Island' tells the story of a young boy who rediscovers, while on a visit with his best friend, the delight of his homeland. Fiery colors and hundreds of details evoke the sun–drenched beauty, the sweet smells, and the joyful sounds of the jewel–like little Caribbean island in Frané 's distinctive illustration style.
Getting it published however didn't come easily. Moving to London, Frané approached almost thirty publishers before finally getting her work accepted and released in the U.K and the Caribbean in 1984. It went on to win St. Maarten's Children's Book of the Year 1985, Library of Congress Children's Book Committee Book of the Year List 1986 and a Reading Rainbow Feature Book. One of the paintings from the book was also selected as the cover for After The Hurricane – Songs For Montserrat, a fundraiser compilation album, conceived by Beatles producer George Martin, to raise funds to benefit Montserrat hurricane victims.
Now residing in Australia, Frané has created over forty children's books set all around the world and is the recipient of the Muriel Barwell Award for Distinguished Service to Children's Literature 2010.
Frané speaks at festivals both here and internationally and has presented at the Singapore Asian Festival of Children's Content, Bali's Ubud Writer's Festival, Bookaroo Festivals in India & Kuching, the Eric Carle Museum, Edinburgh International Writers Festival, Beijing Bookworm Literature Festival, Brooklyn Book Festival, Politics and Prose Bookstore in Washington D.C, and the Los Angeles and Bologna SCBWI Conferences.
Frané has served on the executive committee of the Australian Society of Authors, was the Regional Advisor for the West Australian Society of Children's Book Writer's and Illustrators, a State Ambassador for National Year of Reading and an Ambassador for Room to Read and Books in Homes.
With her ambition to instill pride and self-esteem in children about their unique heritage and their own ability to capture it in pictures and words, traveling continues to be a major source of inspiration for her work.

I lead a small team focusing on breast cancer research. We are investigating a number of different questions using a combination of approaches involving imaging, low input RNA sequencing, lineage tracing and genetic manipulation. I also work on developing widely applicable tools and methodologies to help tackle these questions.
Many women who are diagnosed with breast cancer will not die from their primary disease. Instead, and sometimes many years after their initial diagnosis, they will develop spontaneous, rapidly advancing and often fatal metastasis. It is thought that this metastasis develops from cancer cells that have lain dormant in distant niches, waiting for the signals to activate and divide. What keeps these cells in their dormant state is unknown, as are the signals that cause them to start rapidly dividing again. Is it the cells themselves that control their fate, or is it the local environment surrounding the lone cancer cell? Our work in this area is attempting to answer some of these questions. Using a sophisticated microscope, capable of imaging and sectioning simultaneously, we are able to image throughout an organ and retain the tissue for later analysis . This enables us to locate and visualize the environment of single cancer cells that are sitting in a dormant state, having left the primary tumor, and allows us to profile the gene expression of these cells and their local area. We are working on techniques to capture these cells and analyse their gene expression, allowing us to manipulate them in order for them to be either destroyed, or remain in their dormant state. The hope is that we will learn about how we can treat ALL the cells from a cancer.
Ductal carcinoma insitu (DCIS) is often referred to as early stage breast cancer.These abnormal cells are localized to the milk ducts, and technically still external to the body, they are therefore not considered as an invasive cancer. However this disease can progress, in approx 50% of cases, to invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC), where cells have broken out of the duct and begun to invade the breast tissue, developing into one of many subtypes of breast cancer. One of the major challenges of this disease is identifying what causes some women to develop IDC where as others do not, and how best to treat women diagnosed with DCIS to avoid over treatment. We are using a combination of laser capture microscopy, to isolate small, specific areas of breast tissue with low input RNA seq to look for shared and distinct traits in this disease.
The roles of different cell types within a cancer is vast. Certain immune cells, such as T-cells and macrophages have been shown to play a fundamental role in the development of a primary tumor, and in its ability to metastasis. I am interested primarily in the role of macrophages and how the cancer cells are able to shift the state of these cells, from one which would potentially destroy the cancer cells, to one that instead promotes cancer growth. Being able to genetically manipulate these cells in vitro has long been a challenge, my work has allowed the infection of bone marrow derived macrophages with shRNA expressing virus, enabling the manipulation of target genes to track their contribution to the pro-tumor fate of these cells.
Cancers are typically made up of a collection of different cell types, each one working with the others to perfect the ability for the cancer to grow and spread. How these different cells function is not 100% known. Do certain cells types always form the primary tumor, while others always go on to metastasis, and others still evade standard cancer drugs? or is in a random collection of driver mutations that create tumor heterogeneity? I am interested in how we can use the existing heterogeneity within a tumor to learn about predispositions a cell might have, and how we can use this knowledge to develop new standard of care for cancer patients.


