New Space Toilet Ready To Drop (!) In 2014
The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) believe they've solved the age-old problem of how to shit in space.
The current ISS toilet is a Russian-built, western-style commode that sucks waste away like a vacuum cleaner. Use of that toilet requires practice before heading to space, particularly because an improperly seated user has the potential to create a messy situation.
Clean and easy to use, the envisioned space toilet is designed to be worn like a diaper around the astronaut's waist at all times. Sensors detect when the user relieves him or herself, automatically activating a rear-mounted suction unit that draws the waste away from the body through tubes into a separate container. In addition to washing and drying the wearer after each use, the next-generation space toilet will incorporate features that eliminate unwanted sound and odor.
No offense, JAXA, but that sounds a little like overkill. Here's a much simpler and cost effective solution: shit yo pants! Then put them in a bag, and throw them out the nearest air-lock. Extra points for hitting a passing UFO.
Next-generation space toilet ready in five years [pinktentacle
Thanks to abovedefault and Praveen, who don't need vacuum-diapers because they digest everything. That's right, everything. Even gum.
Mmmm, space beer. It's the stuff my sci-fi fantasies are made of. Well, that, and the aquamarine breasts of alien chicks. Well now fantasy and reality collide -- with honest-to-God space beer (sort of)! The beer will be made with barley -- to be harvested this weekend -- de... / Continue →

Ma Nishtana

Music for Holidays |
Ma Nishtana (Hebrew: מה נשתנה, "What has changed?," from the first line of the song) are the four questions sung during the Passover Seder. Often referred to as The Four Questions in English, the Four Questions are traditionally asked by the youngest child at the table who is able. The questions are included in the haggadah as part of the Maggid (מגיד) section.
The questions originate in the Mishna, Pesachim 10:4, but are quoted differently in the Jerusalem and Babylonian Talmuds. The Jerusalem Talmud only records three questions; why foods are dipped twice as opposed to once, why matzah is eaten, and why the meat sacrifice is eaten exclusively roasted. (The last question is a reference to the paschal sacrifice which was fire-roasted).[1] The Babylonian Talmud quotes four questions; why matza is eaten, why maror is eaten, why meat is eaten exclusively roasted, and why food is dipped twice.[2] The version in the Jerusalem Talmud is also the one most commonly found in manuscripts.[3] As the paschal sacrifice was not eaten after the destruction of the temple, the question about the meat was dropped.[4] The Rambam and Saadia Gaon both add a new question to the liturgy to replace it: "why do we recline on this night?"[3] Ultimately, the question of reclining was maintained, in part to create a parallelism between the number of questions and the other occurrences of the number four in the hagaddah.[3]
Contemporary tunes[edit]
One of the current tunes widely used for the Ma Nishtana was written by Ephraim Abileah in 1936 as part of his oratorio "Chag Ha-Cherut".[5]
Current text[edit]
English | Transliteration | Hebrew |
What has changed, this night, from all the other nights? |
Mah nishtanah, ha-laylah ha-zeh, mi-kol ha-leylot? |
מה נשתנה, הלילה הזה מכל הלילות |
That in all other nights we eat both chametz and matzah, on this night, we eat only matzah? |
She-b'khol ha-leylot 'anu 'okhlin chameytz u-matzah, ha-laylah ha-zeh, kulo matzah? |
שבכל הלילות אנו אוכלין חמץ ומצה הלילה הזה, כלו מצה |
That in all other nights we eat many vegetables, on this night, maror? |
She-b'khol ha-leylot 'anu 'okhlin sh'ar y'raqot, ha-laylah ha-zeh, maror? |
שבכל הלילות אנו אוכלין שאר ירקות הלילה הזה, מרור |
That in all other nights we do not dip vegetables even once, on this night, we dip twice? |
She-b'khol ha-leylot 'eyn 'anu matbilin 'afilu pa`am 'achat, ha-laylah ha-zeh, shtey fe`amim? |
שבכל הלילות אין אנו מטבילין אפילו פעם אחת הלילה הזה, שתי פעמים |
That in all other nights some eat sitting and others reclining, on this night, we are all reclining? |
She-b'khol ha-leylot 'anu 'okhlin beyn yoshvin u-veyn m'subin, ha-laylah ha-zeh, kulanu m'subin? |
שבכל הלילות אנו אוכלין בין יושבין ובין מסובין הלילה הזה, כולנו מסובין |
Alternate texts[edit]
The custom of the Hasidic Chabad-Lubavitch community places the order of the four questions as follows: 1. Dipping the food 2. Eating matzah 3. Eating bitter herbs 4. Reclining.[6]
Contemporary use[edit]
The four questions are traditionally asked by the youngest person at the table that is able to do so.[7] Much of the seder is designed to fulfill the biblical obligation to tell the story to one's children,[8] and many of the customs that have developed around the Four Questions are designed to pique a child's curiosity about what is happening in order to hold their attention.[7]
Idiomatic usage[edit]
The phrase "ma nishtanah" is sometimes used colloquially by some Jewish families in an ironic sense, to express the opinion that some behavior or situation under discussion is not unusual. For example:
- Child: "Dad's in a bad mood today."
- Mother: "Ma nishtanah?"

