New Hubble peers deep in cosmic past and future (2002)
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -- A new wide-angle view of the universe looks back to a mere billion years after the Big Bang, revealing secrets about the lives of galaxies and the black holes at their hearts, scientists reported on Thursday.
(Excerpt) Read more at cnn.com ...
Assuming that galaxy traveled away from us and we both left the big bang at the same time. Then if that light left that galaxy when that galaxy was just 1 billion years old and traveled for 12 billion years to reach us, then we must be at l2 billion light years from where that galaxy was when the light was produced. If the galaxys are going in opposite directions, then seems like our galaxy would have had to travel at almost 11/13 times the speed of light to be 12 billion light years away from where that galaxy was after it had traveled 1 billion years.
If the galaxies are going in the same direction. Then our galaxy has to be going even faster to receive the light 12 billion years later.
If the galaxies are going slow like on the order of 1/4 the speed of light, then it seems like the earliest we should be able to see is 3/4ths the age of the universe.
What am I missing?
Here's a blurb from the Hubble Site as well, with links to images. Thanks for the post.
Hubble Goes 'Deep' to Sample Young Galaxies
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope reached back to nearly the beginning of time to sample thousands of infant galaxies. This image, taken with Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys, shows several thousand galaxies, many of which appear to be interacting or in the process of forming. Some of these galaxies existed when the cosmos was less than about 2 billion years old. The foreground galaxies, however, are much closer to Earth. Two of them [the white, elongated galaxies, left of center] appear to be colliding.
This image represents less than one-tenth of the entire field surveyed by Hubble. The full field, consisting of about 25,000 galaxies, is part of a larger survey called the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey (GOODS), the most ambitious study of the early universe yet undertaken with the Hubble telescope. This survey targeted two representative spots in the sky - one in the Northern Hemisphere and the other in the Southern Hemisphere. This image represents the southern field, located in the constellation Fornax. The entire GOODS survey reveals roughly 50,000 galaxies. Astronomers have identified more than 2,000 of them as infant galaxies, observed when the universe was less than about 2 billion years old.
Because infant galaxies are very faint and very rare, astronomers are using Hubble to search for them over a relatively wide swath of sky. In fact, the new observations cover about 60 times the area of the original Hubble Deep Field Observations, obtained in 1995. Astronomers also are using the Chandra X-ray Observatory to search the GOODS fields for the earliest black holes in the universe. The Space Infrared Telescope Facility (SIRTF) will sample these same fields soon after it is launched in August 2003.
By combining light from all three of NASA's great observatories with data from ground-based telescopes, astronomers hope to build a coherent picture of galaxy evolution.
This image of the southern field was assembled from observations taken between July 2002 and February 2003.

I have a relationship with the Creator. And I don't believe the universe is 13 billion years old. Although I'm not absolutely positive that it's not.
So maybe I'm missing theory of relativity.
I don't know, the fastest I've been is 150mph. Light didn't seem much different. But the dotted lines on the road did blurr together.

If you are on a plane travelling at 300 miles per hour and you look over and see a fly going by in the cabin. how fast is the fly going?????
GOODS aims to unite extremely deep observations from NASA's Great Observatories, SIRTF, Hubble, and Chandra, ESA's XMM-Newton, and from the most powerful ground-based facilities, to survey the distant universe to the faintest flux limits across the broadest range of wavelengths.
GOODS incorporates a SIRTF Legacy Program to carry out the deepest observations with that facility at 3.6 to 24 microns, an HST Treasury Program using the new Advanced Camera for Surveys to obtain deep, high angular resolution imaging at optical wavelengths, and the deepest X-ray observations with Chandra and XMM-Newton.
GOODS will survey a total of roughly 320 square arcminutes in two fields centered on the Hubble Deep Field North and the Chandra Deep Field South.
The space-based observations will be complemented by ground-based imaging and spectroscopy, including an extensive commitment of ESO and NOAO observing time.
Second, a low-end estimate of the hubble constant is 50km/s/Mpc. I think that means we'd be moving about .7c relative to a 13B light-year away galaxy.
Well, that's the way I understood it. But then it seems like the simple train station math ought to work.
If you have the following:
(BE)(S) = 13 billion (according to scientists)
So (BE)(S) = (XE)(C) or the destance of the earth from the big bang time the speed the earth has traveled must equal the distance from point X times the speed of light.
Or if Speed of galaxies = 1/4 the speed of light then point x should be 3/4ths the distance of the earth from the big bang. Meaning the distant galaxy would have to be 3/4 the age of the universe and that is as far back as we could look.
The faster the galaxies go the further we can look back until we are going the speed of light and then we should be able to see the big bang itself. But the slower we go, we shouldn't be able to look back very far at all.
The distance from the Bigbang to the earth times the speed of the earth
I know this is back of the envelope math, but it just seems counterintutive to what the scientists tell us about being able to look back and see a young cosmos.
Nope, unlike the fly in the aircraft, both the "moving" observor, on the spaceship, and the "stationary" observor, will measure the light to be moving 186,000 miles/second (3E8 meters/second). That is both Einstiens assumption in developing the equations of special relativity, and obervationally verified. As are at least some of the predictions of SR, such as time running slower for moving objects. (observed by measuring decay times of radioactive atomic nuclei moving at near lightspeed and at rest). Also the prediction that clocks run slower deeper in a gravity well has been verfied by observation/experiment.
As "Doc Brown" might say, you have to think fourth dimensionally to understand how we can possibly look back 12 billion years into the past.
Ah, but there is no "distance to the Big Bang" It was everywhere, in a certain sense. Sort of like the light being everywhere as reported in Genesis. The light (or energy) of the big bang filled the entire universe as it then existed. Took a while for the universe to "cool" enough that matter could even exist. At the energy density of the early universe, only energy could exist. Your calculation are for a Newtonian universe not one where special, not to mention general, relativity exists, such as the one we live in. Even when dealing with solid objects, velocities don't add or subtract vectorially as the speeds approach that of light. If your math were correct, and we were moving away from some object at say 1/2 c, we would measure the speed of the light from that object to be 1/2 c, but we don't, we measure it to be c. (It will be rather redshifted to a lower frequency however)
Which is exactly what current notions of the big bang indicate. The light filled the universe. We can even "see" it today. It's the general background radition we can measure in all directions, with an equivalent temperature of 3 degrees Kelvin (3 Celcius degrees above absolute zero) and it indeed is everywhere.
Actually the first "light" of creation has been seen. By COBE (COsmic Background Explorer). The "light" it saw predates the galaxies in the above Hubble photo by 700,000 years.
I can tell that your mind is open to every kind of new and exciting discovery and I'm certain you have the education and intellectual capacity to truly understand the significance of this most excellent discovery.
Damn, now I'm going to be wondering about that all day.
And does it matter if the fly is flying toward first class or toward the back? Does it matter which way the earth below is rotating? Does it matter if it's being chased by a frog someone brought on board?
Don't be intimidated by those who throw "Oh that's really simple" BS at you. I "are" an MIT-educated Aeronautical & Astronautical engineer (as we illiterate engineers say) - and I don't get it either. I never have - and I came to this thread hoping to ask the exact same question you did. So far, I haven't seen anybody demonstrate any understanding of it.
We need an astrophysicist to explain how we are either moving at a substantial fraction of the speed of light - in which case light itself is saying "Hold up!! (Pant, Pant) I gotta show you these 12 billion year old images of the beginning of the universe" - or how the other side of the universe that we're looking at - warp-drove away from us at many times the speed of light right after the Big Bang - and then deigned to slow down to show us what it was doing at 1 billion years old.
You've just redefined the meaning of a "light year".

