Saw the news flash regarding last Friday nightand#8217;s DUI checkpoint in Truckee. Itand#8217;s too bad that whenever you have a story about an upcoming checkpoint that you canand#8217;t also remind people, as a public service, that a) there are no mass transportation options into and out of Truckee until 12:30 a.m. on a Friday night and b) if you leave your car anywhere downtown, do the right thing, and take a cab home, your car will be towed and impounded at great expense.
All your article reminds us is that a situation exists which deliberately puts public safety at risk, in a downtown open until 2 a.m., and that law enforcement agencies and an unscrupulous towing and impounding company capitalize on it. Real civilized stuff.

Problems like climate change, biodiversity loss and natural resource use have long-term implications which require long-term policy solutions. To make informed strategic decisions, we must try to anticipate what lies ahead and grasp ongoing, emerging and latent developments. If we want to seriously address Europe's sustainability, we have to look beyond two legislative cycles and more. More
As Europe's climate warms, wine producers in Europe may need to change the type of grapes they cultivate or the location of vineyards, even moving production to other areas in some cases. This is just one example of how Europe's economy and society need to adapt to climate change, as examined in a new report from the European Environment Agency (EEA).
Climate change and flood risk in European cities
Mar 01, 2013Increased flooding is likely to be one of the most serious effects from climate change in Europe over coming decades. Some of the conditions which may contribute to urban flooding are highlighted in an Eye on Earth map from the European Environment Agency (EEA).
Climate change is affecting all regions in Europe, causing a wide range of impacts on society and the environment. Further impacts are expected in the future, potentially causing high damage costs, according to the latest assessment published by the European Environment Agency today.
The continuing loss of biodiversity – made up of genes, species and ecosystems – is a matter of growing concern in Europe. Yet measuring the extent of the loss and the threat it poses is a huge challenge.
Climate change will affect Europe's cities in different ways. To give an overall impression of the challenge for European cities to adapt to climate change, the European Environment Agency (EEA) has published a series of detailed interactive maps, allowing users to explore data from more than 500 cities across Europe.
The world continues to speed down an unsustainable path despite over 500 internationally agreed goals and objectives to support the sustainable management of the environment and improve human wellbeing, according to a new and wide-ranging assessment coordinated by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP).
Despite progress in some areas, Europe must do more to create the 'green economy' needed for the continent to become sustainable, according to a new report from the European Environment Agency (EEA).
Around three quarters of Europeans live in cities. Most of Europe's wealth is generated in cities, and urban areas are particularly at risk due to climate change. Europe should seize the opportunity of improving quality of life while adapting to climate change in cities, according to a report from the European Environment Agency (EEA). The report also warns that delaying adaptation will be much more costly in the long-term.

