Andrew J. Mannix
Assistant Professor of Materials Science and Engineering
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsAtomically thin 2D materials incorporated into van der Waals heterostructures are a promising platform to deterministically engineer quantum materials with atomically resolved thickness and abrupt interfaces across macroscopic length scales while retaining excellent material properties. Because 2D materials exhibit a wide range of electronic characteristics with properties that often rival conventional electronic materials — e.g., metals, semiconductors, insulators, and superconductors — it is possible to combine them in virtually infinite variety to achieve diverse heterostructures. Furthermore, the van der Waals interface enables interlayer twist engineering to modify the interlayer symmetry, periodic potential (moiré superlattice), and hybridization, which has resulted in novel quantum states of matter. Many of these heterostructures, especially those involving specific interlayer twist angles, would be otherwise infeasible through direct growth.
The Mannix Group is developing a unique set of in-house capabilities to systematically elucidate the fundamental structure-property relationships underpinning the growth of 2D materials and their inclusion into van der Waals heterostructures. Greater understanding will allow us to provide a platform for engineering the properties of matter at the atomic scale and offer guidance for emerging applications in novel electronics and in quantum information science.
To accomplish this, we employ: precise growth techniques such as chemical vapor deposition and molecular beam epitaxy; automated van der Waals assembly; and atomically-resolved microscopy including cryo-STM/AFM.

As messy and time-consuming as feeding a baby is, I've been looking forward to this process since well before Lucy was born. I am fascinated by the development of food likes and dislikes, and so curious about what kinds of foods/practices encourage healthy eating in the long term.
I am convinced that the order of food introduction, as well as repeatedly introducing foods that are initially rejected, play a big part in developing a baby's food tastes. (Life is funny, and if Murphy's Law holds true I'll end up with the kid who only eats white bread and Cocoa Puffs–but for now I'm going to try my best!). So rather than starting Lucy on the traditional bland rice cereal, I started with broccoli.
and eagerly helped me get the spoon into her mouth.
Despite the amount of broccoli you see on her bib, clothes, face, etc — most of it made it into her mouth.
Awesome, Amelia!!!!! I love sharing in your obvious joy of motherhood and Lucy's amazing development!!! Thank you!!!
well, it looks like lucy will take after her mother after all – broccoli is just about the healthiest thing a little one could eat. will frozen yogurt and sprinkles be her second meal?
How'd that work out on the other end?
There isn't a thing wrong with brocolli but for babies with touchy digestion it might be risky.
Haha-luckily it was fine 🙂 As long as the broccoli is well-cooked and blended with water or breastmilk, it should be fine for most babies. Babies with sensitive tummies may want to start with avocado or green beans. Those who tend toward constipation will have a tough time if they begin with the traditional rice cereal, as it's fortified with iron and starchy to begin with, so can plug a little one up.
As a soon to be mommy feeding my baby is something that I really look forward to also. It is very important to me to help my child eat as healthy as possible. I love your approach and appreciate you sharing your experiences with this and klook forward to seeing how it goes for you guys. Do you have any sites that I could go to for tips on how to introduce your baby to foods?
Thanks, Cassandra! As we go along, let me know what kinds of info you'd like to see on the site, and I'll be sure to post other resources as well.
I love that you're documenting this for Lucy and for all the curious moms! I'm sure there's so much conflicting info out there. This could be your calling, Meels!
Most moms start their babies on rice cereal, and although there's nothing wrong with that, I want to show moms that they can really start with whatever they want (unless there's a family history of food allergies) – beginning with green veggies is not just OK, it's great!

Q: Flappy Bird Coding Error in Swift I've encountered a coding error for my flappy bird project, in Xcode 6.1.
The code is to allow rotation of the bird, and it reads:
bird.zRotation = self.acotarMinMax(-1, max: 0.3, valor: bird.physicsBody?.velocity.dy * (bird.physicsBody?.velocity.dy < 0 ? 0.003 : 0.001))

the error occurs under dy, it reads:
value of optional type 'CGFloat?' not unwrapped; did you mean to use '!' or '?'?

How can I correct the error, or is there another way to generate rotation?
I am a total beginner of Swift, so I'm having a hard time figuring out if this is a syntax problem or something to do with the updated version.
I obtained the code from a online tutorial, and it worked in the video.

