I found this awesome easy to make breakfast muffin recipe – it's especially useful to grab when you're busy and on the run. Breakfast is statistically the most important meal of the day and these little gems ensure that when I have a busy day planned I don't skip it. I know they look a little small and you're probably wondering how they fill you, but trust me they do and they are slow release, which means 1 muffin gives you enough energy to sustain you till lunch.
I found the recipe on Food in a minute (link above) and although I changed the recipe up slightly, it still turned out perfectly. I did some subtle substitutions as I am trying very hard to lessen my gluten intake. So instead of the 1 cup flour… I used 1/2 Almond Flour and 1/2 organic rolled oats. I also substituted the 2%milk with low fat coconut milk. You can also substitute the peaches with any other variety of canned fruit – just make sure it's the reduced sugar option.
Since deciding to introduce healthier alternatives to my diet without drastically changing my eating I've found I actually enjoy the whole lifestyle and would recommend that anyone wanting to lose a few extra kilo's or wanting to improve their healthy foods intake use this method, rather than committing to a harsh diet that tells you it's okay to enjoy cheat days… this way I don't need a cheat day and I actually look forward to meals as I'm not being instructed to eating cardboard or drink flavorless soups.
Valentines day is also coming up, so I experimented with making some heart shaped muffins in my pink ramekins, and for an extra bit of love I dusted them lightly with some icing sugar. If you're keen to give this a try you can pretty them up with extra fruit on the side, some coffee/tea/juice and flours from your garden, for that special someone on valentines day!
I hope you're enjoying these posts… whilst business is quiet it gives me a great opportunity to share and connect with you guys on a different level.
Happy Baking

