The CCRI Lady Knights soccer team traveled to La Plata, Maryland this past Saturday to take on the Hawks of the College of Southern Maryland to open the 2013 season. The Lady Knights lost to the Hawks 2-0. With the loss the Lady Knights begin the season 0-1.
The Hawks from Southern Maryland came out strong and hard right from the opening kickoff and dominated most of the play. Goalkeeper and Tri-Captain Alex Place (East Greenwich, RI) kept the Hawks at bay by making some spectacular saves including a penalty kick keeping both teams scoreless at the halftime break.
In the second half the Hawks came out strong once again continuously sifting through the Lady Knights' defense creating multiple quality scoring chances but Place came-up huge keeping CCRI in the game. The Hawks finally broke the ice when they scored on a breakaway in the 23rd minute of the second half by sophomore forward Alysse Houston. Just two minutes later the Hawks freshman Laura Shaner scored yet on another breakaway giving Southern Maryland a commanding 2-0 advantage. However, the Lady Knights never gave up and began to pressure the Hawks coming up with some quality scoring opportunities of their own but they just could not get on the scoreboard with the game ending in victory for Southern Maryland.
Head Coach Dennis Grassini commented after the game "They had us back on our heels right from the start today and we were totally out of sync defensively. They are no doubt a very deep and talented team. We just couldn't seem to generate any offensive chances until the last 20 minutes of the match. Alex Place was just tremendous in goal for us today. Sophomore Tri-Captain Betti Worth was also outstanding today but the Hawks were the better team."
The Lady Knights have no time to rest as they will travel to Bel Air, MD to face the Fighting Owls of Harford Community College Sunday at 12:00noon.
The Community College of Rhode Island, New England's largest comprehensive community college, enrolls nearly 18,000 students in credit courses and thousands more in non-credit and job training classes. Its athletic program boasts 12 varsity programs and an academic support program for all student-athletes.

China must sharply improve environmental protection or it could face disaster following two decades of breakneck growth that have poisoned its air, water and soil, the country's top environmental official warned Saturday. The director of the State Environmental Protection Administration said that more than half of China's 21,000 chemical companies are near the Yangtze and Yellow rivers - drinking water for tens of millions of people - and accidents could lead to "disastrous consequences."
"Facts have proved that prosperity at the expense of the environment is very superficial and very weak," Zhou Shengxian said at a news conference during the annual meeting of China's parliament. "It's only delaying disaster."
China's cities are among the world's smoggiest and the government says its major rivers are badly polluted, leaving hundreds of millions of people without enough clean drinking water. Protests have erupted throughout the country over farmers' complaints that uncontrolled factory discharges are ruining crops and poisoning water...

China faces immense costs from coal
[quote]China is the king of coal. It is the world's biggest producer and consumer but this reliance on coal is costing the country dear. For the first time top Chinese economists have calculated just how much this love affair with coal is costing the nation.
Last year environmental and social costs associated with China's use of coal came to RMB1.7 trillion – that's about 7.1 percent of the nation's GDP for the same year.
This staggering amount was calculated by China's top economists in The True Cost of Coal, a new report commissioned by Greenpeace, the Energy Foundation and WWF.[/quote]

State of China ecosystems terrible
Warnings and evidence of environmental disaster continue emerging; yet real action to reverse declines remains lacking. [Not that the planet as a whole is in great state by any means; China just more rapacious in devouring its environment than many a country.] For instance:
Environment Minister Zhou Shengxian said conflict between development and nature had never been so serious.
He said if China meant to quadruple the size of its economy over 20 years without more damage, it would have to become more efficient in resource use.
Otherwise, he said, there would be a painful price to pay.
China pollution 'threatens growth'
"The ecological situation is terrible," admits Xu Jun of the Ministry of Science and Technology. More than a quarter of China's grasslands, for instance, have been lost to farming and mining activities in the past decade, and 90% of the country's remaining 4 million square kilometres of grassland is in poor health. The grassland loss contributes to problems such as water shortages and sandstorms.
Coastal areas are under even greater pressure — from pollution, drainage and development. "Of all ecosystems, wetlands are the worst hit," says Yu Xiubo, an ecologist at the Beijing-based Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, part of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).

Most Chinese prioritize environment over economy
From results of a Gallup poll:
Fifty-seven percent of Chinese adults surveyed in 2011 -- before the country's economic slowdown grabbed headlines -- prioritized protecting the environment, even at the risk of curbing economic growth. About one in five believed economic growth is more important. Chinese attitudes are typical of those in other emerging-market economies, where residents sided with the environment over the economy in earlier surveys.
More Environmental Challenges Lie in Urban Areas
More than three in four (77%) Chinese are satisfied with current efforts to preserve the environment. Residents living in the urban areas, the hub of much of China's industrial activity, however, are significantly less satisfied than their rural counterparts with these efforts, as well as the quality of the air and water where they live. With good reason: The World Health Organization finds air pollution in Shanghai and Beijing is double or even triple the severity it is in London or Los Angeles. Further, China's Ministry of Environmental Protection finds groundwater at 57% of its monitoring sites in cities is polluted or extremely polluted.
China still lags behind developed countries in terms of efforts to protect the environment. At the same time, it is investing heavily in new energy sources and low-carbon technologies that could satisfy the substantial power demand from rapid urbanization while protecting the environment and reducing overreliance on coal.
Without aggressive strategies to combat pollution, China's environmental problems will likely only worsen as its urban areas continue to expand. Comprehensive urbanization policies that focus on conservation and the efficient use of natural resources such as energy, air, water, and land will be necessary to ensure the sustainability and quality of these resources in the future. On a regional level, cities such as Qingdao, Tianjin, and Shenyang are emerging as role models for urban economic and environmental development. They have all have shown leadership in developing best practices in successful green urban planning.
Majority of Chinese Prioritize Environment Over Economy