Dell PowerEdge R910 4U rack server
- Starting Price $7486.00
- Total Savings $2177.00
- Dell Price $5309.00
The Dell™ PowerEdge™ R910 is a high-performance 4-socket 4U rack server that features built-in reliability and scalability for mission-critical applications.
- Built-in reliability features at the CPU, memory, hardware and hypervisor levels
- Integrated systems management, Lifecycle Controller and embedded diagnostics to help maximize uptime
- Internal Dual SD Module providing superior hypervisor redundancy
Purpose-Built with a Focus on Reliability
We've designed the Dell™ PowerEdge™ R910 for reliability, incorporating features such as Intel® advanced reliability, availability and serviceability (RAS) capabilities; redundant power supplies; remote IDRAC6 connectivity; and embedded diagnostics. Internal Dual SD Module provides failover at the hypervisor — a reliability feature designed with direct input from Dell™ customers.
Our focus on reliability starts with product design and ends only when we've delivered by following a proven set of processes with rigorous validation. With the PowerEdge R910, we work to ensure reliability through:
- Employing robust validation and testing processes to ensure peerless product design
- Verifying that each supplier meets Dell's stringent quality standards
- Utilizing robust, durable industrial materials to enable longer product lifecycles
- Introducing a Unified Server Configurator (USC), which helps to minimize downtime by offering embedded and persistent diagnostics with no media required
- Incorporating customer-inspired features, such as dual internal SD modules that provide failover at the hypervisor
- Implementing a "one-touch" quality-control process designed to ensure that one person is responsible for the entire server build
- Ensuring that every fully configured Dell server is tested—and retested—before it leaves the factory
Intelligent Platforms, Connected Foundations
By listening to and focusing on our customers, Dell delivers innovations that matters and values that last.
Virtualization, consolidation, unifying fabrics, networking and storage upgrades are driving the need for more robust network pipes, and servers have to be able to provide the connectivity to drive this need for bandwidth. The PowerEdge™ R910 is available with a 2x10GbB LOM option to meet these demands. This delivers the bandwidth for applications without limiting scalability by integrating 10Gb capabilities on a riser.
A Complete Management Portfolio
The PowerEdge R910 is simple to deploy, manage and maintain, saving you time and money to focus on what matters most — your people and business.
Efficient Infrastructure
Customers can build an efficient and scalable server infrastructure with standard x86 server technologies. The PowerEdge™ R910 is the building block for a standard efficient infrastructure.- Dell's focus is on helping customers reduce cost with a server created to help simplify daily operations, maximize infrastructure, and streamline deployment.
- Dell™ LifeCycle Controller was developed to help customers implement an effective process for deployment and comprehensive server management.
- This Dell innovation allows customers to simplify initial setup and configuration of new servers by auto-discovery and initial security configuration of system service processor with the already collected and available drivers, helping reduce time and potential error or disruption.
The PowerEdge™ R910 is in line with the 11th generation PowerEdge portfolio behavioral specifications featuring the same system design commonality and serviceability true to the entire portfolio. Dell™ PowerEdge servers are engineered with all external ports, power supplies and LED lights in the same location for familiar user experience, as well as easy installation and deployment.

My boyfriend says parmesan sprinkle cheese is bad because it has been in the refrigerator for a long time. But I still use it long past it's date and don't seem to have any problems with it. What do you think?
It lasts a long while as long as it's stored properly. I use mine up too fast to have a problem. You may want to freeze half so you don't end up wasting it. It freezes very well. |
The rule with hard cheeses is you don't want to eat the moldy bits. This is easy to avoid when the cheese is in a block because you can just cut the moldy part off. With already ground cheese, the whole can is suspect the second you see any mold at all. That said, the agreed upon time is 3 months past the date on the package. I've used the cheese for longer than that myself but I can't recommend doing so. |
I forgot to mention that hard cheeses naturally contain a lot of salt. I buy the store brand and it contains no preservatives, just cheese and cellulose as a non-caking agent. |
Cans of cheese sprinkles are made to be shelf-stable for a longer time than fresh or block cheese (often, this is because the sprinkles are not made with real cheese -- or, if they are, then they also contain a lot of preservatives). The sprinkles should be safe to eat at least through their expiration date if stored properly. That said, any fat in the sprinkles can go rancid and mold can take hold well before the expiration date. If the contents of the can smell bad or the color of the sprinkle changes, don't take any chances; the cost of replacing the can is far lower than the cost of sickness. |

