From the World Wide Web to neural pathways to the increasingly networked structure of any economy, complex networks have become an integral part of our everyday lives. NECSI research on the structure and dynamics of networks expands our understanding of how biological, social, and technological networked systems behave. Findings relate to the remarkably dynamic structure of social networks, the relationship between structure and function, as well as the sensitivity and robustness of network response to the environment.

|Funk (fŭngk, fngk) Pronunciation Key
Polish-born American biochemist who is credited with the discovery of vitamins. In 1912 he postulated the existence of four organic bases he called vitamines which were necessary for normal health and the prevention of deficiency diseases. He also contributed to the knowledge of the hormones of the pituitary gland and the sex glands.
rhythm-drivenrhythm-driven musical genre popular in the 1970s and early 1980s that linked soul to later African-American musical styles. Like many words emanating from the African-American oral tradition, funk defies literal definition, for its usage varies with circumstance. As a slang term, funky is used to describe one's odour, unpredictable style, or attitude. Musically, funk refers to a style of aggressive urban dance music driven by hard syncopated bass lines and drumbeats and accented by any number of instruments involved in rhythmic counterplay, all working toward a "groove."

Hughes Group Inc., which started out digging basements and laying sewer lines in 1937, marked its 75th anniversary in Jeffersonville where the family business continues to thrive.
The company celebrated its 75th year in business recently at its headquarters at River Ridge, with Jeffersonville Mayor Mike Moore honoring former company President George Hughes Sr., who received a proclamation making Nov. 8 "George Hughes Sr. Day." State Sen. Ron Grooms, R-Jeffersonville, also offered the company a Certificate of Achievement from the Indiana Senate.
Passing on the family business
George Hughes Sr., 87, has been retired for years, along with two of his sons that followed him into the family business, George Hughes Jr. and John Hughes. His remaining two sons, Jeff Hughes and James P. Hughes, still work in the family business, with a number of grandchildren and great-grandchildren. The company was founded by Edgar H. Hughes, George Hughes Sr.'s father.
"We don't encourage or discourage family members from coming into the business," said George Hughes Sr. "I'm more or less a cheerleader [now]," he said of his role in the company.
But over the years, George Hughes Sr. helped diversify the company, getting into highway construction, and even building gas stations and sewer plants at one time.
For the next generation, they too, have had to work through each rung of the business.
Corey Hughes, real estate manager with the Hughes Group and George Hughes Sr.'s grandson, said like other family members in the company, he started as a laborer and has worked through Hughes Group's subsidiaries before moving into a supervisory role.
Even if you are family, a role at the top is not guaranteed.
"I think it's harder for a family member in the business because you're under a microscope," James P. Hughes said.
"It's real important for us as you're coming up through the company to set an example," Corey Hughes added.
While he said he always wanted to be a part of the company, he admitted it's not always easy.
"It's sometimes challenging to work with family," Corey Hughes said. "It's nice to work with family, as well. I have a huge sense of pride in everything we do. Even though I'm not an owner, I have ownership [in the company]."
Ben Hughes, field worker for Hydro-technologies and another grandson, and Anthony Lee Miller, field worker for Hydro-technologies and a great-grandson of George Hughes Sr.'s, are both in college and working toward a larger role in the company.
Miller said by working your way up through the company you get a sense of everything that goes on in the business.
Ben Hughes added, "it's very cool that all of our companies can do a job without outsourcing it to somebody else."
Hughes Group, Inc. is now a holding company with 15 construction-related subsidiaries, including general contracting, real estate development and specialty subcontracting services and at full-staffing employees about 250 employees. Those specialty services include asphalt milling, hydro-demolition, modified concrete and utility construction.
The specialty contracting services the company offers are unique to Hughes Group said President and CEO James P. Hughes.
"It takes four pieces to do this kind of work," he said. "We're the only company in the United States to have all four pieces."
The process is an advanced process to repair asphalt on roads and on bridges. The company first mills the roadway, then the hydro-demolition process uses high pressure water to break away old concrete without damaging the steel underneath, then the company will repour and smooth out the new road surface.
James P. Hughes said the company repaired a bridge in Memphis, Tenn., over the Mississippi River, that took about three months to complete. A conventional repair for the same work could take between nine months and two years, he said, depending on how much of the bridge was closed and how many people were working on the bridge.
He added that the hydro-demolition process is about 10 times faster than using a jackhammer and does the equivalent work of 60 jackhammers. The modified concrete the company uses, that includes a latex material, lasts about 30 years.
The changing technology has changed the dynamic of the company since George Hughes Sr. was at the helm.
"The administrative people and supervisory people are doing twice as much as they did before because of this technology," he said. "It's gone from a labor intensive to an equipment intensive business."
But James P. Hughes added that the company's focus still remains its employees.
"People make it go, people are still your most valuable asset," he said.
Spreading it's base
Because the company has diversified, James P. Hughes said they have been able to thrive in the last few years when many businesses were faced with hardships through the recession.
"We've been very fortunate," he said. "The reason why we've been very fortunate is we saw a long time ago, and we've been doing it for about 25 years, that we can't operate in just one area doing one thing. The stimulus years were very good to us because we were positioned well."
And the Hughes Group also works in several different states across the country through its multiple businesses to maintain its revenues.
The company hasn't been entirely immune to the changing economic conditions.
James P. Hughes said the company has to do more volume of work to make the same money that it has in the past. While the growth in sales has increased and is expected to increase about 15-20 percent next year, he estimated the company's annual revenues of between $40-60 million annually will remain stagnant or drop.
"I think the reason we've been so successful is money has been a secondary goal," he said.
Passing on the legacy
After 50 years directing the company, George Hughes Sr. has a legacy that his children and grandchildren are attempting to carry forward.
"The three things about business, you have to be honest, you always have to take care of your people and give back to the community," said James P. Hughes. "He instilled that into us," he said of George Hughes Sr.
The other thing the company has carried forward is to continue to be innovative.
"You need to change with [those contracting the jobs] and if you don't change with them, you're going to get left behind," James P. Hughes said. "Some people are fearful of change. The way we look at it is change creates opportunity. This area's going to blow wide open. Economic development, housing, it's probably one of the best places for people to be. In 10 years you won't recognize this area."