A: Read up on the Swift Optional class: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/Swift/Conceptual/Swift_Programming_Language/TheBasics.html
So it seems that dy is an Optional value, which means that it either has a value or it does not, but you don't know until you look into it (like Schroedinger's Cat). So if you need this value and you know it will not be nil, you unwrap it by writing bird.physicsBody?.velocity.dy! which will look into the "box" and take the value out but crash if there is nothing inside. If you write dy? it will look into the box but ignore it if the box is empty.
More on Optional Chaining (which is what you do) here: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/Swift/Conceptual/Swift_Programming_Language/OptionalChaining.html

A: So I just figured out my error.
As Sebastian correctly pointed out, it is to do with optional chaining.
The code that worked is:
bird.zRotation = self.acotarMinMax(-1, max: 1, valor: bird.physicsBody!.velocity.dy * (bird.physicsBody!.velocity.dy < 0 ? 0.002 : 0.002))

I used '!' to force a value on physicsBody. The precise mechanism of why this works is still a blur to me. But my guess is to do with the new version's correction method.

Vikingworld
Vikingaheimar is the home of the Viking Ship Íslendingur (the Icelander). Built in 1996, Icelander is an exact replica of the famous Gokstad ship, a remarkable archaeological find of an almost completely intact Viking ship, excavated in Norway in 1882.
The captain was inspired to build a replica of this beautiful ship based on his own background as shipbuilder and sailor. He copied the original nail for nail. In the year 2000, with a grant from the Leifur Eiríksson Commission of Iceland, he sailed from Iceland to New York, a journey of 4200 nautical miles. His voyage brought world-wide attention to Leif Eiriksson's and Bjarni Herjólfsson's discovery of America, dated, according to the Icelandic sagas, to exactly 1000 A.D.
Building Icelander was an extraordinary achievement; at 23 metres long, 5.25 meters wide and with a holding capacity of 80 tons (by modern standards), it took 2 years of effort. The sail is 130 square meters and the mast is 18 meters in length. Made from pine and oak, scholars believe this was the most common type of ship in use during the Viking Age.
The museum is about 5-10 minutes driving from Hotel Keflavik, it is also easily accessible walking from the hotel. We reccommend that every traveler in Keflavik visits the Vikin World museum to learn about Iceland's cultural inheritance and more.

Giganta in the Mountain
The Giganta in the mountain moved to the Town of Reykjanes during the family and cultural festival Night of Lights in 2008 and is now located in Black Cave at the marina in Gróf. There the Giganta has been settling in her nice cave with its superb view over the bay of Keflavík and Faxaflói.
The Giganta is originally the creation of author Herdís Egilsdóttir who has written 16 stories about the little girl Sigga and her friend the Giganta in the mountain, the last one describing her migration to the Town of Reykjanes, which first came out in 1959.
The design and making of the cave and the Giganta was in the hands of Norðanbál art group. The Giganta is full-sized and sits sleeping in a rocking chair in the kitchen. She some time's occasionally snores and passes gas. Although she's large there's no need to be alarmed she's always puts effort into being polite and helpful.

Reykjanes Maritime Center
A rich chapter in Iceland's maritime tradition seen through the model collection of Captain Grímur Karlsson. Almost since the the time the country was first settled, Icelanders have put to sea in search of fish. For centuries, they faced the might of the North Atlantic in open six- and eight-oared boats, a tradition which changed only with the coming of steam, and later diesel powered vessels in the years immediately following the First World War. Today, fishing is one of the pillars on which Icelandic society is built, and in creating his collection, Grímur Karlsson has preserved a vital chapter in his country's rich maritime heritage, which might otherwise have been lost forever.
For as long as he can remember the sea has captured the heart of Grímur Karlsson. A fisherman for many years, several of them spent as a skipper, he knows at first hand what life is like for those who spend weeks on end at sea. far from land, families and loved ones. For any sailor, life on boars is a unique experience, be it good or bad. For better or worse, the hulls, decks and cabins of the vessels on which they sail are their second home, and as in any other close community life brings with it its daily round of joys and sorrows, ups and downs, problems to be solved and thoughts to be shared. Such a confined atmosphere gives birth to a lively collection of tales and stories to be shared among shipmates and between ships, the truth of which varies and some of which never reach shore.
The models on show are over 100 vessels from various periods of the Icelandic fishing industry.
The museum traces the history of Icelandic boats from 1860 to the present day

Bridge between continents
The Lava-scarred Reykjanes peninsula lies on one of the world's major plate boundaries, the Mid-AtlanticRidge. According to the continental drift theory, the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates are continuously drifting apart with great forces under the gaping rifts. As the plates diverge, linear fractures, known as fissures form due to stresses are created by the tension that builds up as the plates move away from each other.
The bridge between two continents at Sandvík is a small footbridge over a major fissure which provides clear evidence of the presence of a diverging plate margin.
The bridge was built as a symbol for the connection between Europe and North America. One can cross the continental divide on Leif the Lucky's Bridge and take home a personalized certificate at the Reykjanes Information Center as a conformation and a reminder of this spectacluar experience
The Bridge is a popular spot for tourists and photographers as well. It is a unique attraction that you will only find on the Reykjanes Peninsula. It has an rough volcanic landscape and is easy to access via car.

