Game Description
Sonic Generations celebrates the franchise's 20th birthday by gathering the best of Sonic's past and wrapping it into an experience that's part flashback and all fast-track. Sonic's world has been punctured by time holes. Play as two versions of Sonic, one current, one classic. Race into the environments of Sonic's past where you'll encounter memorable Sonic characters. Free your old friends by completing levels and they'll join you on the adventure. But your friends aren't the only ones who are waiting for you. You'll have to defeat some of the most powerful enemies Sonic has ever faced to plug the time holes and conquer the mysterious force that unleashed them.

IGN Review (8.5 out of 10)
It's almost jarring to see SEGA finally deliver on their generation-old promises that SEGA "does what Nintendon't." They have finally re-purposed Sonic as a platforming mascot that is, for the first time in ages, wildly definable by its own merits instead of trying to play catch up, tagalong or soro...more

Finally a Sonic game worthy enough to be played. It's been a while since we've seen our blue blur of a hero take the plate back to his roots (excluding the disastrous Sonic the Hedgehog 4) and the feeling never seemed so welcoming. With classic levels like Green Hill, Chemical Plant, and Sky...more

House Poised To Reject Budget Deal
By editor
Days after it seemed Congress had struck a budget, tax cut and unemployment deal that would get it through the holidays, it is clear that they did not. House Speaker John Boehner Monday must deal with a restive House GOP caucus that signaled over the weekend that it had no interest in going along with the Senate's two-month plan. NPR congressional correspondent David Welna joins Lynn Neary with the latest.

Die Casting - High Pressure » Pouring »
Maxium is a water-soluble, oil-based ladle coating, containing ceramic additives and boron nitride. It has been specially formulated to allow painting onto ladles of all types to provide a protective coating for use with molten hypereutectic silicon aluminium alloys, slags, drosses, etc. Use with metals and alloys other than aluminium is also possible, but requires testing before production use.
When applied to a substrate, Maxium produces a porous, dry, insulating coating that is inert and non-wetting to the molten metal. This coating has been formulated to provide the best quality and utility as a ladle coating for all types of ladles, including Pyrocast AR (fused silica), RFM® (calcium silicate based), cast iron and others.
The non-wetting properties of Maxium SMC-L and BMC-L have been enhanced with ZYP's high performance boron nitride. These Maxiums extend the ladle's life while being easy to apply by brush or air-spray techniques. The water-soluble oil base makes removal and cleanup easier than standard oil-based coatings.
Ideal Uses LADLES—Maxium SMC-L and BMC-L coatings are formulated for ladle protection from oxide and dross adhesion in difficult piston and silicon aluminium alloys.

Several of the places we hike every year have trout. I'd like to have some fresh fish on a couple of those hikes but I'm pretty new to trout fishing and I don't want to carry the weight of full fishing gear. What type of pole would be best for a portable trout fishing setup?
I like to fish trout with sweet corn. They seem to like it and it comes in small cans. Bringing a roll of fishing line and some small hooks should be enough. You can roll up the fishing line on a stick and make your own swimmer out of some light wood. At least this worked for me. It doesn't give you a bountiful yield of trout but should suffice if you want to keep your fishing gear light weight. |
One of the most "packable" ways to fish for trout is using a tenkara rod. |

