Tree foliage obscures the scene in the lower left hand corner, beyond which the three-story multileveled Temple Building is visible, the clock tower extending from the center of its roof reading approximately five minutes to one o'clock. Horse-drawn carriages stand to the right in front of one of the building's broad sides, the second floor of which has a balcony. Signs also advertise, painted on the side: "E.B. Frink & Co. Real Estate Agents" and "Wolfenstein's Photographic Gallery.".

title: XMCD study of epitaxial 2D ferromagnets

description: The field of 2D ferromagnets is rapidly growing as in the last decades scientists have been learning how to master their synthesis with improved accuracy. Epitaxial methods allow precise control on the number of layers, favor the stabilization of different phases and allow magnetic coupling with specific substrates. All these variables make possible a variety of magnetic behaviors different from the bulk, whose mechanism needs to be understood. Here we want to study spectroscopically some few-layer thick epitaxial films recently obtained at Grenoble CEA in one of the SPINTEC groups, and exhibiting interesting magnetic properties, as already observed by SQUID. The materials which are the object of this in-house experiment ate 1) chromium ditelluride (CrTe2), 2) iron germanium ditelluride doped with Co (Fe(5-x)Ge(x)Te2) and 3) chromium diselenide (CrSe2).

title: J. Phillip Erie driving Boyle Workman at Hollenbeck Park in a self-built automobile, 1897

description: Photograph of J. Phillip Erie driving Boyle Workman at Hollenbeck Park in a self-built automobile, 1897. Mr. Erie, the mechanic, sits at the helm in a suit and a brimmed hat, steering the tall, boxy automobile with a stirrup-handle while tending the side break-lever. The wheels are spoked and seem to bow out in the front. Mr. Workman, the son of Los Angeles civic leader, William H. Workman, sits in the back seat wearing a long overcoat and dark hat. Trees are visible in the background.; "Postscript [part 1 of 2]: Auto first hit Los Angeles in 1897 and it's still picking up speed. Wary of crowds, they chose a Sunday at 2 a.m. for the test. They pushed the contraption out of a West 5th Street garage and maneuvered it down a long alley to Broadway. The engine was fired up, eight people climbed in, and at the twist of a lever, the first automobile ever seen in Los Angeles chugged off. That was May 30, 1897 -- 80 years ago. It was a signal event, kicking off an automobile culture that Los Angeles would, in the best and worst of ways, come to symbolize. Two years earlier, J. Philip Erie, a wealthy New Yorker who had moved West for his health, had come up with his idea for a 'motorcarriage.' Erie took out 30 patents and spent $30,000 in pursuit of his dream, and for months he and S.D. Sturgis labored over the machine. The trial run of the four-cylinder, gasoline-powered vehicle 'was a gratifying experience in every way,' The Times reported the next day."; "Postscript [part 1 of 2]: Not only did the 20-mile 20 mile-per-hour automobile cross 'car tracks and chuckholes innumerable without any trouble,' it did not even scare horses along the route, as had been feared. But the 'Erie' auto, despite its early rave reviews, was 'not really terrifically successful,' according to James Zordich, associate curator of the automobile history collection at the Los Angeles County Natural History Museum. The first production car built here was the Tourist. A two-cylinder, four-passenger model, the Tourist was built, beginning in 1902, by the Auto Vehicle Company at its North Main Street factory. It was soon being sold by dealers throughout the state. But financial woes set in, and in 1910 the factory closed. Automobiles by then, however, were firmly entrenched in Los Angeles, and the city already was wrestling with the problem of crowded downtown streets. By 1915, with 55,217 cars spread among its 750,000 inhabitants, Los Angeles County led the world in per capita auto ownership. It still does. Now, 80 years after Erie revved up for that first ride down Broadway, there are 5 million vehicles in the country." -- Dale Fetherling, Los Angeles Times, May 30, 1977.
