Prime Minister John Key today fronted an at times angry group of Pike River Mine families in Greymouth to apologise - and pledge funding of about $10 million to recover the main tunnel.
Mr Key said afterwards it was important to apologise face to face on behalf of the Government, but he stuck to his view that recovering the 29 bodies from the main workings of the mine remained unlikely.
Most families stayed until the end but some left early, with Anna Osborne saying she did not even want an apology: "It's far too late, two years down the track.''
She attended the meeting to stress the need to bring home the men, and said Mr Key told them money would not be an issue when it came to recovering the main tunnel (drift).
Lawrie Drew, who also left early, said everyone was at a stalemate, with the Government advisers saying one thing and the families' advisers another.
"It's the same merry-go-round.''
Mr Key acknowledged the families had been frustrated by his message that a body recovery remained unlikely. He stressed to journalists that the Royal Commission itself cautioned against such a bid.
He did not want to leave the families with false hope, he said.
However, he said the Government would fund the drift recovery, and noting that the figure of $10m had been suggested.
In his letter to families, delivered last week, Mr Key said he regretted "deeply'' the lives lost and the suffering caused.
He said the Royal Commission's report painted a disturbing picture of corporate and regulatory failure.
"On behalf of the Government, I want to reiterate my apology to the families, friends and loved ones of the deceased men for the role this lack of regulatory effectiveness played in the tragedy.''
But he also said the mine's new owner, Solid Energy, remained of the view that re-entry further into the mine was too risky.
Mr Key said Bruce Parkes, a senior manager at the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment was the new liaison between the families and Government.

What are the possible effects of emotional trauma?
Even when unrecognized, emotional trauma can create lasting difficulties in an individual's life. One way to determine whether an emotional or psychological trauma has occurred, perhaps even early in life before language or conscious awareness were in place, is to look at the kinds of recurring problems one might be experiencing. These can serve as clues to an earlier situation that caused a dysregulation in the structure or function of the brain.
Common personal and behavioral effects of emotional trauma:
* substance abuse
* compulsive behavior patterns
* self-destructive and impulsive behavior
* uncontrollable reactive thoughts
* inability to make healthy professional or lifestyle choices
* dissociative symptoms ("splitting off" parts of the self)
* feelings of ineffectiveness, shame, despair, hopelessness
* feeling permanently damaged
* a loss of previously sustained beliefs
Common effects of emotional trauma on interpersonal relationships:
* inability to maintain close relationships or choose appropriate friends and mates
* sexual problems
* hostility
* arguments with family members, employers or co-workers
* social withdrawal
* feeling constantly threatened
What if symptoms don't go away, or appear at a later time?
Over time, even without professional treatment, symptoms of an emotional trauma generally subside, and normal daily functioning gradually returns. However, even after time has passed, sometimes the symptoms don't go away. Or they may appear to be gone, but surface again in another stressful situation. When a person's daily life functioning or life choices continue to be affected, a post-traumatic stress disorder may be the problem, requiring professional assistance.
How is emotional trauma treated?
Traditional approaches to treating emotional trauma include talk therapies, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) - intentionally changing one's thoughts and actions - and systematic desensitization to reduce reactivity to a traumatic stressor. These approaches to healing trauma were developed without brain science information, and therefore have varying degrees of success.
Recent developments in the treatment of emotional trauma include new, effective forms of psychotherapy and somatic (body) therapies that were developed with new brain science information in mind. Although often intensely interpersonal, these therapies are also psychological and neurological in their focus and application. This group of therapies relies on innate instinctual resources, rather than medications, to bring about healing. They differ in some ways, but the one thing they have in common is combining talk therapy with a focus on the body. As with any therapy, but especially due to the intensity of the emotions involved, it is important to find a therapist with whom one feels trust and a strong bond.


