    Did the paper on eagles at the Ventana Ranch ever get published? If so, could I get a copy?

  2. I believe there may be errors in the article, “Applications of Magnetoelectric Materials for Solid-State Devices.” On page 3, the definitions for “displacive” and “order-disorder” ferroelectrics are switched. Throughout the rest of the paper the terms continue to be used in place of one another. A displacive ferroelectric is one in which an ion is displaced slightly, resulting in polarization. An order-disorder ferroelectric is one in which dipoles are either ordered or randomly disordered depending on the temperature. Both definitions can be inferred from the names and are correctly defined online or by other sources.

    On the same page, it is stated that the term “hysteresis” is derived from the same root as the word “history.” This webpage: link, states that there is”no etymological link between hysteresis and either hysterical (fr. L hystericus of the womb) or history (fr. Gk, inquiry, history, fr. histor, istor knowing, learned),” but rather, the term is linked to “Gk hysteresis shortcoming, fr. hysterein to be late, fall short, fr. hysteros later.” This is confirmed by the Merriam-Webster online dictionary.

    Please correct me if I am wrong. I hope that these corrections may be helpful in any future use of the paper or issue of BSJ.

  3. Hey, you used to write amazing, but the last couple of posts have been kinda boring I miss your tremendous writings. Past couple of posts are just a little out of track! come on! fedekeedgdcd

  4. I have learn several good stuff here. Certainly worth bookmarking for revisiting.
    I surprise how a lot effort you put to make such a great informative web site.

  5. If some one desires expert view about blogging and site-building after that i suggest him/her to go to see
    this website, Keep up the nice job.

  6. It’s genuinely very difficult in this busy life to listen news on TV, therefore I simply
    use world wide web for that reason, and obtain the hottest information.

  7. A motivating discussion is definitely worth comment.

    I believe that you ought to publish more about
    this issue, it may not be a taboo matter but usually people don’t speak about these subjects.
    To the next! All the best!!

  8. I have learn a few good stuff here. Certainly price bookmarking
    for revisiting. I surprise how a lot attempt you set to create the sort of magnificent informative website.