The poisoned earth
Back in 1984, Vaclav Smil warned of China's environmental troubles (much of which then "secret"; and most of which promptly denied, later acknowledged) in book titled The Bad Earth.
How apt the title now seems, given report in the Guardian that includes:
Nowhere is the global push to restore degraded land likely to be more important, complex and expensive than in China, where vast swaths of the soil are contaminated by arsenic and heavy metals from mines and factories.
Scientists told the Guardian that this is likely to prove a bigger long-term problem than air and water pollution, with potentially dire consequences for food production and human health.
Zhou Jianmin, director of the China Soil Association, estimated that one-tenth of China's farmland was affected. "The country, the government and the public should realise how serious the soil pollution is," he said. "More areas are being affected, the degree of contamination is intensifying and the range of toxins is increasing."
Other estimates of soil pollution range as high as 40%, but an official risk assessment is unlikely to be made public for several years.
Unlike in Europe where persistent organic pollutants are the main concern, Chen said China's worst soil contamination is from arsenic, which is released during the mining of copper, gold and other minerals. Roughly 70% of the world's arsenic is found in China – and it is increasingly coming to the surface with horrendous consequences.
Calls for a clean-up of the land are slowly gaining prominence. Huang Hongxiang, a researcher from the Institute of Agricultural Resources and Regional Planning, warned earlier this year that China needed to widen its focus from production volumes.
"If we don't improve the quality of farmland, but only depend on increasing investment and improving technology, then – regardless of whatever super rice, super wheat and other super quality crops we come up with – it will be difficult to guarantee the sustainable development of our nation's agriculture."
The clean-up begins on China's dirty secret – soil pollution

China and battle between consumers and conservers
Excellent, lengthy article by Jonathan Watts, reflecting on his nine years' reporting from China includes:
The mix of communist politics and capitalist economics appeared to have created a system designed to exploit people and the environment like never before.
This has been a decade of cement and steel, a time when economic development has pushed into the most remote corners of China with a series of prestige projects
This has been an era of protest in China. The government stopped releasing figures a few years ago, but academics with access to internal documents say there are tens of thousands of demonstrations each year. The reasons are manifold – land grabs, ethnic unrest, factory layoffs, corruption cases and territorial disputes. But I have come to believe the fundamental cause is ecological stress: foul air, filthy water, growing pressure on the soil and an ever more desperate quest for resources that is pushing development into remote mountains, deserts and forests that were a last hold-out for bio and ethnic diversity.
This is not primarily China's fault. It is a historical, global trend. China is merely roaring along the same unsustainable path set by the developed world, but on a bigger scale, a faster speed and at a period in human history when there is much less ecological room for manoeuvre. The wealthy portion of the world has been exporting environmental stress for centuries. Outsourcing energy-intensive industries and resource extraction have put many problems out of sight and out of mind for western consumers. But they cannot be ignored in China.
The worst problems are found in the countryside: "cancer villages", toxic spills, pitched battles to block a toxic chemical factory, health hazards from air pollution and water and the rapid depletion of aquifers under the north China plain – the country's bread-basket.
The implications are global. China has become the biggest greenhouse-gas emitter on the planet. This year, it will probably account for half the coal burned in the world. The number of cars on China's roads has increased fourfold since 2003, driving up demand for oil. Meanwhile, there is less and less space and respect for other species. For me, the most profound story of this period was the demise of the baiji – a Yangtze river dolphin that had been on earth for 20m years but was declared extinct in 2006 as a result of river traffic, pollution, reckless fishing and massive damming.
I switched my focus to environment reporting. It was not just the charismatic megafauna and the smog, though the concern about air quality never went away. It is really not funny to send your children off to school on days of high pollution with a cheery "Try not to breathe too much", knowing they will probably be kept in at break-times because the air outside is hazardous.
As I have noted at greater length elsewhere, I had come to fear that China may be where the 200-odd-year-old carbon-fuelled capital-driven model of economic development runs into an ecological wall. Britain, where it started, and China may be bookends on a period of global expansion that has never been seen before and may never be repeated again.
Developed nations have been outsourcing their environmental stress to other countries and future generations for more than two centuries. China is trying to do the same as it looks overseas for food, fuel and minerals to satisfy the rising demand of its cities and factories. This has been extremely good news for economies in Africa, Mongolia, Australia and South AmericaI sympathise with China. It is doing what imperial, dominant powers have done for more than two centuries, but it is harder for China because the planet is running short of land and time.
In the future, I believe the most important political division will not be between left and right, but between conservers and consumers. The old battle of "equality versus competition" in the allocation of the resource pie will become secondary to maintaining the pie itself.

Airborne particulates killing city dwellers
from Greenpeace:
Study on premature deaths reveals health impact of PM2.5 in China
Greenpeace calls for capping regional coal consumption
December 18, Beijing – An estimated 8,572 premature deaths occurred in four major Chinese cities in 2012, due to high levels of PM2.5 pollution, a joint study by Greenpeace East Asia and Peking University's School of Public Health has concluded. The report also estimates PM2.5 pollution caused the cities of Shanghai, Guangzhou, Xi'an and Beijing to suffer a combined total of US$1.08 billion in economic losses over the past year. Greenpeace is calling for an urgent policy adjustment, including capping regional coal consumption, De-NOx retrofiting for existing coal-fired power plants, and shutting down inefficient coal-fired industrial boilers.