BCCI Units Apart Window In March 2023 For Inaugural Girls's IPL: Report | Cricket Information
Mumbai (Maharashtra) :
Board of Management for Cricket in India (BCCI) has put aside a window in March 2023 for the first-ever version of ladies's Indian Premier League (IPL) and the method to get the present on the highway is underway, as per board president Sourav Ganguly.
As per ESPNCricinfo, the board has made adjustments to its girls's home cricket calendar to make manner for ladies's IPL. The ladies's season that usually goes on from November to April has been superior by a month, with the season set to start on October 11 with T20 competitors and finish in February 2023 with an inter-zonal ODI competitors.
Since 2018, BCCI has been organising the Girls's T20 Problem. What began as a one-off exhibition match between two groups within the first season is now a three-team competitors. Many gamers from outdoors India have additionally joined the competitors. However regardless of this, the clamour to have a a lot larger competitors identical to males's IPL is rising amongst gamers and followers for some time.
Earlier in February this yr, Ganguly had acknowledged that the ladies's IPL can be held subsequent yr. "We're on the degree of formulation to have a full-fledged WIPL. It's actually going to occur. I strongly consider that subsequent yr i.e. 2023 will likely be an excellent time to begin a full-fledged girls's IPL which will likely be as large and grand successful as males's IPL."
Homeowners of IPL franchise Rajasthan Royals and Barbados Royals, The Knight Riders Group have expressed their curiosity in getting concerned within the event and proudly owning a girls's IPL group. The inaugural version of the ladies's Caribbean Premier League (CPL), which is scheduled to occur alongside the boys's event later this yr will characteristic three groups, together with Trinbago Knight Riders owned by Knight Riders Group.

BCCI is anticipated to carry a dialogue on issues associated to girls's IPL at its annual normal assembly in September this yr. A lot of the planning across the event will likely be round sale of its media rights.
Because of India's enhancing and nice performances at main ICC occasions over the latest years, the keenness for ladies's cricket in India is at a never-seen-before excessive. The most recent of those performances was the Girls in Blue clinching a silver medal within the recently-concluded Commonwealth Video games 2022 in Birmingham.
Furthermore, senior Indian gamers like Smriti Mandhana, Harmanpreet Kaur and former Indian skipper Mithali Raj have been supportive of the concept of ladies's IPL. Raj the truth is expressed a need to return out of retirement to take part within the event.
"I'm preserving that possibility open. I've not but determined. There are just a few extra months to go earlier than the Girls's IPL occurs. It will be beautiful to be a part of the primary version of the Girls's IPL," she had mentioned whereas talking on ICC's 100% Cricket podcast earlier in July.

Traci Callahan | she elevates her beach volleyball game and life with a second chance
Athlete, Business
What does it take to elevate your beach volleyball game?
Traci Callahan is my guest today and she is making a comeback to the highest levels of beach volleyball. My interview with Traci took some wild turns as she discussed her career as a professional beach volleyball player. She spoke about her struggles with bulimia in college and the need to switch schools even after a successful freshman year. She then started her professional beach volleyball career and had some success but not what she was hoping for. It's rare to have a professional athlete speak so openly about her struggles with weight loss, sexual assault and self doubt. After moving around a bit and even switching careers her husband, Matt, encouraged her to give beach volleyball another try and give it everything she's got.
She has learned to elevate her game and have gratitude for the people in her life. She is continuing to share her story and work ethic with local high school players as well as writing a book on how to get recruited for younger players.

