Hmm I'd like to see more details - anyway it would be a 2s (not 1s) and a 2p orbital that were imaged, but Carbon has 2 electrons in a 2s orbital and 2 electrons in 2 different 2p orbitals so why do these images look the way they do? Shouldn't all the orbitals be overlapping? It sounds like they did some sort of excitation - so maybe we are seeing a higher level excited electron orbital - which means that maybe it would be a 3s or 3p?
That's why you should always setup an alternate login with Administrator access. I never use the actual admin login myself - still, I just did the upgrade.
They based a Law & Order episode on this premise. 2 out of 3 guy need to log in - 1 gets killed, the other was out camping... Multiple murder hilarity ensues
The professor wants everyone to have the same book because the assigned problems will likely come from the text - new version means a few new questions and reordering of older questions.
If someone wants to use an older version it should be fine - as long as they are willing to check with a classmate for changes and updates.
I teach the Chemistry portion of a physical science course - and the students can get the used version for 10 bucks through Amazon or buy it new for $100+ from the bookstore.
However, for advanced classes where things change constantly they have to shell out more even the background doesn't change much. But, 20 - 30% of the content relies on new advances in many advanced Chemistry text, so there are significant changes every 4 to 5 years.
Even so, if a student wants to use an older version that's fine with me - but they are responsible for all the material in the newer version.
I already donate money to the poor. It's called taxes. Just because the government uses Tax dollar to help the poor - DOES NOT mean YOU give to the poor. Sure a FEW bucks of your tax dollars go that way - unfortunately this is the sort of logic that lets people off when they see others in need.
If you really want to help then shell out some real dough - don't hide behind a bloated government that spends to much money on crap.
Your station should try to go non-commercial. If you are at a college station it would likely be more ideal AND many of your advertisers could continue to support you through underwriting. It would probably make things cheaper as well - of course if you have a lot of paid staff it might be difficult.
Many of the legal issues would be simpler - and they MAY cut you a bit more slack. The FCC has tended to in the past, but who knows for sure.
FWIW: You can not enforce a patent until it is actually approved. So other people can go ahead and develop similar things, sell, and market them - and there is nothing you can do besides issuing them a stern letter from a lawyer.
Now, once you get the patent it is a different story. You can sue and either get money ("forced" licensing) or get the other guys to stop. Of course the defendants will claim that the patent covers something obvious and try to get the patent overturned.
Of course what is obvious now, may not have been so in 1999 or whenever Apple started selling iPods/using iTunes - so it will be fun to see what happens.
Couple hundred years? Hardly!
Just 30 years ago people were clamoring about Global COOLING! They were afraid of the impending Ice Age - All backed up by credible Scientists. Now if you want to average annual increase/decrease over the last hundred years and say there is a trend, that is an entirely different can of worms.
So the "Independent Scientists" for Greenpeace got the Monsanto data and reanalyzed it and say there are significant biological differences (which is different from statistically significant). The only definite conclusion though I can find is that rats should not subsist entirely on this genetically modified corn.
These guys were con artists and should be fined severely, but couldn't more of that money have gone to the people who were duped? Then again the people who wrote the law were probably lawyers and needed to make sure they could have something to gain.
Comparing the wavelength of X-rays to Microwaves is like saying an amoeba is smaller than an elephant.
These millimeter waves would be at the extreme end of Infrared or very beginning of microwaves.

Actually, even SSN are not 'unique'. They try and keep it unique for each generation, but they've already started reusing numbers.
SSNs are not currently re-used. They may potentially be reissued but we are talking 50+ years from now. See http://www.ssa.gov/history/hfaq.html

Cyanogen is (CN)2 - Thats 2 Carbons and 2 Nitrogens. Cyanide is a CN- ion.
The Carbon2 and Carbon3 appear to be general classes of compounds containing 2 Carbons and 3 Carbons - not a specific molecule or isotope.
