Sony is all about giving free games away, and with the summer heat and long vacations quickly approaching, it needs a solid line-up to keep everyone happily playing a PlayStation product. That's why the Instant Games Collection continues to impress into yet another solid month.
Highlighting the line-up is Battlefield 3. Most people who play the series likely already own it, but those who have been dancing warily on the outskirts of the whole modern warfare gaming fad might finally enjoy a free chance to jump into Frostbite 2 and give things a whirl in preparation for Frostbite 3.
Retro gamers also have some solid choices this month, including a stab at the SEGA Dreamcast cult–classic Jet Set Radio. The one and only roller-skating graffiti game will be available in blooming HD. SNK's classic run 'n gun game Metal Slug XX will get a free release on the PSP and Vita, and Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee will also get an HD port available for free.
The remaining title is a cute little PlayStation Vita game called Dokuro, starring a little skeleton out to rescue a princess from a evil lord's castle. Think Mario's eternal hell and you have a decent image.
The PlayStation Instant Game collection continues to be the absolute best bargain in video games. If you haven't signed up, you're missing out on a lot of quality free content that Xbox Live and even the venerated Steam aren't willing to give away.

The Competition Commission has been provided with formal powers to conduct market inquiries from the 1st of April 2013, following the recent promulgation of Section 6 of the Competition Amendment Act 1 of 2009.
The proclamation was published by President Jacob Zuma in the Government Gazette on 8 March 2013. There is no indication on when the other provisions of the Competition Amendment Act may come into force.
Implications for the healthcare sector
As per an earlier e-Bulletin, it is generally considered that Chapter 4 A of the amended Act, dealing with market inquiries, will in the very near future be used to conduct an inquiry into the healthcare sector in South Africa.
Much has been said about the healthcare sector in South Africa in so far as the provision of services by that sector to the public is concerned, more particularly, the costs at which those services are provided. This is, of course, not the first time that participants in the healthcare sector have been engaged with the Competition Authorities. Certainly, debates rage within the private healthcare sector about the setting of tariffs, both reimbursement tariffs and ethical tariffs. In fact, the debate about setting ethical tariffs is currently afoot as between medical practitioners and dentists and the Health Professions Council of South Africa ("HPCSA") following notifications published by the HPCSA in newspapers calling for comments on a process to be used to determine ethical tariffs.
The prevailing view by the regulatory authorities within the healthcare sector in South Africa is that private healthcare is too expensive. Primary amongst the culprits that are fingered for expensive services are specialist medical practitioners and private hospitals. No doubt, any market inquiry will include those two constituencies.
In a recent presentation to the Parliamentary Portfolio Committee on Economic Development entitled "Market Enquiry into the Private Healthcare Sector" the Competition Commission stated that there were certain unique characteristics in the healthcare markets, such as information asymmetries, agency relationships and "distorted incentives".
The Commission recognised in that presentation that concerns had been voiced about pricing, costs and the state of competition and innovation in private healthcare. In its presentation to the Parliamentary Portfolio Committee on Economic Development, the Commission identified the purpose of a proposed inquiry into the private healthcare sector as, amongst other things, to inquire into the nature of the price determination in the private sector and to examine the interactions between selected segments and their contribution to healthcare costs.
Any market inquiry into the private healthcare sector would have to be approached with the recognition of the degree of regulation that already exists within the private healthcare sector in South Africa and the effect of such a regulation on the provision of healthcare services in South Africa.
A market inquiry into the private healthcare sector in South Africa needs to be cautiously approached and components of the private healthcare sector would, in all likelihood, be best encouraged to understand their rights in respect of competition legislation but also healthcare law and other pertinent legislation.
Companies in the healthcare and other sectors should, of course, proactively consider their business interactions and agreements (especially around price setting mechanisms, information exchanges and interactions with competitors), ahead of any formal announcement by the Commission as to the scope of its first market inquiry.

DST - NRF Centres of Excellence
The CoEs are physical or virtual centres of research that concentrate existing research excellence and capacity and resources to enable researchers to collaborate across disciplines and institutions on long-term projects that are locally relevant and internationally competitive in order to enhance the pursuit of research excellence and capacity development. The DST-NRF CoE funding instrument was launched in 2004 with the establishment of seven CoEs. Since then, three additional CoEs were established between 2009 and 2013 with five new CoEs established in 2014. The five key performance areas of the CoEs are: Research/knowledge production; Education and training; Information brokerage; Networking; and Service rendering. Over the past decade the Advisory Boards for each of the CoEs have played an important steering and oversight role in ensuring the success of the CoEs.

Man rescued after falling into empty tank
Ladder gave way, engineer says
Man rescued after falling into empty tank
Ladder gave way, engineer says
ESSEX JUNCTION, Vt. —
A man who fell 13-feet in an empty concrete tank at an Essex Junction waste-water treatment facility is being evaluated for his injuries at a Vermont hospital.
Essex Junction firefighters and Colchester Technical Rescue rigged ropes onto a ladder truck to hoist 68-year-old Ray Waszkowski out of the tank on Thursday afternoon.
Lakeside Equipment Corporation project engineer Don Cutler tells the Burlington Free Press Waszkowski was climbing down into the tank when the ladder underneath gave way. He fell about 13 feet.
Cutler says he and Waszkowski had been helping to renovate the Essex Junction Wastewater Treatment Facility.

