Well-organized big data get together in the densely distributed sensor networks is, therefore, a challenging research area. One of the most effective solutions to address this challenge is to utilize the sink node's mobility to facilitate the data gathering. While this technique can reduce energy consumption of the sensor nodes, the use of mobile sink presents additional Challenges such as determining the sink node's trajectory and cluster formation prior to data collection. In this paper, we propose a new mobile sink routing and data gathering method through network clustering based on modified ExpectationMaximization (EM) technique. In addition, we derive an optimal number of clusters to minimize the energy consumption. The effectiveness of our proposal is verified through numerical results.
Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks has to take into account the limited battery resources of the nodes. Sensor nodes can also be powered by other energy sources like solar energy. This paper provides a review of Environment monitoring using Wireless Sensor Networks. The issues related to environment sensor networks is highlighted. The real time applications in environment monitoring is presented with emphasis on energy conservation. Furthermore in this paper we address the problem of scavenging energy using solar powered devices.
Clustering technique is the basic technique used in the wireless sensor network to enhance the lifetime of a sensor network by mitigating energy consumption and provide efficiency, scalability, and security. Formerly sensor nodes are considered to be homogeneous in which each node has the same processing capacity, energy and functionality, but to prolong network lifetime researches has been evolved to infuse heterogeneity in wireless sensor network such as to provide different energy level to some nodes. In this paper, we present a survey on basic clustering techniques for Heterogeneous wireless sensor networks.

As the world runs fast, its our duty to run with the world compensating its speed. There is an urge to prove everyone unique. Hence time management play a worthless role in the daily work of a person. At morning it is a herculean task to wake up from the bed.

In this paper we propose a novel "Murderer Algorithm" based automatic waking up system that helps to wake up every morning. The uniqueness of the system is to make the person in the bed to wakeup and get away from the bed. The device employs simple capacitive touch sensor to sense the presence of a person and also a brig

September 17, 2009
On Thursday, Keith J. Hawksworth, CEO, Parsons Brinckerhoff Inc. (PB) announced that the company's board of directors and executive committee are recommending that shareholders approve the acquisition of PB by the London-based infrastructure firm Balfour Beatty plc (BB) for $626 million. PB's shareholders' meeting will take place on October 21st.
"We have for some time sought a strategic partner that complements the services we provide, which would assist us in our on-going global expansion," said Hawksworth. "Balfour Beatty shares our values, our culture and our commitment to professionalism, integrity and technical excellence - principles that have guided us for nearly 125 years and Balfour Beatty for the last century."
In a letter to all employees sent earlier in the day, Hawksworth explained, "The combination [of Balfour Beatty] with PB creates an organization with world-class capabilities in project development (including financing), design, management or delivery of construction services, and the operations and maintenance that can be provided through our combined local office global footprint."
James L. Lammie, PB's chairman of the board, added, "Balfour Beatty has agreed that Parsons Brinckerhoff will retain its name and organizational structure and operate as an independent but wholly-owned subsidiary. We believe this will allow us to continue to meet our clients' needs in ways they expect while expanding into new areas that will provide additional opportunities for our employees."
The two firms are highly complementary, with PB greatly assisting in expanding Balfour Beatty's vision in becoming a global integrated leader in infrastructure services through the addition of world-class professional services capabilities. Client service will be a prime focus of the combined organization with no changes in project managers, technical staff and/or executive leadership with whom PB's clients work as a result of the acquisition, according to PB.
The acquisition must be approved by the shareholders of both organizations.
In 2008, PB had revenues of $2.34 billion and approximately 13,000 employees in more than 100 offices worldwide. The publicly traded Balfour Beatty has approximately 40,000 employees and last year had revenues of approximately $15 billion.

Black History is a three-sided story for me. There is the history I have lived and witnessed, the stories my research and reading has taught me, and the history my mother and father taught me from their experiences. From my relatively short life, I have seen some of the most amazing changes in America's social fabric, topped off twice with the election of Barack Obama as President of these United States of America.
Wednesday, 29 January 2014 14:26
Next month is the official time set for Black History Month. However, the life of every African American family is a contributor to Black History, every month and every day. I can remember things that happened that made my family history and how I contributed to it. For instance, this morning I woke up early to write this column and made myself coffee and cinnamon toast. I remember that my mother made us cinnamon toast by spreading some butter on bread, and sprinkling some cinnamon and sugar on top, and placing it in the lower oven (broiler).