Running a Net Radio Station With Open-Source Software
Five great minds got together and decided that broadcasting over the Internet would be cool—plain and simple. Five great minds quickly turned to seven and an Internet radio station at http://www.opensourceradio.com/ was born. The open-source Community has made this internet radio station possible by supplying all the software components. Two main hardware components are necessary to broadcast on the Internet: a broadcast server and an encoder client. It is not a requirement to separate the server and the client, they can be run on the same machine, but we chose to use two different systems at two different locations to generate our output.
We play MP3-encoded material during our radio show. LAME and Liveice convert the audio output to MP3-encoded specifications so anyone with xmms or Winamp can decode our signal. Broadcasting MP3-encoded material at this time does not require any licensing, however it is anticipated that in the year 2001 royalties will be collected by the agency holding the patent. You can obtain more information regarding these issues at www.mp3licensing.com. If the company that holds the patent imposes royalties, we plan to move to a different encode, decode schema. Ogg Vorbis is a patent and royalty-free compressed audio formatter that we anticipate moving our broadcast server to in the near future. Ogg Vorbis is available at www.xiph.org. Also, the MP3 licensing does not cover issues regarding broadcasting copyrighted material to a public audience so if you plan to run an Internet radio station, be certain you have permission to broadcast anything for which you do not hold the copyright.
We use standard hardware because we found quickly that obscure components introduce unnecessary delays in the setup process. The rest of this article details the setup of each component in our internet radio station. We also describe any problems that we encountered along the way. Please understand that there are a million ways to create an internet radio station, and the choices we made were not due to any alliance with any vendor—we simply made it work in the following mannner.
Figure 1 gives an overview of our network that starts when it gets our voices to an MP3 player. We speak into microphones, the microphones convert our voice to analog and the mixer condenses the stream into the line-in on the encoder client that runs Liveice. Liveice picks up the stream and uses LAME to convert our voice from analog to digital. Liveice then sends our digitized stream out onto the Internet to our defined broadcast server that runs Icecast. Icecast takes the incoming stream and broadcasts it onto the Internet at both the destination and port www.opensourceradio.com:8000. Once it is on the Internet, any decoding client, such as an MP3 player, can pick up the stream and decode our digital stream to audio output.
We wanted to succeed right away so we acquired a domain, static IP and a server with open ports. A static IP and domain are not necessary, but by making everything static we don't need to inform our listener base every time our ISP changes our IP. We also connected our server to the Internet via a T1. This gives us the bandwidth to provide high-quality broadcasting. Our broadcast server, Linux3 and our static IP are provided by www.doitwebcorp.com. The server is a standard networked PC running Red Hat Linux 6.2.
We started by downloading the Icecast server software from www.icecast.org. We chose to use version 1.3.7 because it was considered the most stable release available at the time. We used the default installation that locates the binaries in /usr/local/icecast. The configuration of the Icecast server is very simple, you only need to change one file. The icecast.conf file is very informative. The sections we changed allow the encoder client to send streaming audio to the broadcast server that will be serving to the Internet. Our server is set up with the IP address 18.104.22.168 with the registered domain of www.opensourceradio.com. If you compare the default icecast.conf file to our example icecast.conf file, you will see the fields that we changed. This is only a portion of the icecast.conf file, as it is a very large file.

Traditionally, providing security for a system focuses on the confidentiality of the information on it. However, protecting the data integrity and system and data availability is just as important. For example, when processing United States intelligence information, there are three attributes that require protection: confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

How to Build an Optimal Hadoop Cluster to Store and Maintain Unlimited Amounts of Data Using Microservers
Realizing the promise of Apache® Hadoop® requires the effective deployment of compute, memory, storage and networking to achieve optimal results. With its flexibility and multitude of options, it is easy to over or under provision the server infrastructure, resulting in poor performance and high TCO. Join us for an in depth, technical discussion with industry experts from leading Hadoop and server companies who will provide insights into the key considerations for designing and deploying an optimal Hadoop cluster.
Some of key questions to be discussed are:
- What is the "typical" Hadoop cluster and what should be installed on the different machine types?
- Why should you consider the typical workload patterns when making your hardware decisions?
- Are all microservers created equal for Hadoop deployments?
- How do I plan for expansion if I require more compute, memory, storage or networking?

Thread: Flaky memory? Advice needed!
Flaky memory? Advice needed!
*Nevermind. Some switching around revealed one of the two sticks is as faulty as it gets.*
I've been experiencing problems with my laptop the last few days. Sudden bluescreens, restarts. Ran the diagnostics included in the bios from HP, memory came back 'ok' but it told me to replace my harddrive at the hd-test. So next thing I did was hook up my hd to my desktop to take an image of it.
Afterwards I started checking into finding a second confirmation that the drive indeed is the problem. So I ran hdtune on it. At first it seemed like it couldn't read out the smart data on it, but the error scan came back with one damaged block. Today the smart function suddenly started working, and hdtune says the drive is fine. It does however show a warning that the 'reallocated sector count' has reached the critical value once. So I suppose the drive is on its way out though?
Knowing the aforementioned I decided to pop a bootable memtest copy in my laptop and fired it up without the hd attached to the laptop. (Am I correct assuming this shouldn't make any changes to the outcome of the test?)
So far all results I've been seeing on memtest are marked in red and an insane amount of errors in the overview (say a 100 less or so than the test count being at around ~40.000 atm).
Am I right in assuming the memory is definately the culprit here, or could this have something to do with the drive not being installed? (Sounds hard to believe the thing even worked for more than half an hour without restarts/bluescreens with that amount of memory errors..)Last edited by GIBSON; 08-27-2011 at 04:15 PM.

The 500 GB drive in my system was considered dead by the previous owner. Smart said so and it wouldn't function. on a lark I cracked the partition and reformated it. that was in 2006 or 2007. it is still working fine to this day. just recent ly I had a system giving BSODs steady. did the same to it and it's working perfectly now. sometimes the file structure just gets wacked. and the drive can't function right. I'm not claming this is your problem but if you have qa place to move the data to it can't hurt to try.
The path to universal understanding starts here: Say what you mean, and mean what you say.
I might try that out, thanks for the suggestion!
Won't be using it as a primary drive on my laptop anymore though, ssd is already ordered (an OCZ agility 3, looked like a good buy if I remember the reviews of it, certainly at its price). Still can't believe how much prices on memory sticks dropped the last few years. Got 4 gig of so-dimm kingston hyper x (pc2 6400 CL4), which should be a nice upgrade from the previous 2gb pc2 5300, and it's going to cost me ~50.