Semantic search – an Interview with Brooke Aker
For my second expert interview on the semantic web I set out to find a key commentator who is currently involved in the heart commercial semantic search. Can someone like that describe how these web developments will impact on coal-face journalists and researchers? I didn't need to look far. Brooke Aker is an expert in competitive intelligence and before taking up his post at Expert System he formed both Acuity Software and Cipher Systems. He has worked with 130 of the Global 2000 in the formation and operation of successful intelligence and is a key commentator on the semantic web.
Expert System is a leading provider of semantic software which discovers, classifies and interprets text information. Its semantic software, Cogito, has been deployed across most industry sectors and the company's clients include Eni Group, Pirelli, Microsoft and Telecom Italia.
Social networks and semantic search…
Q: Do you think the explosion in growth of niche sites such as Xing and Peer Trainer will accelerate the demand for semantic-type applications that allow people to travel seamlessly through various social networking services?
Brooke Aker: I would agree with this. Facebook and Myspace are good examples of getting people used to the idea that they can, not just search, but connect to people and content. So they set the stage for users to migrate quickly to Web 3.0 properties where users can search for and connect, analyze, and assemble very specific people and document objects in ways that are uniquely designed by them.
Transforming the way you work…
Q: You recently released a (very useful) presentation on 'what is semantic search'. It remains, however, difficult for coal-face researchers (insite readers!) to grasp its significance. What, in your view, are the best examples of semantic search that hold the most promise. I'm thinking here of apps like Juice. Not tools that help publishers – but tools that can currently help people in their day to day work?
Brooke Aker: We have been involved with applications that use semantics and combine search with discovery, or search with analysis. Let me explain….
Because semantics expands and connects similar concepts, from where I begin my search, I may end up in a place I did not expect. Say I run a search for "stock" and ask to limit my search to the concept of stock in the sense of soup. This helps avoid stock as in "inventory" or stock as in "equities." Now, I tell the system to expand the concept of soup stock and I get bouillon, stock, base, and a completely new word to me called fumet. I can then reduce my search results further by noting Emeril Lagasse is mentioned as a chef in one of the documents extracted. So in the end, I used semantics to search for a recipe on soup stock and ended up in a precise but completely new place with a recipe called "Emeril Lagasse's classic fish fumet." The document had no mention of the word soup or stock. This is something I would have otherwise missed.
For search combined with analysis, we often will employ semantics in a modeling sense. Think about a competitor who may be preparing to launch a new product, but the company has not made anything public yet. We know what steps that company must be taking in order to launch a new product: things like ramping up production lines, buying new machines, contracting with ad agencies, hiring new people with specific skills, etc. These actions are likely to be public. Semantics are employed to broadly find these indicators, which feed a model. If enough of the indicators are present, the model concludes a new product is forthcoming. So here, semantics plays a predictive role. Such foreknowledge of such things is many times more valuable than simply knowing the moment something is reported in the press as having already occurred.
Tech stacks…
Q: Many people, I think, assume that the semantic web will usher in a new period of improved search. But, in fact, developments such as the 'social semantic desktop' like Nepomuk may accelerate the development of semantic web technology. Do you agree?
Brooke Aker: I agree. The ideal architecture would be to re-index the entire Web semantically and have new browsers to read it. But that seems like a long shot for the time being. So instead, if you embed the semantic processing of every html page the standard browser reads, stores and retrieves locally, you have in effect federated the problem across the Internet. And of course those same special browsers or browser plug-ins could also peer-to-peer share their semantic results if directed by the end user.
Filter failure…
Q: I really like your graph visualising the downside of web2.0 (in your presentation) – as more and more information is mass produced there is a danger that productivity may slide. Do you agree with Clay Shirky's recent argument that 'information overload is just filter failure?' What we'll all have to get used to is using the right filters at the right time and learn how to maintain them?
Brooke Aker: Filters are a blunt instrument to a more delicate problem. And it implies a lot more work on the users end. This spells failure to me. People want convenience and simplicity, and are already overwhelmed.
About Cogito….
Q: Can you describe some of the practical applications to which your software, Cogito, has been applied (and therefore, where Expert System USA is positioning itself)?
Brooke Aker: One of the best examples we have now is in customer service. We support the online help function of mobile devices using a natural language interface. So users type a question they have about how to operate their devices into the handset. We return 1 precise answer to them. This prevents the user from doing two things. First, they don't return the device having found it too difficult to operate. This also saves the company the cost of acquiring the customer before they can earn it back. The second thing it does is deflect an inbound call to the customer service center where the average cost is $20. We can give the direct, accurate answer for about a ½ a penny.
Q: In your presentation you draw a green figure that demonstrates how web3.0 will allow people to better 'filter' or pick the content that is relevant to them. In your view, what single application/product best demonstrates the power of this technology?
Brooke Aker: Yes, this is the example I gave about the fish fumet. The product we have made to do this is Cogito Focus. It is a corporate search tool that includes crawlers, semantic indexers and a nicely done interface that is not much of a stretch over a conventional search box interface (e.g. little training).
Viable applications….
Q: I was interested to read the "On the cusp" by David Provost. In it he concludes that companies are on the verge of constructing very practical and commercially viable semantic applications. (Provost makes the point that Twine is succeeding because it has ditched semantic terminology and focused on the 'business mission'. While the terminology isn't obvious – the semantics under the hood is). Do you agree?
Brooke Aker: Sure I do. Business users don't care how it works, only that it does work and provides some visible, measurable value. Same is true for consumer-facing applications as well. Can I do something helpful and valuable that I could not do before? That's what matters.