BordLyron,Thanks. It's nice that it works for you. But individual stocks are just a lot of worry for me, as I have said before. And buying those 3 newsletters would seem to be a pretty big cost, and hard to offset, especially when just opening an account with little money initially. For the first year if I invest 12000 (best case), that's almost $600 in newsletters or 5%.How many picks a month do they make anyway ? And do they recommend relative amounts to invest in each ? And how long are their holding periods ? I see the ad for "hidden gems" for examples makes a claim of a 38% return, but is very short in details. 65 picks over 3 years in a small account seems like a large number - the transaction fees would be high, and the share numbers and profits low. And was the return accomplished by investing equally in all the picks over that 3 year periods, or just a select few and varied amounts ? If the newsletter is anything like this ad, I'll pass.

Very good, how-ever lacking...

"This is a very good box set. However, there is one thing missing: Benny Goodman's 1938 version of "Sing sing sing (with a swing).""
Gabe | 02/18/2001
(2 out of 5 stars)
"Being a fan of big bands, I looked forward to playing this CD set, especially the Glenn Miller portion. Unfortunately, I am familiar with Glenn Miller and these renditions were poor imitations. The notes on the box gave no hint as to who made the recordings. Other than a brief mention that the CDs were "made in Canada," I have no idea of the recording artists. But I strongly suspect that they are NOT original recordings, and NOT the latter day Glenn Miller band. This CD set is just okay. But, for a few dollars more I would prefer the "real thing." Color me "Disappointed!""
Good, but not great!
Gabe | Margate, Florida United States | 07/17/2001
(3 out of 5 stars)
"I am an avid listener of big band music. I know what original recordings sound like, and these are NOT the original recordings. Although the music is still nice, and these were performed by good musicians, I can still hear and notice the obvious difference from the originals. It just doesn't have the smoothness and "swing & sway" associated with the "real thing." It's a decent collection, but I prefer original recordings, with the original sound."

Choosing a Great Hotel Stay
When you are ready to book a vacation, you want to make sure that you are getting exactly what you need for a fun, relaxing time. One of the most important parts of planning your vacation will be the hotel stay. You want to find a hotel that is comfortable, accommodating and affordable for your budget. If you want to find the best hotel room for your needs, here are some things you should consider.
Decide on Your Priorities
When you are looking for Chicago hotels for your next vacation, you will first want to decide what your priority will be. Does your budget need to be the most important factor, or can you look for a hotel based on location or amenities? Often you can find promotions and discounts for your favorite hotel, so if budget is your main priority, look for these savings first so you can find a hotel that matches your needs.
Know What You are Paying For
Often vacationers are not sure what is included in the price of their hotel stay. To get the most for your money, it is important to understand what amenities come with the price. If your budget is your top priority, you can find discounts for rooms that may not have all of those extra amenities you don't need. Alternatively, if you want to have a great stay regardless of cost, you can find out what extra amenities are available during your stay.
Choose a Great Location
Choosing the location can be a bit of a research project, especially if you want to find a great neighborhood and still want to save money. The easiest way to narrow your choices is to first understand what types of transportation are available for that particular city. If your destination has a wide-ranging public transportation system, you can help save yourself some money by staying farther away from the most popular tourist spots. If you want convenience, you can find a hotel that will put you within a short walking distance of all the city's must-see attractions.
Planning your next vacation can be easy when you know exactly what you want from your hotel stay. Once that's in place, you can book your travel options and anticipate a great vacation.

A Revealing Look at the History of the Women's Swimsuit
Have you ever looked at those old black and white photos of women wearing what can perhaps best be described as muumuus to the beach, and thought how lucky you were that such a style has long since passed? Or, conversely, maybe you saw those women carefully hiding their imperfections under pounds and pounds of fabric and thought, if only that trend had stood the test of time! The women's bathing suit has undergone some pretty dramatic changes over the years, and designs that once left just about everything to the imagination have grown increasingly revealing in recent years. Nowadays, however, women can find just about any swimsuit style they desire, whether that's an itty-bitty bikini or some flattering (and flattening) shapewear.
Reflections From the Past
Today's most popular swimsuit styles run the gamut from innovative, even rash-resistant designs to those that conjure up images of iconic bathing suits of the past. Much of what the modern-day women wears to the beach comes from traditions of the past, from bikinis and high-waist styles to broad hats and even makeup. But which styles of the past have fallen out of favor, and which have stood the test of time? The infographic below reveals a timeline of the women's bathing suit, from what the Ancient Greeks and Romans wore to what you donned on your last coastal getaway.