China env protection ineffective with government above law
From Daily Telegraph, Jan 2013:
ProfessorQuGeping–whobecamethefirstdirectorof China'senvironmental protection agency in 1987 – told Hong Kong's South China Morning Post that greater accountability was needed for Beijing to win its war on pollution.
"I've always felt ill at ease whenever I was recognised for my contribution to China's environmental protection, because the country now faces so many environmental problems," Prof Qu said. "But looking back, there was not much more I could have achieved as an individual. Without actions from the whole government and without changing the system, nothing could be done.
"I would not call the past 40 years' efforts of environmental protection a total failure," added Prof. Qu, who is now 83 and has received a number of prizes for his work. "But I have to admit that governments have done far from enough to rein in the wild pursuit of economic growth and failed to avoid some of the worst pollution scenarios we, as policymakers, had predicted."
Speaking to the South China Morning Post, Prof. Qu blamed a lack of government accountability for China's current environmental predicament.
Asked why Beijing's attempts to reconcile rapid economic growth with environmental protection had not been effective, Prof Qu replied: "I think it is because there was no supervision of governments." "It is because the power is still above the law."

China clean up very hard and very costly
From article in the Economist:
If China were simply following the path of rich countries from poverty through pollution to fresh air, there would be little to worry about (unless you lived in one of those hellish cities). But the parallels fall apart, for two reasons. One is time. When Britain's industrial engine was gaining speed, levels of CO2 in the atmosphere were the same as they had been for millennia. Now they are half as high again, and not far off 450 parts per million, which most scientists think is the danger level. The other is place. China is so vast and its economy is growing so rapidly that its effect on the world is far greater than that of any other single country.
Dragon breath
The muck that spews from Chinese factories most immediately affects those unlucky enough to live nearby. In January 2013 the air of Beijing hit a level of toxicity 40 times above what the World Health Organisation deems safe. A tenth of the country's farmland is poisoned with chemicals and heavy metals. Half of China's urban water supplies are unfit even to wash in, let alone drink. In the northern half of the country air pollution lops five-and-a-half years off the average life.
Can China clean up fast enough?

China smog stunting crop growth
News item in South China Morning Post includes:
Worsening smog on the mainland is blocking natural light and could spell disaster for agriculture, scientists have warned.
He Dongxian, an associate professor with China Agricultural University's College of Water Resources and Civil Engineering, said an experiment in Beijing over recent months showed a drastic slowdown in the photosynthesis process, which allows plants to thrive.
Applied on a larger scale, such a slowdown could affect agriculture, which contributes 10 per cent to GDP. Farm output was likely to be affected by serious air pollution in winter and spring, with the prices of agricultural products expected to rise.

Air pollution maybe impacting brain development
From Business Week:
Air pollution led to genetic changes that may have sapped learning skills in children whose mothers were exposed to a Chinese coal-fired power plant before it was shuttered a decade ago, researchers found.
Babies born in the southwestern Tongliang county just before the plant was shut in 2004 had significantly lower levels of a protein crucial to brain development in their cord blood than those conceived later, a March 19 report in the Plos One journal said. They also had poorer learning and memory skills when tested at age two, the study by Columbia University and Chongqing Medical University found.
"I wasn't anticipating such a clear difference when we compared the first and second cohorts, and this shows how much of an impact effective policies can have on local populations," said Columbia's Deliang Tang, lead author of the report...

CAINE Live CD
|CAINE Live CD
|CAINE Project
|Live CD
|GPL, others
CAINE Live CD (Computer Aided Investigative Environment) is a forensic Live CD built on top of Ubuntu.
As of December 2009, the current version of Caine is 1.5. According to documentation, it is based on Ubuntu 8.04. Unlike the Helix project, Caine is free, freely redistributable, and open-source. CAINE 1.5 supports the Oxford 934dsb SATA chipset, used in (among other devices) the Voyager Q SATA dock from Newer Technologies.
Forensic Issues
- CAINE Live CD versions before 1.0 will automount Ext3 file systems during the boot process and recover them if required (bug in initrd scripts);
- Caine Live CD Version 1.0 introduced new mounting policies:
- The mounting policy for any internal or external devices adopted by CAINE: never mount automatically any device and when the user clicks on the device icon the system will mount it in read-only mode on a read-only loopback device.
- If a user decides to mount a device via terminal, he can use the "mount" command but all the mount options must be specified.
- The ext3 driver will be ignored when ext3 file systems are mounted and the ext2 driver used instead. This protects any ext3 file systems from a forensic point-of-view. Ext2 does not use journaling, so when an ext3 partition is mounted, there is no danger of modifying the journal metadata.
- Applying a special patch CAINE team fixed the bug that changed the journal of the ext3 file systems when the computer was switched off without by pulling the plug.
- Fixed in the fstab: forbidding the auto-mounting of the MMCs and put a control for the "exotic names" like /dev/sdad1.
- If the user wants to mount and write on an NTFS media should instead use the "ntfs-3g" command (e.g., $ sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/sda1).