As I watched television on Martin Luther King's birthday (January 15), I noticed an advertisement depicting a Black wife, a White husband, and their child. This advertisement follows a so-called controversial advertisement for Cheerios with a Black father, a White mother, and their child. I am of the age when we saw so few Blacks on television, and when we did, all activity in the house stopped to watch. We all watched Dianne Carroll play "Julia" and then there was "Good Times" with JJ, and then, of course, later "The Cosby Show" where we all discovered that there were families where Blacks were professionals.

Each year as January 15 rolls around, we are reminded that Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King, Jr. lived. He preached the word of God and helped the world to understand what love of fellow man was about, and then he died, leaving the work of spreading equality to the rest of us.

Thirteen sailors aboard a Norfolk-based destroyer are being kicked out of the service for illegal drug use.
The Navy said Thursday 12 sailors assigned to the USS Mahan received non-judicial punishment in connection with the use of synthetic marijuana commonly sold as "Spice." One sailor was punished for the use of hallucinogenic mushrooms.
The 13 sailors range in rank from E-1 to E-5. They will also face punishments ranging from a reduction in rank and forfeiture of pay. They have been reassigned pending discharge.
Rear Adm. David M. Thomas Jr. said in a statement that sailors who use drugs get no second chance in the Navy. The Navy has banned its personnel from entering stores that sell the synthetic marijuana.
The Mahan is home-ported at Naval Station Norfolk.

The Republican-controlled Joint Committee on Finance voted 12 to four to require the agency to sell $20 million of land in 2004 and $20 million of land again in 2005.
The money would go into the state's budget stabilization fund. Any sales would be subject to committee approval.
Conservation groups are critical of the proposal, saying it's a mistake to give up some of the state's protected lands to balance the budget.
The committee also voted to reduce the state's credit limit for buying land.

Although I am certified physician I am once more studying for exams in an effort to further my career and improve my practice. Here are se thoughts on studying for exams.
Every student faces exam stress. what we need to learn is how to tackle this stress and live life king size!
In the 21st century, it is rather unfortunate that the society judges people by the level of education they have acquired. It is thus somewhat important to get good grades in your education while also learning as much as you can.
SSC Results are the most awaited results by the students in india. Students expect to score over 84% also expect to get admission in good colleges. But the less availability is a big worry for students.
An argumentative essay on the importance placed on exams in our education system.
Life is a continual learning curve,. We may think after studying at school for years, and then going on to University we know it all, but our whole life will be rich with experiences, and we can learn from them, and become so much wiser.

Society has expected people to fulfill its own demands without considering ones potential and area of interest. Students suffer the most in such societies where parents, friends,peer , neighbors everyone is expecting the most unexpected part of you.
The government in the UK has proposed a reform in the way A levels are studied which could be coming very soon.
Exams teach us lot of things and give training to various things like punctuality, writing skills, timing sense, expressing our thoughts and opinions and so on. Without exam it is very hard to find out the real knowledge of an individual student...
Our life, every time it seem like a little puzzle . we hide from it and back again we start to play with that puzzle .Now this is a story of a motor city where people got less time to talk but a lot time to blame the sky , world, system, love, you or even themselves ..
The key success factor in writing a term paper is in the preparation besides demonstrating a deep insight into the subject matter. Papers which are well written typically have gone through hours of research and organization before even a single word is written.
It happens to everyone when the Ogre, the exams frighten us and laughs at us.... Its very squeaky and loud... Nobody is allowed to elude it. The horrendous Exam!!

PHP blacklist engine ready to work
August 4, 2012 in php scripts
As i have written here http://blog.evilcoder.net/php-ip-blacklist-script/ i have created that ip blacklist engine .
Today i have finished with API and all the stuff and now this engine can give some results.
Of course i couldn't stay and take each ip from my long spam list to add it as blacklisted so i have modified my wp blog so i can have a nice button to click-and-report
Here it is a small part of the code .
How i did it ?
From line 458 to 471 i have changed the code with my own so
if ( $this->user_can ) { if ( !empty( $comment->comment_author_email ) ) { comment_author_email_link(); echo '
'; } echo ''; comment_author_IP(); echo ''; }
WIll be :
if ( $this->user_can ) { if ( !empty( $comment->comment_author_email ) ) { comment_author_email_link(); echo '
'; } echo ''; }
Watch out that [API KEY] needs to be replaced with a valid key obtained from http://dev.phpize.net/.
When everything is properly set blog admin can submit spam IP addreses directly in our database.
Please reply is other info are needed.