Lacrosse Volunteers at Blood Drive
The Iona College lacrosse team volunteered at a blood drive held at SUNY Purchase was run by employees of the White Plains Hospital. The event was held in the student center at Purchase, and five girls on the team qualified to donate. All other team members stayed at the event to support the cause and to stay with teammates as they donated. The nurses were very pleased that we attended the event, mainly because the turnout was low and there is a very high demand for blood donations.

Studies confirm that geopolymer concrete has good compressive strength, tensile strength, flexural strength, modulus of elasticity and durability. These properties are comparable with OPC concrete.There are many occasions where concrete is exposed to elevated temperatures like fire exposure from thermal processor, exposure from furnaces, nuclear exposure, etc.. In such cases, understanding of the behaviour of concrete and structural members exposed to elevated temperatures is vital. Even though many research reports are available about the behaviour of OPC concrete at elevated temperatures, there is limited information available about the behaviour of geopolymer concrete after exposure to elevated temperatures. A preliminary study was carried out for the selection of a mix proportion. The important variable considered in the present study include alkali/fly ash ratio, percentage of total aggregate content, fine aggregate to total aggregate ratio, molarity of sodium hydroxide, sodium silicate to sodium hydroxide ratio, curing temperature and curing period. Influence of different variables on engineering properties of geopolymer concrete was investigated. The study on interface shear strength of reinforced and unreinforced geopolymer concrete as well as OPC concrete was also carried out. Engineering properties of fly ash based geopolymer concrete after exposure to elevated temperatures (ambient to 800 °C) were studied and the corresponding results were compared with those of conventional concrete. Scanning Electron Microscope analysis, Fourier Transform Infrared analysis, X-ray powder Diffractometer analysis and Thermogravimetric analysis of geopolymer mortar or paste at ambient temperature and after exposure to elevated temperature were also carried out in the present research work. Experimental study was conducted on geopolymer concrete beams after exposure to elevated temperatures (ambient to 800 °C). Load deflection characteristics, ductility and moment-curvature behaviour of the geopolymer concrete beams after exposure to elevated temperatures were investigated. Based on the present study, major conclusions derived could be summarized as follows. There is a definite proportion for various ingredients to achieve maximum strength properties. Geopolymer concrete with total aggregate content of 70% by volume, ratio of fine aggregate to total aggregate of 0.35, NaOH molarity 10, Na2SiO3/NaOH ratio of 2.5 and alkali to fly ash ratio of 0.55 gave maximum compressive strength in the present study. An early strength development in geopolymer concrete could be achieved by the proper selection of curing temperature and the period of curing. With 24 hours of curing at 100 °C, 96.4% of the 28th day cube compressive strength could be achieved in 7 days in the present study. The interface shear strength of geopolymer concrete is lower to that of OPC concrete. Compared to OPC concrete, a reduction in the interface shear strength by 33% and 29% was observed for unreinforced and reinforced geopolymer specimens respectively. The interface shear strength of geopolymer concrete is lower than ordinary Portland cement concrete. The interface shear strength of geopolymer concrete can be approximately estimated as 50% of the value obtained based on the available equations for the calculation of interface shear strength of ordinary portland cement concrete (method used in Mattock and ACI). Fly ash based geopolymer concrete undergoes a high rate of strength loss (compressive strength, tensile strength and modulus of elasticity) during its early heating period (up to 200 °C) compared to OPC concrete. At a temperature exposure beyond 600 °C, the unreacted crystalline materials in geopolymer concrete get transformed into amorphous state and undergo polymerization. As a result, there is no further strength loss (compressive strength, tensile strength and modulus of elasticity) in geopolymer concrete, whereas, OPC concrete continues to lose its strength properties at a faster rate beyond a temperature exposure of 600 °C. At present no equation is available to predict the strength properties of geopolymer concrete after exposure to elevated temperatures. Based on the study carried out, new equations have been proposed to predict the residual strengths (cube compressive strength, split tensile strength and modulus of elasticity) of geopolymer concrete after exposure to elevated temperatures (upto 800 °C). These equations could be used for material modelling until better refined equations are available. Compared to OPC concrete, geopolymer concrete shows better resistance against surface cracking when exposed to elevated temperatures. In the present study, while OPC concrete started developing cracks at 400 °C, geopolymer concrete did not show any visible cracks up to 600 °C and developed only minor cracks at an exposure temperatureof 800 °C. Geopolymer concrete beams develop crack at an early load stages if they are exposed to elevated temperatures. Even though the material strength of the geopolymer concrete does not decrease beyond 600 °C, the flexural strength of corresponding beam reduces rapidly after 600 °C temperature exposure, primarily due to the rapid loss of the strength of steel. With increase in temperature, the curvature at yield point of geopolymer concrete beam increases and thereby the ductility reduces. In the present study, compared to the ductility at ambient temperature, the ductility of geopolymer concrete beams reduces by 63.8% at 800 °C temperature exposure. Appropriate equations have been proposed to predict the service load crack width of geopolymer concrete beam exposed to elevated temperatures. These equations could be used to limit the service load on geopolymer concrete beams exposed to elevated temperatures (up to 800 °C) for a predefined crack width (between 0.1mm and 0.3 mm) or vice versa. The moment-curvature relationship of geopolymer concrete beams at ambient temperature is similar to that of RCC beams and this could be predicted using strain compatibility approach Once exposed to an elevated temperature, the strain compatibility approach underestimates the curvature of geopolymer concrete beams between the first cracking and yielding point. Division of Safety and Fire Engineering 2015-08-19T00:00:00Z A Study of Single Stage Semi‐Dry Anaerobic Digestion of Organic Fraction of Municipal Solid Waste Sajeena Beevi, B Madhu, G Sahoo, Dipak Kumar https://dyuthi.cusat.ac.in:443/xmlui/handle/purl/5027 2016-01-13T20:30:41Z 2015-04-01T00:00:00Z A Study of Single Stage Semi‐Dry Anaerobic Digestion of Organic Fraction of Municipal Solid Waste Sajeena Beevi, B; Madhu, G; Sahoo, Dipak Kumar Solid waste generation is a natural consequence of human activity and is increasing along with population growth, urbanization and industrialization. Improper disposal of the huge amount of solid waste seriously affects the environment and contributes to climate change by the release of greenhouse gases. Practicing