Schauffler accepts football job with Mustangs
Forced out as the head football coach at Eagle Point High in January, Jacob Schauffler wasn't sure what direction he would go in the early aftermath...
Five members of the Class 3A state champion Cascade Christian baseball team received all-state recognition and head coach John Bruce was given state coach of the year honors recently.
The Challengers, who beat Santiam Christian 5-3 in the state championship game last Friday, won the Southern Cascade Hybrid title and finished 24-7.
"We had a great experience," Bruce said of the title game in Keizer. "It was a good game and we had a lot of fun."
Sophomore pitcher Isaiah Luzny and senior utility player Josh Brite made the state second-team list, while senior outfielder Jake Miller earned a spot on the third team and senior first baseman Justin Cheney and senior infielder Andrew Sha received honorable mention recognition.
Luzny, a left-hander, finished the year 10-1 and picked up the win in the state championship after throwing the final 11/3 innings. He pitched 141/3 shutout innings in the postseason and entered the title game with a 0.64 ERA and 92 strikeouts in 54.1 innings.
Luzny led the team in batting average (.440) and RBIs (22).
Brite owned a .429 batting average with 12 RBIs while playing the catcher, designated hitter and outfield positions.
This was Bruce's 10th year as the head coach at Cascade Christian. He taught at the school for 15 years. Prior to that, Bruce coached at South Medford, Medford, Rogue River and Salem Academy. Earlier in his coaching career, he worked as a graduate assistant at the University of Arizona and as a pitching coach at Willamette University.
As for receiving his coaching honor?
"They snuck it on me," Bruce said of his fellow coaches with a laugh.
Other local players who earned state honors were Rogue River senior utility player Brian Stinchcomb, the Southern Cascade Hybrid player of the year and a second-team state pick.
St. Mary's junior catcher Daniel Seus and Rogue River senior infielder Michael Freitas were named to the third team, and Illinois Valley senior outfielder Fred Hults made the honorable mention list.
Santiam Christian's Jeff Hendrix and Burns' Nolan Stampke were the co-players of the year in the 3A state voting.

For the second day in a row, North Surry's bats struggled as the Lady Greyhounds lost to West Wilkes 8-0.
The Hounds fell 1-0 to North Stokes on Tuesday.
After impressive wins against West Stokes, East Surry and Surry Central, the Hounds fell to 6-3 in Northwest Conference play.
Pitcher Marlee Bunker kept North in a scoreless tie through three innings, then the Lady Blackhawks broke through for three runs in the fourth.
The Hounds' defense has been very good at times this season, but a couple of errors helped the Hawks add three more runs in the fifth inning.
In the top of the sixth, a West Wilkes batter reached on a single, then took second on an outfield error. She went to third on a passed ball and made it home on a bloop single just past the second baseman.
North Surry wasn't scoring, but it wasn't from a lack of trying. The Hounds made solid contact many times, but couldn't drop balls in.
For example, North hit three straight balls hard in the sixth inning without getting a run.
Leadoff hitter Molly Martin slammed a line drive to center, but right at the fielder who made the catch.
Bailey Culler hit a line drive down the right-field line and legged out a triple.
Bunker hit a hard ball to right, but the outfielder made the catch moving toward the infield and fired a ball home quickly enough that Culler didn't try to tag up at third.
On the next play, Culler was picked off third by the catcher to end the inning.
The Hounds will look to right the ship on Friday as they host the Lady Sauras.
South Stokes is an interesting team, going 4-1 at home, but just 1-6 away. The only home loss for the Sauras was a 6-3 defeat to North Surry in the first meeting March 8. They have lost three straight in the Northwest Conference, including an 11-0 blanking at Surry Central.
After South Stokes, the Hounds will host Mount Airy on Tuesday. In their first meeting, North Surry won 18-0, but the Lady Bears have improved since then.