I know of a good site that has some relevant videos in regards to some of these new designs. In particular, there is an image that is in reference to the "Sky Hook" retrieval system. I'll post that video link but the site has a couple great video about UAV new battery technologies and nano drones as well.

Michael Petrou of Maclean's magazine told HuffPost Canada he was responsible for the letter, which we deem to be pretty much the greatest thing ever.
In conclusion, you're doing it wrong. It's supposed to look like this:
Also on HuffPost:

Some brief notes about our order process and shipping policy:
Shipping Methods Parcel Select packages may take 5-10 business days or more after we have shipped your order, however the postal service will not guarantee a specific delivery time for this type of standard shipping. All packages shipped USPS are picked up on a daily basis M-F excluding holidays. While the USPS lists the shipping information on their website as "tracking" this is not a true end-to-end tracking process used by other shippers and may not be updated accurately until after delivery. We include delivery confirmation on our orders at our cost to verify final delivery of your item. Priority Mail is the preferred shipping method for customers requiring timely delivery and online tracking. The shipping charge for Priority Mail also includes our expedited processing of your package to help speed up the process. Priority Mail packages typically take 2-4 business days to deliver after we have processed the order, and may vary depending upon holidays and rural delivery routes in your area where applicable. Additionally, please note that delivery time is also based on "business" days, Monday through Friday during normal business hours. For example, if you place an order on Sunday, it's impossible for us to ship an item the same day as all the shippers are closed. The same would apply to orders received after normal business hours. Example: an order placed after 4:00 pm (Pacific time) Friday will be processed the following Monday. We do not normaly offer express shipping as this often takes us away from processing other customer orders in a timely manner. If you require expedited shipping beyond the Priority Mail option please contact CV Performance for our addional fees and conditions. Delivery Time is dependent on several factors:
Free Shipping Offers Orders over $10 qualify for Free Shipping at our expense, which will be shipped by standard ground mail. Free shipping promotions are available on domestic shipments only and only apply to orders placed online. Free shipping cannot be applied to brake pads however they will be shipped by Priority Mail and not charged the normal handling fee. International Orders and Shipping Due to recent drastic increases in shipping charges imposed by USPS, Canada Post, and other global carriers, our shipping charges have been adjusted effective immediately. All orders made from outside of the U.S. MUST be made through Paypal, no exceptions. We do not accept orders placed from other countries and shipped to secondary US addresses without assessing a delivery fee with signature confirmation. Shipping costs are calculated at checkout and include both the cost of shipping, international bank process fees, and special processing on our part. Special delivery fees (signature from secondary ship-to address) is extra. Shipping charges are subject to change. We do not ship by regular mail since this does not conform with customs or supply a shipping confirmation required by credit card processors. Orders are not accepted using a foreign billing address and shipped to a U.S. address to avoid customs or shipping charges. Orders received where the billing and shipping address do not match will be held until verification can be made through the bank processor and may require an additional delivery fee. International orders will ship within 2-3 business days of funds clearing our bank (*after received from Paypal). Attempts to circumvent these policies will result in a cancellation of the order and our right to retain any loss of bank fees. We reserve the right tocancel or deny orders based on our experience shipping to various countries. Also we do not accept orders using international forwarding services. Use of a forwarding service without our knowledge voids our responsibility for accurate delivery. Canada – Packages are sent by Priority Mail and are subject to delays with US/Canadian Customs processing. Delivery times vary from 7-19 business days after processing* not counting weekends or US holidays. International orders will be packed for shipping within 2-3 business days after funds clearing our bank (*after received from Paypal). Orders outside of the U.S. cannot be shipped to a PO Box. We do not accept orders using a Canadian billing address and shipped to a U.S. address to avoid customs or shipping charges. Under special circumstances a secondary shipping address in the US will be accepted however a signature is required and delivery fees will be charged prior to shipping. Orders received where the billing and shipping address do not match will be held until verification can be made through the bank processor. Attempts to circumvent these policies will result in a cancellation of the order and our right to retain any loss of bank fees. We are not the postal service and take no responsibility for any delays on their part.