anaerobic digestion (AD) for the organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW) can reduce emissions to environment and thereby alleviate the environmental problems together with production of biogas, an energy source, and digestate, a soil amendment. The amenability of substrate for biogasification varies from substrate to substrate and different environmental and operating conditions such as pH, temperature, type and quality of substrate, mixing, retention time etc. Therefore, the purpose of this research work is to develop feasible semi-dry anaerobic digestion process for the treatment of OFMSW from Kerala, India for potential energy recovery and sustainable waste management. This study was carried out in three phases in order to reach the research purpose. In the first phase, batch study of anaerobic digestion of OFMSW was carried out for 100 days at 32°C (mesophilic digestion) for varying substrate concentrations. The aim of this study was to obtain the optimal conditions for biogas production using response surface methodology (RSM). The parameters studied were initial pH, substrate concentration and total organic carbon (TOC). The experimental results showed that the linear model terms of initial pH and substrate concentration and the quadratic model terms of the substrate concentration and TOC had significant individual effect (p < 0.05) on biogas yield. However, there was no interactive effect between these variables (p > 0.05). The optimum conditions for maximizing the biogas yield were a substrate concentration of 99 g/l, an initial pH of 6.5 and TOC of 20.32 g/l. AD of OFMSW with optimized substrate concentration of 99 g/l [Total Solid (TS)-10.5%] is a semi-dry digestion system .Under the optimized condition, the maximum biogas yield was 53.4 L/kg VS (volatile solid).. In the second phase, semi-dry anaerobic digestion of organic solid wastes was conducted for 45 days in a lab-scale batch experiment for substrate concentration of 100 g/l (TS-11.2%) for investigating the start-up performances under thermophilic condition (50°C). The performance of the reactor was evaluated by measuring the daily biogas production and calculating the degradation of total solids and the total volatile solids. The biogas yield at the end of the digestion was 52.9 L/kg VS for the substrate concentration of 100 g/l. About 66.7% of volatile solid degradation was obtained during the digestion. A first order model based on the availability of substrate as the limiting factor was used to perform the kinetic studies of batch anaerobic digestion system. The value of reaction rate constant, k, obtained was 0.0249 day-1. A laboratory bench scale reactor with a capacity of 36.8 litres was designed and fabricated to carry out the continuous anaerobic digestion of OFMSW in the third phase. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of the digester at total solid concentration of 12% (semi-dry) under mesophlic condition (32°C). The digester was operated with different organic loading rates (OLRs) and constant retention time. The performance of the reactor was evaluated using parameters such as pH, volatile fatty acid (VFA), alkalinity, chemical oxygen demand (COD), TOC and ammonia-N as well as biogas yield. During the reactor's start-up period, the process is stable and there is no inhibition occurred and the average biogas production was 14.7 L/day. The reactor was fed in continuous mode with different OLRs (3.1,4.2 and 5.65 kg VS/m3/d) at constant retention time of 30 days. The highest volatile solid degradation of 65.9%, with specific biogas production of 368 L/kg VS fed was achieved with OLR of 3.1 kg VS/m3/d. Modelling and simulation of anaerobic digestion of OFMSW in continuous operation is done using adapted Anaerobic Digestion Model No 1 (ADM1).The proposed model, which has 34 dynamic state variables, considers both biochemical and physicochemical processes and contains several inhibition factors including three gas components. The number of processes considered is 28. The model is implemented in Matlab® version 188.8.131.524(R2010b). The model based on adapted ADM1 was tested to simulate the behaviour of a bioreactor for the mesophilic anaerobic digestion of OFMSW at OLR of 3.1 kg VS/m3/d. ADM1 showed acceptable simulating results. DIVISION OF SAFETY AND FIRE ENGINEERING SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING 2015-04-01T00:00:00Z FEM based Virtual Prototyping and Design of Third Harmonic Excitation System for Low Voltage Brushless Alternators Jiji, K S Jayadas, N H Babu, C A https://dyuthi.cusat.ac.in:443/xmlui/handle/purl/5024 2016-01-13T20:30:37Z 2015-05-01T00:00:00Z FEM based Virtual Prototyping and Design of Third Harmonic Excitation System for Low Voltage Brushless Alternators Jiji, K S; Jayadas, N H; Babu, C A Salient pole brushless alternators coupled to IC engines are extensively used as stand-by power supply units for meeting in- dustrial power demands. Design of such generators demands high power to weight ratio, high e ciency and low cost per KVA out- put. Moreover, the performance characteristics of such machines like voltage regulation and short circuit ratio (SCR) are critical when these machines are put into parallel operation and alterna- tors for critical applications like defence and aerospace demand very low harmonic content in the output voltage. While designing such alternators, accurate prediction of machine characteristics, including total harmonic distortion (THD) is essential to mini- mize development cost and time. Total harmonic distortion in the output voltage of alternators should be as low as possible especially when powering very sophis- ticated and critical applications. The output voltage waveform of a practical AC generator is replica of the space distribution of the ux density in the air gap and several factors such as shape of the rotor pole face, core saturation, slotting and style of coil disposition make the realization of a sinusoidal air gap ux wave impossible. These ux harmonics introduce undesirable e ects on the alternator performance like high neutral current due to triplen harmonics, voltage distortion, noise, vibration, excessive heating and also extra losses resulting in poor e ciency, which in turn necessitate de-rating of the machine especially when connected to non-linear loads. As an important control unit of brushless alternator, the excitation system and its dynamic performance has a direct impact on alternator's stability and reliability. The thesis explores design and implementation of an excitation i system utilizing third harmonic ux in the air gap of brushless al- ternators, using an additional auxiliary winding, wound for 1=3rd pole pitch, embedded into the stator slots and electrically iso- lated from the main winding. In the third harmonic excitation system, the combined e ect of two auxiliary windings, one with 2=3rd pitch and another third harmonic winding with 1=3rd pitch, are used to ensure good voltage regulation without an electronic automatic voltage regulator (AVR) and also reduces the total harmonic content in the output voltage, cost e ectively. The design of the third harmonic winding by analytic methods demands accurate calculation of third harmonic ux density in the air gap of the machine. However, precise estimation of the amplitude of third harmonic ux in the air gap of a machine by conventional design procedures is di cult due to complex geome- try of the machine and non-linear characteristics of