LUSH Big Blue Bath Bomb Review
Big Blue Bath Bomb
My Rating: [rating=3]
- Sail away: For days when you need a relaxing escape from the world.
- Good for your skin: Filled with the finest, nutritious ingredients from the sea.
- Sea what? When the seaweed soaks in the hot water, it becomes skin softening and soothing.
Cost: 6.3 oz. for $6.35
- Smells great! Like a drink you would sip on the beach.
- Turns water bright blue. Love it!
- Scent lingers on your skin for a few hours.
- Because of the sea salt, it helped clear up some skin issues.
- The amount of seaweed in here is a bit much. I feel bad scooping it down the drain. Does it clog?
- It's much too big. I cut it in half and it's still too big, but I couldn't cut it smaller.
- Like all LUSH products, I think it's highly overpriced.
Full Review: Josh and I have been looking for a sea salt bath product for a while, because we heard it's good for the skin as a clear-up treatment every once in a while. I figured we'd get something like bath salts. Instead, as you may have suspected from my weekly photo post, we unexpectedly found a Big Blue Bath Bomb at LUSH and decided to give it a go!
I thought I could cut it into multiple pieces. Maybe I'm cheap, but I think using one of this huge things (the size of a tennis ball or larger) for my tiny apartment bathtub was overkill. I could literally see the money seeping down the drain. So I cut it, nearly severing my fingers in the process. If I could cut it into smaller pieces I would, but by the time I cut it in half it was already deteriorating.
The smell is beautiful! I expected it to smell like sunscreen or salty water, but it smells more like something you would enjoy drinking on the beach or even a nicely scented "ocean" body spray rather than a more organic smell.
The water turned blue, which was exciting for me. There is actual seaweed in here too, which makes your bathtub really feel like the ocean and also soothes your skin, but I felt they put a bit much. There was a good handful of seaweed for each half of the bath bomb, and I felt like I was going to clog my drain. (It didn't.)
Best of all, the bomb helped calm my skin, which was the intention.
Big Blue Bath Bomb smells great, looks fun, and is very good for your skin if you need to calm irritated spots and get rid of acne. Unfortunately, it's a bit overpriced for me and way too big. I'll probably buy it again and use it sparingly, but I wish LUSH made their bath bombs more apartment-friendly-sized. And lower the price, while they're at it!
This was my first LUSH product. Have you ever tried LUSH bath bombs? What were your thoughts?
You can find more information on the LUSH Big Blue Bath Bomb on the official LUSH website.

Snow Before Halloween?
Snow is predicted for the weekend, and above average snowfall for the winter.
The most current forcast by the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) said La Niña will not be a major influence in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast this winter. La Niña means cold and snow. But, said the forcast. But the Arctic Oscillation can be a big player. "If the combination of enough cold air and moisture come together this winter, we could see above-average snowfall," reported NOAA. We may experience that "but" this weekend. The National Weather Service has issued a Hazardous Weather Outlook, with snow expected Saturday. For Burke and the immediate area, little or no snow accumulation is expected. Up to six inches is expected in the mountains west of D.C. The 2012 Farmers Almanac calls for a winter of near-normal …

Morbid obesity is recognized as a significant health risk associated with physical problems that may increase morbidity and mortality among the Medicare population. According to the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force, "obesity is a risk factor for major causes of death, including cardiovascular disease, numerous types of cancer, and diabetes, and is linked with markedly diminished life expectancy." The surgical management of morbid obesity, bariatric surgery, is a treatment that may result in dramatic weight loss. Several different surgical procedures have been used for people with morbid obesity, including biliopancreatic diversion, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, and gastric banding.
The Agency for Health Research and Quality (AHRQ) recently issued a technology assessment entitled: Pharmacological and Surgical Treatment of Obesity. Evidence Report/Technology Assessment No. 103.* This, along with numerous other publications, indicate the need for a careful assessment of the evidence surrounding bariatric surgery.
CMS is referring the issue of surgical management of obesity to the Medicare Coverage Advisory Committee (MCAC). The MCAC will review the evidence related to the benefits, risks and costs of bariatric surgery in obesity.
Notice of this action is given under the Federal Advisory Committee Act (5 U.S.C. App. 2, section 10(a)(1) and (a)(2)).
This tracking sheet does not represent a National Coverage Analysis for bariatric surgery. It only serves to announce the upcoming MCAC meeting.