By Ray Gano
In conducting research, I came across and interview with Nikolas Schreck. For those who do not know who he is, Nikolas Schreck is married to Zeena LaVey.
Name sounds familiar, because Zeena is the daughter of Anton LaVeFy. Anton LaVey was the founder and head of the Church of Satan.
What caught me in this interview is that Schreck called the twenty first century, "The Century of Satan." The interview was in 1988.
Interestingly enough, I had to agree with his proclamation.
See this is the first century that I know of that did not have any Christian influence in the beginning. In the 20th century we still had a very active and ongoing church.
But today, and many of you will agree, the church is lacking in many ways and this is becoming the century of Satan.
The Goals of Satanists
I do not want to sound like I am pro-Satanist in this article, but I do give credence to the person who has truly made their choice as to whom they serve. The negative is that instead of God they are choosing to serve Satan. Like it or not, they have laid down the gauntlet and they are not "lukewarm" like many people today.
Bob Dylan said it best " It may be the devil or it may be the Lord, but you gotta serve somebody."
High Priest & Magus Peter H. Gilmore claims that if you were to define a Satanist, they are atheists who have come to the conclusion that they themselves are god and the only life that they have is the life of the here and now.
In fact, you can watch an interview with Gilmore here — https://youtu.be/W4SraX4inJw
What I found in watching this is what he said make a lot of sense, that is if you are not a Christian.
Almost everything he promoted is the self determination that secular humanism promotes today.
Heck, if you met this guy on the street, he would seem like a pretty likable guy to most people.
And this is what I found so interesting, this guy is likable, what he promotes sounds reasonable to the average non-Christ loving individual.
Then it dawned on me on what Schreck said, he was correct. This is the century of Satan and it is Satan's century.
Satan represents man as just another animal, sometimes better, more often worse than those that walk on all-fours, who, because of his "divine spiritual and intellectual development," has become the most vicious animal of all!
Satan represents all of the so-called sins, as they all lead to physical, mental, or emotional gratification!
Source – The Nine Satanic Statementsby Anton Szandor LaVey – The Nine Satanic Statements originally appeared in The Satanic Bible, © 1969
So What Got Me Down This Path of Thought?
I forget what or where I was reading, something to do with transhumanism and I got led down a bunny trail.
You know how it is. One minute you are looking up a recipe on how to cook Spanish rice, three hours later you are researching transhumanism and the ideas behind it.
Many years ago, I was in a B Dalton Bookstore and I picked up a copy of The Satanic Bible and one portion of it stood out to me.
In it Anton LaVey was talking about the future, what the future holds and the quest for ultimate self-gratification on all levels. See, that is the core of Satanism, " I want it all, I want it all and I will do everything in my own power to get what I want."
Funny, Lucifer strived for the same thing in the "Five I Will's"
12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! [how] art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
BUT… How does God respond?
15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
I his book The Satanic Bible Anton LaVey mentioned a five point plan to help define Satanism.
It was point number 4 that has stayed with me all this time and something that I have been keeping an eye out for a number of years.
What was Point #4?
Development and production of artificial human companions
The forbidden industry. An economic "godsend" which will allow everyone "power" over someone else. Polite, sophisticated, technologically feasible slavery. And the most profitable industry since T.V. and the computer.
Source – Pentagonal Revisionism: A Five-Point Program by Anton Szandor LaVey © 1988
The Rise of Robotics and The Dehumanization of Man
With the forced minimum wage hike taking place in many states, companies are now turning to artificial intelligence, AKA robots to do the menial tasks that teenagers used to do Like work at McDonalds.
Ray Kurzweil, director of engineering at Google, anticipates that by 2029 robots will have reached human levels of intelligence.
But it is Anton LaVey that predicted (or with the help of other satanists) a future where artificial robot androids would be companions. It would be a bigger industry than petroleum, or computers.
Believe it or not, there now is a company in the US that is doing just that, creating synthetic "dolls" that are made to be sex objects.
The company is called Realbotix, a spin off of the parent company RealDol. It is a company that is bringing artificial intelligence to very life like full size, anatomically correct silicon dolls. This effort, which will ultimately be successful, will unite robots with artificial intelligence and bring about what Anton LaVey predicted "technologically feasible slavery."
Here is a video called Robotica that was produced by the New York Times shining a light on this venture.
So why the drive for Satan to promote this sort of thing?
What we have to remember is that Satan hates everything about God. That means he hates us as well.
Because we are created beings of an intelligent design.
If Satan, through the works of man, can also create "life" then he sees himself as god and if he can do that, then there are two creators in the universe and not God alone.
Scripture says…
Revelation 4:11 Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.
Why Did God Make Us?
He made us so that He can have fellowship with Him.
Think back to the Garden of Eden. Adam and Eve literally walked, talked and hung out with God learning all there is to learn. Remember it is Adam who named all the animals in the world.
God taught them and provided for them a standard of living, providing direction and love that only God could give.
Satan hates humans because of our special and unique relationship with God. We are specially created beings. We are unique is that we have a souls which angles / demons – fallen angles do not.
Satan was special to God. At that time Lucifer was the guardian of the throne of God. We read this in Ezekiel 28:14.
We also suspect that he led the worship in Heaven. In Ezekiel 28:13 we read…
"Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created."
So why does Satan wish to create sexual robots and in fact robots in general?
In the end Satan is about dehumanization.
If he can de-human us, it creates another attack on God and us, His children, and brings him one step closer to being a "creator" himself.
Remember the 5 I Will's?
- I will ascend into heaven
- I will exalt my throne above the stars of God
- I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
- I will ascend above the heights of the clouds
- I will be like the most High.
Satan wants to be God and ultimately prove to God that he to can be God.
By dehumanizing us he is able to deprive us of human qualities such as individuality, compassion, and civility.
By integrating us with machine he will be able to or render us mechanical and potentially create a slave like programed robot following a programmed routine.
I find it interesting that Anton LeVay made this part of his five point satanic plan.
Folks, Satan is alive and well.
Like it or not he and his followers at this moment have the high ground and in some cases they are calling the shots and making the rules.
Satan's Goal is to destroy and this century, the century of Satan, we are seeing that take place just about everywhere we look.
We are living in the last days of the last days and right now Satan has most of the aces.
But we as Christians know the end of the story and we know that it is just a season away where we will witness the King of Kings stand upon the holy mountain and take Satan captive and imprison him for 1000 years.
At which time we who are His children, will rein with him in Jerusalem and he heal the world of all its hurt and the lion shall lie down with the lamb for the millennia.


text: CONSUMERS in the United States may not have gone to market in recent weeks in the large numbers sought by retailers, but guess who is going to market? Corporate America, which has been issuing one of the largest amounts of new stock (equities) since the mid-1980s.Corporations normally issue stock to pay for capital development plans or to retire debt. Brand-new companies issue what Wall Street calls "initial public offerings equity in these businesses. Final figures for 1991 have yet to be tallied. Investment firms indicate, however, that record numbers of existing companies, as well as new start-ups, are issuing stock. The Securities Industry Association reckons that $35 million worth more stock will have been offered for sale than retired or taken out of the market in 1991. That stands in sharp contrast to most of the 1980s, when billions of dollars of equities were taken out of the market through buyouts or mergers. Throughout the '80s scores of prominent public corporations virtually disappeared to investors through buyouts, mergers, or other exotic multibillion-dollar deals. The issue of who owns corporate America is important not just to stockholders or business-school academics. In the 1980s, many companies fell under the sway of speculators and takeover artists. In some cases, tighter management resulted, actually benefiting the company. Yet, the decisions made by those small groups also directly affected thousands of workers - through plant closings, for example. Ensuring the broadest possible ownership of stock in US companies is good for the investment community as well as for public corporations. Broad stock ownership promotes accountability. And in retiring debt through new stock issuings, management is better able to plan for the future. Accordingly, the recent expansion in stock offerings could be a step in the right direction for US corporations.