There's never been a greater need to impress customers and make them understand the value pharmaceutical companies offer. Following on from his article on the concept of mass customisation, Apodi's Tony Swift discusses how this theory can also be applied to two customer segments: the patient and the GP.
With the reduced number of blockbuster products entering the market, many sales and marketing departments are tasked with gaining market share for products and services that may have similar characteristics to competitor products. These departments are skilled at identifying traditional routes to market with the result that the promotional strategies deployed are often quite similar from one company to the next. The only real differentiator may be how much budget each company is willing to allocate to support respective products.
However, some companies are starting to implement mass customisation strategies, because as Jack Welch, former CEO of General Electric stated: "We have only two sources of competitive advantage: 1) The ability to learn more about our customers faster than the competition, and 2) The ability to turn that learning into action faster than the competition". These companies are focusing on identifying what value means to each individual customer, collating that information effectively and delivering the value in an efficient and economic way.
The patient
Traditionally, pharmaceutical companies have focused on engaging with GPs and other payer stakeholders rather than on building relationships with the end user – the patient. However, companies are realising that engaging with patients can lead to improved adherence results, better compliance and more appropriate use of their product. The attempts to engage with patients vary in levels of sophistication. At a basic level, companies are investing in digital IT platforms where websites attempt to inform patients about the therapy area and the products available. These sites might also attempt to improve adherence through reminder systems such as emails and texts to encourage compliance.
More sophisticated solutions now aim to identify key characteristics of patients and their behaviour and to customise the offering to them. For example, by identifying why a particular type of patient fails to adhere, the offering can be customised to that patient. By having a clear understanding of why people fail to comply, a company can then identify groups of patients whose reasons for non-compliance are very similar – i.e. one group responds better to online health monitoring, another to reminder systems, another to better education etc. As a result, each individual patient is allocated to a group and the adherence offering is then customised to each group.
Successful implementation of adherence programmes which include customised solutions to patients is still quite rare. The reasons for this may differ. However, I believe it all starts with the product-centred cultures that are prevalent in many companies. Historically, companies have been focussed on winning market share and new customers. Whilst this, of course, still remains important, many companies now have to focus on customer retention, customer loyalty and customer satisfaction. Where this strategy is in its infancy, many companies look to IT for salvation – if only it were that simple! Customer Relationship Management (CRM) is more than deploying similar marketing techniques and new information technology. It needs new skills, systems, processes, behaviours – in fact, a CHANGE IN CULTURE. This can only be driven by the leadership of the business once it has decided that CRM and mass customisation are a strategic imperative.
This new strategy, if executed effectively, can lead to a range of new tactical initiatives in the area of patient adherence, such as improved technology, clinician-based call centres, education programmes, patient acquisition programmes, patient service programmes and so on. With the appropriate systems and processes, these initiatives can be developed to provide real customised value to patients.
The GP
Because pharmaceutical companies have been engaging with GPs for many years, mass customisation programmes aimed at GPs rather than patients should be easier to deliver. They know where GPs are, often know them personally and still have access to many – although the ability to engage is declining quickly. Currently, however, successful customisation programmes aimed at GPs are few and far between. The reasons are similar to those above and result from the product-centred nature of most pharmaceutical companies. This product-centred approach can impact on the daily life of GPs in numerous ways, including:
An example of this is a detailed follow up I reviewed recently for a company. This was an extremely professional piece of work that identified the impact of the visits of a sales force on GPs. Multiple questions were asked about the ability of the representative to convey the product's characteristics and benefits – and from this point of view the exercise was worthwhile.
However, there were few questions based around what value each visit had created for individual GPs. The assessment was almost solely based on the product and what was important to the company, rather than what value could be created for the customer both now and in the future.
For companies wishing to deploy VALUE-BASED MASS CUSTOMISATION, the following key initial steps could prove useful. These steps would run alongside more product-focused activities, not replace them.
The role of IT
IT has a vital role in the development of value-based mass customisation strategies. I recently spoke to an expert in the industry, Charles Roots of Actis Sales Technologies, who explained that:
Many commentators have noted that the pharmaceutical industry is at a crossroads. With fewer blockbusters, governments facing huge financial challenges and health services looking for more value for money from all suppliers, times are hard. This is causing difficulties in the marketplace and many people have lost jobs in the resulting turmoil. Company leaders are under pressure to maintain and increase profitability and restructuring is increasingly common.
And yet comparatively, healthcare budgets are being protected and there has never been a greater need for a positive contribution from the pharmaceutical industry. Despite the distrust that has arisen between the industry and the NHS, enlightened leaders from both parties understand how a partnership between the two is of critical importance.
Whilst researching for this series of articles, it has become clear to me that this partnership can only prosper if the industry is willing to, and be allowed to, engage with the NHS in a positive and economically viable way. I believe pharmaceutical companies should play their part by focusing on delivering real value to all key stakeholders, including patients, GPs and other payer stakeholders. That is not to say this is absent in the industry, but there is no doubt that more can be done.
For those companies embarking on such a journey, the impact on customers (NHS and patients) could be dramatic. But it will also benefit employees of such companies. The vast majority of people want to do something worthwhile and being able to see how their work creates value for the customer and improves patient outcomes is just about as rewarding as it gets.

