Kid Update
Here's a few updates about our boys...
Eden is enjoying his Montessori school. He will turn four in July. He has SO MUCH ENERGY! He's exhausting to chase around all day, but it's so amazing to see how alive he is. He makes the most of life and enjoys every moment.
Eli is working on sleeping through the night (still). He's doing great though. He's healthy, happy, and very laid back. We call him our little koala. He is crawling so fast now and really starting to pull himself up. He's such a beautiful boy.
This kiddos are amazing. They are both very healthy and are so lovable. Here's a few pics for you to enjoy.
Stock engineer is better on offense than defense
(Note: This article was co-written with SilverAlen, and it was originally his observation. Thanks Alen!)
The key here is “stock” Engineer, but after some time playing him I’ve noticed that he’s honestly more important to his team on offense than defense. At least on pubs. Why? Hear me out!
If engineer is on a dedicated offensive team, enemies are less likely to push and less likely to destroy his nest. Even when they do, they usually do not prioritize him. Defensive teams tend to use the Kritzkrieg or Quick-Fix, so you are less likely to get ubers. Spies will typically target your team’s medics, not your...

Plus, game modes with dedicated offenses and defenses are naturally slow. The sheer number of players and amount of spam coupled with one team’s stated goal to simply hold a line combine to make Engineers an obvious boon on both sides. But coordination and teamwork are often in short supply. This means that it is quite...
Then there’s the teleporter. The teleporter degrades in usefulness on a defense-dedicated team, especially when most maps will grant them migrating spawn points so they’re always pretty close to the contested point. By the end, when defending last, there’s almost no reason to build teleporters because you spawn within ...
Just imagine how this team would be doing without that teleporter.
Just imagine how this team would be doing without that teleporter. Thanks engy!
Engineers use on offense is just more indirect than on defense, which is possibly why people overlook it. Being able to get your team to the front line, heal your team’s medic (plus other teammates if needed), and provide a somewhat safe fallback location are great boons. But the biggest one is that it offers a much sa...

How Fingerpicking Is Like Handwriting
Fingerpicking can become like an old friend.  Over time, a person's style comes out in the way they play; every artist has a personal flare that flavors their art, and avid fans of the artist even recognize the flare as belonging to that artist when it's seen or heard in their work, like a Norman Rockwell look or like ...

Magnetic energy, equation
1. Aug 27, 2010 #1
I was reading an article, and it said that the total free energy of the system in an external magnetic field H can be written as:
F= 0.5 * χe^(-1) * Me^2 + 0.5 * χl^(-1) * Ml^2 - Jeff*Ml*Me - (Ml+Me)H
Where Ml and Me denote the magnetization for the local moment and electron subsystem. J_eff is the magnetic exchange coupling between them. H is the applied field and χl and χe the susceptibilty of the system (local moment/electrons)
I don't understand where this expression comes from. I start out with U=-M*B, but I cannot seem to get to the right answer. The first two terms of the right hand site of the equation from the paper are mysterious to me, and I would expect a mu_zero to show up somewhere.
Can anybody please give it a try? It shouldn't be that hard I would say. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

Do you have a link to the paper?
4. Aug 29, 2010 #3
Agreed, could we obtain more details about what it specifically models, and a link to the paper? I just took a statistical mechanics course, and deriving results like this can be pretty trying in fact, at least to me they were. Specifically, I remember the course covering topics related to the free energy of a syst...
Recall though that the free energy dF = dU - TdS - SdT (or, however you wish to manipulate it), there are more terms included other than the internal energy U. You may have been pursuing this route, but I thought I would point out that free energy is not the same thing as internal energy (U), on the off-chance that...

The Benefits of a Senior Life Insurance Policy.
It is advisable to have life insurance because it helps to cover you and your family.

The policy covers their clients until their time of death after which the beneficiaries get compensated.

The most immediate advantage is that you are allowed to have a life insurance policy regardless of if you are old and sick.

Additionally, the premiums contributed earns interest and so the lump sum received is higher than the actual investment making it profitable. Having a senior insurance allows to be covered, and you also get to save and earn from the policy. When you get the funds from the insurance policy; they will not be taxed on inc...
Another advantage is that the funds from the policy cannot be used to pay any debts as they protected against any creditors. This protection helps the family to be comfortable as they can use the funds for their needs instead of paying off debts.
Furthermore, there are life policies that allows you to cash out some of the money to cater for your senior care and assisted living facility expenses. This helps to ensure that the insured senior lives comfortably until their last time. The money can also be used to cater for your funeral expenses. This gives your fam...