I'm looking to upgrade, but if there is any problem there are too many choices, and my entire ecosystem will port (MP3s, apps, etc.). I can have a QWERTY slider keyboard. I can have a stylus pen phablet. I can have sleek. I can have extra battery life. I can have quad-core. Samsung dominates, but HTC, LG, Motorola, or anyone else can compete and find a niche.
There used to be "the big 3" automakers in the USA, Chrysler, GM, and Ford. But GM was the biggest. But it wasn't a series of identical cars, they had Chevys, Corvettes, Cadillacs, and trucks!
That said, one thing I don't like about Android is the Java based API - it has limits and I don't care for Eclipse. Yet I can download it and run it for free on multiple platforms. Unlike having to get a Mac, paying Apple the price of entry to program your own hardware. And similar for your WinPhone.

Jennifer Braceras of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights reminds us that one doesn't have to be a judge to be nominated to the Supreme Court. She provides a list of potential non-judge nominees that includes Senator John Kyl, attorney Miguel Estrada, former Oklahoma Governor Frank Keating, and Spencer Abraham who has just stepped down from the position of Secretary of Energy. Abraham is as intriguing possibility. He's best known as a U.S. Senator and Cabinet member. But, as a Harvard law student, he helped found the Federalist Society. No organization has done more to promote conservative legal causes.

jQuery Impromptu 4.1 is Here
By trent on 03 Dec in Impromptu, Javascript
jQuery Impromptu 4.1 has arrived. This release has been mostly a cleanup and documentation release. There were a couple small additions however.
Previously if you wanted to change the width on a prompt, you had to do it via css. Since the touring functionality arrived a while back we introduced a new option, position. Inside position you could specify items like container, x, y, arrow, and width. It didn't take long to figure out users were wanting to just use the position's width. This is now possible without specifying the other position options.
$.prompt("Hello World!", { position: { width: 400 } });
The class names were cleaned up throughout the states generation in Impromptu. This shouldn't break any existing code unless you were specifically targeting states by their id. If you were using Impromptu's methods (as recommended) no change is needed.
The final code change was renaming the "callback" option to "close" to match the corresponding bound event name "promptclose".
Finally the documentation received a complete overhaul. The number of examples were getting overwhelming and felt cluttered. I have also included it within the repository so it is available there as well as on the site.
As always feel free to report bugs or make suggestions. Stay tuned for new Impromptu announcements coming real soon!

Hey Trent,
Thanks for making this it's very useful.
I was facing an issue when I had kept the submit button as the second button and changed focus to 1 and kept cancel as the first button. When I press the enter key on the key board to submit the form it only works the first time if there is an error in validation and the user changes the input and hits enter to submit again it presses "cancel". The loan calculator example that you have also has the same issue, is there any quick fix for this?

What does it mean to be poor in America? We can offer no single description of American poverty. But for many, perhaps most, it means homes with peeling paint, inadequate heating, uncertain plumbing. It means that only the very lucky among the children receive a decent education. It often means a home where some go to bed hungry and malnutrition is a frequent visitor. It means that the most elementary components of the good life in America–a vacation with kids, an evening out, a comfortable home–are but distant and unreachable dreams, more likely to be seen on the television screen than in the neighborhood. And for almost all the poor it means that life is a constant struggle to obtain the merest necessities of existence, those things most of us take for granted. We can do better.
More than 35 million Americans–one out of every seven of our fellow citizens–are officially poor. More than one in five American children are poor. And the poor are getting poorer. In 1994, nearly half of poor children under the age of 6 lived in families with incomes below half the poverty line. That figure has doubled over the past twenty years. The number of people who work full time and are still poor has risen dramatically as well. In 1975, 6 percent of young children who lived in families with one full-time worker were poor. By 1994, that figure had gone up to 15 percent.
Poor people are increasingly hemmed into poor neighborhoods, with everything that entails: poor schools, crime, violence, lack of accessible jobs and all the rest. The number of people living in concentrations of poverty (in neighborhoods of more than 40 percent poverty) went up by 75 percent from 1970 to 1980 and then doubled between 1980 and 1990. More than 10 million Americans (that constitutes about 4 million poor families) now live in very-high-poverty neighborhoods.
Minorities are poorer than the rest of Americans: 29.3 percent of African-Americans and 30.3 percent of Hispanics were classified as poor in 1995. Female-headed households are even poorer–44.6 percent of the children who lived in such families were poor in 1994, and almost half of all children who are poor live in female-headed households.
It's an old saw that the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. For nearly two decades that cliché has been a painfully demonstrable fact. Nearly all of America's economic growth has benefited the wealthiest among us, and the tiny slice of the pie allotted to the poor has actually gotten smaller. From 1977 to 1992 the richest 1 percent of Americans gained 91 percent in after-tax income, while the poorest fifth lost 17 percent of their income. The top 1 percent's total income equals that of the entire bottom 40 percent of the population.
I will be the first to say that adults in our society need to take responsibility for themselves if they possibly can. But until we come to a real understanding of the structural problems in our economy and society that are getting in our way, we will continue to legislate by bumper stickers and slogans. We need to have an honest national conversation, and an honest conversation in every community, about what is really going on, why we face the unacceptable level of poverty and near-poverty, and what we are going to do about it.