Now this was unexpected. Another FMA series. I guess that this was announced by Arakawa in the 20th volume of the manga. The English language version is available (English subtitles, not dubbed) as of April 10th of this year. And Funimation said that they would stream subtitled episodes four days after their air date.
All in all, as a pretty big Fullmetal Alchemist fan, I think that this is totally awesome. But I think I'll wait until Funimation gets their hands on the series for the dubbing process before I watch it.
I don't see the problem with waiting. But I'm glad that you think it's good so far. All of this will make it all worth while.


My process of working stems from experiences gained working on a grain farm and constructing houses. Each of these activities offered fresh 'seasonal' opportunities and explorations into process and intent much the same way I approach a group of visual images today. They both taught me the importance of craftsmanship, planning, and a love of form building, as well as introducing a great deal of curiosity for a vast variety of materials and processes. It was during these years that I often found my visual interest being directed to the discarded or in-progress states of the farm or construction site. A pile of lumber, cement forms, and torn tar paper were often visually more engaging and compositionally more challenging than the final structure. Marks in the soil from tilling, the ritual of tedious hoeing, and half buried corn stalks in winter snow were as magical as the crop itself.
Each set of the visual works describes a searching, assembling forms, and then finding ways to disassemble or question the parts and rebuild. This process of building, destroying and rebuilding I find to be a natural cycle in both everyday life and spirituality. A reverence, along with irreverence for image making: care and disregard are both deemed necessary and promoted.


Talk to your doctor about whether counting carbs or following the food-exchange system is right for you.
Q: My doctor told me I need to start counting my carbs. How does it work, and is it different from the food-exchange system?
A: People with diabetes are sometimes told they need to count carbs or follow a food-exchange system to standardize their diets. Counting carbs is particularly important for people who take insulin because their dosage is dependent on the amount of carbohydrate they need to offset. They determine the number of carbs they will eat in a particular meal, calculate the amount of insulin they will need to clear those carbs from their blood, then give themselves an injection (or program the amount into their insulin pump). Every "portion" of food in a carb-counting list is equal to 15 grams of carbohydrate — including grains, fruits, dairy products, and starchy vegetables. All you need to know is that every 15 grams of carbohydrate counts as 1 carb choice. For example, one medium apple = 15 grams of carbs = 1 portion. Some doctors and diabetes educators instruct their patients to either count total carb grams or count the number of carb portions. If you are a carb counter, look for total carbohydrate grams on the Nutrition Facts panel of the meals in my Recipe Index.
The food-exchange system organizes foods according to their nutritional content: Starch, Fruit, Vegetable, Fat-Free/Reduced-Fat Milk (including milk and yogurt), Very Lean Meat, Lean Meat, Medium-Fat Meat, High-Fat Meat, and Fat. If your doctor has instructed you to follow the exchange system, then follow those recommendations. For type 2 diabetes sufferers who do use the food-exchange system, I've included the exchange breakdown for all of my best Recipes for Type 2 Diabetes.