the magnetic materials. As such, prediction of the eld parameters by conven- tional design methods is unreliable and hence virtual prototyping of the machine is done to enable accurate design of the third har- monic excitation system. In the design and development cycle of electrical machines, it is recognized that the use of analytical and experimental methods followed by expensive and in exible prototyping is time consum- ing and no longer cost e ective. Due to advancements in com- putational capabilities over recent years, nite element method (FEM) based virtual prototyping has become an attractive al- ternative to well established semi-analytical and empirical design methods as well as to the still popular trial and error approach followed by the costly and time consuming prototyping. Hence, by virtually prototyping the alternator using FEM, the important performance characteristics of the machine are predicted. Design of third harmonic excitation system is done with the help of results obtained from virtual prototype of the machine. Third harmonic excitation (THE) system is implemented in a 45 KVA ii experimental machine and experiments are conducted to validate the simulation results. Simulation and experimental results show that by utilizing third harmonic ux in the air gap of the ma- chine for excitation purposes during loaded conditions, triplen harmonic content in the output phase voltage is signi cantly re- duced. The prototype machine with third harmonic excitation system designed and developed based on FEM analysis proved to be economical due to its simplicity and has the added advan- tage of reduced harmonics in the output phase voltage. School of Engineering 2015-05-01T00:00:00Z Studies on Advanced Oxidation Processes for the Removal of Acetamiprid from Wastewater Fasnabi, P. A. Madhu, G https://dyuthi.cusat.ac.in:443/xmlui/handle/purl/5023 2016-01-13T20:30:36Z 2015-05-28T00:00:00Z Studies on Advanced Oxidation Processes for the Removal of Acetamiprid from Wastewater Fasnabi, P. A.; Madhu, G Pollution of water with pesticides has become a threat to the man, material and environment. The pesticides released to the environment reach the water bodies through run off. Industrial wastewater from pesticide manufacturing industries contains pesticides at higher concentration and hence a major source of water pollution. Pesticides create a lot of health and environmental hazards which include diseases like cancer, liver and kidney disorders, reproductive disorders, fatal death, birth defects etc. Conventional wastewater treatment plants based on biological treatment are not efficient to remove these compounds to the desired level. Most of the pesticides are phyto-toxic i.e., they kill the microorganism responsible for the degradation and are recalcitrant in nature. Advanced oxidation process (AOP) is a class of oxidation techniques where hydroxyl radicals are employed for oxidation of pollutants. AOPs have the ability to totally mineralise the organic pollutants to CO2 and water. Different methods are employed for the generation of hydroxyl radicals in AOP systems. Acetamiprid is a neonicotinoid insecticide widely used to control sucking type insects on crops such as leafy vegetables, citrus fruits, pome fruits, grapes, cotton, ornamental flowers. It is now recommended as a substitute for organophosphorous pesticides. Since its use is increasing, its presence is increasingly found in the environment. It has high water solubility and is not easily biodegradable. It has the potential to pollute surface and ground waters. Here, the use of AOPs for the removal of acetamiprid from wastewater has been investigated. Five methods were selected for the study based on literature survey and preliminary experiments conducted. Fenton process, UV treatment, UV/ H2O2 process, photo-Fenton and photocatalysis using TiO2 were selected for study. Undoped TiO2 and TiO2 doped with Cu and Fe were prepared by sol-gel method. Characterisation of the prepared catalysts was done by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, differential thermal analysis and thermogravimetric analysis. Influence of major operating parameters on the removal of acetamiprid has been investigated. All the experiments were designed using central compoiste design (CCD) of response surface methodology (RSM). Model equations were developed for Fenton, UV/ H2O2, photo-Fenton and photocatalysis for predicting acetamiprid removal and total organic carbon (TOC) removal for different operating conditions. Quality of the models were analysed by statistical methods. Experimental validations were also done to confirm the quality of the models. Optimum conditions obtained by experiment were verified with that obtained using response optimiser. Fenton Process is the simplest and oldest AOP where hydrogen peroxide and iron are employed for the generation of hydroxyl radicals. Influence of H2O2 and Fe2+ on the acetamiprid removal and TOC removal by Fenton process were investigated and it was found that removal increases with increase in H2O2 and Fe2+ concentration. At an initial concentration of 50 mg/L acetamiprid, 200 mg/L H2O2 and 20 mg/L Fe2+ at pH 3 was found to be optimum for acetamiprid removal. For UV treatment effect of pH was studied and it was found that pH has not much effect on the removal rate. Addition of H2O2 to UV process increased the removal rate because of the hydroxyl radical formation due to photolyis of H2O2. An H2O2 concentration of 110 mg/L at pH 6 was found to be optimum for acetamiprid removal. With photo-Fenton drastic reduction in the treatment time was observed with 10 times reduction in the amount of reagents required. H2O2 concentration of 20 mg/L and Fe2+ concentration of 2 mg/L was found to be optimum at pH 3. With TiO2 photocatalysis improvement in the removal rate was noticed compared to UV treatment. Effect of Cu and Fe doping on the photocatalytic activity under UV light was studied and it was observed that Cu doping enhanced the removal rate slightly while Fe doping has decreased the removal rate. Maximum acetamiprid removal was observed for an optimum catalyst loading of 1000 mg/L and Cu concentration of 1 wt%. It was noticed that mineralisation efficiency of the processes is low compared to acetamiprid removal efficiency. This may be due to the presence of stable intermediate compounds formed during degradation Kinetic studies were conducted for all the treatment processes and it was found that all processes follow pseudo-first order kinetics. Kinetic constants were found out from the experimental data for all the processes and half lives were calculated. The rate of reaction was in the order, photo- Fenton>UV/ H2O2>Fenton> TiO2 photocatalysis>UV. Operating cost was calculated for the processes and it was found that photo-Fenton removes the acetamiprid at lowest operating cost in lesser time. A kinetic model was developed for photo-Fenton process using the elementary reaction data and mass balance equations for the species involved in the process. Variation of acetamiprid concentration with time for different H2O2 and Fe2+ concentration at pH 3 can be found out using this model. The model was validated by comparing the simulated concentration profiles with that obtained from experiments. This study established the viability of the selected AOPs for the removal of acetamiprid from wastewater. Of the studied AOPs photo- Fenton gives the highest removal efficiency with lowest operating cost within shortest time.