I know. Most of you thought I was crazy last week when I predicted a Vikings 41-10 victory over the Dallas Cowboys. You may have been right, but after the Vikings 31 point win over the Cowboys last Sunday, you have to at least acknowledge that it was a pretty solid guess!! I will happily make my prediction for this week's Vikings/Saints NFC Championship game. But first, consider reading my thoughts on where the Minnesota Twins are as we head into the end of January.
What would you do? Map it out.
Map it out, but also don't forget to include your Vikings prediction as well. Can the Vikings get to their first Super Bowl since before I was alive? First, a few thoughts.
Last week, I thought that Percy Harvin would be the key. A quick hitting passing scheme seemed to make sense. Instead, the offensive line performed very well and gave Brett Favre plenty of time to find Sidney Rice for three touchdowns. The defense was excellent and in the face of Tony Romo the whole game. Who would have thought at the beginning of the season that Ray Edwards' value to the Vikings would be so high and so important? That will be the key again. The defensive line, linebackers or whoever else they send will need to keep Drew Brees running around, make him uncomfortable. If they can consistently get pressure on Brees, I think the Vikings have a chance. They also need to get the combination of Adrian Peterson and Chester Taylor no fewer than 25 combined rushes. 30 would be even better, and that's solely for time of possession. I really think this is the game that Peterson busts out and shows just how good he is capable of being again.
With that little bit, it's time for my prediction. Earlier in the week, I told people that I thought the Vikings would win 104-98. I've backed off from that saying that it'll probably be a 10-6 defensive grudge match. But obviously it will (most likely) be somewhere in between. Therefore, my prediction is:
Saints 19, Vikings 27.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) - Fire officials say an elderly woman died and two others were critically injured when a Jacksonville house caught fire.
Jacksonville Fire and Rescue spokesman Tom Francis says firefighters found a woman in her 90s alive in the back of the burning house Tuesday evening. Another woman was injured as she ran for help. Officials say the dead woman was in her 70s. Her body was found in a carport.
The older woman was taken to Shands Jacksonville in critical condition. Francis says the other woman may be taken to a burn center in Gainesville. Authorities did not release the victims names.
The Florida Times Union (http://bit.ly/ROEKcm ) reports it took about 20 minutes to put out the fire at the one story brick house.
An investigation continues.

What City Manager Tom Higgins has said in a letter to Fort Worth employees should come as a surprise to no one: Program cuts, resource reductions and some layoffs are likely in the next annual city budget.Higgins is scheduled to present that budget to the City Council on Aug. 13."Our economy is recovering and we are on the right track, but this is the year that we need to right-size our spending and ensure we are living within our long-term means," Higgins wrote in the letter.That's the sort of thing good managers do for their employees when they know bad news is coming: Let them know as soon as possible, be as honest as you can, make sure they're in the loop because their lives are affected.The budget problems the city will face next year are long-term issues. The council has recognized them and talked about them each year for several years. Population growth and the demand for city services are growing fast, but annual revenue, while growing, isn't keeping pace. On top of that, the council and city staff have recognized the need for additional capital spending for basic infrastructure upkeep and expansion. They have shifted part of the tax rate that had been devoted to operations and are using it instead to pay for infrastructure needs.To keep up with operating expenses, recent budgets have drawn from "fund balance," basically savings built up in previous years. But that's not a good long-term strategy — eventually the savings account runs dry."We can't maintain this solution forever," former Chief Financial Officer Horatio Porter told the council almost a year ago. He said the city staff needed to spend time examining each department "to try to find ways to reduce the cost structure for the organization" and to "eliminate inefficiencies."That was the right strategy then, and it still is. It is the one Higgins is emphasizing now.In his letter to employees, he wrote, "The goal is to make sustainable changes to our budget to allow us to invest in the city's infrastructure, the right services and in our employees going forward. Accomplishing this will involve some hard decisions."The council will start finalizing those decisions Aug. 13.