Maybe we should ask Betty White, who turned 90 in January of this year and is still going strong. She even has a brand new show that hit the TV on NBC this past Wednesday, "Off Their Rockers." This is in addition to her continued role as Elka on TV Land's "Hot in Cleveland."
So, what is it that makes us all love Betty White?
That is precisely what my hero, Betty White, speaks to me.
Its genius the way she smiles from ear-to-ear while being thoroughly insulting and obnoxious. It's a thing of beauty, really...
...vicious, sarcastic and humorous?
I am truly undeserving of such a compliment...Thank you!
#1 -- She's FUNNY! Her comedic timing is spot on.
#2 -- She's sharp. At 90 years old she has somehow managed to keep her mind honed and stay in touch with the "now". Maybe it's just good genes, but I think most of us would like to think she has taken care of herself mentally and physically.
#3 -- She stands up for animals. I love that she puts her love of her pets into advocacy. It's great, and I am sure it helps keep her motivated and focused.
When I am 90 (or heck, 80) I'd love to be as sharp as Betty White. She's a great role model for aging well.

Powering the search for more women in tech
Internet ethicist Irina Raicu J.D. '09 considers Google's attempt to recruit more women engineers. The following op/ed first appeared in WSJ Marketwatch on June 14, 2013.
In the Q&A following a recent keynote address at Google's developer conference (I/O 2013), CEO Larry Page made an unusual admission. He said that he and Sergey Brin had been working on a particular problem "forever."
The intractable problem that even Google hasn't been able to solve so far was the recruitment of women—a symptom of the underrepresentation of women in tech.
Page added that "the only answer is we have to start early and make sure we get more women and girls excited [about] technology." For the leader of a company that prides itself on innovation, on the desire to solve big problems, on "disruption," this seemed a particularly pat reply.
As engineering and programming become increasingly important, we can't keep conceding those fields to one gender, or falling back on answers that have proven inadequate.
Even if we do get girls excited about technology, the reality is that the dropout rates among women engineers and programmers have remained high.
If you've been doing something "forever" and it still doesn't work, you need to try something new, or refocus your efforts. How about encouraging Google's engineers to spend 20 percent of their time researching and proposing solutions for this issue?
Willingness to learn from other countries might also help. For some reason, China, India, Russia, and Eastern European countries turn out much higher percentages of women engineers than the U.S. does—and they've been doing so for decades. (My mom and stepmom are both engineers—raised and educated in Romania; many of my women friends in Silicon Valley are engineers—raised and educated in Israel and India.)
What happens in those countries, which have such different cultures, economies, histories, and educational systems, that prompts women to become engineers? What are the incentives that keep those women in engineering? Can any of those practices be translated for the U.S.?
As Heather Kelly reports in a CNN article titled "Google's Quest to Get More Women in Tech," the Silicon Valley giant has indeed been making efforts to address this issue. The company offers a variety of internships, scholarships, and other programs directed at women engineers and programmers. And due to concerted effort, the percentage of women attendees at I/O 2013 reportedly rose into the teens (in contrast to previous years).
But Google had to import some of them: Kelly writes that Google invited "talented women in the field from around the world" to the conference.
Google also held a "social for female I/O attendees," at which participants "were invited to meet their peers, enjoy some wine and food from the Google kitchen, and then break off into teams to create unique projects using littleBits and arts and crafts supplies."