Palmer, Mass. — Mohegan Sun executives sought to impress here Monday night, introducing a "dream team" of financiers and designers and unveiling a new look for the resort casino they hope to develop off Exit 8 of the Massachusetts Turnpike.
They seemed to largely succeed, earning positive feedback from town councilors and residents, though longstanding questions about traffic plans surfaced anew.
The session ended amid applause.
Mohegan Sun Massachusetts, its price tag now verging on $1 billion, has grown to include a 300,000-square-foot retail complex, a 70,000-square-foot "aquatic adventure park" and a second hotel in addition to the casino, hotel and other amenities originally planned.
"It's going to be like nothing the commonwealth has ever seen, like nothing any other operator is proposing," Mitchell Etess, the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority's chief executive officer, told the audience.
Project architect A. Eugene Kohn of Kohn Pedersen Fox described the layout, likening it to "designing a hill town in Italy or France." He said the buildings would be nestled among wetlands and forest and that steps were taken to minimize the project's footprint.
The aquatic park, an indoor-outdoor water park augmented by a "family-style" hotel, "hinges" the development to the site, Kohn said.
Some details of financing for the project also were revealed for the first time.
Doug Pardon, head of high yield research for Brigade Capital Management, the New York firm backing the casino portion of the project, said his firm is providing $110 million. Mohegan Sun is providing an undisclosed sum, and the remaining amount is to be financed through the debt markets, he said.
Pardon cited three reasons for Brigade's willingness to partner on the project: Mohegan Sun's reputation for quality; the 150-acre site's access from the highway; and the potential of the "untapped market" Massachusetts represents.
Finard Properties of Boston, whose CEO, Todd Finard, gave a presentation, is developing the retail complex and the aquatic park.
Paul Brody, Mohegan Sun's vice president for development, said Mohegan Sun still hopes to build a "flyover" from the Massachusetts Turnpike to the site but has also designed two other interchange options at the behest of the Massachusetts Department of Transportation. Mohegan Sun is prepared to proceed with whichever option the state prefers.
The Mohegan Sun project is seeking the one casino license the Massachusetts Gaming Commission will award for western Massachusetts, a prize also sought by MGM Resorts International and Hard Rock International. MGM has proposed an $800 million project for Springfield while Hard Rock's $700 million development would be built in West Springfield.
Bruce "Two Dogs" Bozsum, the Mohegan tribal chairman, said he believes the Mohegan Sun proposal clearly surpasses those of its competitors.
"It's bigger, it's more exciting, it represents a bigger investment, creates more jobs and will attract more people from out of state," he said. "It achieves everything the state's (expanded gambling) legislation was supposed to achieve. If we don't get the license for western Massachusetts, I don't see how we could have."
Mohegan Sun representatives have been negotiating a "host community agreement" with Palmer officials, a process both sides say should be completed this month. Once the agreement is reached, the town will conduct a binding referendum on the project, with local voters giving it the thumbs up or down.
"Today is the kick-off for the referendum campaign," Brody said. "We don't want to win 51 to 49. We want to win by a big margin."
If Mohegan Sun prevails — and there's a long way yet to go — it promises a casino opening in Palmer in the summer of 2016.