Friday Night Lights, Season 5
Whether the Taylors stay in Dillon strikes me as the ultimate FNL values question. David, you made the case for the show's communitarian values. But if the Taylors leave, won't the message be that in its heart, FNL believes in individualism? This is OK with me—I'm also rooting for a charter school for Gracie Bell, the big-time college scene for Eric, and a counseling job with an office that's not in the basement for Tami. Do you think the writers started to make the case for the Taylors' departure with the game Vince was benched for? Lesson: It's dangerous for a group to be too dependent on any one of its members. The group has to be strong enough to allow for the passing of the torch. This is a version of communitarian values that makes room for individual achievement even if it takes you away from the group. It is very anti-Buddy, but that's OK, because we love Buddy precisely because he doesn't have to be our guiding light.
I'm not sure how Billy and Tim can add up to Coach, but that's the point—the replacement of a charismatic leader always seems impossible until it's done. Once the succession has taken place, the group adjusts. Especially when it's a high-school team, with students who turn over from year to year. Eric won't get his statue and he'll be lucky if anyone remembers the guy on the plaque.
I also think FNL can give Eric and Tami their send off without betraying its love for Dillon and small-town America. The town has always been warty and gritty as well as sepia-toned. Leaving it signaled success for Jason, Tyra, Smash, and Lyla. Vince will get out, too. As you said, Hanna, it's the stay-at-home characters, Luke and Tim, that we're meant to worry about. I thought Tim looked ghostly and ghastly—the stringy hair, the sunken cheeks. We don't know yet why he's bitter, but he has every reason to be. His line about the letters he'd written to Eric really got to me. Tim, writing Coach to apologize for failing him? When he can't explain what really happened? That is a wounding thought. And what are we supposed to think about Becky? She can't heal both Tim and Luke's hurt. I find Luke and Becky's romance sweet, but are we supposed to imagine them roping cattle as teen newlyweds, living next door to Luke's batshit mom?
I'm so glad, Hanna, that you mentioned the great line Vince's mother delivered in swatting Ornette away from their son. She is not my favorite actress, but she delivered that line with gusto, and it was past time for her to confound the beaten-down-timid-wife stereotype. Also, perfect that she called him O.

Contrast with Transmission Control Protocol. XTP does not employ congestion avoidance algorithms.

2) Boil the beans in lightly salted water, for about 4 minutes until tender, or microwave, covered, for about 2 minutes.
3) Halve and seed the avocado. Scoop the flesh from into the bowl of a food processor. Add the wasabi paste, edamame, ginger, lime juice, and salt and mix until smooth.
4) Transfer to a serving bowl. Stir in the spring onions and coriander and serve with a selection of crudites.

School's going well for us, and it was great to meet our children's new teachers. I think this year should go well. A new friend and a surprisingly early school camp are helping me feel hopeful.
I've been indulging in the usual cleaning once the children have returned to school, so that's keeping me busy. Lest you think this is a treat, it's not, but I'm finding as I age, order in the house increases my calm. Other people discover this a lot earlier, but there you go.
School pickup also provides me with me that oasis of calm, knitting time. I'm knitting along with Ysolda's Follow Your Arrow 2. I'm a week behind, but that's OK.
Australia and New Zealand are the joint hosts of this year's Cricket World Cup. There are three games being played in Canberra, and we're hoping to attend them all.
Last night we watched Bangladesh play Afghanistan. It was Afghanistan's first game in a world cup, so that was pretty exciting. I was really surprised though by how many Bangladeshi fans were present - it seemed like Manuka Oval was full of them.
The atmosphere was different than the other games we've been to - lots of excited cheering, flag waving and dancing. It was great - we had a fabulous time. Other things were different too - very long lines at the coffee stalls, and no waiting at the bars. It was also 6 hours after the start of play before the first Mexican wave. But it was a good one - five times around the stadium. There was only one other wave - and it was travelling in the opposite direction to the first. This one only made it once around before being interrupted by a wicket.
The game was good too - despite being beaten, Afghanistan didn't embarass themselves. The Bangladesh team had impressive fielding - always nice to see.
I was glad to see the Zing wickets we'd enjoyed during the Big Bash League final were being used in the World Cup - they're so easy to see as a spectator. The big screens didn't seem to show many replays, so it was doubly important not to miss a single wicket. One nice touch was the drummers stationed around the ground. Their accompaniment to the bursts of music between overs really involved the crowd and added a touch of magic,
Next week, the West Indies and Zimbabwe!