What would Ellen Ullman have made of that? A software engineer, Ullman recently published an opinion piece in the New York Times titled "How to Be a 'Woman Programmer'." In it she writes about her passion for her work—her "deep need to probe the mysterious space between human thoughts and what a machine can understand; between human desires and how machines might satisfy them."
She also writes about the rampant sexism that she encountered throughout her career, and says things have gotten worse. "We women found ourselves nearly alone," she writes, "outsiders in a culture that was sometimes boyishly puerile, sometimes rigorously hierarchical, occasionally friendly and welcoming. This strange illness meanwhile left the female survivors with an odd glow that made them too visible, scrutinized too closely, held to higher standards." Or perhaps invited to arts and crafts events just for them.
To be fair, Google's I/O didn't just include arts and crafts socials—it also offered on-site day care for attendees' kids. And the social event was probably an effort to combat the phenomenon that Ullman describes, of women feeling few and far between in the male-dominated world of developers. The invitations that Google extended to women developers from around the globe may even be an acknowledgment of the national dimensions of the lack of women in tech. But increasing the visibility of such women is not enough.
As engineering and programming become increasingly important, we can't keep conceding those fields to one gender, or falling back on answers that have proven inadequate.
It may not be Google's responsibility to come up with a solution to what is likely a broad societal problem, but I believe that Page and Brin are sincere in their desire to "disrupt" this reality. Google's leaders drive a hugely powerful engine of change.
Is their seriousness of purpose in this area commensurate with that power? Because we need a better search for a solution to the underrepresentation of women in tech.

The vagueness of the restrictions imposed by the new media legislation is very concerning and highly likely to have an adverse effect on freedom of expression. ... Facing the possibility of stringent fines or even closure, many journalists and editors are likely to choose the 'safe' option of modifying their content. ... The breadth of the restrictions, the lack of clear guidelines for journalists and editors and the strong powers of the new regulatory body all risk placing unnecessary and disproportionate restrictions to freedom of expression in Hungary.
The Hungarian Parliament [official website, in Hungarian] approved the law [Reuters report] in December, amid protests and criticism. In 2008, the Constitutional Court of Hungary [official website] struck down [JURIST report] two proposals passed by the country's parliament to criminalize hate speech as unconstitutional infringements on the freedom of expression. The court held that the extremist speech that the amendments sought to prevent was not a danger to society because it was already marginalized. The first bill would have allowed recovery in cases where a person's ethnic group, rather than the individual person, was insulted. The second bill would have designated national, ethnic, racial or religious insults as misdemeanors punishable by up to two years in prison.

How Much Do Bank Shocks Affect Investment? Evidence from Matched Bank-Firm Loan Data |
March 2013 Number 604 Revised July 2013 |
JEL classification: E44, G21 |
Authors: Mary Amiti and David E. Weinstein We show that supply-side financial shocks have a large impact on firms' investment. We do this by developing a new methodology to separate firm-borrowing shocks from bank supply shocks using a vast sample of matched bank-firm lending data. We decompose loan movements in Japan for the period 1990 to 2010 into bank, firm, industry, and common shocks. The high degree of financial institution concentration means that individual banks are large relative to the size of the economy, which creates a role for granular shocks as in Gabaix (2011). As a result, bank supply shocks--that is, movements in the supply of bank loans net of borrower characteristics and general credit conditions--can have large impacts on aggregate loan supply and investment. We show that these bank supply shocks explain 40 percent of aggregate loan and investment fluctuations.