The Sunnyside Community Library serves the area bounded by Skillman Ave. to the north, the Queens-Midtown Expressway to the south, 30th Street to the west, and 52nd Street to the east.
The community name of Sunnyside can be traced back to the 1800s, when the Bragaw family of settlers owned the Sunnyside Hill Farm in western Queens. By 1846 a community of houses, farms, and roadhouses had sprung up in the area north of Queens Boulevard. A railroad station built in 1850 was named the Sunnyside Railroad Station. The area still consisted largely of swamps and farmland until the early 1900s.
In 1902, the Pennsylvania Rail Road began buying up property in Sunnyside, leveling the land and filling in the swamps. In 1909 the Queensboro Bridge opened and in 1915 train service between Manhattan and Long Island City began. During the 1920s, Sunnyside experienced a construction boom in residential units following the expansion of the elevated Number 7 Train.
In 1924, construction began on Sunnyside Gardens, one of the nation's first planned communities. The community is located approximately two blocks north of Queens Boulevard between 43rd and 49th Streets. The planners' aim was to advance a Utopian vision by providing affordable, quality housing in beautiful surroundings for working class New Yorkers. In designing the community, architects Clarence Stein and Henry Wright adapted the English garden city model to an American urban environment. In 1974, the City of New York designated Sunnyside Gardens as a Community Preservation District. It continues to be regarded as an outstanding example of urban planning.
From the 1920s to the 1960s, Sunnyside was made up of predominantly Irish, Italian, and Jewish residents. Today it has become one of the most diverse neighborhoods in Queens. According to 2000 Census data, 61% of Sunnyside residents were born outside the United States. The top 10 countries of origin were Ecuador, Columbia, Korea, Mexico, Bangladesh, China, Dominican Republic, Romania, India, and Ireland.
The first public library facility in Sunnyside opened in 1933 at a location on Queens Boulevard. The Queens Library has been serving the Sunnyside community at its current facility since 1976. In 2009, the Sunnyside library reopened for service after the completion extensive renovations.
More information about the Sunnyside community is available from the following sources:
According to the American Cancer Society, approximately one of two American men and one of three American women will have some type of cancer at some point during their lifetime. Queens Library HealthLink seeks to increase access to cancer screening and cancer treatment among medically underserved communities in Queens. Queens Library HealthLink is a partnership between Queens Library, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, Queens Cancer Center of Queens Hospital and the American Cancer Society.

BENGHAZI, Libya (AP) — On her way back from her job as a lecturer at a university near Tripoli, Libyan poet Aicha Almagrabi was stopped by a group of bearded militiamen. They kicked her car, beat up her driver and threatened to do the same to her. Her offense: being alone in a car with men without a male relative as a guardian.
"You have violated the law of God," the militiamen told her, Almagrabi said.
"I said, I teach male students, so should I bring a male guardian with me to classroom?" she told The Associated Press.
Not that the university is immune to increasingly bold conservatives' views on the role of women. Almagrabi said one student recently told her she shouldn't be giving lectures because a woman's voice is "awra" — too intimate and shameful to be exposed in public.
The incident in February, which ended with the militiamen allowing Almagrabi to drive home, underlined the bitter irony for women in post-revolution Libya. Women played a major role in the 8-month civil war against dictator Moammar Gadhafi, massing for protests against his regime, selling jewelry to fund rebels, smuggling weapons across enemy lines to rebels.
But since Gadhafi's fall more than 18 months ago, women have been rewarded by seeing their rights hemmed in and restricted.
Women fear worse may yet to come. The country is soon to begin work drafting a new constitution, which activists fear will enshrine the relegation of women to second-class status, given the influence of hard-line Islamists.
"What we aim for right now is not to lose what we had," said Hanan al-Noussori, a lawyer in Libya's second biggest city, Benghazi. "I don't know which path we are heading in. But this is a matter of life or death for us."
Women can cite any number of worrying signs.
Libya's lawlessness is in part to blame. Islamist militiamen have grown more aggressive in unilaterally imposing their own rules on women. Militias, which were initially formed from rebel brigades that battled Gadhafi's troops, hold sway in many cities. They operate with impunity because, with national police and the army in a shambles, the state relies on them as parallel security forces. The state funds a security body made up of militias, trying to keep them loyal, but that has only made them larger and bolder.
More generally, the deeply conservative nature of much of Libyan society is being expressed more freely, often impinging on women. Powerful clerics speak out against the mixing of the sexes and Libya's political leaders themselves have set the tone for a more conservative stance on women.
Almagrabi says the opening salvo came right after Gadhafi's fall in late 2011, in one of the first addresses by then-head of state Mustafa Abdul-Jalil. He declared invalid all laws not conforming to Shariah and specifically vowed to end limits on polygamy. Islamic law allows men to take up to four wives, if they are treated equally, but under Gadhafi men had to get court permission and often permission from their first wife to do so.
"I felt like we were taken like spoils of war," Almagrabi said. "This nation rose up for the sake of the supremacy of the law and now there is a plan to push women back into their homes."
In February, the Supreme Constitutional Court consecrated Abdul-Jalil's announcement, formally ending any conditions on polygamy.
In 2012, at a televised ceremony celebrating the transfer of power to a newly elected parliament, Abdul-Jalil ordered a young presenter, Sarah al-Massalati, to leave the hall because she was not wearing a headscarf.
"We believe, respect and emphasize personal freedoms, but we are also a Muslim nation," Abdul-Jalil said at the time, to cheers from the audience. "I hope everyone understands these words."
Al-Massalati broke into tears. "I felt I was slaughtered," she later told Libyan media.
More recently, militiamen stormed a conference on women's rights and the constitution, held by Magdalene Ubaida and other women rights activists in Benghazi. The gunmen detained Ubaida and two of her colleagues. When they were released and heading to the airport to return to Tripoli, they were seized by more militiamen and beaten.
The incident came after one of the top security officials in Benghazi, Wanis el-Sharif, accused Ubaida of "spoling women" and criticizing Libya's top Muslim official, the grand mufti. The 25-year-old Ubaida, a co-founder of a rights organization called My Right, has since fled to Britain, saying she fears for her life.
The mufti, Sheik Sadeq al-Gharyani, took a hardline on women in a speech he delivered a year ago to a conference titled "the role of Muslim women in reconstruction."
"The state must put an end to the mingling of the sexes in the university, to close this door, this big door for corruption," he said. He urged school and university directors to start separating men and women without waiting for the state to order it.
He also cited a warning by the Prophet Muhammad that women who wear revealing clothing or don't cover their hair are "the people of hell."
Al-Gharyani is considered by some a hero of the revolution, since early on in the uprising against Gadhafi he issued a fatwa or religious edict permitting war against his regime.
Under Gadhafi's 42-year rule, women had a mixed bag.
Gadhafi often presented himself as a defender of women rights and at times made a point of defying strict interpretations of Shariah, since Islamists were among his main enemies.
Female lawyers say the country had one of the Arab world's most pro-women personal status laws, covering marriage, divorce and family law. Unlike Egypt and some other Arab nations, there is no "house of obedience" law by which courts can force women who flee their husbands to return. Women have children's custody rights after divorce.
Libyan society is generally conservative and tribal, and the majority of women wear headscarves. But at the same time, women make up a significant proportion of the work force, run their own businesses and were part of the armed forces. More women are pursuing postgraduate decrees than men.
But women lived under the same repressive regime as men under Gadhafi — and he often implicated women in regime abuses. He created a female security force of "nuns of the revolution," members of which participated in hangings of opposition figures in public or in extractions of confessions aired on TV.
Former aides have told lurid tales of Gadhafi's private life, reporting in books and interviews that he had young women brought forcibly to his Tripoli compound as sex slaves.
Women were prominent in the opposition to Gadhafi. For years, the mothers, sisters and wives of some 1,200 political prisoners massacred by the regime in the Abu Salim prison in 1996 held weekly protests at the security headquarters in Benghazi.
That eventually provided the spark for the revolution in February 2011. When one of the women's lawyers was arrested, they expanded their protest. When regime forces cracked down on them, the entire eastern half of Libya quickly rose up in revolt.
Since Gadhafi's fall, women's rights activists have seen at least one reassuring point. In the first free parliament elections last July, a liberal-leaning coalition came out the victors. The Muslim Brotherhood finished second while a party founded by a prominent jihadi-turned-politician got no seats. Women won 33 of parliament's 200 seats.
Now comes the drafting of the constitution. Rights activists worry that few if any women will be in the 60-member drafting assembly, which will be chosen either by national elections or by parliament.
There is also a consensus among all political parties, liberal and Islamist that the charter will enshrine Shariah as the main source of legislation and forbid any laws contradicting it. The last constitution Libya had — a 1951 charter that Gadhafi annulled — made no mention of Shariah.
Salwa Bugaighis, a rights lawyer, said debate over a Shariah clause is out of the question. "Shariah is a big taboo in Libya."
But she places her hopes on getting other articles into the document explicitly guaranteeing women's rights.
"We are fearful. We are worried and we are watching," she said.