Mystic wrote:What happens to a reyvateil if she is somehow disconnected from the tower?
The Reyvateils receive energy from the Tower, which they afterwards use to manifest their Song Magic in the real world. Because of that, they are connected by something similar to an invisible umbilical cord to the Tower. In the space between that Symphonic Power (magical power) transmission line and the Reyvateil there is this: the [Boundary Gate], and while its external part is the True Nature region of the Cosmosphere, the inside is a shared area inside of the Tower. As the region where the individual is defined, there are various differences between the True Nature area of the Origins, Pureblooded Beta-types and Third Generations, which also explain why the suspension of the Tower affects them differently. Because the Third Generations have a completely organic body and a normal brain, they don't receive any influence from the suspension, while the Origins are one with the Tower, and they suspend as well if the Tower is suspended. That is because their brains are 100% in the Tower's memory, and if the Tower's power is suddenly cut, the memory becomes inaccessible. Again, the Boundary Gate is like defense mechanism to prevent the consciousnesses of the Reyvateil from breaking the privacy of each other, and to be able to keep free the human part of the Reyvateil from the Tower's administration, because the individuality of the Reyvateils wouldn't be able to form if it wasn't by this special barrier.
The True Self it's not aware of this, because this area is very far away from its feelings and thoughts. This Memory Bus is the concentration server where the thoughts of all the Reyvateils are gathered, and it's their source of power, as well. It's possible to enter here from the Soulspace, but actually, it isn't possible to hack Ar tonelico from here. Of course, because of her unmatched knowledge and technical skills, Mir was able to accomplish a feat that was thought to be completely impossible.
And the memories and minds of the Reyvateils are preserved in Ar tonelico through a shape called the Cosmosphere, in which their Individual Consciousnesses are located in the frequency bands up to 1.16x10^8Hz, while any frequency band higher this is where their Common Consciousnesses are located.
This, together with Linker and Re=Nation, was one of the 3 Hymmnos crafted during the time when the first tower was being built. Its function is shutting down the Tower, thus rendering all Song Magic useless and taking the Administrator with it. However, even if the Tower is shut down, all its vital facilities such as the Musical Corridor and the Plasma Bell remain active, as they were created after the Tower's completion. The Administrator then enters a suspended animation sleep until the Tower is restarted.
Niyaya wrote:It seems as though this is closely related to a question I had about Song Magic.
Niyaya wrote:A long time ago, shaman learned about the power the certain sounds had, correct? They weren't very powerful by themselves, but if an entire village got together and sung they could create an effect due to all of the people creating Dynamic Hymmno Waves.
Niyaya wrote:Flash forward to today. A reyvateil is able to sing and create these same Dynamic H-Waves.
Niyaya wrote:These H-Waves not only flow outward from the reyvateil (as I'm understanding it), but also through her cosmosphere (which is why higher levels of the cosmosphere allow the creation of more powerful song magic
-- the song is delivered more "purely" to the boundary gate), through the Binary Field, and to the Song Server. The Song Server processes the H-Waves and creates Dynamic D-Waves which are transmitted back to the reyvateil, converted into Static D-Waves, and, with them, an effect is created. ... I think.
Niyaya wrote:So my question is, if this is the case, then the power of the song comes from the Song Server, and the Song Server gets it's power from the reyvateil's Dynamic H-Waves. But... I don't think a reyvateil needs to sing a song to produce these Dynamic H-Waves of a purity that would be able to instruct the tower, she would just need to have a pure mindset -- a "wish", if you were.
Is that correct?
Mystic wrote:So I thought and decided it makes sense for them to be on a reyvateil's torso. Even if there's not an actual device within her, it still is an interface between the "real" world (D-Waves) and soulspace (H-Waves) The connection with a reyvateil's heart makes is what made me think of this.