Using this streamlined process, the corps issues a permit with a standards set of environmental guidelines. Mining operators are then authorized to bury streams if the submit a general plan to follow those guidelines. There is far less regulatory scrutiny, or public notice and comment, than if companies go through the more rigorous individual permit process.
For years, the corps approved valley fills -- burying hundreds of miles of streams with waste rock and dirt from mountaintop removal mines -- with the streamlined process.
Industry officials defend mountaintop removal as highly efficient and say it provides high-paying jobs in a depressed region of the coalfields. But scientific journals report a growing consensus that the practice does immense damage to forests and water quality across the Appalachian region.
U.S. District Judge Joseph R. Goodwin has twice blocked the corps from using streamlined permits for strip mines in Southern West Virginia. One of his decisions was overturned on appeal and another is being challenged by the mining industry.
Meg Gaffney-Smith, chief of the corps' regulatory program, told reporters Thursday that Goodwin's ruling played no role in the agency's decision to abandon the streamlined process. Gaffney-Smith also refused to comment on why the corps had joined the industry in filing a notice that it planned to appeal the judge's decision.
And the corps did not rule out trying to bring back the streamlined permit process, calling Thursday's announcement "an interim measure" that would remain in effect until the corps "takes further action" on the matter.
In its decision document, the corps said agency officials have "concerns that continued use of this permit in the Appalachian region of these six states may result in more than minimal individual and cumulative adverse effects to aquatic resources.
"Activities resulting in more than minimal individual and cumulative impacts to the aquatic environment cannot be authorized by NWPs or other general permits," the corps said.
Corps officials said that using individual permits instead would give agency officials more detailed information on which to base their decisions, and would give more opportunity for the public to comment on proposed permits before mining is allowed.

OKLAHOMA CITY -- University of Oklahoma President David Boren says he believes O-U received a "totally fair" hearing today from an N-C-A-A Committee on Infractions.

In a written response to the N-C-A-A O-U strongly disagreed with

Overall Rating:
true to size true to width
I ordered these boots because I needed something when I''m doing yard work or working around the house or shop. I usually have a difficult time finding something I like because I have a narrow foot and there seems to be few to no choices for my size. When I first tried them on they were a little tight but after wearing them around the house for severak hours they seemed to mold to my feet. They seem to break in quickly and now they are very comfortable. These should last a long time for me. Very well made boot. Highly recommend.
Review By: John Wentzvile MO 1/30/2013
half size large fits wide
Boots fit bigger than the ones I tried on of the same style and manufacturer and size at a local store. Not near as comfortable as the ones I tried on here. Your price was better but maybe not worth it if the shoes run different size. Shipping was super fast though.
Review By: Carol Philadelphia 11/1/2012
As I said before my husband loves these shoes more than me right nowjokethese boots are the best as having his size and width. My husband is of the big and tall stature and very difficult to find boots that fit him perfectly. We traveled three states looking for quaily and durable work boots for him it was hell but thanks to Carolina we no longer have that problem THANK YOU And he''s has spotted a pair of casaul dress shoes so the orders will be coming again really soon so keep an eye out for usLOVE YA CAROLINA Mrs Lee
Review By: Marc So. Calif 10/11/2012
Sometimes I just don''t realize how poor a bad fitting boot is until I finally get a good one. 3 pairs of Carolina''s ought to do the trick - I''m a believer. Good price good shipping Great Boot No hassles. Fits right out of the box and I know when I get home if I''m Ok to leave it on instead of taking it off as soon as I get in the door it''s a good boot. I actually look forward to putting on my work boots now.
Review By: Phillip lansing Mi 9/27/2012
These are a great heavy duty pair of work boots. They are stiff at first and need some breaking in time. Takes about two weeks to really get them comfortable and broken in.
Review By: Travis nebraska 6/18/2012
fit good just tryin to break them in.

