Coherence imaging by use of a Newton rings sampling function

We show that, with suitable optics in the arm of a Michelson interferometer, orthogonal galvo-scanning mirrors build a sampling function in the form of Newton rings when the two interferometer arms are matched. Using a low-coherence source, one can obtain transversal depth-resolved images. A fast display procedure using a storage oscilloscope was devised based on this method.

Problems with mutual wills:a study of probate practice

Legislation: Law of Property (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1989 (c.34) s.2 Case: Healey v Brown [2002] W.T.L.R. 849 (Ch D) Paper looks at the use of mutual wills in practice. An empirical survey of probate solicitors is carried out and the results analysed. Significantly most solicitors seem, unaware of the controversial ruling as regards mutual wills in Healey v Brown and the impact of S.2 Law of Property Miscellaneous Provisions Act 1989 where land is concerned. Unsuprisingly the survey demonstrates that mutual wills are not commonly used and tend to be avoided by practising solicitors.

Utopia, A Must: A Review Essay on Benjamin Kunkel’s Utopia or Bust

Utopia or Bust, more than many foundational alternatives, forcefully though with non-sectarian wisdom, re-implants the notion of utopia to the front-of-the-line of Left theory (whether economic, geographic, political, social, and/or cultural). Kunkel's introductory survey reminds us through Harvey, among others, that “Utopia exists and that other systems, other spaces, are still possible."