Niyaya wrote:Unless she moved a great distance away, or the tower was shut off (like after EXEC_SUSPEND), it's not possible to become "disconnected". The tower is always generating power, which allows reyvateils to sing.
Niyaya wrote:That may be the case, but, as far as I'm aware, there's no way to disconnect from the tower. So that part has to be answered first... How would a reyvateil become disconnected from the tower?
bura wrote:about the unit "Hmag/s".....apparently it's some kind of rate unit, since it's "per-second", but a rate of what? energy? what is "Hmag" an abbreviation for, or, what is it supposed to mean? and then i've seen the "SHmag/s" unit also. it appears SHmag is a greater order of magnitude than Hmag, but how much greater? i've searched but haven't found any clarification anywhere.
Arkenses wrote:How do Reyvateil genetics work? Specifically, the chance of offspring becoming Reyvateils.
Is it as simple as one of the parents having the Reyvateil gene and the child being female?
Arkenses wrote:Does the same thing apply to IPDs?
Arkenses wrote:Expanding on that part, are Reyvateils born as IPDs, just without the negative symptoms of IPD or do they specifically have to have an outbreak? Does the negative form of IPD infect other Reyvateils or simply 'awaken' other IPD Reyvateils?
Reyvateil: I can't completely heal it, but... Does it feel any better?
Croix: ...Yeah, thanks...
Croix: Hey... You're a Reyvateil, right?
Croix: Aren't you afraid of the I.P.D. infection?
Reyvateil: ...Huh?
Reyvateil: Don't you know? I've been immunized against I.P.D.
aquagon wrote:Or maybe she is simply an Standard Reyvateil, which already makes impossible for her to contract the disease.
wizzardx wrote: or she was treated secretly with some kind of Dive Therapy reserved for Grand Bell support IPDs ^^;
wizzardx wrote:But you might also find this Toukousphere article interesting. It explains what would happen to Cocona if she left Infel Phira's range. Summary: Her Reyvateil abilities would become dormant, and she would no longer require Diquility installations, at least according to Jacqli (which is somewhat in disagreement with something that Infel posted here).
So I guess, what happens to a Reyvateil (particularly 3rd gens), depends on exactly how they are disconnected. If their Reyvateil abilities become dormant, then they'd become like a regular human (if that's possible for them). But if they are cut off by having their data corrupted/damaged/deleted in their Song Server, then they're in trouble.
bura wrote:speaking off the top of my head......that makes sense because i seem to remember Luca getting angry at some point because supposedly the Grand Bell knew that IPDs could be cured, but they had been suppressing that information for a long time.
bura wrote:edit: oops, forgot to say thanks, wizzard, for that response on Hmag/s. i guess they did leave enough dots behind for the players to connect. i was just hoping it was spelled out explicitly somewhere (since at work IRL, i'm used to being able to look up stuff i don't know in documentation of some sort, heh)

But if Jakuri's info is true, then Cocona singing in Sol Cluster would be impossible.