Photos: PCs for the poor
Summary: A look at a few possibilities for bringing an inexpensive computer to the developing world.
2 of 6Image
The Negroponte machine
Several partners, including Advanced Micro Devices and Red Hat, have lined up behind this $100 machine from Nicholas Negroponte and the MIT Media Center. But to hit that low price, the machine's makers have to leave out all but the basics. The unit comes with only a 500MHz processor and 500MB of local storage (in the form of flash memory--the laptops won't include drives). And the units don't sport mainstream applications.
The thin client
Because they rely on a server to store and process data, and thus don't need fast processors or a hard drive, thin clients can be produced for about $100, including a used monitor. The downside is that if the server dies, so do all the machines that are connected to it.
The SUV PC
At the Computer Electronics Show in January, Intel unveiled a concept "community computer" for emerging countries. The "SUV PC"-style machine is made to tolerate hot and dusty conditions. Pricing for this type of unit can be prohibitive though.

Besides cold temperatures this winter, you can also expect winter illnesses. There haven't been any outbreaks yet, and doctors hope to keep it that way by helping patients prepare.
Coughing, sneezing, and the sniffles, all signs of the season with winter illnesses upon us. But it's not cold temperatures that make us sick, instead the cold weather drives us indoors.
"But in the winter time people are cooped up and have more chance of spreading germs," said Dr. Laura Ricciardi of Charlottesville Family Medicine.
There are preventative measures though.
"Healthy eating, healthy exercise, lifestyle changes, not smoking.and hand washing is extremely important," said Ricciardi.
Another tip, get a flu shot, if you haven't already done so it's not too late.
Doctors say the advice is especially important for those most at risk.
"The most susceptible are the very young, the very old, the people with weakened immune systems and chronic medical conditions," said Ricciardi.
But if you should get sick, how long should you wait before seeing the doctor.
"Sick for more than a week, it's probably time to call the doctor if signs of a flu, really high fever," said Ricciardi.
Dr. Ricciardi also says that you can help others not get sick by staying home.
"Staying home, not running errands, staying home from work if your able, staying home from school," said Ricciardi.
Doctors also say that you shouldn't give children or teenagers aspirin as it can be harmful.

It may still be the pre-season, but the banter regarding MotoGP on Twitter is certainly getting us ready for the start of the 2012 MotoGP Championship. Sending out a simple infographic this morning with the message, "this picture says it all," HRC's official Twitter account posted some interesting statistics that compared Repsol Honda rider Casey Stoner to Ducati Corse's Valentino Rossi.
Breaking down Stoner's win percentage over the past five years, the results of course paint an interesting picture. Of course the image "didn't say it all" as the reaction on Twitter is about what you'd expect from a world widely divided by international boundaries. This of course lead to the image's immediate removal, but alas nothing truly dies in the digital age.
In case you aren't already aware, Valentino Rossi is a nine-time World Champion, and also happens to be the favorite son the of MotoGP Championship. Casey Stoner on the other hand…well, the Australian has at best a tumultuous relationship with the public. Naturally, backlash ensued, and HRC finally removed the graphic from its Twitter account.
Asserting that it was all in good fun and simply pointing out some statistics about the last five years, HRC surely was trying to bolster Stoner's record, and remove the Repsol Honda rider from the "Most Underrated" list in MotoGP — a hard thing to do, even on the heels of a World Championship.

Driver captured after police chase
Published On: Mar 15 2013 05:50:06 PM CDT

Updated On: Mar 15 2013 05:58:08 PM CDT
A driver led police on a lengthy chase after an officer tried to pull him over.
Houston police said an officer tried to stop the driver on Westheimer near Shepherd on suspicion of a traffic violation on Friday afternoon, but he refused.
Officers said the driver sped down several city streets before getting on the freeways. He stopped at an apartment complex in the 5300 block of Coke, near the intersection of Clinton and Lockwood.
The driver tried to run on foot, but officers tackled him and took him into custody.
The man, who has not been identified, will likely be charged with evading arrest.
Police have not said why the driver refused to stop initially.