NATHAN HEAD was in his 20s when he marched from Selma to Montgomery, Ala., in 1965. He still remembers the experience vividly and grows animated when he recalls the thousands of blacks and whites who came from every corner of the country to participate.
For Head and hundreds of other who reenacted the famous march last week, it was a time to look back with reverence and ahead with wariness.
Officially, the purpose of the walk, organized by the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), was to commemorate the march's 30th anniversary.
But it was also a rallying cry against the agenda of the new Republican-controlled Congress, which many blacks say is threatening to turn back the clock on the gains they've made in the last 30 years. They cite drives to roll back affirmative action, ''motor voter'' registration, and congressional redistricting.
''I see us making the same fight for the same kinds of things we fought for in the 1960s,'' Head says.
The march drew many high school students as well as veterans who walked in 1965. Flanked by blue-clad state troopers, they sang ''We shall overcome'' and carried signs and banners as they walked along Highway 80 toward Alabama's capital.
Marie Foster, a Selma native, was part of the group that made history on Bloody Sunday when Alabama state troopers used tear gas and billy clubs on the men, women, and children who attempted to cross the Edmund Pettus Bridge spanning the Alabama River.
On Friday, as the marchers followed Highway 80 into Montgomery, the sun shone brightly. Along the way, people stopped to watch and cars honked their horns in support.
The group paused for nearly a half-hour at a housing project to help people register to vote. Their last stop that day was St. Jude's Educational Institute, the school that had housed the 1965 civil rights marchers before they converged on the Alabama State House.
This time, George Wallace, the one-time staunch segregationist governor who had vowed to stop the marchers 30 years ago, was there to welcome the group. Sitting in a wheelchair on the school's steps, he and Joseph Lowery, president of the SCLC, clasped hands as photographers hovered like bees a few feet away.
''You're a different George Wallace today.... You have come a long way, and we have come a long way,'' the Rev. Mr. Lowery said.
Life for blacks in Alabama has come a long way as well. Alabama boasts more elected blacks to political office than does any other state, according to Democratic state Sen. Hank Sanders. But that number is still only about 17.5 percent of the total number of elected officials.
But Etta Smith Perkins, a registered nurse from Selma, says that while blacks have made progress in Selma, many things still haven't changed there. ''We need a change in the mayor,'' she says.
Selma Mayor Joe Smitherman, who was a white segregationist when he ran the city in 1965, is still at the helm, although he long ago renounced his segregationist views.
Ms. Perkins says a number of black candidates, including her son, have run against Mr. Smitherman.
The reason why he's been reelected in the majority black city, Perkins says, is that not enough blacks have come out to vote in elections -- and those who did vote ended up splitting their votes among several black candidates.

"Effect of Distillers Grains Fat Level on Digestibility" by Mark E. Corrigan, Galen E. Erickson et al.
Four steers were used in a three-period switchback design to determine effects of dry distillers grains fat level on digestibility. Forage based diets were supplemented with distillers grains with differing fat levels (6.9% or 13.3 % dry matter). Intake and digestibility of DM and organic matter did not differ between treatments. Neutral detergent fiber intake was less and digestibility tended to be less in steers supplemented with high fat distillers grains. Differences in fiber type and intake as well as fat intake may be responsible for the small difference in neutral detergent fiber digestibility.

NASA's first Landing Sites/Exploration Zones Workshop for Human Missions to the Surface of Mars will be held Oct. 27-30 at the Lunar and Planetary Institute in Houston.
The agency is hosting the workshop to collect proposals for locations on Mars that would be of high scientific research value while also providing natural resources to enable human explorers to land, live and work safely on the Red Planet.
The first human explorers on the journey to Mars are expected to be quite mobile, with the ability to explore long distances from their habitat, a region being called an "Exploration Zone." In current planning activities, NASA assumes an Exploration Zone radius of approximately 60 miles.
NASA plans to use existing assets at Mars, such as the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter and the Odyssey spacecraft, to support the selection process of potential Exploration Zones. However, the life expectancy of MRO and Odyssey are limited. NASA is eager to take advantage of the remaining operational years of those Martian imagers to gather high resolution maps of potential Exploration Zones while the spacecraft remain operational.
Because of limited capacity, in person attendance is limited to registered workshop participants.
For more information on NASA's journey to Mars, visit http://www.nasa.gov/journeytomars.