Bringing children to watch games has landed two rec-league basketball teams in Saskatoon on the sidelines.
Michelle Vilar says they were unfairly treated by the Saskatoon Rec League when they were kicked out and banned from all activities for bringing their children to games.
Vilar said she had been attending for five weeks when she got an email from the league manager stating kids are not allowed at games.
"They had said in their email 'we are not a daycare' which I was pretty taken aback by," adding her kids were always supervised and there was nothing stated in the league's online waiver about the no kids policy.
"He also said that it was a complete circus, which it was never."
In a statement, league manager Dain Renkas said the league's insurance doesn't cover children and when they became aware that kids were attending games they informed both teams that is not allowed.
"They chose to disregard this and brought children to the next game so we had no choice but to remove them from the schedule to ensure it did not happen again," the statement read.
Vilar believes they were unfairly singled out and only chose to ignore the league warning after learning the information had not been shared with the other league teams.
"If we would have completely been aware that this league doesn't promote that, or have the insurance to promote that, than we would not have joined," Vilar said.
The league said it has updated the rules and refunded both teams.

- Tits, goldcrests and warblers
- Whitethroat
Karen Summers
The Whitethroat is a medium-sized, long-tailed warbler of grassland, scrub and hedgerows. It is a summer visitor and passage migrant, breeding in many areas but avoiding urban and mountainous places. Males Whitethroats build nests out of twigs and roots and the females then decide which to take. Whitethroats winter in Africa, leaving our shores in early October and heading as far south as South Africa.
How to identify
Male Whitethroats are sandy-grey above, with orange fringes to the wing feathers, a pale grey head, pinkish-buff breast and bright white throat. Females are duller. They can be distinguished from the smaller, Lesser Whitethroat by the rusty brown edges to their wing feathers, pinky chest and longer tail.
Where to find it
A widespread summer visitor.
When to find it
- April
- May
- June
- July
- August
- September
- October
How can people help
During the 1960s, Whitethroats sustained heavy losses as their wintering grounds in sub-Saharan Africa suffered major drought - breeding Whitethroats suffered a 90% drop in the UK. Numbers have not fully recovered yet, but are on the up. The Wildlife Trusts manage many grassland and woodland nature reserves sympathetically for Whitethroats and other bird species. You can help by supporting your local Trust and becoming a member; you'll find out about exciting wildlife happenings, events on your doorstep and volunteering opportunities, and be helping local wildlife along the way.