Who is Edgar Cayce?
Edgar Cayce (1877-1945) was a gentle humanist who became the most documented psychic of all time. As a young man, Cayce discovered that he was able to enter into a self-induced sleep state and place his mind in contact with an unlimited Universal Source of information. While sleeping, he could answer questions and give discourses on any subject or topic, speaking with authority and using the correct medical terminology. Though he had only an eighth-grade education, the accuracy of his diagnoses and the effectiveness of the treatments he prescribed for the body, mind, and soul made him a medical phenomenon--the "Father of Holistic Medicine."
Eventually the scope of these impressive discourses, called Readings, expanded to include information and advice on a wide range of subjects including metaphysics, parapsychology, religion, meditation, dreams, reincarnation, psychic development, and prophecy of personal and world events.
Today Cayce is widely known through three major biographies: Edgar Cayce, An American Prophet by Sidney Kirkpatrick, There Is a River by Thomas Sugrue and Edgar Cayce: The Sleeping Prophet by Jess Stearn—and through scores of books about his work. Throughout his life he was guided by a deep and selfless sense of purpose to use his innate ability for the benefit of others.
"...in the doing for others there comes the answer to the problems for self, in every direction." –Cayce Reading 2174-3)

A fabulous Fox Glacier field trip
On our last visit to Fox Glacier we decided to empty the piggy bank and strike the 'Southern Alps flight' off the bucket list.
1 / 9
One of the joys of travelling has to be the gaining of knowledge you never knew you needed, and interest in topics that would have previously sent you to sleep. Take, for example, geology.
Take a trip anywhere in New Zealand and you can't miss them, the mountains, rivers, hot springs and suchlike, that signpost our position on the boundary of the earth's tectonic plates.
And if you possess even a little curiosity, you'll soon be asking when, why and how, and before you can say glittery schist you're borrowing 'Geology for Dummies' from your local library.
Further field trips are absolutely necessary, and of course they must take in the glorious Southern Alps.
To get up close to the wonders of Aotearoa's dynamic landscape, you can't go past the Fox and Franz Josef glaciers on the West Coast. These icy chutes plunge down from some of the highest peaks in the Alps, yet end only twenty or so kilometres from the sea.
Stand on Gillespie's beach – about 30 minutes' drive from Fox township – and the snow-capped peaks are still so close you'll just about get a crick in the neck from looking at them.
New Zealand's two largest mountains, Aoraki/Mt Cook and Tasman, can both be seen from Fox Glacier.
At 3754 and 3491 metres respectively, and surrounded by more than a dozen peaks over 3000 metres, it's hard to get a grasp of their magnitude.
We've seen them from both sides of the Divide (they can also be viewed from the southern end of Lake Pukaki), but we knew seeing them from the air would bring them into perspective.
On our last visit to Fox Glacier we decided to empty the piggy bank and strike the 'Southern Alps flight' off the bucket list.
It was the perfect day for what was an eye-popping ride. After zooming up the glacier and soaring over the ridge, the view expanded so rapidly we struggled to take it all in.
Soon we'd traversed the Tasman and Murchison Glaciers, and swung around to take in Cook and Tasman.
It's at this point that the superlatives run out, so let's just say, 'wow'. Landing on the perma-snow of the Liebig Ice Dome, we disembarked for the obligatory photo call on what is, for us, the closest we've ever come to the top of the world.
Our trip with Mountain Helicopters took only 30 minutes, but the memories (and the 100 or so photos we snapped) will stay with us for a lot longer.
This spectacular landscape can be appreciated from many other angles. The popular glacier hikes with Fox Glacier Guiding get you on to the ice, and are not nearly as intrepid as they sound.
There are also plenty of short walkways to suit every age and ability, including the Fox Glacier Valley Walk (one hour return) that gets you up close to the terminal face.
The other must-do from Fox Glacier is Lake Matheson, just five kilometres from town. Known as the 'mirror lake', thousands flock here every year to try and capture that perfect reflection of the mountains in the lake's dark waters.)
Your best bet for the money shot is early morning on a clear, windless day, although it's well worth visiting here at any time – there's a rewarding 1.5 hour loop walk, as well as a café and gift shop.
On the road to Lake Matheson you'll pass some of New Zealand's best budget accommodation. Seldom do million-dollar-views come so cheap as at the Fox Glacier Holiday Park and Motels.
Just two-minutes' walk from the quiet township of Fox, it's the 'rural' location that makes this place special. The grounds are spacious, sunny and open, affording grand views of the mountains, including a peak through to Cook and the shoulder of Tasman.
There's accommodation to meet every need, whether you're tenting or campervanning, or looking for a bed and a proper roof over your head.
Accommodation ranges from self-contained 'sunset view' motel units, to standard cabins with shared facilities. All have pleasant verandas and are freshly repainted in a natural shade of taupe that blends well into the surrounds.
Two large amenities blocks are scrupulously maintained and sympathetically decorated, the newer one clad in schist stonework. Built in 2007, this block is a cracker, being practical and hardwearing while still comfortable and attractive.
We love the patio off the kitchen with its splendid views. And we overheard more than one complimentary comment about the bathrooms! In fact, facilities-wise, our German friends declared this their favourite park after six weeks travelling in the South Island.
Campervans have hard-pads, with mini-lawns and picnic tables. The tenters, however, win the day.