Half-Life 3 seemingly confirmed after Valve trademarks name in Europe
Last week, most of the tech and gaming world expected two things to happen. First, we thought that the Steam Box would be unveiled, and it was for the most part. The other big announcement we expected from Valve was an unveiling of Half-Life 3, but unfortunately all we got was a Steam-based operating system and a funky but cool looking controller.
Today, a recent trademark filing was made public that all but confirms the existence of Half-Life 3. On September 29, Valve filled to trademark the name Half-Life 3 in Europe. While the filing of a trademark is nothing new, this could signify that Valve is gearing up for a mass marketing campaign for the third installment in the Half-Life series. Alternatively, this could be another prank by Gabe Newell to troll the Half-Life conspiracy theorists. I will leave it up to our readers to take it as they wish.
Battlefield 4 makes better use of 8 threaded CPUs, uses more GPU too
Our Tweakipedia test bed is getting a workout tonight, benching (and playing of course) Battlefield 4. As you can see from the screenshot below, our Core i7 4770K is being used at 61%, and ranges up to around 70-75% at times, depending on what is going on.
As for our NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 SLI setup, it is pretty much maxing it out with around 90% average utilization per GPU at 2560x1440 on our ASUS PB278Q monitor. We're going to do some more testing on Battlefield 4, where we'll test out some results at 7860x1440, which should really stress this system out.
We should have a look at the Battlefield 4 performance in an article in the next day or so, so stay tuned, folks! Oh BTW, it's pretty awesome so far! It does feel more "consoley" in the game itself, but the menus and field of view, etc are all improved. You can crank it right up to 120 degrees, which is quite the surprise from DICE.
PS4's Killzone: Shadow Fall will be a 50GB download
Sony UK's Fergal Gara when talking to Eurogamer had something interesting to say: that Killzone: Shadow Fall is going to be close to 50GB when it becomes available. Yes, 50 gigabytes.
Gara was talking about the "play while you download!" feature when he said: "The Play as you Download functionality, for example, means you don't need the whole file before you go. This is a little bit counterbalanced by the fact the files themselves are getting bloody big. Killzone: Shadow Fall is an uber file - I think it's cracking on for 50GB. It looks it, too, when you see it."
The PS4 has a built-in 500GB HDD, so you won't run out of room too quickly, but if all games are 30-50GB, then that is going to fill up rather fast. For people like myself, stuck in backwards Australia with our Internet access that is quite slow, it's going to hurt, a lot.
GTA Online launches tomorrow, prepare for packed servers
The next 24 hours is the best time to be a gamer in the existence of the human race, with both the Battlefield 4 Beta and GTA Online launching in the same 24 hour period.
GTA Online launches at 7am Eastern, and is free for anyone who already owns Grand Theft Auto V. Rockstar has provided some guidelines for GTA Online, so that players are ready for some fun. The developer isn't exactly sure when GTA Online will launch, but it should be early tomorrow morning:
Access to Grand Theft Auto Online is free with your copy of Grand Theft Auto V. On October 1st there will be a small downloadable Title Update released on PlayStation Network and Xbox LIVE. Upon installation of that Title Update, direct access to begin GTA Online will be unlocked in your GTAV game menu. You will be able to jump right into GTA Online via the 4th (bottom) slot in your GTAV character wheel. We've received many questions asking for a specific confirmation of what exact time GTA Online will be available but of course this is contingent on both Title Updates becoming available on each console's network. As a general timeframe, we do expect the Title Update to become available on PSN and Xbox LIVE starting around 7AM ET tomorrow morning, and your best bet is to stay tuned throughout the day here at the Rockstar Newswire and by following us on Twitter and Facebook where we will be keeping everyone updated.
RumorTT: Grand Theft Auto V to hit PC hard drives on November 22
Since the first hints of GTA V hit the wires, the tech media world has been buzzing with rumors that the game may never launch on the PC platform. Unfortunately as time progressed, that rumor began to look more and more like reality. The PC gaming community even launched a Change.org petition based around bringing GTA V to PC, which gathered more than 500,000 signatures.
Fortunately, it appears that all of our worries and pleas to Rockstar may have been answered. The website gta5tv.com posted a report over the weekend that suggests the fastest selling game in history will infact be making a deput on the PC. The launch date is said to coincide with the Xbox One launch date of November 22, and apparently the information came straight from the source itself: Rockstar Games.
If you take a step back and look at some recent rumors and leaks, it seems like a November launch is really going to happen. This is good news for PC gamers everywhere as the PC will be able to showcase the most expensive game ever made in a whole new light. GTA V will look amazing on the PC, and is said to feature 2K graphics and will run on DirectX 11.
Crytek's Ryse still runs at 1600x900, CEO calls it Full HD experience
We reported not long ago that Ryse was going to be running at 1600x900 and then upscaled to 1920x1080, which looks to now be fully confirmed by German developer, Crytek.
What is weirder, is that the studio seems fine with it, and so does CEO and President of Crytek, Cevat Yerli. Yerli has confirmed that Ryse renders at 1600x900, and upscales to 1080p. He specifically said on his Twitter account: "#Ryse there is not one single downgrade compared to E3, promised! Only UPGRADES in the final push towards finalling phase! Its FULL HD XP!"
It does get worse, as Yerli then tweets "#Ryse runs at 1600x900 for best perf&res, we apply our upscaler for AA, framebuffer native 1080p. SAME as E3 XboxOne! No change, No compromise!" Well, I'd consider a full 320 pixels wide and 180 pixels high missing, a huge compromise. Yerli believes this is "native 1080p" which scares me... as it is far from running at native res if there's upscalers involved.
Vanished, an experimental horror game that uses only audio
Horror games seem to be experimented with more than other genres, which is exciting, but Pixel Heart Studios' 'Vanished' seems like quite the idea. Vanished is an audio-only game, featuring no graphics, no images, and no walls - your imagination is where the scares take place.
The world of Vanished is "without light, with no memories of how you got there and no clues on why everything has disappeared." Vanished is free until October 1 for iOS devices, with the game using the iPhone's internal compass and accelerometer to recreate the player's movement.
Players hold their iPhone in the direction they want to 'travel' within the game, touching the screen to walk. If you're in danger in the game, you shake the iPhone to attack. All exploration within Vanished is done within audio cues, as players move, the world "rotates" and provides different kinds of sounds.