Capital of South Korea and one of Asia's hidden gems, Seoul is a fascinating mix of ancient tradition and sparkling modernity. From visiting Confucian shrines to admiring the views from inside the city's soaring skyscrapers and sampling authentic Korean cuisine, there are so many things to do in Seoul you won't know where to start. This is a vibrant city which more than 10 million residents call home. So pack your walking shoes, grab a guidebook and book your flights to Seoul to explore all this fascinating metropolis has to offer.
Perhaps the most famous of Seoul's 5 Joseon Dynasty-era palaces is Gyeongbokgung in the north of the city. First built in 1395, the vast complex has been destroyed and rebuilt several times throughout its storied history. Gyeongbokgung is located north of the Han River in the Gangbuk part of the city, which is also where you'll find traditional 'hanok' houses lining the streets of Bukchon. South of the river is the modern Gangnam region of Seoul, where most of the city's tallest skyscrapers are located. Though Gangnam is renowned for its modernity, it's also where you'll find Bongeun Temple – the most visited temple in Seoul.
Seoul restaurants may not be the easiest to understand but persevere and your tastebuds will be rewarded with some of Asia's tastiest food. For the budget conscious, Sadongmyenok in Insadong serves up 'manduguk' – a delicious soup full of dumplings packed with meat and vegetables. 'Bibimbap' restaurants are numerous and Jeonju Jungang Hoegwan specialises in the Jeonju version of the famous mixed rice dish. Seoul boasts plenty of places to drink, including the many student bars around Hongdae and Sinchon. Upmarket Apgujeong is the place to splash out on expensive cocktails, while raucous Itaewon rocks regularly to the sounds of Seoul's large foreign community.
The range of accommodation in Seoul is seemingly endless. If you're on a budget, both Jongno in the northeast of the city and Hongdae in the west offer a wide range of options, including the ever-popular Dustin Guesthouse near Hongik University. If you're determined to splurge, Seoul hotels oblige with some of the best high-end accommodation in the region. Try the Plaza Hotel near Seoul's City Hall for a relaxing stay in the heart of the action, or the Grand Hyatt Seoul to indulge in the opulent surroundings. The Sheraton Grande Walkerhill is a favourite with high rollers for its upscale casino.
Shopping in Seoul is a stimulus for the senses with the city boasting a multitude of outlets. There are permanent markets at Namdaemun and Dongdaemun, while traditional Insadong is the place to find the city's best antique and stationery stores. Fashion models pound the footpaths of Myeongdong to model the latest trends in store and it's here where you'll find Seoul's best clothes shopping. Seoul's most affluent residents do their shopping in Apgujeong at the luxury brand-name stores lining its crowded streets. Itaewon caters to the city's foreign community but it's also a great place to pick up some traditional Korean souvenirs, including 'hanbok' – a type of traditional Korean clothing.
Seoul weather is at its most pleasant in Spring and a popular pastime for locals and tourists alike is to pay a visit to Namsan Park. The leafy city park contains the 262-metre Mount Namsan, which is topped by familiar local landmark Seoul Tower. Many visitors take the Namsan Cable Car to the top of the mountain before enjoying lunch or dinner in the tower's rotating restaurant. The views are particularly spectacular at night, when the Seoul city skyline is showered with light from the thousands of skyscrapers and offices clustered around the fringes of the park.


Michigan has a 41% chance, the third highest - just above Georgia.
At 5%, Michigan State is ranked 13th highest. I don't know how far they'll go, but I think Michigan State WILL have a much better year this year than last. And, as somebody who briefly lived in Alabama and became a 'Bama fan, I'd still like to see somebody outside the SEC and ACC rise up and play in the title game next year. Even Michigan. That's not a slam, I'm serious. Anybody else.


In other words, $1 in 1915 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $24.86 in 2018, a difference of $23.86 over 103 years.
This chart shows calculation of buying power equivalence, often referred to as "the value of a dollar" over time for $1 in 1915 (price index tracking began in 1635).
Inflation can also vary widely by country. For comparison, in the UK £1.00 in 1915 would be equivalent to £100.14 in 2018, an absolute change of £99.14 and a cumulative change of 9,914.49%.
In Canada, CA$1.00 in 1915 would be equivalent to CA$20.76 in 2018, an absolute change of CA$19.76 and a cumulative change of 1,976.19%.
Compare these numbers to the US's overall absolute change of $23.86 and total percent change of 2,386.21%.
$1 in 1915 has the same "purchasing power" or "buying power" as $24.86 in 2018.
To help put this inflation into perspective, if we had invested $1 in the S&P 500 index in 1915, our investment would be nominally worth approximately $23,020.46 in 2018. This is a return on investment of 2,301,945.70%, with an absolute return of $23,019.46.
The compounding effect of inflation would account for 95.98% of returns ($22,093.57) during this period. This means the inflation-adjusted real return of our $1 investment is $925.89.