text: The deadly 'football riots' were twisted into a convenient cover story to further the aims of the military [Al Jazeera]Doha, Qatar - Somewhere, Field Marshal Tantawi of Egypt's ruling military council must have been laughing to himself. When MP Mamduh Ismail of the Salafi al-Nur Party interrupted a session of parliament to deliver the Muslim call to prayer earlier this month, the chamber erupted in outrage over the presumptuous nature of the act. Saad al-Katatni, the parliamentary speaker, representing the Muslim Brotherhood's Freedom and Justice Party, shouted him down to a wave of applause, declaring that Ismail was not holier than anyone else in parliament. One could interpret this bizarre scene as the fulfillment of Western apprehensions about a democratic Egypt transforming the parliamentary floor into a pulpit from which to legislate morality and enforce public piety. A case could even be made that, based on such outward displays of religious demagoguery, Islamic politics is poised to hinder Egypt's transition to a pluralistic state that respects individual freedoms and the rule of law. However, to do so would be to miss the point entirely. For the better part of the past year, the ruling Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF), led by Tantawi, has depended on the occasional public spectacle to aid in cementing its increasingly tenuous grasp on political power. Since the fall of the Mubarak regime, Egypt's revolution has been hanging in the balance as the military attempts to preserve a status quo, marked by its historically dominant role in Egypt's political and economic spheres. These spectacles have taken on various forms and fulfilled a number of different objectives, all of which have ultimately served to bolster the military's power while giving the appearance of change. Turning into spectacle The so-called "football riots" that resulted in the deaths of 74 fans at Port Said Stadium on February 1 is another such incident. While many Western news outlets framed these events in the context of historic tragedies and fan violence in the world of football, the venue in reality just provided a convenient cover story for the actual developments of the day. The frequent government crackdown on popular protests - whether by uniformed officers or plain clothed thugs - that have become a fixture of the Egyptian revolt had continued under the guise of violence among competing football ultras. Tahrir Square was transported to Port Said Stadium (and subsequently transferred back in front of the Interior Ministry on Mohamed Mahmoud Street in Cairo). Such seemingly spontaneous eruptions of violence in recent months have contributed to the sense of instability that would presumably force Egypt's young revolutionaries to reassess their political objectives by raising the costs of their continued activism. The message seems to be that, not only is it the occasional gathering of the country's impetuous youth (whether in public squares or football stadiums) that is at the heart of Egypt's prolonged insecurity, but that the military is the only institution defending the country against total anarchy. Tantawi implied as much in his brief comments immediately after the Port Said incident, expressing little sympathy for the victims at a time of deep national sorrow, and lending further credence to the widespread belief in Egypt that the violence was used to settle political scores that date back to the launch of the protests more than one year ago. Similarly, the SCAF has attempted to score an additional strategic victory through the manufacture of a highly politicised legal case intended for widespread public consumption. Many observers have been puzzled by the proceedings against 19 US citizens representing a number of democracy promotion organisations such as the National Democratic Institute and the International Republican Institute. While the charge of foreign manipulation of Egypt's fragile democratic processes is certainly serious enough to warrant thorough investigation, the Egyptian military, itself a recipient of $1.3bn in annual US aid, is hardly in a position to determine whether Egyptian civil society has been subject to undue foreign influence. Despite the international fallout from this incident, including the threat of suspension of US aid, the Egyptian government has pressed on with its case. While SCAF leaders may be privately expressing their apprehensions about the consequences of this trial for US-Egyptian relations, they are also sure to recognise its success in channelling popular nationalist sentiments in their favour. In fact, the effect of this spectacle is doubly beneficial to the military: While Egypt's emerging political parties and revolutionary youth groups have been compromised by foreign agents, the SCAF has acted as the state's guardian against external threats to its sovereignty. Full circle This brings the discussion full circle. Having thus violently repressed the revolutionary forces in the street and poked holes in the credibility of the rising political class, the SCAF has proceeded to respond to every impending or actual crisis with a healthy dose of democracy. It enthusiastically supported the early push for parliamentary elections endorsed by last year's March referendum, and months later relied on those elections to defuse a rapidly escalating