As a CrossFit coach and nutrition nerd, it's sometimes hard to take a step back and look at things from an outsider's perspective. For instance, I had always heard of the infamous question from women "Won't lifting weights make me bulky?" but it wasn't until recently that I actually got that question. (the answer is a resounding NO) Similarly, I can sometimes take for granted questions about diet, nutrition, and paleo. There are some folks who know their stuff and others who simply have no clue what's going on.
It can be confusing to hear about the Paleo diet since it goes against all conventional wisdom. And I'm not just talking about "magazine" conventional wisdom. I'm also talking about "stuff you hear from most doctors" conventional wisdom. However, through research and self-experimentation, we know that this stuff WORKS and this is why I cringe when I hear someone wants to lose weight, but is doing 5 metcons a week, restricting their calories, and sticking to whole grains and low-fat. NO BUENO! There have recently been a lot of discussions about nutrition at our box, so I thought I'd compile a "top 5" list of common questions from paleo newbies. Here we go:
1. What do you mean "calories don't matter?" I need to lose weight!
99% of clients that walk through our door want to "lose weight." I ask them to clarify that statement since I could theoretically cut my arm off and "lose weight." What they really mean is that they want to get rid of their excess body fat. So while a few people have come in wanting to improve performance, most priorities have to do with looking good naked.
In order to do this, you need calories! Ok, I admit, if you have 6,000 calories a day, you will probably gain weight. But restricting your body to 1200 calories a day is just a bad idea. Your body doesn't realize what you WANT and all it KNOWS is that it's starving. So it preserves body fat as an emergency response. How many people do you know that have been on Jenny Craig or Weight Watchers for years? Fat loss should NOT be hard and definitely not take that long. Focus more on QUALITY of food and less quantity. If you eat real food that grows and dies (protein in the form of meat, fish, or fowl; fat in the form of meat, coconut, avocados or some nuts/seeds; and carbs in the form of vegetables or some fruit) then you are pretty good to go!
2. Isn't fat bad? I don't want to get fat or have a heart attack!
This is probably my biggest pet peeve question when it comes to paleo/REAL food eating. It seriously disturbs me that there are millions of people out there that think eating fat will make them fat. Is fat calorically dense? Yes. Will eating a steak with fat in it make you fat? No way! Nor will it contribute to CVD (cardiovascular disease). You NEED fat and cholesterol for brain health, bone/joint functioning, and overall well being. It is hormonally NEUTRAL unlike sugar and carbohydrates which spike insulin levels which in turn signal the body to STORE excess sugar/carbs as fat. There is just too much to write about this, so check out these links for in-depth reasons how and why fat is not bad and in fact, it is GOOD for you: Mark Sisson on Saturated Fat; clip from Fat Head the movie
3. How do I get my calcium? I need strong bones!
Similar to fat, dietary calcium is not always the same as bone calcium. Also true for calcium supplements. Studies have shown that supplements actually create calcium deposits in the bone in concentrated areas instead of the desired effect of spreading out along the bone. To get good bone health, eat calcium rich foods such as kale and more importantly, do load bearing exercises such as back squats and impact exercises such as box jumps. Get good vitamin D (either from the sun or supplement) and don't be so neurotic about your bones!
4. But what do I do about breakfast? I need my cereal!
I think it's really funny when people find out about the paleo diet and comment that it doesn't give you a lot of choices, but then they eat the same cereal every single morning. What the…?! The biggest paradigm shift here is to think about breakfast as just another meal aka another lunch or dinner. If you love breakfast for dinner, how come you can't have dinner for breakfast? Steak and eggs are one of my favorite, or if I'm at work, I'll heat up some chicken sausage or leftover meat from the night before. Fruit is fine, but not too much. And depending on how compliant you are with the quality of food and body composition, intermittent fasting (IF) could be a great way to reset the body's insulin sensitivity (plus it's a sneaky way to restrict calories over time without the detriment of a program like Weight Watchers). If I were a politician, my campaign would be MEAT FOR BREAKFAST! …..or something like that.
5. What about eating out/birthday parties/etc.? I need to let loose!
This is a sticky one, but for most people who can control themselves, eating a "non-paleo" item every once in awhile will not be the end of the world. I wrote about the 80/20 rule as one of my original posts, and for the most part, my stance has stayed the same. I think you should basically not PLAN a cheat day or cheat meal, but if it just happens to come up, then just don't go crazy and eat half a birthday cake. If you are going out to eat, don't eat the bread and order a slab of meat (steak is always a good go-to) and some veggies. Order a burger without the bun. I also think that as your body becomes accustomed to eating clean, it reacts worse when you go off the rails. This creates a natural aversion to ordering pasta for your dinner or having pizza and beer at a party. On the other hand, there are some people who just should NOT stray. Just like drug addicts or alcoholics, even just a bite of a cookie could send that person 100 steps backwards and create an avalanche of food disaster. You need to be the judge of how strict you want to be and what your goals are. Most people do fine with a 30 day challenge which allows them to see the full benefits of going Paleo. (fat loss, energy gain, better complexion, etc) Only after that would you maybe consider looser guidelines for your way of living.
What other common questions do people have when starting or learning about Paleo?
How has your views of Paleo evolved over time?

Dolomite launches new Droplet Chip
Providing rapid advances in micro-droplet research
Ideal for producing and analysing microemulsions, the innovative Small Droplet Chips are currently the smallest commercial droplet-making chips available, allowing the user to create micro-droplets from 5μm to 30μm in diameter. The devices feature a 14 x 17μm X-junction with hydrophobic and hydrophilic surface properties and benefit from on-chip filters which are provided at chip entry to prevent microchannel blockage.
Microemulsions offer increased stability, a higher interfacial area and the capacity to solubilize both aqueous and oil-soluble compounds. Creating monodispersed microemulsions enables breakthroughs to be made in applications such as food research, materials science and drug delivery, where smaller droplets allow improved control over the targeting and release of active compounds. The near circular microchannel profile at the junction of the Small Droplet Chip is ideal for stable and controllable droplet formation.
Operating over a wide pressure range up to 30bar, the Small Droplet Chips are compatible with Dolomite's Top Interface 4-way and Linear Connector 4-way, allowing quick and reliable fluidic connection to 1.6mm OD tubing. The Small Droplet Chip is also available in quartz for improved optical transmission.
In addition, Dolomite offers custom solutions for the generation of microemulsions below 3μm in diameter. For further information on Dolomite's range of Micro Droplet Systems as well as a complete portfolio of microfluidic products including connectors/ interconnects, pumps, valves and custom devices please visit www.dolomite microfluidics.com.

Mumbai, July 9:
A Jet Airways Mumbai-Dubai flight was diverted to Muscat following a bomb threat tracked on a Twitter account on Thursday afternoon, officials said here.
Flight 9W 536, which departed from Mumbai at 12.46 p.m. for Dubai, had 54 passengers and seven crew members onboard, a Jet Airways spokesperson said.
After the bomb threat was tracked on a Twitter account by a man named Surender Pratap, Jet Airways immediately swung into action and diverted the flight to the nearest airport, Muscat in Oman, where it landed safely around 2.50 p.m.
Omani security agencies carried out a search of the aircraft, baggage and cargo, according to information received here.
All passengers and crew disembarked without any incident and were taken to the Muscat airport terminal where they will be taken care of till the flight is cleared for take-off.
The airline and airport authorities are also tracking down the Twitter account from where the threat with the specific flight number and take-off time were mentioned, the officials said. (IANS)