These are great mats. They fit my 2016 Camry perfectly. There is no oder. Compared to other rubber mats I have had they are very comfortable. With the black interior of my car the black mats sort of disappear which is great because I didn't want them to be the first thing you see when you open the door and get in. These should keep my car well protected and easier to clean. They are pricey but I think worth the money. I would purchase them again and would recommend them to my friends.

When a healthy person during vigorous exercise or straining has a sudden cough and a sense of suffocation or pain in the chest with severe congestive heart failure following, the largely unsolved problem of just why heart failure occurs when it does is highlighted. In some cases the symptoms progress without improvement from treatment and death soon follows. Rupture of the aortic valve from strain is one cause for such a sequence of events. Though rare, it is easy to recognize if one keeps in mind the characteristic signs, symptoms, and clinical course. This report illustrates the salient features of the syndrome in a case in which the condition was diagnosed during life.
C. P. Howard,1 in 1928, wrote the classic paper on the rupture by strain of the aortic valve. One of us (W. B. B.) recently reviewed the subject of precordial noises heard at a distance from

—To evaluate controlled evidence on the efficacy of distance medicine technologies in clinical practice and health care outcome.
Data Sources.
—Systematic electronic database and manual searches (1966-1996) were conducted to identify clinical trial reports on distance medicine applications.
Study Selection.
—Three eligibility criteria were applied: prospective, contemporaneously controlled clinical trial with random assignment of the intervention; electronic distance technology application in the intervention group and no similar intervention in the control group; and measurement of the intervention effect on process or outcome of care.
Data Extraction.
—Data were abstracted by independent reviewers using a standardized abstraction form and the quality of methodology was scored. Distance technology applications were described in 6 categories: computerized communication, telephone follow-up and counseling, telephone reminders, interactive telephone systems, after-hours telephone access, and telephone screening.
Data Synthesis.
—Of 80 eligible clinical trials, 61 (76%) analyzed providerinitiated communication with patients and 50 (63%) reported positive outcome, improved performance, or significant benefits, including studies of computerized communication (7 of 7), telephone follow-up and counseling (20 of 37), telephone reminders (14 of 23), interactive telephone systems (5 of 6), telephone access (3 of 4), and telephone screening (1 of 3). Significantly improved outcomes were demonstrated in studies of preventive care, management of osteoarthritis, cardiac rehabilitation, and diabetes care.
—Distance medicine technology enables greater continuity of care by improving access and supporting the coordination of activities by a clinician. The benefits of distance technologies in facilitating communication between clinicians and patients indicate that application of telemedicine should not be limited to physician-to-physician communication.

Some interesting thoughts from InformationWeek.
Collaboration is a challenge/solution/capability applied to a variety of business processes. One that's increasingly common is innovation.
There's a very definite momentum gathering in the formalization of technology driving the innovation process at the creative level.
I've talked before about creativity and how humans need the right tools to be creative. Innovation is the output of creativity and it can be as pronounced as a new product or a disruptive technology, or it can be a fresh approach to a marketing campaign or a business proposal.
Innovation is definitely a collaborative process. The great thing about a multi-faceted Business Productivity Infrastructure is the way it facilitates the collaborative, communicative and research-based components of idea generation and development.
Deborah Hopkins was recently appointed Chief Innovation Officer at Citi. A recognition of IT's role in innovation and the importance of innovation as an enabler of business advantage if ever I saw one.

Experimental Treatments? Unapproved But Not Always Unavailable
In this article
The Intervention of AIDS
Before the 1980s, a more paternalistic medical community argued that it was the government's job to protect patients from possible harm by withholding experimental drugs until there is proof that they work and are safe.
AIDS helped alter that view. Not only did that lethal disease spread with terrifying speed, but it struck a patient population capable of mounting a political response that grabbed the nation's attention and galvanized public health policymakers to reconsider long-held beliefs.
Experimental treatments should be available, The Washington Post quoted one activist at the time, "so people would be able to choose for themselves, working with their doctors, whether they want to risk taking a drug because of the possible benefits."
Critics accused FDA of denying dying patients access to possibly lifesaving drugs. To drive home the point, in October 1988, more than 1,000 gay activists staged a protest outside FDA's Rockville, MD, headquarters, trapping the agency's staff inside.
"FDA is the nexus between the government, the private sector and the consumer," the spokeswoman for one of the protest organizers told the Post. "That's why we're targeting (the agency)."
The protest had an effect. The agency, already focused on the issue by the urgency of AIDS, accelerated its reexamination of the way people with serious and life-threatening diseases could gain access to unproven remedies. Although the treatment IND regulations were finalized in 1987, FDA put in place additional mechanisms to make experimental drugs available to seriously ill patients earlier in the drug development process.
With the activism around AIDS and the demands of people with other serious illnesses for access to unproven treatments, the medical community, including FDA, began to appreciate that the traditional risk/benefit models may have been inappropriate for people with serious and life-threatening diseases. Dying patients were willing to take bigger risks for even the slenderest hope of benefit.
"The hope part of it is that it might work and keep them alive a little longer," says Theresa Toigo, Associate Commissioner for the Office of Special Health Issues. "Even if it is only two months, by then there might be a cure. It is a wonderful survival instinct."

With the home-video release of Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones, the franchise's creator chats with Spinoff Online about its past and future.
Executive producers Michael Green and Zack Estrin talk with Spinoff Online about their ambitious new ABC horror series The River, and how it may help to change network television.
A full-length trailer has premiered for The River, the new series from Oren Peli, Michael R. Perry and Michael Green. The horror drama premieres Tuesday on ABC.
Paranormal Activity and Insidious writer Oren Peli is producing a new post-apocalyptic thriller that began filming this week in Eastern Europe.
The trailer for the midseason drama suggests Steven Spielberg, Oren Peli & Co. may deliver edge-of-your-seat horror in their series about the search deep in the Amazon for a missing wildlife expert.
The Paranormal Activity franchise may have marked creator Oren Peli as a master of modern horror, but for his next project, he'll be working with one of the original masters: Edgar Allen Poe.