confrontation between the military and protesters. But whatever authority the SCAF supposedly sacrifices through opening the political field it has more than made up for by effectively limiting the power of the newly elected legislature from exercising actual governance. Unable to appoint ministers or forge policy independently, the parliamentarians have instead engaged in pointless political wrangling and spectacles, such as that which surrounded the pronouncement of the midday prayer. Egypt's democracy in action, or so the SCAF would have citizens believe. In fact, the cycle has continued almost effortlessly. Like clockwork, in the immediate aftermath of the Port Said stadium deaths, the SCAF attempted to placate protesters demanding the military's accountability by announcing the official nomination of presidential candidates to commence on March 10, several weeks ahead of schedule. One spectacle replaces another. How the SCAF will respond to the election of Egypt's first president in the post-authoritarian era remains to be seen. But given that the powers of the office have yet to even be determined and the independent candidates will also have to contend with a parliament attempting to secure its own authority, the military is sure to exploit the developing situation to its own advantage - all while claiming that it is, in fact, retreating to its barracks. This is not to suggest that Egypt's military ruling institution is an all-powerful or omniscient Wizard of Oz figure. Far from it. It has made frequent mis-steps that have only emboldened the revolutionaries, and when it has succeeded, has only done so due to other actors playing their parts in the spectacle. What is becoming more clear, however, is that the SCAF has learned to adapt to the changing conditions more quickly, and has become more adept at managing the spectacle to its own political advantage. For Egypt's revolution to succeed, the curtain must be pulled back and the wizard must be exposed for all to see.

A year ago, New Orleans Saints defensive end Junior Galette didn't have a place to play. He had been kicked off the Temple football team for a series of what he called "boneheaded mistakes, " including personality clashes with coaches and an incident in which his cousin was arrested for stealing laptop computers from the dorm while visiting Galette on campus.
Galette said he was "blessed" to get a second chance to play at Division II Stillman College last season. And now that he's getting a shot to crack the Saints' roster as an undrafted free agent, he can barely contain his excitement.
"This is the dream. This is like a one-in-a-million shot, " said Galette, who is threatening to take the nickname "Jawbone" away from fellow Saints reclamation project Anthony Hargrove. "Man, I'm with the world champions, you understand? The first day I got here, I was like, 'Did I just break the huddle with Drew Brees? I was just playing with him in Madden (video game)."
Galette's enthusiasm can be seen -- and heard -- on the practice field. He's a dynamic athlete who plays at a high speed, and he has turned heads by making his way into the backfield to disrupt passers or blow up run plays on a number of occasions. His emotional reactions are evident after good plays and mistakes.
"It's just the opportunity of a lifetime, and I'm living every day like it's my last day, " Galette said. "That's why I'm out here every day, jumping around and spirited, and guys are like, 'What's wrong with him? It's 110 degrees out here.' And I'm just like, 'Man, you guys don't even know what I just went through to get here.'
"From where I came from, it was a long road, and the mind-set I have is that I refuse to lose. I wake up every morning and look in the mirror and say, 'I will not lose.'"
Defensive line coach Bill Johnson said Galette's character hasn't been a problem, though he described him as "raw, raw, raw, raw" and said he needs to keep maturing on and off the field.
"You're dealing with a lot of issues here to fit into this level of football. And we've gone through some attitude adjustments, just because he didn't know how to be around a program like this, " Johnson said. "But I've got no problems dealing with him. He has come in and he's really actively trying to get something done. ... He's definitely someone interesting to watch."
Galette had 16 sacks and three forced fumbles in 33 games at Temple. Then at Stillman, he had 9 1/2 sacks and was a second-team All-American.
Galette said he has always worked hard, but he acted like he was special once he became a successful player, rather than leading by example.
"I was 19, 20 years old, and I wasn't mature and ready for being that captain and being here and getting to the meetings 30 minutes early. I saw it a whole 'nother way. And now I'm just like, 'Man, what was I doing?'" said Galette, who said he was "raised in a great family" and felt like he failed them as well as himself.
"I'm just real thankful, and I was blessed that I got to learn from those mistakes when I was young and not when I got my feet wet in the NFL and it would hurt me so much more, " said Galette. "You know, I'm at home with no school to go to, and I'm praying every day, asking, 'Lord, man, why is this going on with me? I will change my behavior and I will promise to change my actions.' And that's just the maturity phase I had to go through."