SummaryAn outstanding RPG... will keep you playing for hours on end.
The GoodThis game has one of the most non-linear storylines around -- great for an RPG. You are free to wander the world, cities, dungeons, caves, and elemental planes... solving minor quests as you gradually learn more about the main plot. Character development is stunning, magic is handled well, there are scores of interesting items and weapons, and there are a host of NPC hirelings who you can have journey with your party.
Characters have an assortment of skills available. Some assist just the character, while others benefit the entire party. Auto-mapping is a skill that can be learned; if you like this feature, have a character learn the Cartography skill. If you don't, then don't. Normally I'm not a huge fan, but it's worth having maps in this game. Trust me.
I also like that your characters can gain levels to their hearts' content. The maximum level is 255, created only by the programming limitations of the day. You can still train and add hit points over level 255, but 255 is the maximum that can be displayed.
The BadA few things. First, the sounds leave much to be desired (particularly the tune that plays after you kill a monster in combat -- it quickly gets old). Thankfully, they can be turned off.
Another gripe I have is that you can only save your game at an Inn in one of the cities. While not unusual for games of the time, it makes it frustrating to make one wrong move deep in a dungeon, and have to then restore your game and begin the entire dungeon again.
And finally, the puzzle at the end is needlessly confusing. I won't say too much about it, but I solved it and I could not figure out exactly how to type in my solution. Add to this a real-time "countdown", and I was quite despondent (especially since the final puzzle requires you to hack 'n slash your way through a particularly nasty dungeon to get to it).

Parks / Nova
Scotia / Cape
Breton National Park
Originally, the Micmac fished along the Gulf
at Ingonish, and there are some historical references
to Norsemen landing on the shores of Cape Breton
in the 10th century. John Cabot reputedly made
his first landfall in the New World at Aspy
Bay off the east coast of Cape Breton in 1497.
In 1521 we know that Portuguese fishermen camped
on the Atlantic side. Early settlement at major
centres such as Louisbourg, Sydney and Ingonish
were fishing communities. The walled city of
Louisbourg was constructed by the French in
1713 to guard the Atlantic approaches to Quebec
and the St. Lawrence, primarily from the British.
Its site extended over 100 acres, encompassing
a fortress, a vast harbour and an entire village.
Obsolete before its completion, it surrendered
on both of the two occasions it was attacked.
In 1745 it was sacked by a force of New Englanders
and in 1758, its capture by James Wolfe on his
way to take Quebec led to the end of French
rule in Canada. Expelled from mainland Nova
Scotia, Acadians moved northward in the 1700's
followed by extensive Scottish immigration from
1791 - 1828. Lone Shieling, set in the deciduous
forest that has never been cut, is a reproduction
of a crofter®s hut. Erected in 1942, it commemorates
the Scottish heritage and symbolizes Cape Breton's
links with the Scottish Highlands, former home
of many of the island's first settlers.

Ford Federal Direct Loan; Notice of Deadline and Submission Dates for Receipt of Applications, Reports, and Other Documents for the 2001-2002 Award Year SUMMARY: The Secretary announces the deadline and submission dates for receiving documents from institutions and applicants for assistance under the Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Work-Study (FWS), Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG), Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL), William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan (Direct Loan), Federal Pell Grant, and Leveraging Educational Assistance Partnership (LEAP) programs for the 2001-2002 award year. The FSEOG (84.007), FFEL (84.032), FWS (84.033), Federal Perkins Loan (84.038), Federal Pell Grant (84.063), LEAP (84.069), and Direct Loan (84.268) programs, administered by the U.S. Department of Education (Department), provide assistance to students attending eligible institutions of higher education to help them pay for their educational costs. Deadline and Submission Dates: See Tables A and B at the end of this notice. Table A provides deadline dates for application processing and receipt of Student Aid Reports (SARs) or Institutional Student Information Records (ISIRs). Table B provides the earliest submission and deadline dates for submitting Federal Pell Grant Disbursement Records to the Department's Recipient Financial Management System (RFMS). Any disbursement record received prior to the earliest submission date is rejected. The Secretary may initiate an adverse action, such as a fine or other penalty, for an institution's failure to submit a Federal Pell Grant disbursement record within the required 30-day timeframe. That failure may also result in an audit or program review finding for an institution. In general, an institution must submit a Federal Pell Grant disbursement record no later than 30 days after disbursing a Federal Pell Grant to a student. The Secretary considers a disbursement of Federal Pell Grant funds to occur on the earlier of the date that the institution: (a) Credits those funds to a student's account in the institution's general ledger or any subledger of the general ledger, or (b) pays those funds to a student directly. The Secretary considers a disbursement to have occurred even if institutional funds are used in advance of receiving the program funds from the Department (34 CFR 668.164(a)). Table B also provides the latest date an institution may request Year-To-Date records and administrative relief. Proof of Delivery The Secretary accepts as proof of delivery if the documents were submitted by mail or by non-U.S. Postal Service courier, one of the following: (1) A legible mail receipt with the date of mailing stamped by the U.S. Postal Service. (2) A legibly-dated U.S. Postal Service postmark. Note: The U.S. Postal Service does not uniformly provide a dated postmark. Before relying on this method of proof of mailing, check with the post office at which the submission was mailed. The Secretary strongly encourages the use of First Class Mail. (3) A dated shipping label, invoice, or receipt from a commercial courier. (4) Other proof of mailing or delivery acceptable to the Secretary. Other Sources for Detailed Information on the Application and Automated Processes A more detailed discussion of the student application process for the Federal Pell Grant Program is contained in the Department's following publications: 2001-2002 Student Guide. Funding Your Education. 2001-2002 High School Counselor's Handbook. A Guide to 2001-2002 SARs and ISIRs. 2001-2002 Federal Student Financial Aid Handbook. A more detailed discussion of the institutional reporting requirements for the Federal Pell Grant Program is also contained in the Federal Student Financial Aid Handbook. These materials may be found at the Information for Financial Aid Professionals web site at: http://www.ifap.ed.gov. Applicable Regulations: The following regulations apply: (1) Federal Pell Grant Program, 34 CFR part 690, (2) Student Assistance General Provisions, 34 CFR part 668, and (3) Institutional Eligibility under the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended, 34 CFR part 600.