Review By: Pedro Stockton Ca. 7/19/2011
I have purchased just about every work boot brand you can think of from $300 Red Wings to $50 run-of-the-mill brand. And used to buy them almost once a year I have an old pair of Carolina Lineman boots 15yrs old- I only use them to climb so I decided to try some more Carolina''s. I''ll say this I purchased this boot in March ''09 and I am just now buying their replacement in June ''11 I beat the crap out of this boot and just now noticed the sole is worn smooth and the leather is still in decent shape. I work construction and this boot has seen every thing...ladders telephone poles mud water dirt etc etc. If your thinking about buying do it. Its a great boot.

Source: economist.comReading Rec: Italy 0-0 England: Pirlo dictates the game
By Zonal Marking
We're still waiting for Italy to produce completely convincing display – for all their dominance here, their finishing was dreadful. They've only scored one goal from open play in the competition, and have only beaten one side, Ireland, who had already been eliminated. Their possession play is impressive and Pirlo has been one of the competition's star players, but they'll surely need to be more ruthless in the final third to win the competition.

Remembering a day when the Azzurri were not as lucky in their penalty kicks. They lost this semi-final match to Argentina (who eventually lost to West Germany). Italy's opponent in the third place match, England, had also lost their semi-final match on penalties to the Germans. Italy beat England in that match as well, but they managed to do it without extra time/penalties.
Also-Maldini is 21 here, but he looks EXACTLY the same as when he retired.
Azzurri to face Argentina in the semifinal of World Cup 1990:
Walter Zenga, Paolo Maldini, Fernando de Napoli, Riccardo Ferri, Beppe Bergomi; Franco Baresi, Giuseppe Giannini, Roberto Donadoni, Toto Schillaci, Gianluca Vialli, Luigi de Agostini

Unfortunately, the England-Italy match prevented me from attending the 2012 NYC Gay Pride festivities today. But in honor of the occasion…
I love how yahoo captioned this photo "A United States fan wears a T-shirt showing her support for goalkeeper Hope Solo". Indeed.
Hope Solo is quite popular with the ladies.

Forests have been blacked out in the economic assessment of the country. The Economic Survey does not even list forestry as a sector, for which accounts are prepared. Instead it is lumped together with agriculture and fisheries. In other words, there are no estimates of the productivity of this sector, which encompasses over 20 per cent of the country's land area.
Durban, December 8, 2011: At the deliberations on REDD+ in the meetings of the SBSTA (Subsidiary Body for Scientific and Technological Advice), India has reportedly devoted its time and energy in ensuring safeguards for the rights of indigenous communities and for conserving natural forests, giving the lie to the impression that nothing was being done on the issue. In fact, Indian negotiators point out that of the three elements under discussion in the SBSTA (safeguards, MRV and benchmarks), safeguards is the only one which has been thoroughly discussed.
We were standing at the edge of what looked like a swamp—grass and pools and streams. On one side was heavily barricaded land with high walls, barbed wires and armed security. A board read: East Coast Energy, Kakarapalli. This was where a bloody battle had taken place a few months ago. People protesting the takeover of their wetland were shot at and three lost their lives. Now the site of the 2,640 MW thermal power plant is under siege—locked and in court.
Forest conservation effort in Meghalaya can claim carbon benefits.
My position on the need to re-position forests in development (see 'Rethink growth with forest capital', Down To Earth, May 16-31) has brought me a huge response. On the one hand are those who argue that functions of forests already include conservation vital to life; they need to be valued and protected. The unsaid (and often stressed) corollary is that any discussion on the need to improve productivity of forests through the involvement of people needs to be shunned. The stretched and simplistic positioning of this view is that forests and people cannot go together.
The definition is contested as the answer has immense economic implications. If bamboo is a tree or timber, it belongs to the forest department and can be auctioned to the paper and pulp industry, often at throwaway rates. If it is a grass, then it would be classified as a minor forest produce and people would have the right to cut bamboo for sale or for value addition by making furniture or baskets.