The Atlantic Council recently launched their Counter-Piracy Task Force report, an action oriented effort to analyze and make recommendations on the complex maritime piracy challenge. The task force brought together the top experts on counter piracy, including international organizations, former officials, academic experts, and industry executives.
As the keynote speaker, the Assistant Secretary of State for Political-Military Affairs Andrew Shapiro made timely remarks as to the immense progress achieved in counter-piracy efforts since the initial surge of hostile attacks in the 2007 and 2008 periods.
However, the increased sum of ransom payments, lack of employment opportunities, and vast numbers of potential pirates have resulted in an organized, transnational criminal enterprise which must be dismantled for piracy to be effectively combatted. Piracy threatens both the global economy and global regional security, with the failed state of Somalia offering a safe haven for crime on a strategic shipping lane. As such, efforts to eliminate piracy must be international in nature- combining efforts of governments, international organizations and industry.
International cooperation to combat piracy has been noteworthy. Successful attacks off Somalia have decreased from 68 in 2010 and 34 in 2011 to only 10 in 2012.
In January 2011 there were 31 ships and 710 hostages being held; by October 2012 the numbers were dramatically decreased at 5 ships and 143 hostages. The US, NATO, EU and private sector have all worked together with a "smart power" approach. Up to thirty ships from 22 nations are engaged in anti-piracy operations on a daily basis. While military power is necessary, it is not sufficient on its own because of the sheer scale of the domain.
In order to optimize anti-piracy results, Shapiro noted that solutions must include an empowered maritime industry.
- Best practices established have been highly effective, including hardening the ships by increasing speed, establishing barriers to boarding, etc.
- The most effective counter-piracy tool is an armed Private Security Team (PST) onboard. Not a single ship with an armed PST has been captured.
- Nearly 20% of ships transiting off HOA are still not implementing proper security measures, making them at high risk for hijackings.
As an international community, we must focus on underlying reasons for piracy in order to eradicate it. Stability in Somalia must be prioritized to eliminate the safe haven for piracy and provide social and economic alternatives.
Additionally, the international community must demonstrate a commitment to prosecute suspected pirates. While customary international law gives international jurisdiction for crimes of piracy, nations must demonstrate a commitment to prosecute and incarcerate pirates. The international community is working to develop a legal framework to facilitate prosecution and incarceration of pirates in Somalia.
Yet having a legal framework is insufficient for successful prosecution. The maritime industry must support the prosecution efforts, permitting crew members to attend trials as witnesses. Without these invaluable witnesses, cases are often undermined and pirates released.
Though industry is working to harden ships and employ best practices to lessen risk, governments must continue to focus resources and attention to the issue. Specific concerns focus on the logistical challenges of Private Maritime Security Companies (PMSC)- who often require extensive licenses and permissions to move their teams and weapons that have proved invaluable to preventing piracy.
Currently there is no international regulation governing the PMSCs, resulting in varying sizes, quality, and complications when traveling from ship to ship. A focused effort to create a standardized regulation governing the PSTs would serve to increase their efficiency and effectiveness, while also mitigating concerns that PSTs may be rogue mercenaries.
Other challenges of counter piracy include domain awareness; the vast range of pirates operating from mother-ships makes large swaths of the maritime transit corridors open to attack. It is impossible to effectively patrol the entire region with a counter piracy task force. Focus is on major transit corridor, but time x distance equations make it challenging to respond quickly.
Transnational criminal organizations provide vast financial networks and assets to 'rank and file' pirates, extending the scope of counter-piracy operations. Eliminating these networks requires careful coordination with law enforcement agencies around the world.
Finally, the permissive environment which exists in certain strategic locations lends to greater levels of piracy. The Somali region offers a piracy haven due to its geographical location near strategic shipping lanes, social acceptance of piracy, lack of legal framework, and nascent government. Without improving these issues, efforts at sea will never be entirely successful.
The Task Force Report, available here offers valuable insights and analysis. Key recommendations include:
- Improve the international legal framework to prosecute piracy, to include standardizing jurisdictional authority, law enforcement measures and consequences.
- International community must improve legislative and judicial capacity of Somalia for more effective prosecution and incarceration.
- Vessel self-protection measures using best management practices and employing armed security teams have been successful and are a cost effective solution, but measures require clarification to ensure uniformity. State Department must reconcile export control policy with pro-armed guard policy. IMO or another international regulatory body should formalize and standardize official policy.
- Need to increase communication, intelligence sharing and coordination between PMSCs and international naval forces.
- Regional nations do not have adequate capacity to counter piracy due to insufficient domain awareness, inadequate intelligence, and deficient patrol/response capabilities. Training and capacity building should focus on these areas.
With continued efforts from governments, industry, and international organizations, piracy can be effectively combated, ensuring freedom of the seas.