Fact Sheet What Is Antiretroviral Therapy (ART)?May 22, 2012
What Is ART?ART means treating retroviral infections like HIV with drugs. The drugs do not kill the virus. However, they slow down the growth of the virus. When the virus is slowed down, so is HIV disease. Antiretroviral drugs are referred to as ARV. ARV therapy is referred to as ART or CART (Combination Antiretroviral Therapy.) What Is the HIV Life Cycle?There are several steps in the HIV life cycle. (See Fact Sheet 106 for a diagram.)
Approved ARV DrugsEach type, or "class", of ARV drugs attacks HIV in a different way. The first class of anti-HIV drugs was the nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (also called NRTIs or nukes.) These drugs block Step 4, where the HIV genetic material is used to create DNA from RNA. The following drugs in this class are used:
Another class of drugs blocks the same step of the life cycle, but in a different way. These are the non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, also called non-nukes or NNRTIs. Five have been approved:
The third class of ARV drugs is the protease inhibitors or PIs. These drugs block Step 10, where the raw material for new HIV virus is cut into specific pieces. Ten protease inhibitors are approved:
A newer class of ARV drugs is entry inhibitors. They prevent HIV from entering a cell by blocking Step 2 of the life cycle. Two drugs of this type have been approved:
The newest type of ARV drug is the integrase inhibitor. It prevents HIV from inserting its genetic code into the human cell's code in step 5 of the life cycle. The first drug of this type is:
How Are the Drugs Used?Antiretroviral drugs are usually used in combinations of three or more drugs from more than one class. This is called "Combination Therapy." Combination therapy works better than using just one ARV alone, It also helps prevent drug resistance. Manufacturers of ARVs keep trying to make their drugs easier to take, and have combined some of them into a single pill. See Fact Sheet 409 for more information on combination medications. What Is Drug Resistance?When HIV multiplies, most of the new copies are mutations: they are slightly different from the original virus. Some mutations keep multiplying even when you are taking an ARV drugs. When this happens, the drug will stop working. This is called "developing resistance" to the drug. See Fact Sheet 126 for more information. If only one ARV drug is used, it is easy for the virus to develop resistance. For this reason, using just one ARV drug (monotherapy) is not recommended. But if two or three drugs are used, a successful mutant would have to "get around" all of the drugs at the same time. Using combination therapy means that it takes much longer for resistance to develop. Can These Drugs Cure AIDS?At present, there is no known cure for HIV infection or AIDS. ARVs reduce the "viral load", the amount of HIV virus in your bloodstream. A blood test measures the viral load. People with lower viral loads stay healthier longer. Some people's viral load is so low that it is "undetectable" by the viral load test. This does not mean that all the virus is gone and it does not mean a person is cured of HIV infection. See Fact Sheet 125 for more information on viral load. When Do I Start?There is not a clear answer to this question. Most doctors will consider your CD4 cell count and any symptoms you've had. Current guidelines say that everyone who is infected with HIV should start ARV therapy. See Fact Sheet 404 for more information on treatment guidelines. This is an important decision you should discuss with your health care provider. Which Drugs Do I Use?Each ARV drug can have side effects. Some may be serious. Refer to the fact sheet for each individual drug. Some combinations of drugs are easier to tolerate than others, and some seem to work better than others. Each person is different, and you and your health care provider will have to decide which drugs to use. The viral load test is used to see if ARV drugs are working. If the viral load does not go down, or if it goes down but comes back up, it might be time to change ARV drugs. What's Next?New drugs are being studied in all of the existing classes. Researchers are also trying to develop new types of drugs, such as drugs that will block other steps in the HIV life cycle, and drugs that will strengthen the body's immune defenses. See Fact Sheets 470 and 480 for more information on newer classes of drugs. This article was provided by AIDS InfoNet.