The large camping field is dreamy, particularly so in the mellow of late afternoon when it basks in the last of the sun. Unfold your camp chair, fill up your wine glass, and wait… it won't be long before the keas fly out from the adjacent bush reserve to entertain you with their squawky antics.
Fox Glacier Holiday Park is memorable for many reasons and the manager, Linda, is one of them. Enthusiastic and fun, it was she who showed us the 'Out Foxing' guidebooks, which they produce to help visitors get the most out of their stay.
Easy to read and well illustrated, this excellent series of pamphlets offers insights into all the area's key natural attractions – helping you delve deeper into the when, how and why this area is unique. Unsurprisingly, it all comes back to geology…

The Good:
As a fairly inexperienced player I still found that these golf balls did seem to rocket off the face of my club especially off the tee.
The trajectory seemed lower than I usually hit and resulted in longer drives. On a summer trip to Cape Cod, I gave one of these balls to each of the players in my foursome to see what they thought of the ball.
Everyone felt they were hitting the ball farther and played that same ball all day long (unless an errant rip caused the unfortunate loss of one of these priceless gems).
Great but are they legal? Kasco Rockets are legal and conform to R&A and USGA Rules.
The Bad:
These balls are very pricey. You will find that most local golf stores don't stock these golf balls.
But if you can find them the prices range from $50 to $70 per dozen.
That can hurt your wallet if you still lose a lot of balls in a round.
These balls are worth a shot if you want to get greater distance off the tee without sacrificing feel. I don't know if it's
the "placebo effect" but everyone I have given one of these balls like them enough to keep using it throughout the round.
Since actions often speak louder than words, I still say I saw improvement when I played the Kasco Rockets.

Ben Affleck finally made it into the venerable "Five-Timers Club" when he hosted "Saturday Night Live" for the fifth time this weekend. When the 40-year-old actor discussed his memorable year as the director of award-winning film, "Argo," he asked Jennifer Garner, his wife of eight years, to help him explain his awkward "marriage is work" Oscars speech.
During his opening monologue Saturday night, Garner appeared on stage to jokingly reprimand Affleck for his poor choice of words.
"I'm not sure why you had to share it live to a billion people," Garner said.
"I would have said, 'Thank you to my wife, our marriage is a gift!'" she added.
While picking up his Academy Award for Best Picture in February, Affleck called his marriage to Garner "work."
"I want to thank my wife who I don't usually associate with Iran. I want to thank you for working on our marriage for 10 Christmases. It's good. It is work but it's the best kind of work and there's no one I'd rather work with," Affleck said.

Earth is the third planet from the Sun in our solar system. It is the only planet — or, indeed, the only place in the universe — that we know harbors life.
Scientists estimate the age of the Earth to be approximately 4.54 billion years. This is roughly one third of the estimated age of the universe, 13.75 billion years.
These scientifically-validated estimates contradict the view of Young Earth creationists, who date the creation of the universe by the Christian God to 5,700 to 10,000 years ago. They base their estimate on a literal interpretation of the book of Genesis, and develop a rationale to suit their chosen date (for example, they may develop a rationale to show why they chose the date of creation calculated from the Septuagint versus the one calculated from the Masoretic text).
In some religions the Earth is worshiped as a deity.
Center of the Universe[edit]
- Main Article: Earth is at the center of the universe
It was previously thought that the Earth was at the center of the universe. From a person on Earth, they would see the stars and planets moving. Naturally, being the young humans, they assumed that the Earth was at the center of the universe and everything moved around it. This formed the basis of the Roman Catholic Church believing that the Earth was at the center of the universe. Scientists such as Copernicus and Galileo theorized later on that the Earth was not at the center of the universe, but was revolving around the Sun. The scientists who did support this position were attacked and prosecuted by the Christian Church.
In the late 1900's and the early 2,000's, the Pope officially recognized that the Earth was revolving around the sun and expressed regret over how the church have acted against Galileo and other scientists.
Young Earth Creationism[edit]
- Main Article: Young-Earth creationism
As afore mentioned there are Christians who hold the belief that the world is 6,000 years old. They gain this belief, allegedly, through scripture. Christians who hold this belief assert that scripture is infallible. They then take the geneologies in Genesis 5 and 11, from Adam to Abraham, and get a number of roughly 1946 years. They then add this number to 2,000 B.C. This latter number is the well accepted date of Abraham's life and times. From here they get roughly 4,000 B.C. as thus being the time when Abraham was created and therein the world. The only way this works, however, is if there is a literal 24 hour 6 day creation.
There are many Christians, however, that see the problems between science and the young earth creationist view and have re-evaluated their exegesis of Genesis 1. They have derived that because of Genre, Accommodation, Hebrew language and understanding of Cosmogony, the Genesis 1 account was never meant to give an account of when creation was created, merely that it was. They thus find no problem in asserting that scripture is infallible and that the world is not 6,000 years old but 4.6 billion as science suggests. These individuals are called Old Earth, or Progressive Creationists.