Galette has gravitated toward Hargrove, the ultimate example of how a player can overcome a troubled past. Hargrove served a one-year suspension after a series of legal troubles and a battle with drug addiction before he joined the Saints and won a Super Bowl.
Hargrove has happily taken Galette under his wing.
"If I can help him and help keep him in the league and not make the mistakes I made, I've done my job, " said Hargrove, whose early advice to Galette has been to learn how to bottle up his energy and unleash it at the right times on the field.
"Guys like us are misunderstood, " Hargrove said. "And they may look at us and say that we're a little off because we love life so much. And I don't think there's nothing wrong with loving life and being happy all the time and being energetic, because that's how we're made. And if that's weird and crazy, then call us crazy and insane."
SHOCKEY RETURNS: Saints tight end Jeremy Shockey returned to action Thursday after missing the past seven practices while dealing with knee soreness. He fully participated, making one big catch, followed immediately by a drop during a two-minute drill. He wasn't available for comment after practice.
"He's doing well, " Saints Coach Sean Payton said. "A lot of it is just making sure we monitor any soreness. But I was encouraged with how he worked today."
HARTLEY'S 60-YARDER: Saints kicker Garrett Hartley drew some cheers from teammates and coaches when he drilled a 60-yard field goal during practice. But after practice, he was thinking more about the 37-yarder and 41-yarder that he missed wide right.
"Those (long ones) are crowd pleasing, but it's more important to be consistent, " said Hartley, who estimates that he has made about 90 percent of his field-goal attempts during practice.
The funny thing about the 60-yard attempt, Hartley said, is that the Saints were actually planning on him missing it short so they could practice their coverage in the situation where a defender tries to return the ball out of the end zone, known as "the Baltimore drill, " because former Ravens cornerback Chris McAlister once returned a missed field-goal attempt for a 107-yard touchdown on Monday Night Football.
"Coach (Greg McMahon) told me, 'You screwed up my drill, '" said Hartley, who said the attempt was supposed to be from 58 yards, but he told McMahon, "If you even want to give that returner a shot, then we'd better push it back a couple yards."
SAINTS SIGN BRADLEY: The team signed free-gent receiver Mark Bradley late Thursday after bringing him in for a workout. He is a long shot to make the roster, but there's something the team likes about the 6-foot-1, 201-pounder who spent the past five seasons in Chicago, Kansas City and Tampa Bay. A former second-round pick out of Oklahoma, Bradley has 92 catches in his career for 1,293 yards and nine touchdowns. He was released by the Buccaneers in June.
SCRIMMAGE CHANGE: The Black and Gold scrimmage has been moved up to 11 a.m. Saturday. It will still be open to the public, weather-permitting.
OFFICIALS VISITING: A team of NFL officials arrived Thursday to meet with the Saints about rule changes and points of emphasis. They'll be in town for three days to officiate practices, including Saturday's scrimmage.

The shortage of registered nurses stimulated RSU and JPMC to develop a bridge program that enables existing licensed practical nurses and paramedics to become RNs.

text: Hello everybody. I was just looking for a cluster management solution, and found out that Beowulf could be a good solution. I then started reading this : http://www.phy.duke.edu/~rgb/Beowulf/beowulf_book/beowulf_book/index.html And I'm now wondering if my applications were right designed to run on the beowulf cluster. >From what I read so far, it seems beowulf is adapted to make ONE calculation on several nodes, but this is not my objective : -I have a COW of about 20 to 40 computers, mostly differents, in terms of CPU, RAM, and so on - We run several applications (Theoritical Bio-chemistry), not especially designed for parallel processing My goal is to have a master node to which everyone supplies his jobs, then the master dispatches the jobs to the different computers, according to criterias (CPU must be Intel, CPU must be over 2 GHz, need much RAM, etc....) So the question is : is beowulf adapted to my needs, and if it's not, do you know any available (free) solution for me ? (I've already heard about Sun Grid Engine, but for "political" reasons....)