Associates Degree Program
The Associate in Science Degree Program is a collaborative effort between Bridgeport Hospital School of Nursing and Housatonic Community College. It allows graduates of BHSN to receive an Associate in Science Degree in Nursing from Housatonic Community College. To be eligible for the degree, the student must be a graduate of BHSN, pass the licensure examination as an RN, complete an additional required 3 credit course (ENG*E102 Literature & Composition), have completed at least 16 of the total credit hours at Housatonic Community College and enroll in their nursing program.
Please visit Housatonic Community College's site for more information.
Partial Evening Program
Many of our students have multiple responsibilities and often find it difficult to transition into nursing school when courses are offered only during the day. A partial evening program is offered for the first academic year. Only clinical and lab hours are offered evenings. Students in this program are required to move to the day division when Level II courses begin in May and throughout the remainder of the program.
Consideration for the partial evening program is contingent on space availability. Remember to specify your program preference, day or partial evening division, on your admission application.
Accelerated RN Program
The accelerated RN program is designed for students who can commit more time to study over the summer months. The eligibility requirements for this program are:
LPN to RN Articulation Bridge Program
Bridgeport Hospital School of Nursing's LPN to RN Articulation Bridge Program is a three-credit course offered on-line through Charter Oak College distance learning courses. The LPN* must first be accepted by Bridgeport Hospital School of Nursing (BHSN) before enrolling in the Articulation Bridge Course. Acceptance is dependent upon admission requirements and completion of first level non-nursing courses.
In addition, the LPN will be required to take NU200, Transition for the LPN, a one credit course at BHSN offered in the spring semester that is specific to the objectives of our school and serves as a supplement to the on-line Bridge Course. Successful completion of the on-line Bridge Course, non-nursing Level I courses and NU200 allows the LPN to bypass all first year nursing courses at BHSN and enter into second level courses.
Click here for a printable information sheet on the LPN to RN Articulation Bridge Program
Applications are accepted May 1st through September 1st each year.
RN to BSN
The BHSN graduate may take advantage of the Connecticut Articulation Model for Nurse Educational Mobility. This Model facilitates the transfer of nursing and non-nursing lower-division coursework to an upper-division nursing program in Connecticut. After acceptance to a BSN program, the BHSN graduate can transfer 30 credits in nursing and 30 credits of general education into an upper-division nursing program.

You would probably be better off creating a .deb package for Debian based distros (including Ubuntu), and .rpm package for Red-Hat based distros (including Fedora), and making the .tar file available for everybody else.

Its different for different unix-systems. But the common thing in all those is the tar.gz file . It is the source code of your program. Then you can make either .deb files for Debian systems or .rpm file for Red Hat Systems. The .deb and .rpm are both binary files while tar.gz is mostly ASCII file but it can also contain binaries. You can convert .rpm file to .deb file in debian systems by this command: To install : To convert to .deb from .rpm : Replace the "packagename.rpm" with your original name of the file. Then a .deb file will be created and to install that use : Replace the "filename.deb" with your original name of the file. If you want that users can install your application by apt-get or yum then you will have to upload your app to the repository of your distribution. Only then the user will be able to use apt-get or yum to install the application directly. |

Great baby bag
As a first time mum going out for the first few times with baby on your own can be a little bit daunting. This bag has made life much easier, its roomy, light, with a lot of pockets/compartments with plenty of space for baby's things, and your own things too and everything is easy to find. I carry it as a tote and I'm sure it will continue to be used when baby grows up and can make an excellent overnight/weekend bag. A great investment!!

Offensively, JJ isn't the worst option we have at the 4. Defensively, he allows a 24+ PER. Thats not on. But I would put that more on Franks systems, than I would on JJ. CV isn't actually that bad. Worth what he gets paid? Of course not. But if you were paying him $3m and he was giving you what he gives us for 20mpg it would be a good investment.
JJ needs to be Singler's backup, not Maxiell's. Play JJ as the backup SF that he is, and put an end to the Stuckey at the 3 BS and everything would improve. As it is, we are one Slava injury away from seeing an all-PG lineup on the court. And Panda, I'm sorry, but CV is totally, definitely, without a doubt, absolutely that bad. The thing that's the worst is that his body language and his demeanor on the court just looks like he doesn't care about anything. He's a terrible influence and needs to go away.
Bynum + _______+ shooter McGee + shooter McGavin + Drummond was pretty awesome to watch though. It's not the same since the band broke up.
Hold on a minute. We are talking about talent here right? Because in terms of actual basketball ability, he quite easily cracks the top 5 of the Pistons. Demeanor and effort - I won't argue.
So basically what you're saying is that if the NBA decides to move toward a H-O-R-S-E format instead of playing actual basketball games, CV will prove to be worth every dollar that the Pistons are paying him.
Going by PER alone, CV does have the 5th best on the Pistons (after Drummond, Calderon, Monroe, and Bynum).
I haven't checked but I have to imagine that he also has the 5th worst PER on the team. On an unrelated note, my grandmother is the 4th hottest chick at the Nursing Home.
Actually, Charlie is rated 153rd out of 334 qualified NBA players. He is ahead of: 168th: Daye 169th: Jerebko 196th: Knight 215th: Stuckey 220th: Prince 244th: Maxiel 276th: Singler
I think its a combination of being badly used and not putting in effort. The guys career is essentially over in the NBA
...and to be fair, Brian Hill was under the influence of some pretty heavy hallucinogenics or something. How else can you explain some of those "psychedelic lineups" that he was deploying. He wasn't trying to win the game. He was just trying to trip-out the 1,500 or so fans that came out to the Palace to "experience" the Knicks/Pistons game live.

