DCM is a good system to use, as noted by Suxamethonium. There was actually a question about this here not long ago (IIRC), I'll see if I can find it. Edit: http://www.sciencefo...eine-synthesis/

Because it was severely in violation of section 2.3 of the forum rules. I have sent you a PM regarding this.

! Moderator Note Moving this to speculations. Clumsygirl, be aware that this forum has additional rules that you need to comply to. That means you can't evade questions.

Let me introduce you to something: http://scholar.google.com Inserting "CdS CIGS thin film" into the search bar gives: http://scholar.google.com.au/scholar?hl=en&q=CdS+CIGS+thin+film&btnG=&as_sdt=1%2C5&as_sdtp= Try Googling things a bit more next time.

! Moderator Note pmb, Please stop derailing the thread. If you wish to discuss it, you know what to do.

Aethelwulf has been permanently banned upon his own request.

! Moderator Note Just an FYI for zapatos and anyone else who read the post by sumonchy: the user was flagged as a spam account and so all their posts have been removed from view.

! Moderator Note pmb and juan, Seriously, the personal snipes have to stop. Staff are getting a bit tired of having to babysit the threads you two participate in together and having to warn you both about making personal remarks. Tip: if you can't address the content of the posts without making it in some way personal, might I suggest that you simply don't respond. If you can't do this, you will be facing disciplinary action. Also, Aethwulf, the same goes for you.

! Moderator Note I'm not sure that coming back from your break with the same melodramatic nonsense is really the way to go, Aethelwulf. I'm closing this pending staff review.

What do you think? What level organic chemistry have you studied up to?

Alright, well you need to help us out here and tell us what specifically you're not getting about the mechanisms.

! Moderator Note Moved to homework. Inockohldo, we don't give answers here but we are willing to help you out if you're struggling to figure out concepts, etc. I have to ask if you actually bothered Googling any of those tests? Honestly, you could get your answers in 5 minutes if you had.

Another way to at least get some indication might be by looking into the roots of his last name, as well as by asking someone familiar with the art of geneology. This being said, tracing ancestry back using the processed adopted by a geneologist is quite a long process (requesting census data, birth records, etc., is apparently quite a pain) and so may not be worth it if you're looking for a quick answer. At the very least, the last name should give you a clue. By looking at my own last name, one half I know can be traced back to Normandy and later Scotland and the other half is a common last name given to Romani (and other) migrants from France into the UK. My grandmother (who dove into geneology after she retired some 15 years ago) has managed to trace almost everything on my mother's side and most of the family line on my father's side to about as far as records go. It's one of those areas you don't dare ask about unless you're both incredibly bored and have a lot of time.

So in other words, you put faith in their opinions as being correct? I think you are confusing blind faith (the type many religious folks use) with regular ol' faith (the type I place in my doctor when I ask him if I'm dying or not).

! Moderator Note paradigm, For the last time. Keep the speculations and your own pet theories out of other threads. And please stop trying to advertise your essay.

! Moderator Note Pymander, Plagiarism is absolutely not acceptable here. If you intend to use the work of somebody else in your posts, 1.) do not make it the sole content of your post and 2.) you have to credit your sources. Please review our rules and ensure that you observe them in future. I will be checking your other posts for plagiarism. And for the benefit of those who would like to check the citations: PDF file.

! Moderator Note Paradigm, Unless this has a point, I'm going to have to close the thread. We don't appreciate members creating threads solely to drive traffic off-site, nor do we appreciate soap boxing. Please could you tell us the questions you would like to discuss and let the discussion go from there.

! Moderator Note HerbertSu, This really doesn't belong in book talk, so I'm moving it to Speculations. Please be aware that there is an additional set of rules for this forum, on top of the rules you should already be aware of. Happy posting!

After extensive staff discussion, we've decided to make this week a two-for-one and suspend pmb as well.

! Moderator Note paradigm, I refer you to my previous mod note, found here. In keeping with that note, I am removing your posts and the replies in this thread on the basis of rule 2.10 (linked in the above mod note). Please do not derail threads with your speculations in future. Again, if you would like copies of the posts, please PM me and I will send copies of them to you.

! Moderator Note paradigm, This is not a speculations thread, nor is it the place to air your own personal beliefs on astronomy and cosmology. I refer you to our forum rules, specifically rule 2.10, which states that: ! Moderator Note In accordance with this, staff would appreciate you did not post in the manner you have been in this thread. As well, I have removed the posts in question (and subsequent replies) so as not to confuse it with the actual topic. In addition, I realise that it can sometimes be quite annoying to lose posts you have put time and effort into and so I would be more than happy to send transcripts of your posts through PM if you wish to use them or keep them for whatever purpose (please let me know via PM if this is the case). If you wish to start a thread with your own ideas and speculation, you are most welcome to do so in the Speculations forum, found here. Please be aware that this forum also has an additional set of rules that you will be asked to comply to, should you choose to post there. If you would like to discuss this mod note, please do so via PM or by using the report feature (the button on the bottom left of each post) to alert your grievances to staff.

! Moderator Note Your link appears to be broken. Before you edited it, you seemed to be trying to link to this picture: ! Moderator Note Your new link comes up as broken and then when I try to fix it, forbidden. If the above picture is what you were after, I'm happy to edit your post to fix it. In future, make sure that you click through to the actual image URL rather than the Google preview (there is a button on the right hand side) and copy that link. Also, a small language warning. This is supposed to be a family friendly site, so keep the profanities to a minimum. Thanks

! Moderator Note Let's not go back down the road of talking about mothers. AW, if you don't wish to discuss it, please don't bring it up in threads.

! Moderator Note Phenom415, If this is derived from some news source, it is necessary for you to post where you getting your information from.