Principal Investigator - Annamaria Petrozza
The Advanced Materials for Optoelectronics (AMO) group focuses on investigation of the physics behind low cost "future generation" photovoltaic concepts and on the development of associated optoelectronic devices, with a special emphasis on the role of interfacial optoelectronic mechanisms and the goal of improving device efficiency and stability.
AMO has been active since 2010 in the Center for Nano Science and Technology @PoliMi (CNST) of the Italian Institute of Technology. Since 2012, the group core-activity has been the investigation of solution processable metal halide perovskites, a family of crystalline semiconductors with amazing potential for application in optoelectronic and photonic devices.
Unlike more widely studied inorganic semiconductors, metal halide perovskites have fluctuating ionic structures where tilting, distortions, and polarizability of the lattice strongly affect the optoelectronic properties. This makes the functionality and reliability of perovskite-based devices strongly dependent on the control of the structure-property relationship of the active material and of its response to external stimuli, such as chemical interactions upon interface formation, electric field, light, and environmental agents.
Material Synthesis and Processing. We develop methods for the synthesis and processing of semiconductors with improved optoelectronic properties, while responding to selection criteria which include low cost, durability, scalability and environmental impact (low energy and resource demands, reduced toxicity)
Advanced Spectroscopy. By combining optical, vibrational and electronic spectroscopy, we investigate the optoelectronic properties of semiconductors, how they are affected when forming interfaces and how and if they will define the related device's functionalities.
Device Fabrication and Characterization. We test our materials mainly for energy and photonic applications. We design, fabricate and characterize optoelectronic devices in order to improve efficiency and stability while understanding their working mechanisms over different length and time scales.
Most AMO Group activities take place in a chemical lab, ARCOLab, and three spectroscopy labs, TRPL-Lab, TA/PEEM Lab & CW Lab. ARCOLab is fully dedicated to the synthesis of materials and the fabrication and testing of perovskite-based devices, whereas our spectroscopy labs are dedicated to steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopies from femtosecond to microsecond time scales, as well as Photo-Emission Electron Microscopy (PEEM). We are in a lively and multidisciplinary Center, which gives us full access to printing tools for device manufacturing, an Electrical Characterization Lab and a Structural and Morphological Characterization lab. As a result, our technical capabilities are as follows:
Material synthesis and structural and morphological characterization. ARCOLab is equipped with nitrogen and oxygen lines, a fume hood with a Schlenk line and a rotary evaporator, which allows for basic synthesis processes. Within the shared facilities we count with morphology/structure investigating tools such as SEM, AFM, XRD, vibrational spectroscopy set-ups (Raman and IR) and contact angle measurements.
Advanced Spectroscopy. Our labs feature a variety of light sources and flexible set-ups for the study of the photophysical properties of semiconductors.
-TRPL Lab is dedicated to time-resolved photoluminescence. A tunable ultrafast oscillator (Chameleon, 80 MHz) coupled to an optical parametric oscillator provides excitation from the NIR (950 nm) to UV (350 nm). The resulting photoluminescence can be measured with a time resolution of 1.6 ps in the visible range (Hamamatsu Streak Camera, up to 900 nm), and 1 ns in the IR (TCSPC, up to 1400 nm).
-CW Lab offers a variety of light sources on CW or low repetition rate mode. These can be coupled with flexible photoluminescence lines and integrating spheres to test our materials under varied illumination conditions, or used in connection with a spectrophotometer (200-2500 nm) and a spectrofluorometer (300 nm-1700 nm). Electro-absorption and charge modulation spectroscopy set-ups are also available. Particularly useful for perovskite research is our Photothermal Deflection Spectroscopy (PDS) set-up, to probe weak sub bandgap absorption up to five orders of magnitude below that at the band-edge.
-TA/PEEM Lab. This lab hosts a femtosecond laser system dedicated to ultrafast time-resolved spectroscopies, including a transient absorption spectrometer, excitation correlation photoluminescence (ECPL) and optical gain measurements. This laser system is coupled to our Photo-Emission Electron Microscope (tr-PEEM). One particular novelty of our time-resolved systems in this lab is the particularly large range of accessible time delays, over 10 orders of magnitude time-delay (10-13–10-3 s).
Our optical labs are equipped with vacuum and cryogenic equipment which allows us to perform experiments in a controlled atmosphere and down to 4 K.
Fabrication and characterization of perovskite-based devices. ARCOLab is fully equipped to fabricate and characterize solar cells and light-emitting diodes (LED). Starting with an ultrasonic bath, O2 plasma and UV ozone chambers, a spin-coater and hot plates, which allow for a variety of substrate preparation methods, through a Nitrogen filled three-chamber glovebox with a spin coater and hotplates, an organic/inorganic evaporator, a metal evaporator and finishing with an encapsulation process, we are capable of fabrication of devices with different architectures. The laboratory is equipped with a profilometer and an UV-Vis spectrophotometer in order to control immediately the quality of fabricated perovskite films.
Additionally, in ARCOLab we have the equipment necessary to perform a full electrical characterization of solar cells and LEDs. Setup for includes includes a solar simulator with fully automatic sample holder for 16 substrates, a separate system for EQE measurement and a P&O Maximum Power Point Tracker to perform stability tests in controlled environment and temperature. For LEDs characterization, we built a setup consisting of a two-channel sourcemeter and a spectrometer. We possess also an aging chamber with controlled atmosphere, illumination and temperature, which allows us to perform degradation tests on the devices.
In addition, we have access to the Electrical Characterization Lab of CNST which is equipped for the full characterization of devices such as transistors and photodetectors.

Q: Stop after last slide I just want to ask if you could help me on this.
I have this script below for auto slide but I want it to stop sliding/loop to start after the last slide. The 2nd if that I added seems not working or should I say that it is incorrect.
var counter = 1;
setInterval(function(){
    document.getElementById('radio' + counter).checked = true;
    counter++;
    if(counter > 14){
        counter = 1;
    }
    if(counter < 14){
        counter= 1;
    }
}, 11000);