"None of us will ever really know what happened in Miami Gardens last year," said John McCann, President and CEO of Mace Security International. "But we do know that a tragedy could have been averted if George Zimmerman had chosen to protect himself with Mace instead of a deadly weapon."
A recent online survey of pepper spray owners conducted by Balance Inc., a strategic design consultancy located in Cleveland, indicates that record numbers of U.S. adults now rely upon pepper spray for self-protection. The blind survey was conducted using a nationally representative sample of respondents provided by Harris Interactive, an independent, global survey firm. Commissioned by Mace Security International, the survey also revealed interesting purchasing trends among pepper spray carriers:
"These survey results confirm the sales trends that Mace is a safe deterrent in these troubling times."

Academy for Nuclear Science and Technology
Thanks to its thorough experience in the field of nuclear science and technology, its innovative research and the availability of large nuclear installations, SCK•CEN is an important partner for education and training (E&T) projects in Belgium as well as at international level. The Centre's know-how and infrastructure are available for these education and training purposes. Preserving and extending nuclear knowledge on fundamental and peaceful applications of ionising radiation to serve society, is one of the key elements in SCK•CEN's research policy. SCK•CEN's E&T activities are coordinated by SCK•CEN's Academy for Nuclear Science and Technology. | |
1. Guidance for young researchers in the preparation of their thesis
Specifically towards young scientific researchers, SCK•CEN opens its laboratories and its experts are available to mentor Bachelor, Master and PhD students. In addition, initiatives are taken towards high school pupils (guided thematic visits) and teachers (update on nuclear topics and provision of certain illustrations).
2. Academic courses and Training for professionals
SCK•CEN collaborates with several Belgian and foreign universities and contributes to academic learning.
In addition, we also foresee training in all nuclear topics (radiation protection, nuclear engineering, materials issues, emergency planning, decommissioning, waste and disposal issues, radiation biology, -ecology, -chemistry, …), tailored to the needs of the trainees in terms of programme, duration, level, language (Dutch, French or English), location, etc.
Among the lecturers are technicians, physicists, biologists, medical doctors, engineers and social scientists who all bring insights and ideas from their specific background into the course programmes. As SCK•CEN staff members, they have a solid knowledge and experience in their field, and can thus directly transfer their theoretical knowledge and practical experience into the various courses.
The implementation of a coherent approach to education and training in nuclear science and technology becomes crucial in a world of dynamic markets and increasing workers' mobility. Through networking and participation in international programmes, the SCK•CEN Academy contributes to a better harmonisation of education, training practice and skills recognition on a national and international level.
4. Research on transdisciplinary aspects of education and training
Understanding the benefits and risks of radioactivity requires technical insight and training, but also notice of the context and a sense for the social and philosophical aspects of the situation. In coordination with the academic sector, the research of the SCK•CEN Academy concentrates on how to integrate this transdisciplinary approach in education and training programmes for as well professionals as students and pupils. Specific training modules are also organised that cover this aspect, i.e. "exploring the science, ethics and politics of nuclear technology assessment".

Puerto Viejo de Sarapiquí
One of Costa Rica's lesser-known eco-destinations has been developing a growing selection of nature-theme activities in recent years. In the 19th century, Puerto Viejo de Sarapiquí was a thriving river port and the only link with the coastal lands straight east. Fortunes nose-dived with the construction of a full-fledged port in the town of Moín near Limón, and today Puerto Viejo has a slightly run-down air. The activities of the Nicaraguan Contras made this a danger zone in the 1980s, but now that the political situation has improved, boats once again ply the old route up the Sarapiquí River to the San Juan River on the Nicaraguan frontier, from where you can travel downstream to Barra del Colorado or Tortuguero. (Wars of words still occasionally flare up between Costa Rica and Nicaragua, but they need not concern you as a visitor.) A few tour companies have Sarapiquí River tours with up to Class III rapids in the section between Chilamate and La Virgen, with plenty of wildlife to see. If you prefer to leave the driving to them, many of the lodges operate boat tours on the tamer sections of the river.

Une mission bénévole
Une mission bénévole posté par Experience Himalayan Nepal
Publié le : 22 janv. 2013
Many organizations across the world make money from people volunteering and its only natural a very big business has sprung from this. But with the introduction and education of people living in the country where the volunteering takes place its become far easier for potential volunteers to by-pass the big companies and apply straight to the grass roots organizations themselves. Which save a lot of money for the volunteer and gives them chance to explore more of the country they are visiting?
One such organization is Experience Himalayan Nepal, a small Non profit organization based in Kathmandu with friends across the world. We keep a small office in KTM costing us £50 a month to run, expenses for the people working there are kept low so we can actually give far more money to our projects. And with EHN policy of developing each place we are working with it shows that by volunteering with us it can and will make that difference.
To volunteer in Nepal for just £10 a day and help orphanages, schools, daycare and medical centres then contact us at email@example.com