CAMP Professors Carryout Fuel Cell Research continued from page1
Professor Dipankar Roy
Professor Roy's
group is characterizing advanced materials for fuel cells using
electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). EIS can be combined
with various D.C. electrochemical techniques for quantitative investigation
of novel electrode materials for proton exchange membrane and solid
oxide fuel cells (PEMFCs and SOFCs, respectively). A wide range
of studies based on these combined electrochemical methods is currently
underway in Professor Roy's laboratory at Clarkson University.
For PEMFCs,
cathode impedance is an important factor, because the oxygen reaction
generally is rate limiting in such cells. Anode performance (especially
its tolerance against CO poisoning) can also be studied using EIS
in the anode half-cell configuration. EIS simultaneously records
the signature time constants of cell operation (mass transport/
reaction at the anode, proton conduction through the membrane, charge
transfer at three-phase boundaries of the cathode, and mass transport
of products). Furthermore, at high current densities, the ohmic
loss in PEMFCs often becomes an important governing factor for cell
performance. This is caused by electrolyte resistance as well as
by other cell components, and EIS is an effective probe of these
different types of ohmic losses. Professor Roy's research interest
in PEMFCs focuses primarily on EIS characterization of cathode reactions,
along with selected studies of anode properties and ohmic effects.
For SOFCs, EIS
can identify both the sources of polarization loss and the effects
of material composition on electrode performance. EIS is sensitive
to electrical homogeneity of electrode and electrolyte microstructures,
and hence can be used as a simple testing method in the material
design stage, prior to incorporation of new materials in SOFCs.
Also EIS is a standard method for studying cathode reactions in
SOFCs. Open circuit voltages of SOFCs sometimes depend on the history
of electrode pretreatment and activation. EIS measurements performed
at different intervals, before and after polarization, provide various
mechanistic details of this effect. In addition, EIS is a relatively
straightforward method for identifying activation and diffusion
controlled processes. Because activated catalytic reactions are
strongly governed by the chemical makeup of reaction sites, identification
of the rate limiting processes through EIS facilitates the task
of designing electrode and electrolyte materials for SOFCs. Professor
Roy's research spans over these diverse utilities of EIS in the
investigation and development of novel materials for SOFCs. More
information about Professor Roy's research can be found at: http://www.clarkson.edu/~samoy/
Professor Dan Goia
For more than five years, Professor Goia has enjoyed continuous support from Umicore (Hanau, Germany), a world leader in the development and manufacturing of precious metal catalysts, in developing precipitation processes to manufacture high performance catalysts for PEM fuel cells and other applications. To date, the work has resulted in several technologies for the preparation of Pt and Pt alloy nanoparticles supported on metallic and carbonaceous conductive supports, which have been captured in four worldwide patents. More recently, the research conducted by Professor Goia's group has been included in a collaborative effort between Umicore and GM (Rochester, NY).
Professors Ian Suni and Don Rasmussen
Professors Ian Suni and Don Rasmussen are working with NanoDynamics, Inc. to develop improved methods for coating solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) interconnects. SOFCs are a clean and efficient energy source that can burn a variety of fuels, including hydrogen and several different hydrocarbons. To obtain a higher voltage output, interconnects connect a series of individual cells into a solid oxide fuel cell stack. Since SOFCs operate at an elevated temperature, interconnect coatings may be needed to prevent unwanted reaction and transport.

300 pounds of unwanted prescription drugs collected in Lawrence during 'Take-Back Day'
- on October 3, 2012
More than 300 pounds of unwanted prescription drugs were collected Sept. 29 in Lawrence as part of "Take-Back Day" nationwide.
It was the fifth such event in Lawrence that gave residents the opportunity to safely dispose of expired, unused or unwanted medications. Sgt. Steve Lewis, of the Douglas County Sheriff's Office, said it also reduces the opportunity for abuse and decreases the number of accidental poisonings and overdoses.
The "Take-Back Days" are coordinated by the Federal Drug Enforcement Administration and sponsored locally by the Douglas County Sheriff's Office and the Lawrence Police Department.
The State of Kansas now allows pharmacies to receive unwanted prescription medications, and some local pharmacies participate in the program. Residents are encouraged to check with their pharmacist to see if they participate and what they accept.
The City of Lawrence/Douglas County Household Hazardous Waste Program also accepts medications throughout the year, but have specific guidelines. To learn more about this program, call 832-3030.

WH: House prices rise slightly in February
House price growth edged up slightly last month after hitting a 14-month low in January, according to Nationwide.
Its latest House Price Index shows that annual house price growth was 4.5% in February, slightly up from the 4.3% recorded in January.
On a monthly basis house prices rose 0.6% to £205,846, up from £205,846 in January.
Robert Gardner, Nationwideâs chief economist, said: âThe outlook is uncertain, but we, along with most other forecasters, expect the UK economy to slow through 2017 as heightened uncertainty weighs on business investment and hiring. Consumer spending, a key engine of growth in recent quarters, is also likely to be impacted by rising inflation in the months ahead as a result of the weaker pound.
âNevertheless, in our view a small rise in house prices of around 2% is more likely than a decline over the course of 2017, since low borrowing costs and the dearth of homes on the market will continue to support prices.â
Howard Archer, chief economist at IHS Global Insight, said: âFebruaryâs solid looking rise in house prices reported by the Nationwide does not change our view that housing market activity and prices will come under increasing pressure over the coming months from deteriorating consumer fundamentals and weaker confidence.
âConsequently, we suspect that house price gains over 2017 will be no more than 3%.â
Nationwide said that the role of cash buyers had risen significantly in the past decade, hitting a record high of 38.9% at the beginning of last year.
Gardner said: âCash buyers are a more important driver of housing market dynamics than they were a decade ago. Though the data only extends back to 2005, it suggests that the share of cash transactions increased significantly from around 20% in 2005/06 to around 35% in 2008 and has remained fairly constant since then.â
âThe rise in the cash share to an all-time high of 38.9% in Q1 2016 â and the fall back in Q2 â was due to the introduction of stamp duty on second homes from April 2016.
âThis policy change prompted investors to bring forward their purchases to Q1 2016 to avoid the additional stamp duty liabilities â a large proportion of these transactions are likely to have been conducted in cash.â
Demographics are also playing a role in boosting the number of cash transactions.
As the proportion of people who own their home outright increases with an aging population, when these people transact â for example, moving home or downsizing â they are more likely to do so in cash.
Jonathan Harris, director of mortgage broker Anderson Harris, said: âWhile the proportion of cash buyers may be higher than it was a decade ago, the vast majority of people still need a mortgage and are taking advantage of the fact that rates are so low. Whatâs more, lenders seem keen to lend and that competition should lead to the continuation of cheap rates through the spring.â