ST 65 Air Operated Production Desoldering System with SX-100
Shop Air Powered Production Desoldering Station
There are no complicated controls to worry about with PACE's ST 65 ... just
turn a dial to the temperature you need and you're ready to desolder!
The ST 65 Desoldering Station was designed for high volume, production desoldering requirements. Incorporating PACE's famous no-clog SX-100 Sodr-X-Tractor Desoldering Handpiece (see video at right), the ST 65 incorporates a powerful, multistage venturi that is powered by your compressed/shop air source, producing an ultra-fast rise vacuum that eliminates clogging/maintenance issues normally associated with rapid desoldering and rework operations. Because it uses shop-air instead of a large motor-pump, the unit is extremely compact and features an extremely small footprint, easily fitting in areas with limited bench space.
The ST-65 is an economical, yet durable desoldering system with simplified dial and single channel featuring IntelliHeat technology. Designed for easy operation, there is no programming, no display, just a simple twist of a knob! A color-coded diode tells you when you have reached target temperature. The heavy-duty, durable ESD-safe metal housing ensures years of service and the sloped face of the front panel is a standard feature for ease of use. An optional mounting bracket is available to mount the system under a work bench or shelf, preserving precious bench top space. Tips supplied separately.
SX-100 Sodr-X-Tractor: A Better Way to Desolder
PACE revolutionized the electronics industry in the 60's by creating the first self-contained continuous vacuum desoldering system. Now PACE has taken the best desoldering handpiece on the planet and made it better! The SX-100 Solder Extractor has been improved so that is does not clog! The modular heater has been re-engineered to transfer heat better through the length of new SX-100 Tips. SX-100 Desolder Tips will not clog because the isolated hot solder path is designed to stay well above solder melt temperature, preventing even Lead-Free solder from solidifying.
PACE has taken the best desoldering handpiece on the planet and made it better!
Designed for high volume desoldering operations, the SX-100 features an environmentally friendly/disposable collection chamber to maximize productivity. When the filter is full, just pull out the chamber, pop out the old filter and replace with a new one - all within 15 seconds! If you prefer, the SX-100 can also be used with a re-cleanable glass chamber (included). Optional 2 and 4-sided Pik-Tips allow safe, rapid reflow and removal of a wide variety of TSOP's, QFP's and Flatpacks. Pik-Tips are designed to reflow all the leads on the component simultaneously and incorporate a unique vacuum pick. Once reflowed, the vacuum is activated and the component is lifted off the PCB.
Easily Expands to Increase Capabilities!
The ST 65 is far more than a desoldering station. Its functionality can be easily expanded by adding any one of 8 IntelliHeat compatible handpieces including:
1.) SX-100 Sodr-X-Tractor Desoldering Handpiece (comes with ST-65) 2.) TD-100 Tip-Heater Cartridge Soldering Iron (optional) 3.) MT-100 MiniTweez Micro Tweezer (optional) 4.)