The gEDA project has produced and continues working on a full GPL'd suite and toolkit of Electronic Design Automation tools. These tools are used for electrical circuit design, schematic capture, simulation, prototyping, and production. Currently, the gEDA project offers a mature suite of free software applications for electronics design, including schematic capture, attribute management, bill of materials (BOM) generation, netlisting into over 20 netlist formats, analog and digital simulation, and printed circuit board (PCB) layout.
The gEDA project was started because of the lack of free EDA tools for POSIX systems with the primary purpose of advancing the state of free hardware or open source hardware. The suite is mainly being developed on the GNU/Linux platform with some development effort going into making sure the tools run on other platforms as well.
(Source: gEDA homepage)
Installing geda-gaf will give you the schematic editor and attribute editor, which is available in the official repositories. It may also be necessary to install ttf-dejavu and ttf-liberation to get the correct font scaling.
Installing pcbAUR will give you the PCB editor, available from the AUR.
Also you can install xgsch2pcbAUR (AUR), graphical interface to the gsch2pcb command-line tool for converting *.sch to *.pcb.
First PCB
Create schematic symbol
You can create new as you are creating schematics themselves. Open an empty file
# gschem mysymbol.sym
and add pins with
and attributes with
. After you are done, do not forget to translate your symbol to absolute zero with

Information from Glasgow City Council
Did you know that if you become unable to make decisions for yourself – because of illness or injury for example – no-one else can make those decisions for you, unless you have given them legal powers to do so?
Glasgow City Council and NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde, together with local law firms, Alzheimer Scotland and Scottish Care, have joined forces to raise awareness about the importance of having a Power of Attorney.
Everyone is being encouraged to "Start the Conversation" with their loved ones as the first step to giving Power of Attorney to someone they trust.
Power of Attorney can cover your financial affairs (e.g. managing your bank account) and your welfare (e.g. deciding where you will live if you are no longer able to decide for yourself).
More information can be found on the Glasgow City Council website.

The best documentary film at Sundance this year was given to a film with the title "God Grew Tired of Us".
There is a documentary that already existed called "Lost Boys of Sudan".
Same subject. Different movies.
'God Grew Tired of Us' had some celebrity-power: narrated by Nicole Kidman and executive-produced by Brad Pitt. I wonder if Angelina Jolie's involvement with all this activism stuff, and the UN, and baby adoption stuff rubbed off on Pitt. I wonder how Kidman got involved in this kind of stuff, now that Drudge has pointed about she's about to follow Jolie's footsteps as some sort of UN-type rep. And I wonder if any of these folks are Green Party members?
Yeah, me neither. I'm really starting to think, though, that Bush's extremism, even for an American president, is pushing people to do something more than just sit back and watch the world crumble.
As far as the movie goes, it sounds good. I can't even imagine what it must be like to go from Africa to middle America. Oh wait - I can, if only a little bit - I once traveled from Atlanta to Houston, the dirty, stripped-malled, concreted asscrack of America - that was pretty shocking.
I'm sure Quinceañera is a great flick, too - it's just that I did some Sudan/Darfur-related stuff back in the day, so was very familiar with the refugee problem there, thus I quickly latched onto 'God Grew Tired of Us' as being a flick I'd want to see.

Dolphins Defensive Back Fined, Suspended After Tweets About Gay NFL Player
Miami Dolphins defensive back Don Jones was fined and suspended from team activities after he took to Twitter to voice his opinion on the now-famous kiss between openly gay defensive end Michael Sam and his partner.
After Sam was drafted by the St. Louis Rams on Saturday, cameras showed an overjoyed Sam embracing and kissing his boyfriend. Jones, in apparent reaction to the moment, tweeted 'Omg.' Someone was quick to ask if the tweet pertained to Sam and his boyfriend. Jones clarified, responding to the question by tweeting 'horrible.'
The tweets have since been deleted, but a New York Post reporter managed to snag what appears to be a screenshot of the tweet. Warning, the image contains an expletive.
The Dolphins responded immediately, fining Jones and suspending him from team activities until he goes through "educational training,'' according to the Associated Press. Dolphins head coach Joe Philbin called the comments "inappropriate and unacceptable'' and said they are not in line with the team's standards, a CBS Sports report said.
On Sunday, Jones issued an apology to Sam, as well as to the Dolphins. He admitted the comments were "inappropriate'' and took "full responsibility.''
The incident comes just days after Miami center Mike Pouncey tweeted "I can't wait for our gifts he's getting us'' following the Dolphins' selection of offensive tackle Ja'Wuan James in first round of the NFL Draft. That tweet got plenty of attention because Pouncey was implicated in the scandal surrounding the alleged hazing and bullying of former Dolphins offensive lineman Jonathan Martin.