On the eve of the PlayStation 3's launch in Australia, we speak to Sony Computer Entertainment Australia managing director Michael Ephraim about all 3 launch delays, the competition the company is facing from Microsoft and Nintendo, and much more.
While it may not reach the pinnacle of other next-gen sports games, MLB 14 The Show is a solid effort that brings just enough new exciting bits to the PS4 experience.
Sony Computer Entertainment America has been given the go-ahead to access the PayPal account of George Hotz--also known as "Geohot"--to try to establish jurisdiction in a case.
The jailbreaker's lawyers take aim at Sony Computer Entertainment of America, saying the U.S. subsidiary has no proof their client violated Sony's EULA--or even that it has any claim to the PS3.
Sony has removed a PS3 update that was reportedly responsible for "bricking" a number of consoles, and has apologised for the inconvenience.
At its E3 keynote, Sony just unveiled the upcoming PlayStation 4, telling gamers that it will come in at AU$549, and there will be no restriction on used games.
The game company has posted a 16-second teaser video promoting "Game Day 2013," and it might just relate to God of War.
How does one of the PS3's staple franchises fare on the most powerful portable around?
Sony finally opens its PlayStation Store for Sony Tablet devices.
Sony is looking for a speech recognition expert to work in its PlayStation division, prompting rumours of a voice-controlled PS4.

In Fall 2010, Dean of the College Richard Feldman convened a multidisciplinary committee of College faculty from the sciences, social sciences and humanities, and charged them with developing a sustainability minor, an addition to the undergraduate curriculum eagerly anticipated by students seeking to pursue studies and careers in environmental science and policy. By graduation 2011, the group had completed its charge and secured approval from the College Curriculum Committee for an interdisciplinary minor including courses from nine different departments.
Set to enroll its first students in Fall 2011, the Minor in Sustainability will prepare students to explore, communicate, and solve problems in sustainability and global change that span disciplinary boundaries and carry far-reaching implications for society. The structure of the program roots the minor in environmental science, provides philosophical and historical context from which to view the interrelationships of environment and society and explores the mechanisms of economics and politics that impact environmental policy.
The core course of study begins in the department of Earth & Environmental Sciences
Two additional courses selected from the following four complete the core requirement:
To complete the minor students will chose three further courses from the core list fourteen elective courses, with a minimum of one required to be taken from science or engineering:
Electrical & Computer Engineering
Earth & Environmental Sciences
Political Science
More information on the sustainability minor, including prerequisites and course restrictions, can be found at: www.rochester.edu/college/msc/sustainability.html.