An educational advocacy group released its third annual District Report Cards earlier this week, showing that half of the largest Bay Area unified districts improved in their efforts to educate low-income students and those who are black or Latino.
But still far too many districts are failing — or getting average and below-average marks, including Vacaville Unified School District and two other Solano County districts — to adequately prepare those students for graduation and for college, according to the Oakland-based Education Trust-West.
"We hope that parents, educators and community members will use these report cards as a resource to identify districts that are closing achievement gaps and providing greater opportunities for all students to be successful," said Jeannette LaFors, director of equity initiatives at Education Trust-West.
The independent student advocacy group used data from the California Department of Education to create A-to-F letter grades and numerical rankings in four key categories: student performance, academic improvement over five years, size of achievement gaps and college readiness. It combined all four grades to come up with the overall grades.
According to the advocacy group"s most recent data, VUSD received an overall D grade for the 2011-12 academic year. The district fared worst in the college-ready subcategory, 121 of 142, earning an F for college eligibility among students of color. However, in the latter subcategory, "no previous data" was indicated for the rankings, raising questions about how Education Trust-West arrived at its letter grade for the 12,500-student district.
In two previous years, 2010-11 and 2009-10, VUSD also received an overall D grade. In the college-ready category in 2011, the district received an F in the subcategory of college eligibility among students of color.
According to the group"s most recent data, nearly 49 percent of all VUSD students are classified as low-income, with 8 percent black students, 31 percent Latino, 49 percent white, with annual per-pupil expenditures of $7,005.
VUSD officials, including Superintendent John Niederkorn and Mark Frazier, the district"s chief academic officer, could not be reached for comment at press time. District classes were suspended this past week because of the annual Easter break.
Fairfield-Suisun Unified School District did not fare much better than Vacaville, earning at C- overall grade, but showed gradual improvement for the last three years.
However, under the education the gaps category this past year, the district earned an F in the subcategory of achievement gap between black and white students, at 103 out of 126, down more than nine places from the prior year.
The district also received an F in the two subcategories, achievement gaps between black and Latino students compared to their white counterparts, in 2010-11; but it received a D+ grade overall, up slightly from the D grade it received in 2009-10.
"We are pleased to see some improvement, even though we have a long way to go," said Kristin Corey, the district"s assistant superintendent of educational services and newly named superintendent-designate for the 21,600-student district, the largest in Solano. "Our achievement gap is big concern at all our schools, and our schools are becoming much better" at recording the statistics.
While noting the district"s shortcomings, she added, "Our main focus is how we can engage all students at a very early age. I think we"ve made a lot of gains in that area. We have a lot of work to do."
According to the most recent Education Trust-West data, nearly 50 percent of all FSUSD students are classified as low-income, with 18 percent black students, 36 percent Latino, 20 percent white, with annual per-pupil expenditures of $7,115. Some 55 percent of all district students receive free or reduced-cost breakfast and lunch meals, Corey noted.
Vallejo City Unified School District, which has 15,300 students, earned the same mark as Vacaville last year, a D overall grade. In education gaps, like Fairfield-Suisun, the district earned an F in both subcategories. In previous years, 2010-11 and 2009-10, the district earned a D and D+ overall, respectively, but earned F"s in the gaps subcategory of achievement gap between black and white students in the previous two years.
According to the advocacy group"s most recent data, 60 percent of all VCU students are classified as low-income, with 29 percent black students, 33 percent Latino, 9 percent white, with annual per-pupil expenditures of $8,842.
In the greater Bay Area, San Ramon Valley district in Contra Costa County, which has a relatively small percentage of low-income and black or Latino students, scored a B overall, which placed it in the top 10 statewide. The Pleasanton district in Alameda County and the South San Francisco district in San Mateo County earned the next-highest overall grades of C-plus.
The West Contra Costa and Oakland districts scored lowest overall in the Bay Area and throughout the state, with grades of D-minus. Both districts received F"s for the wide gaps that separate students of color from white students. In the graduation rates category, San Ramon Valley, Castro Valley and Pleasanton all earned A"s, while Oakland got an F. The district had one of the lowest graduation rates in 2012 for students of color of any large district in the state.
The San Ramon Valley district graduated 95 percent of its black and Latino students, tops in the state, followed by 93 percent in Castro Valley and 91 percent in Pleasanton. In contrast, only 54 percent of Oakland"s students of color graduated last year.
Terry Koehne, San Ramon Valley spokesman, said the district has been focusing on preparing all students for graduation, college and careers by building strong relationships between teachers and students and looking at individual students" strengths and weaknesses.
"We pride ourselves on hiring the best and brightest educators around," he said. "And we have a very strong, committed parent community with high expectations."
In Santa Clara County, the district posting the highest overall grade was Gilroy with a C, while the lowest was Morgan Hill with a D. Gilroy is focused on bumping up the number of students going to college, said Superintendent Deborah Flores. "I am very pleased to see that we fared so well in our county," she said. "Next year, I hope to be in the B range."
In between were Milpitas with a C-minus, and Palo Alto, Santa Clara and San Jose with a D-plus. Vincent Matthews, superintendent of San Jose Unified, said the district"s strategic plan calls for improving the achievement of poor and minority students.
"We have concerns, and we will strive to do more in closing the gap," he said.
Because the study looked only at unified (K-12) school districts, scores were missing for some of the largest districts in Santa Clara and San Mateo counties, including East Side, Campbell, Sequoia and San Mateo, which run only high schools.

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) Cory Schneider made 30 saves in his fifth career shutout, Mason Raymond scored twice, and the Vancouver Canucks avenged last week's blowout loss to Anaheim with three power-play goals in a 5-0 win over the Ducks on Friday night.
Daniel Sedin and Raymond scored on power plays in the first period, and Zack Kassian added a man-advantage goal in the third period as the Canucks quieted Anaheim's standing-room-only crowd at the final home opener of the NHL's lockout-shortened season.
Schneider bounced back splendidly from his season-opening pratfall as the Canucks' new starting goalie last Saturday in Vancouver, where the Ducks chased him with five goals in 27 minutes.
Jonas Hiller stopped 29 shots, but Anaheim couldn't get off to a 3-0-0 start for the second time in franchise history.

selection rules
The "S" in GOMS, selection rules are the rules people use to choose between multiple methods that accomplish the same goal. They typically depend on characteristics of the task or user's personal preferences or knowledge.
set theory
One of the foundations of nearly all mathematics and formalism in computing is the manipulation of sets (unordered collections of things) and functions.
situated action
One can plan to descend a set of rapids in a canoe, and one can plan and replan as one goes along, but one cannot (successfully) plan the descent and then merely execute the actions. Suchman, in her 1986 book "Plans and situated actions", analyzed action as necessarily improvisational. Actions are undertaken in response to the constantly changing physical and social environment. An important consequence of this is to make plans and planning a resource for action, and not simply as the determinant of action.

A taxonomy of three qualitatively distinct levels of cognitive control. An expert human operator may exhibit any or all levels of cognitive control, depending upon the situation. This is not to be confused with models that describe stages of acquiring expertise or skill.
A computational cognitive architecture developed by Allen Newel, John Laird, and Paul Rosenbloom in the early 1980s. It was used as the exemplar in Newell's 1990 book Unified Theories of Cognition. It has undergone continual development from its inception in many universities and has also been commercialized for complex modeling in military simulations and intelligent agents for video games. Soar was one of the architectures reviewed in Pew & Mavor (1998). More information about this series of architectures can be found in Newell (1990).
