This report summarizes the results of the Illinois Education Research Council’s (IERC) survey with Illinois principals conducted in November 2010. The purpose of the survey, and of this report, is to help researchers, policymakers, and practitioners better understand the work that Illinois principals do and their preferences and priorities regarding this work. We received responses from 877 par...

Polypyrrole@platinum (PPy@Pt) composite film was successfully synthesized by using a one-step electrochemical method and served as counter electrode (CE) for efficient dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The PPy@Pt CE with one-dimensional structure exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity and superior charge transfer resistance for I(-)/I3 (-) electrolyte after being the cyclic voltammetry...

Dans cet article, nous présentons une méthode robuste et précise pour détecter 17 points caractéristiques du visage sur des images expressives. Une nouvelle architecture multi-résolution basée sur les récents algorithmes multinoyau est introduite. Les patches de faibles résolutions codent les informations globales du visage donnant lieu à une détection grossière mais robuste du point désiré. Le...

Two new cyclometallated platinum(II) complexes have been prepared that incorporate a terdentate N^C^N-coordinating ligand and a monodentate acetylide co-ligand. The complexes, namely [PtL– C^C–C6H3F2] and [PtL 6–C^C–C6H3F2] (where HL 3 1⁄4 5-methyl-1,3-di(2-pyridyl)benzene; HL 1⁄4 5-mesityl-1,3-di(2-pyridyl)benzene; H–C^C–C6H3F2 1⁄4 3,5-difluorophenylacetylene), were prepared by ligand metathes...