What inspires our guests to return year after year and refer their friends to us? Judging from the countless letters of appreciation we receive each year, the most important factor is our exceptional guides. Experienced, professional, and with an unquenchable sense of fun, most were born and raised in the countries where they guide, and those who aren't natives are long-time residents and local experts. Supremely knowledgeable about their destinations, our guides delight in immersing you in the local culture and introducing you to people, places, and flavors that even many locals have never discovered!
Our guides are outstanding cyclists and superb teachers who are dedicated to helping you ride your very best. They're also multitalented individuals – sommelier, architect, firefighter, translator, musician, artist, bike and ski instructor, photographer, and mechanic are just some of their roles off the bike – whose wide-ranging experience and tremendous sense of fun enhance every tour they lead.
There's no end to the ideas our guides conjure up for dopo il giro (after the ride), from gelato strolls to spontaneous serenades to late-night dips in the Mediterranean, or even dancing the tarantella in the local piazza!
Ciclismo guests consistently give our guides the highest ratings on evaluations, and these superb leaders are the number-one reason travelers return to travel with us over and over again.

Ala, City of Velvet
Welcoming village in Trento, it's been awarded an Orange Flag by the Touring Club Italiano
Having become famous in the 18th century for its production of silk velvets, Ala retains a Baroque atmosphere. The pride of the city is its historical center – ranked among Trentino's most beautiful, and its Antique Piano Museum.
In 2007, Ala, which in the 18th Century was renamed "City of Velvet", was awarded Touring Club Italiano's Orange Flag.
During the Summer, its historic city center, one of Trentino's best-preserved, comes alive thanks to the "Ala, Città di Velluto" event. Squares, buildings and gardens open up with shows of art, music and poetry. In October, Ala participates in Giornata delle Bandiere arancioni ("Orange Flag Day"). If you want to re-live the splendor of the 18th Century, we suggest participating in a guided tour with costumed characters.
You will find a prestigious collection of period piece pianos of Mozart, Schubert, Beethoven and Chopin at the Museo del Pianoforte Antico (Antique Piano Museum), in the elegant halls of Palazzo De' Pizzini – Di Lenna, Soon, at Palazzo Taddei, today in the restoration phase, the Provincial Textiles Museum, in the future, it will open.
In a dominant position over the historic center, you can see the Church of St. Maria Assunta, of very ancient origins. North of the city, along the path that runs along the ancient "Roman road", stands the majestic San Valentino sanctuary, an ancient place of worship. Just a few kilometers from Ala, along the state road that leads to Verona, you will find the ancient Romanesque church of San Pietro in Bosco.
Atop the high plains of the Lessinia you can practice Nordic walking, pedaling mountain bikes or walking among the Alpine huts with the characteristic stone roofs. Valle dei Ronchi is the departure point for excursions along the "Piccole Dolomiti (Small Dolomites)".

A sterling job in leading research that is protecting South Africa's natural resources has finally paid off. Water Research Commission Research (WRC) Manager, Mr Bonani Madikizela was recently recognised by South African environmental NGO WESSA, who presented him with an honorary lifetime achievement award at their 90th Anniversary celebration held in Skukuza, Kruger National Park.
The WESSA Award Ceremony on Saturday, 17 September 2016, celebrated 90 years of the organisation's existence under the WESSA motto 'Caring for the Earth'.
Madikizela was amongst those selected for one of the '90 Lifetime Conservation Achiever Awards' , a category which was introduced for the occasion and which provided a unique opportunity to acknowledge 90 living individuals who have dedicated their lives to conservation in South Africa.
The prestigious event paid special tribute to a wide range of outstanding environmental achievements. The Lifetime 90 Achievement Award presented to Madikizela was in recognition of his sterling work in fighting against the degradation of South Africa's freshwater ecosystems and for the restoration of biodiversity in natural resources.
Madikizela has spent more than 20 years working with natural resources, focusing in particular on water resource quality and bio-monitoring with respect to inland freshwater ecosystems such as rivers, dams and wetlands. Madikizela is a research manager in the Water Resources unit at the WRC, and has previously worked at the Departments of Water Affairs and Environmental Affairs. As WRC research manager Madikizela's role includes prioritizing, supporting, and coordinating research done by a variety of organizations and independent consultants across South Africa.
Due to historic lack of attention to wetland health and biophysical integrity, Madikizela's focus is currently biased towards wetlands and also includes river rehabilitation, with the intention to provide methods and guidelines that ensure sustainable utilisation of these resources, but without furthering biodiversity loss. This quest has led to interactions with experts in aquatic ecosystem research and development at national and international levels.
WRC CEO Mr Dhesigen Naidoo said, "We congratulate Madikizela for receiving such a prestigious award, which positions the WRC personnel as leaders in the applicability of research that is managed in a way that encourages exploratory and innovative investigations."
While expressing his gratitude for the award, Madikizela said," The 90 Lifetime Conservation Achiever Award means a lot in boosting one's self esteem. Even more inspiring is to be recognised at the time when the country is in dire need of water specialists that need to be turning their heads around due to the ongoing water scarcity challenges facing South Africa".

