    CASE ANNOUNCEMENTS AND ADMINISTRATIVE ACTIONS December 5, 2005 [Cite as 12/05/2005 Case Announcements #2, 2005-Ohio-6408.] MISCELLANEOUS ORDERS On December 2, 2005, the Supreme Court issued orders suspending 13,800 attorneys for noncompliance with Gov.Bar R. VI, which requires attorneys to file a Certificate of Registration and pay applicable fees on or before September 1, 2005. The text of the entry imposing the suspension is reproduced below. This is followed by a list of the attorneys who were suspended. The list includes, by county, each attorney’s Attorney Registration Number. Because an attorney suspended pursuant to Gov.Bar R. VI can be reinstated upon application, an attorney whose name appears below may have been reinstated prior to publication of this notice. Please contact the Attorney Registration Section at 614/387-9320 to determine the current status of an attorney whose name appears below. In re Attorney Registration Suspension : ORDER OF [Attorney Name] : SUSPENSION Respondent. : : [Registration Number] : Gov.Bar R. VI(1)(A) requires all attorneys admitted to the practice of law in Ohio to file a Certificate of Registration for the 2005/2007 attorney registration biennium on or before September 1, 2005. Section 6(A) establishes that an attorney who fails to file the Certificate of Registration on or before September 1, 2005, but pays within ninety days of the deadline, shall be assessed a late fee. Section 6(B) provides that an attorney who fails to file a Certificate of Registration and pay the fees either timely or within the late registration period shall be notified of noncompliance and that if the attorney fails to file evidence of compliance with Gov.Bar R.

For a detailed understanding of their reactivity, a knowledge of the fun- damental processes during chemical reactions is crucial. These primary processes involve correlated changes in spin state, molecular orbitals as well as the geometric structure of the reactant and occur on femtosecond (fs) time- and Angstr¨om(˚ A)˚ length scales. Using optical laser pump – X-ray spectroscopic probe techniques the aforementioned dynamics of solvated TM complexes can be tracked with 100-picosecond(ps)-resolution at synchrotrons and 100-fs-resolution at X-ray Free Electron Lasers (XFELs). Time-resolved (TR) hard X-ray absorption (XAS) and emission (XES) spectroscopy is exploited to site-selectively probe the optically induced changes in structure and molecular orbitals of TM complexes with high relevance for catalysis. A novel setup for TR XAS at PETRA III has been implemented, consisting of a repetition- rate-tunable synchronized MHz fiber amplifier laser and a data acquisition (DAQ) strategy which is capable of measuring multi-photon events with single photon resolution at MHz repetition rates.

    Thesis Influence of Hydrogen-bonding on dynamical properties of ionic liquids MORA CARDOZO, Juan Francisco Abstract Ionic liquids (ILs) are liquids composed entirely of ions, therefore they screen every charged perturbation and present ionic conductivity. Recent studies focus in particular on the so-called room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs), that are organic/inorganic salts with melting point or glass transition below 100 C, whose chemical-physics properties are greatly affected by their ionic character. The dissociation of molecules into ions gives origin to an interplay between multiple interactions such as Coulomb forces, dispersion forces and hydrogen bonding (HB). The latter is crucial for the structural organisation of the liquids, which furthermore is intertwined with proton conduction, a key feature for applications in electrochemical energy conversion devices. In this thesis we show how HB influences the structure, dynamics and proton conduction of prototypical ILs. Reference MORA CARDOZO, Juan Francisco.

Henderson, Ed.D. Places are essential to our existence as humans. Unfortunately, however, places can fade into the background of our lives, becoming taken-for-granted in our experiences of living. Being disconnected and remaining nonreflective about the places we inhabit and the lives we make with them is profoundly problematic, especially given the influence of the “crisis of modernity” (Ryan, 2011) and the schism it advances between mind, body, and environment. Consequently, there is an urgent need to educationally cultivate our awareness of places in the hopes of making a more livable future for ourselves and all beings.

Dying dog hair Hair dye is designed for humans, not for dogs. Chemicals in the dye can increase risk of chemical burns and skin irritaon. Some dogs can experience allergic reac7ons to the dye. Should the dog try to lick its coat during the process, toxic dye can be ingested, leading to nausea, vomi7ng, diarrhea and other more serious health issues. People dye their hair for cosme7c reasons. Dogs do not have this same need. Dog fashion Fashion trends date back to collars from the Egyp7an pre-dynas7c period. Photographs from the early 1900s show people dressing their dogs in human costumes. Dog fashion has become increasingly popular since 2011 with clothing choices available in a variety of designer styles.