Solar technology is the top method to create your business or home more cost efficient and eco friendly. Solar powered energy might help reduce the expense of bills and is particularly perfect for the environment. On this page Solar in Arizona, we will provide some interesting, useful information about the advantages and uses of solar powered energy.
If you opt to put solar technology panels on the home, remember to ensure they are clean. Your solar panels must reflect the sun's rays in order to keep the sun's energy for use at your residence or business. If they are dirty, they could not effectively do that. By keeping them clean, you will get by far the most bang for your buck!
The most efficient solar energy panels are the type that do not depend upon the fickle sun to build power. Lots of the latest panels can store the energy from the sun whenever it's shining therefore, you may use your panels anytime, day or night. This is useful when you use power from the evenings.
When you own a swimming pool, think about using a solar water home heating system to hold it warm within the cooler months. Solar heating is far less expensive than electric and even gas heating, and it is relatively simple to set up. From the first year alone, you can save about 30 % over the cost of heating your pool with electricity.
Get online to discover your local Internet solar power community. You will discover reliable information about peaks and lows in solar technology use in your town. Should you get particularly good at getting with a roof to completely clean your solar panels, you might can even market yourself and create a few bucks off other solar cell owners fearful of heights.
Know that solar panel systems usually do not immediately mean free energy forever. You ought to be mindful of the truth that solar installations often carry a large up-front price. However, you must also balance by using just how much energy you can save over the long run, government incentives and the potential of selling your excess power to the grid.
Always employ non abrasive cleansers on your own solar power panels. An abrasive cleaner can scratch the top of the panel and cause permanent damage and affect how well the solar power works. There are actually commercial cleaning strategies to use or you can use a pool skimmer having a very soft cloth upon it.
It may be wise to buy fewer solar panels, given the high cost. Employ a service to perform a power audit in your home. This can help you in locating what waste energy in your home and assistance to fix them. Because of this, you need fewer panels.
If you like spending time from the great outdoors, but love the convenience of energy, solar energy is the best solution for you personally. There are lots of products, like fans and battery chargers, that utilize solar energy to product the electricity necessary to run them. Imagine, you can camp within a hot location but still love a strong breeze.
Your solar energy panels ought to be installed in order to obtain the maximum volume of sun from the year. Should you not realize how to position them efficiently, check out the direction how the sun travels and take into consideration how that changes together with the seasons.
The perfect time to add solar power into the style of a home or building is within the initial construction. Windows work best facing south to let maximum sunlight (hence greenhouse heat) in throughout the winter. Likewise, avoid windows facing directly into the summertime sun to help keep things cooler, so less power is essential for fans or air cooling. The utmost roof space, however, would be wise to get sunlight exposure.
Soon, things should learn to improve in relation to improving the environment and lowering the cost of power. Why wait until solar technology becomes the regular? You should at least investigate your choices to see if solar energy is practical for your home.