I've Had My Say
Have you had yours?
I'm going to pour myself a glass of wine and sit back to watch history unfold. This is probably the most important election I've ever voted in. I don't know how close it's going to be, but I think we're in for a long night before the outcome is clear.
If you were eligible and didn't vote, shame on you. People are dying in Iraq and Afghanistan for a right that we take so cavalierly. But then again, if you don't care enough to vote then I probably would feel better off if you didn't have a say in how this country is run.
It angers me that a cruel murderous fiend half way around the world thinks that he can influence this election by offering "security" to those states who don't vote for Bush. I don't think that such an "offer" should influence the way anyone votes, regardless of who you support. As Benjamin Franklin said, "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." I think that bin Laden's screed against America reveals that he has absolutely no understanding as to what this country is about. But that doesn't prevent his hatred from being directed our way.
So, I'll sit here tonight and watch the returns and listen to the pundits have their say. In the end the only poll that counts is the one taken in voting booths around this country. I pray that this country makes the right choice. If it's not the guy I support, then I hope I'm wrong about who should be in the White House. The world is at a very dangerous crossroad right now.

Long Weekend
We got back from my brother-in-law's wedding up in Highland Falls, New York yesterday. The reception was at the Bear Mountain Inn just south of West Point. We had a great time.
Not wanting the good times to end, after getting back we all got into costume and decided to haunt my brother-in-law's neighborhood. My wife and I decided to dress up as rock musicians with long hair and truly outrageous clothes.
Now it's time to get serious with the election tomorrow. Regardless of who you plan to vote for, get out and vote. Enough people died for you to have that right so you might as well exercise it.

October Skies
One of the nice things about our condo is that it has a balcony that faces south with an unobstructed view of the sky. I'll be out there tonight watching the total lunar eclipse with my Meade ETX.
An eclipse used to be viewed by some primitive cultures as a bad omen. If the Red Sox should lose tonight, does that mean that they'll go on to lose the next three after that? If that happens then there really is a curse.

On Our Way Back
We stopped at a rest area on the Parkway to get some coffee. When we came out there was a woman screaming for help saying that she couldn't wake her husband in the back of her car. He'd been throwing up and had laid down because he wasn't feeling well. Apparently, she'd been unable to wake him for about 10 minutes. We called for an ambulance and my brother-in-law found a paramedic who just happened to be in the fast food restaurant. He started CPR until the ambulance came. I don't think the guy made it. He seemed to have been dead for a while before the woman tried to wake him. I don't think I ever felt so helpless watching the EMT's work on him with his wife screaming and pleading all the while. I didn't know what to say or do for her. It just makes you think.

- Responsive Web Design : To create a responsive web design we need to kept few things in mind. I have mentioned those thing in my article below.
i) Design Architecture : Found this informative Article on http://webdesignerwall.com/tutorials/setting-breakpoints-in-responsive-design where they point for creating media queries for different screen sizes. According to its article we need to write CSS on basis of 5 different screen sizes. These are 1000 larger then, 1000px,760px, 600px, 480px, and 320px.
Screen SizeHTML Architecture
Larger then 1000px 3-column with fixed side header 1000px to 760px 2-column with top header Below 760px single column layout
It covers all types of machines used to browse the web. To full fill this approach we can use common pattern of design the web layout.
ii) Meta Tag : Mobile browsers render pages in a virtual "window" (the viewport), usually wider than the screen, so they don't need to squeeze every page layout into a tiny window (which would break many non-mobile-optimized sites). Users can pan and zoom to see different areas of the page.
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0
iii) Media Query : Web layout can appear to be restricted, sometimes unreadable on small mobile devices, and at other times too large on large wide screen displays. This is where media queries come in. Using this we can create different CSS attribute for specific class for different resolution. So they are still readable in small screen too.
Media query comprises of a media type and one or many expressions to limit the scope of style sheets. Inside the media library, you can establish media queries such as "width," "height," or "color." With the help of the media queries, you can customize presentations to a specific range of output devices without actually changing the content.
Below is example of writing media query.
<link rel="stylesheet"media="(max-device-width: 320px)"
ref="mobile.css" />
media="(min-width: 1600px)"
href="widescreen.css" /
iv) Relative Font Size : don't use font size in Pixels (px) as its is used for fixed. Instead of using pixels use em or %. Here is table of selecting font-size of EM equivalent to PX .
Pixels EMs Percent Points 6px 0.375em 37.5% 5pt 7px 0.438em 43.8% 5pt 8px 0.500em 50.0% 6pt 9px 0.563em 56.3% 7pt 10px 0.625em 62.5% 8pt 11px 0.688em 68.8% 8pt 12px 0.750em 75.0% 9pt 13px 0.813em 81.3% 10pt 14px 0.875em 87.5% 11pt 15px 0.938em 93.8% 11pt 16px 1.000em 100.0% 12pt 17px 1.063em 106.3% 13pt 18px 1.125em 112.5% 14pt 19px 1.188em 118.8% 14pt 20px 1.250em 125.0% 15pt 21px 1.313em 131.3% 16pt 22px 1.375em 137.5% 17pt 23px 1.438em 143.8% 17pt 24px 1.500em 150.0% 18pt
v) Relative Padding / Margin / Line-Height / Width : As like Font-size we also avoid using Pixels for Padding / Margin / Line-Height / Width etc.. Use % instead of pixels for proportional space and gaping.
vi) Word-Break Property : Don't forget to use word-Break CSS property. Because in small devices we have small screen to as a view area and if we need to give any URL or TEXT have no space and bigger length then device screen it will break out your design. So using word-Break property is safe side.
Its a part of CSS3 which is not supported by all browsers but its good to be in practice. Here is example to use
.break-word { word-wrap: break-word; }
vii) Flexible images : You should practice setting the max-width 100%, which means that an image will never exceed the size of its containing element. You can also apply this rule to other forms of embedded media like videos.