Just incase you're still skeptical that the Camera in your BlackBerry Curve will be able to record video... the following video provides the proof and also takes a quick look around some of the easily noticeable improvements to OS v4.3.1.
Seeing is Believing: The Proof Your BlackBerry Curve Can Record Video (plus a peak around OS v4.3.1)

Seeing is Believing: The Proof Your BlackBerry Curve Can Record Video (plus a peak around OS v4.3.1)
This is great, i am a newbie to BB Curve and have loved it since i got it a few weeks ago, now you guys are telling me that it is only going to get better before the end of the year??!!! You are looking at one guy who is happy he DIDN'T go the iPhone route. :-)
I don't know why you feel better about not getting the iphone...you can watch youtube videos, watch any video/movie/tv show for that matter, email, text, record video, take great pictures and edit them, etc, etc on the iphone. And when you surf the net, it actually is the net, not some tiny screen version. Everything looks and feels exactly like your laptop/desktop. I wish my job would get me an iphone instead of a blackberry...
actually the opera mini web browser for blackberrys is just as good as the iphone browser. Opera displays the whole page in tiny font and you choose which section you want to zoom in on. And its not a watered down Ive had both. I actually returned my iphone and went back to a blackberry. So with this browser, and now that it will do video, which the iphone cant (not to mention the iphone cant even do normal MMS)I would say blackberry takes the cake between the 2.
Kevin, you are the man! I cant wait for this OS to get released. my mouth is watering right now! C'mon Tmobile get on the ball and release it already..i want to start video recording and editing my word docs lol.
so when is this rolling out?
should be available before the end of the year!
Videos, videos, videos...
I can't wait. 4.3 is exciting!
L theme + video capture = ftw
Very cool. I am amazed at how fast your browser is. On my wife's Curve and my 8800, browser takes much longer to initialize, and the download is much slower, even when bars are full.
Thanks for sharing this with us. It looks great, I am not very thrilled about Video Recording, it is OK, but I love the home view changes, and I hope that a few things in addressbook have been updated, such as looking up contacts as you type. Windows Mobile has always been superior in contact management, and I hope BB catches up to that. Otherwise, I LOVE that it now enables you to open documents directly from the menu. This is great, I have been asking about this for a long time and it is there now! :)
You will know when OS 4.3.1 has arrived. It will be on blogs all over the Blackberry Internet as well as on Blackberry.com's site. Flash Player is possible for the Curve in the near future or some other way Blackberry decides to do it. When Blackberry sees everyone on the Net talking about wanting to view videos on You-Tube and many other locations they will certainly start working on it. It may be awhile though. Then you will have video clip recordings as well as pics and some version of Flash Player for viewing videos on all the known site.
Hope this helps you, John K.
The new OS 4.3.1 for the Curve is not released yet, I'm not sure when it will be released (I'm assuming sometime in the first quarter of 2008) so could be in next 30 days or after, but you will get this update.
For youtube videos (given you have a data plan) just go to www.google.com on your Blackberry and search youtube, it will automatically detect your on a mobile device and offer you content for your phone. A warning will pop up recommending you have an unlimited data plan. Since youtube is very data intensive for downloading video.
Does anyone know if the new upgrade will include FULL SCREEN picture ID instead of the ridiculous thumbnail image?
I've just got a new 8310 Curve (AT&T) and saw the video and downloaded the 4.3 desk top software to my laptop.
How can I get it sync'd to my device? I went thru the syncing, etc. but in the "about" are of option it's still indicating that I have the 4.2.2 version of the OS.
Any help on this is appreciated!!
Ok, it's now way past the end of 2007 (someone said this OS would be available before the end of the year). Where is this new OS??? And why doesn't T-Mobile yet have 3G as promised (in 2007, also late)....and why can't we stream any videos? Those of us with the new Curve can't even use the new "Videostreams for Blackberry" that was released because it's only for the Pearl. I can't even listen to audio books with Audible because they don't support the Curve. This Curve is nothing more than a glorified BLAH PDA.
Will this new OS allow a Sirius subscriber to stream from the web site?
That would be a real bonus
I have to second that one regardin what was said about the features the iphone lacks, one other feature the iphone lacks is the inability to use the song downloaded from (itunes only by the way) as ringtone where as the curve can be downloaded from any pc and the full song is able to play ur next rington. I am a retention specialist for T-Mobile and after pointing out features the bb curve has over the iphone then lettin them know how much the iphone is over the bb curve, they turn curvy on the iphone.
It all depends on what the user is looking for. I have both the Iphone (unlocked) and the BB Curve and I would not use anymore the Iphone because the BB is ment for work, not for playing around. I you only need internet and play music then get the Iphone. But if you need it for hard work, get the BB. Trust me.
So, I just recieved my Blackberry 8310 Curve today in the mail! So please if and whenever you can, send me the application, I will be greatly appreciated if you do! My email is: firstname.lastname@example.com!!! I just really want to be able to record videos of my kids from my phone and record songs so I can use it as a ringtone. Please and thank you [: <333
i tried to blackberry messenger you but i didn't get a response from you. my pin is 247cc7a5
I live in NW Arkansas and I'm on ATT as of now but I went and looked at Verizon and Sprint today and Both of their Curves were on the new OS. Browser's got a mouse pointer but I think you can disable it, video recording, and some other extras, I'm gonna switch to one of the two carriers soon. But I checked out ATT & BB's website and neither one had the upgrade for the curve...
I've searched high and low for this OS (I purchased my 8320 BB from Tmobile), can anyone PLEASE send me the software to email@example.com. My 7 month old son will greatly appreciate is mom recording his first words :)
hey does 4.5 work with att
So whats the verdict? I too have a T-Mobile Curve 8320 and am waiting for the new OS. T-Mobile site doesn't have the new OS.
I had a viedo camara on my 8330 when I got it in March, it was stolen, I just got another one, but it is an 8310, it doesn't take video, will this model be able to take videos as well? I can get any phone I want, but a friend of mine has an I phone, and his the touch screen has to be tapped several times, it doesn't read being tapped too often, I would rather have the buttons...
hey i tried downloading the os 4.3.1 and it didnt work for me . it deleted my all my blackberry programs and i had to start all over. no contacts no nothing my phon ewould even turn on . can someone email me the program their using if its working for their 8320 cuz i dont know what i did wrong
Could someone send the OS 4.5 to me also? I have spent hours online trying to find it! My e-mail is firstname.lastname@example.com Thanks!
I have updated my blackberry 8310 to version 4.5 but how come i am not able to get the word and power point application?
So I did it all. But the desktop version to upgrade to 220.127.116.11. And does anyone have the instructions for upgrading the OS on the actual DEVICE (PHONE)?? Thanks!
Hi... i just got my Blackberry curve and the video feature is not loaded. Can someone please tell me where to download the os v4.3.1? My email is firstname.lastname@example.com. Thank you.
I went to the bb website and its there right in front of our faces. Search for Blackberry device software and follow instructions. I am trying it now. Hope it works.
I just got my first BB (curve 8310 from ATT). Like so many above, I was SHOCKED that I couldn't record video. That's why I was paying for data on my old slider phone...to upload video of the kids. My BB came with v4.2. Please help me get the OS updated. I am clueless here.
I have a BB curve 8310 with OS 22.214.171.124. all you have to make sure you Desktop manager software available from this website--https://www.blackberry.com/Downloads/entry.do?code=A8BAA56554F96369AB93E.... Install the software and then connect your BB ,go to this link -http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/.Look for the middle box and choose (Update your blackberry device software online), You will be taken to the (check for Update)page and click on the Icon and the application loader will open up on your desktop manager and then it will scan your BB to check your OS and update as needed