Tactical Network
The network concept stretches far beyond formal air traffic management or command & control centres.
Network Enabled Capabilities are becoming a must-have: modern military engagements and activities demand coordinated and informed decision making, based on fast, reliable, and usable information and communication systems.
Flexibility and scalability is a key concept here, allowing network support for a variety of needs and conditions, all of which can change in the short- and long-term.
Frequentis offers a range of flexible network solutions outside the core products designed for specific applications.
VCX systems, for example, connect legacy communication systems into an integrated network. Our iRIF systems provide modern radio gateways that turn disparate radio equipment into a robust VoIP-based communication network. Or you can setup a digital terrestrial trunk radio solution with eXTRAS.
Network capabilities also extend to tactical data exchange between various units and bases.
Even away from classic military engagements, there is a clear need for intelligent management of communications, for example, in emergency situations and incident control: Frequentis Intelligent Communication Management (ICM) is designed for just such a need.

HARTLAND >> A tool for municipalities to provide more affordable housing and a partner in additional money for these types of projects took center stage Friday morning during the Litchfield Hills Council of Elected Officials meeting, as chief elected officials from the region learned more about their specific housing markets.
David Fink, Partnership for Strong Communities' policy director, told the regional planning organization that their municipalities might be eligible for additional funding in providing affordable housing. The factors rely on median housing income, although the number of affordable housing continues to decrease.
Torrington is expected to get a slice of money from the organization's HOME Connecticut program, and according to Fink, the $4 million already invested in the program has made a large impact, hoping to bolster a fickle housing market in the state.
Connecticut ranks among the top six for housing costs, and 50th in the United States for new building, Fink said. The dead-last placement in unit construction relies on the state's aging population and emptying residences for those who have "empty nests" — or when families lose children to higher education — becoming unable to afford the larger houses.
Partnership for Strong Communities has created tools for municipal leaders to seek affordable housing options, including information about money aimed at remaking town centers. Five different towns throughout the state, Fink said, have used different methods to make the affordable housing dream a reality.
The HOME Connecticut program allows towns to create mixed-income communities with "both affordable and modest, market-rate homes" throughout the state. Towns that use the program are provided with incentives like planning grants with "no strings attached."
"A lot of what we've built is not what we need," Fink said, mentioning luxury housing and ranch-style property for elderly residents. "It's been hard to attract kids back from college," he added later.

Moniz sworn in as energy secretary
2 hours, 3 minutes ago
Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz said Tuesday he will put on hold about 20 applications to export liquefied natural gas until he reviews studies by the Energy Department and others on what impact the exports would have on domestic natural gas supplies and prices. A study commissioned by the Energy Department concluded last year that exporting natural gas would benefit the U.S. economy even if it led to higher domestic prices for the fuel.

Crews Working to Fireproof Buffalo Gap
By: Victor Sotelo
Updated: June 11, 2011
The Air-Land Emergency Resource Team has been brought in to help Buffalo Gap fight wild fires. Rather than fight the fire when it gets there, they are working to prevent them.
Officials with the team say the land around Buffalo Gap has been mismanaged, and now it time to fix it.
Their project is three fold. Clearing fuel makes the community safer from fire. Clearing the creek helps to prevent flooding and trimming the oak trees helps to prevent oak wild from coming into Buffalo Gap.
The project has been in the works for the last five years, and is rapidly advancing with help from the alert team.

When Google got flu wrong
When influenza hit early and hard in the United States this year, it quietly claimed an unacknowledged victim: one of the cutting-edge techniques being used to monitor the outbreak. A comparison with traditional surveillance data showed that Google Flu Trends, which estimates prevalence from flu-related Internet searches, had drastically overestimated peak flu levels. The glitch is no more than a temporary setback for a promising strategy, experts say, and Google is sure to refine its algorithms. But as flu-tracking techniques based on mining of web data and on social media proliferate, the episode is a reminder that they will complement, but