Fisheries relief included in Congress' $1 trillion budget planBy GRETYL MACALASTER
Union Leader Correspondent
January 14. 2014 7:07PM
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The $1 trillion omnibus spending bill released on Monday includes $75 million in disaster relief for fisheries.
U.S. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-NH, a staunch supporter of federal disaster relief for the New England fisheries, announced the inclusion of the funds in a statement issued.
"Fishing is one of our state's oldest industries and remains a critical engine of our economy. Protecting this industry and the jobs it supports across the Seacoast is one of my top priorities, and the resources in this bill will provide necessary support for fishermen and coastal communities who are struggling during difficult times," Shaheen said.
This summer, Shaheen and Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, secured $150 million for fishery disaster relief through a Senate appropriations bill, but it was never passed into law. The $75 million proposed in the new bill is a reintroduction of that failed proposal.
Jeff Grappone, spokesman for Sen. Kelly Ayotte, R-NH, said the senator is reviewing the details of the entire omnibus spending bill.
He said she has repeatedly stood up for New Hampshire's proud fishermen and has opposed federal catch share limits that are devastating the state's fishing community.
"She will continue to urge federal officials to work toward a more sensible regulatory climate that will allow New Hampshire's fishing industry to survive in the long-term," Grappone said.
Several fisheries across the country have been declared disasters by the Department of Commerce since 2012 and require federal aid, but so far no money has been distributed, and the fisheries continue to suffer from depleted fish stocks and drastic cuts in catch allotments.
The $75 million in disaster mitigation funding for "commercial fishery failures" and "fishery resource disasters" declared in 2012 and 2013, which would include the Northeast, and New Hampshire specifically, is included in the $1.012 trillion spending bill unveiled by House and Senate negotiators.
The full House may vote on the bill as soon as today. It will also have to pass the full Senate.
"I think it's great news. We've been trying to lobby for this for the past two years, ever since the first fishery disaster was declared in 2012 on a regionwide level," said Josh Weirsma, manager for New Hampshire's two groundfishing sectors.
New Hampshire qualified as a disaster in 2010.
Weirsma said this funding is a good opportunity for the fishery to have some type of bridge between covering the expenses it has incurred while facing year over year loss of revenues, and what the future in fishing might be.
Moving forward, Weirsma said they have to find a way for each New England state to feel compensated without dividing the fisheries.
"There are different ways people have already proposed on how the money should be spent, from direct aid to fishermen, direct aid to shore fed infrastructure, covering costs of at-sea monitoring, new collaborative research money, so everybody is going to try to get their own piece of this, including environmental groups and academia and universities who are going to want to leverage it for research purposes," Weirsma said. "It is not going to be as simple as writing a check to fishermen for the amount of money they lost, but it is definitely something and will create some opportunities that didn't exist for us before."
He said it will be up to the state's elected officials in Washington to lobby on the industry's behalf for the funding.
"Whatever disaster aid relief money we can get, we hope to use it as a bridge to kind of bide our time until the fish stocks do recover. Guys who might be under pressure to sell their permits and stop fishing immediately … might be able to reconsider."
As of Tuesday, there were two boats in the fleet still fishing this season. Many others ran out of certain quotas by December, meaning they could fish for nothing else, as the species comingle.
"Even compared to last year, most of our guys were fishing at least into January and February, but we're constrained very severely, and we're not the only ones," Weirsma said.
Coastal communities in other states, including Gloucester and New Bedford in Massachusetts and many communities in Maine are also struggling under the strict catch limits and the catch share system.

This page provides an overview of the activities performed and deliverables provided that relate to authorization management. Some of these activities contribute to DASP framework.
The goal of DAta Sharing and Processing (DASP) framework is to establish building blocks for achieving externalized authorization that spans across heterogeneous services and resolves the issues related to the unified and dynamic management of security controls in connected environments. The framework aims to provide user-centric solution to granularly, dynamically and context-sensitively manage the sharing of its data and resources distributed across diverse cloud service providers.
The framework itself consists of
- the architectural and interaction model,
- supporting semantic vocabularies and
- tools that demonstrate its application and allow a broader integration
Vocabularies provided in the framework:
Here we refer to related activities:
- LOD and LOV for Authorization Concepts
- Automated Resoning over Security Policies
- Security Aspects of Web-APIs
- Orchestration of distributed Cloud Applications
- Contextual Data Exchange
- Managing Security of API-based Integration Workflows
- Secure Integration in the Cloud
- Multidimenzional Security Policies
The semantic vocabularies incepted during the project are available (and periodically updated) at daspsec.org.
Please note that this is an ongoing work, with the results being incrementally published.
We plan to provide a consolidated version of tools and demonstrators soon.

I'm half Filipina. And I've always thought of myself as half. But one day at a faculty meeting a colleague told me I "passed" as white. It's bothered me ever since.
I would have responded in my head, "you may think I pass, but you have failed to see me, and for you to pass at being a better human being you need some tutoring."
"We are seventh graders at High Tech Middle Media Arts striving for change, so silence is not an option."

The ISS cross band repeater is on and working extremely well. The 06.50utc UK pass was accessible during the full period of visibility however there were few stations and only one contact was made with DL0SP, thank you Mario. Can I stress the importance of the Doppler correction on the uplink. It was apparent that there were at least two other stations that would have been perfectly readable had this been correct.