City Kemper Gets Slapped
posted by June 19 at 14:54 PMon
How much does Kemper Freeman—last seen here comparing transit supporters to socialists and terrorists—hate transit? So much that he's opposing the joint roads and transit package even though it would build light rail directly to the large residential development he plans to build in downtown Bellevue.
Well, it turns out that the Bellevue Chamber of Commerce isn't on board with Kemper's anti-transit vendetta: they voted overwhelmingly today to support the package, with 21 votes in favor and five against.
Considering that Freeman more or less built downtown Bellevue, that's a pretty damning indictment.

WIPO Director General Addresses WSIS+10 High Level Event
WIPO Director General Francis Gurry addressed the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) +10 High-Level Event on June 10, 2014.
He said that "the Internet presents an unprecedented opportunity for the democratization of culture and knowledge." Noting that developing countries are rich in content and poor in distribution, he said "the Internet is a world stage which offers the most powerful distributional mechanism for the cultural richness of developing countries that we have ever seen".
He said that copyright is the main mechanism for financing cultural production.With the migration of cultural expressions to digital formats, we see the formation of a global digital content marketplace and the challenge for all is to ensure equitable and fair participation on the part of all countries. "For this, we need balanced regulatory frameworks, infrastructure and systems," he added.

Earlier this week, DailyTech reported that the 64GB Zune HD made an early appearance on the official Zune website. Although the link to the actual product was inactive, Microsoft's intentions were clearly made.
Today, Microsoft has officially confirmed the existence and upcoming release of the 64GB Zune HD. According to Microsoft, the new player will launch on April 12 at a price of $349.99. For comparison, Apple's 64GB iPod touch rings up at $399.
In addition to the pricing and availability information for the 64GB Zune HD, Microsoft also announced that the existing 16GB and 32GB models will each receive a $20 price reduction.
Updated 4/9/2010
Microsoft just let us know that the 64GB Zune HD is now available to order in Platinum, Black, Blue, Red, Green, Purple and Magenta.

quote: I still hate the name....
quote: Supported 720p HD video files play on the player, downscaled to fit the screen at 480 x 272 – not HD resolution.

Equitance Brightening Collection: Pearly Perfection
I started using the Equitance Brightening Collection six months ago, hoping to bolster my daily routine with some much-needed nourishment. Most Asian women care more about flawless skin than makeup (if you don't have dark spots or discoloration, what's there to cover up?), and this Japanese line gives you that naturally beautiful look.
In Depth Into Chantecaille at Their NYC Headquarters
I stopped by Chantecaille's glossy Soho headquarters a few days ago to meet with Kristen Ott, who handles the brand's public relations and Eddie Hernandez who is the brand's in-house makeup pro (that's his tattoo and arm above!).
RéVive Intensité Line Erasing Serum: Tight & Right
Forget injectables! The latest serum from RéVive imitates the firming and tightening without any needle needed (and without a frozen, overdone brow as a result).
Origins: Anti-Aging Power Serum
Anti-aging is an eternal quest but if you find the right products that can halt the dreaded trauma in your life, it is a true miracle. I started preventing aging before I actually started aging. I am that obsessed. But once I turned 40, you can only imagine how that ramped up to a fever pitch.
The End of Summer Glow: Get Up & Glow
I switch up beauty routines each season to challenge my skin, testing out new products while also keeping tried-and-true must-haves in the rotation. For over a decade, I've hoped that one of these regimens would give me the perfect dewy glow, and with the latest, I've finally cracked the code!

Resveratrol: A Key Anti-Aging Ingredient
Caudalie has build a veritable empire on the antioxidant power of grapes. In fact, before anyone in mainstream beauty was talking about antioxidants, they maintained that resveratrol (obtained from the skins of Cabernet Sauvignon grapes), had tremendous anti-aging benefits and was the first skincare brand to use it topically – and the first to patent it in stabilized levels.