YNN highlights the coolest and newest apps for your cell phone or mobile device in the twice-weekly segment "App Wrap." YNN's Adam Balkin filed the following report.
Each new school year that begins in the age of mobile devices brings with it a whole new crop of back-to-school apps. While most are aimed at reinforcing lessons in math, reading and other traditional subjects, two new apps are a bit off the beaten path.
Awesome Upstander!
The "Awesome Upstander!" app is designed to help teach children how to deal with bullies. The gamer is an "upstander," a student who helps stand up to bullies. The ultimate goal of each level is to simply stand in between the bully and the buddy who is the target. Along the way, the player has to pick up both friends and certain items like a cellphone to call for help.
Developers say the app is designed to promote empathy, remind kids not to turn a blind eye and that there is power in numbers when helping to stick up for a friend and reinforces the need for kids to get an adult if they witness bullying.
The game's website, AwesomeUpstander.com, also has talking points for parents and teachers looking to address bullying.
"Awesome Upstander!" is an iOS and Android app for 99 cents.
"GazziliScience" teaches a more traditional subject, but what's untraditional about it is who it is trying to teach science -- pre-schoolers. The app has six lessons: "Plants," "Water Cycle," "Seasons," "Non-Living," "Sink Or Float" and "The Five Senses."
Each lesson offers up a very hands-on, simple-to-understand concept. The "Water Cycle" lesson has users first touch the sun to heat up the water in the pond, then drag the condensation up to form the clouds and then touch the clouds to make it rain, which fills the pond again. Meanwhile, a narrator explains very clearly exactly what is happening.
After each lesson is completed, the user can get a part to help Purple, the app's mascot, build a science machine that will eventual feed Cleo and Theo.
"GazziliScience" is right now an iOS-only app for $1.99.

mm mmmm VOL. 7, NO. 1 1246 University Ave., St. Paul 4, Minn. NOVEMBER, 1957 Major Study Set on Minn. Traffic Code By C. D. JOHNSTON Folks who work for the State Highway department—employees and staff members—are playing major roles in a new research project, involving several departments or divisions of state government, which bids fair to set a pattern for finding out nationally what statutory revisions are best for the most people driving on our roads and streets. The study will seek to determine whether the laws regulating motor vehicle ownership and use can be adapted or improved on a basis comparable to what is being done by the nation's new 50 billion dollar construction program for the roads these rehicles use. ^In undertaking the study, Minnesota apparently is blazing the trail for other states in a new phase of the nation's effort to accommodate the ever-mounting volumes and changing types of motor vehicle traffic. It is a long-range study of all laws and regulations affecting motor vehicle ownership and use, with a view to assuring motorists of the safest, most economical and most efficient use possible of the highway transportation facilities that are and will become available to them under the new road building program. Word that the modestly begun Minnesota study has already attracted widespread attention was brought back from Roanoke, Va., by state officials who participated in the recent convention of the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators: J. L. Donovan, secretary of state; W. E. Howes, his assistant in charge of the Motor Vehicle division; Harry A. Sieben, director of the Highway Safety division, and G. A. Hatfield, head of the Drivers License division of the State Highway department. Known As The Minn. Plan _FAlready known as "The Minnesota Plan," an outline of the study being undertaken here by cooperating state agencies was presented to the national assembly by Louis R. Morony, head (Continued on page 6) Duluth Link Is Completed On Highway 61 The Old Thompson Hill road, the 2%-mile long west entrance to Duluth along T. H. 61, once a boon to auto repair shops, has undergone a major face lifting. Highway 61 is the major highway artery between Duluth and the Twin Cities. A four-lane divided highway for 2.4 miles on Thompson hill, from the Duluth west limits to Sixty-third Ave. W., in Duluth, has been completed and placed in use. The cost: $1,180,000, including an underpass bridge. Steepest gradient on this "sorely needed improvement" is 5 per cent and the maximum curvature is seven degrees, according to L. H. Miller, district engineer at Duluth. The project included excavation of 80,000 cubic yards of solid rock. Prior to the new high standard construction, the old highway along this stretch consisted of one roadway with snaky alignment and excessively steep grades for its entire length, Miller pointed out. Constructed in 1923, the driving surface was concrete pavement, 20 feet wide. An interesting feature of the old Thompson hill section, from the engineering standpoint, Miller reported, was that it was the first in Minnesota to include spiral or easement curves. Even so, until superceded by the new construction, the climb TOP: Motorists are enjoying this new four-lane divided highway on T. H. 61's approach over Thompson hill to Duluth, visible in the background. With lesser grades and curvatures, it is a great improvement over the former steep, winding two-lane road. BOTTOM: Rocky and rough are the words for the terrain over which the new Thompson hill link was planned and constructed. out of Duluth on this route, behind slow moving traffic, was frustrating to motorists. In the days of the Model T Fords, auto mechanics reaped a harvest in filling the demand for transmission band linings. The new divided highway will help to combat a serious driving hazard in the vicinity, the frequent occurrence of fog, Miller pointed out. On the summit of Thompson hill, the project included widening of the northbound lane to a rustic rock retaining wall, providing a parking area and vista of the panorama of Duluth, St. Louis bay and Lake Superior, with Wisconsin in the distance. It also includes a view of the Duluth, Missabi and Iron Range railroad tracks and ore trains, so representative of the growth and economy of the region. Consideration also has been given to the establishment of a parking area and picnic grounds adjacent to the highway and about half way up the hill. Walter Benson was the project engineer. The prime contractor was the St. Paul Dredging Co., with the J. W. Craig Co. of Minneapolis, as the major sub-contractor, and the W. V. Roedter Construction Co. of Duluth, the contractor for the bridge carrying the Duluth, Missabi and Iron Range railroad over the highway. £§ I H -

POMEROY — The Meigs County Humane Society is launching a campaign to raise awareness about the dangers of chaining dogs — and at the same time are offering kennels to families unable to afford them.
The Kenneth A. Scott Charitable Trust A KeyBank Trust has awarded the local humane society's "Comfort Zone" project a grant for $4,400 for promoting kinder treatment for animals and making the distribution of kennels possible.
The Scott Charitable Trust A KeyBank Trust, based in Cleveland, was established in 1995 to promote humane treatment of companion animals and to prevent cruelty to small animals, including wildlife. The Scott Trust awards Ohio non-profit organizations funds to advance the quality of life for animals, owned and homeless, and to address the root causes of animal cruelty and neglect. Preference is given to projects helping a broad array of companion animals, wildlife, or other types of animals.
The Meigs County Humane Society's campaign is part of a larger movement begun by Dogs Deserve Better (DDB), a nonprofit organization based in Virginia, which stresses that chained dogs "live as prisoners, yet long to be pets."
Dixie Circle Sayre, president of the the local Humane Society, explained that the Comfort Zone project began first with the question: "What is sadder than a dog at the end of a chain, separated from his family, approached only to be fed and watered?" She challenged the notion that tethering is the way to keep a dog and instead appealed to owners for compassion, much as Dogs Deserve Better does.
"Our call for kinder treatment of dogs will, we believe, be far more productively reinforced by the knowledge that concrete help is on the way," Sayre added.
Thanks to Scott Charitable Trust funds, the local Humane Society is now in a position to provide a limited number of kennels and kennel roofs to keep off the snow, ice, and rain which will greatly improve the dogs' lives.
Noting that dogs are companion animals who prefer the company of people, and sometimes become overly protective if chained, Sayre emphasized the dangers of injuring themselves while jumping around, as well as the very real possibility of choking and becoming helplessly wound up in chains or tethers. "I have seen two or three dogs staked out in a row unable to meet and greet each other or to reach their water bowls, powerless to move only five feet away from the leaky sheds that pass as their shelters. This is no life for a dog," she said
Vicky Baer, secretary-treasurer of the Meigs Society said that the Comfort Zone project is an attempt to enable owners to keep their dogs at home, in a safe enclosure, rather than leaving them to roam or live miserable lives tied to dog boxes.
"We encounter owners who agree that living chained is no life for a dog, but they are prevented from changing this situation because of their economic situation, so we decided to address this problem directly," Baer said. Kennels will be delivered and set up for owners who will also receive information on how to care for kennel dogs, including how many to include in the enclosure.
The plan is for the Meigs County Humane Officer to notify owners who are in need of a kennel of the Comfort Zone Program. Then if they qualify financially they are given priority for receiving one, said Baer. The animal owner must then show proof of low income, such as a food stamp or Medicaid card, Social Security Disability, W2s or unemployment verification, to be determined eligible for kennel and roof.
"Most people want to do what is best for the dogs, and we want to help them to do that," she concluded.

Two drivers sustained minor injuries in a three-vehicle crash on Route 7 in Clarendon, according to Vermont State Police.
The crash, which took place at the intersection of North Shrewsbury Road and Route 7 at about 9:10 p.m. Tuesday, occurred when the driver of a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee failed to yield at a flashing red light signal, police said.
The Jeep, driven by 17-year-old Edward Montgomery of West Rutland, collided with a 2009 Honda Civic driven by David Graham, 46, of Clarendon and a 1999 Chevrolet truck driven by Jerry Gorton, 48, of Brandon.
Police say all three drivers were wearing their seat belts and Gorton was uninjured in the crash.
Montgomery, who suffered cuts and bruises, and Graham, who had bruises and possible internal injuries that were not life threatening, were taken by Regional Ambulance Service to Rutland Regional Medical Center.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER Vermonts senior U.S. Full StoryCOLCHESTER — Two year after Lake Champlain flooding destroyed part of it, the Colchester...