Before it was shutdown, LucasArts were working on Day of the Tentacle
One of my favorite games of all time, Day of the Tentacle, was nearly released as a remake by LucasArts before the studio was shut down. According to a Kotaku source, the remake was "80% done."
The source that was "close to the project" said that the Day of the Tentackle remake was to include updated art and cutscenes. The source also said that the DoTT remaster was a "dream project" for most employees, but it was never technically greenlit. So, unfortunately, even if it were finished, it might never have seen the light of day.
Now, Internet world, I request that a petition be made and it get thrown onto Kickstarter for crowdfunding to get it finished. Maybe LucasArts and Disney would reconsider, and release it to the world - as Day of the Tentacle has countless fans.
RumorTT: Pre-orders of Destiny might allow beta access
Destiny is inching closer to release, and now we have a huge tease: according to the official Destiny website, players can "pre-order Destiny at select retailers and receive admission to the Destiny Beta."
A Reddit user noticed the text, which has now been erased from the Destiny website, but still appears in Google's cache. Another post on Reddit pointed to the pre-order message appearing only on the UK and Canadian versions of the site. No official retailers are listing Destiny anywhere, even the big boys like Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, Target and Walmart in the U.S. don't mention Destiny pre-orders just yet.
DICE releases list of maps and modes for Battlefield 4 release
DICE has just unveiled what multiplayer maps and game modes will be playable on day one for Battlefield 4. The list of maps is quite impressive and includes the impressive looking Zavod 311 map that is set inside a Cold War era Soviet tank factory. The factory has been abandoned for decades and is now being reclaimed by nature.
Returning gameplay modes include: Conquest, Team Deathmatch, Rush, Squad Deathmatch, and Domination. Two additional modes will be launched on day one as well, which includes Obliteration and Defuse. The first will involve planting a bomb to blow up key targets within the map, while defuse is only a ten person game. Each team of five players will be tasked with eliminating the other team. Each player has a single life and no respawns.

Shinji Kagawa believes a positive result for Manchester United in Tuesday's away leg against Olympiacos would go a long way towards securing a place in the Champions League quarter-finals.
Kagawa is hoping to return to make his sixth appearance in Europe this season, having not featured for the Reds at all since the Capital One Cup semi-final second leg against Sunderland on 22 January.
The Japanese playmaker is keen for United to go further in the Champions League than in his first season, when Real Madrid ended the Reds' hopes at the last 16 stage.
But he expects a tough encounter at the Karaiskakis Stadium, where Olympiacos have lost just once in 19 home games this season in all competitions – that solitary defeat was at the hands of runaway Group C winners Paris Saint-Germain.
"When you get to this stage in the competition you can't afford any slip-ups or you're out," Kagawa told ManUtd.com. "The away leg is very important – we need to get a good result there. We have a lot of experienced players in our squad who will hopefully help us to achieve that.
"Our Champions League campaign ended at the last 16 stage last season, so we want to go further this time.
"Olympiacos are a good team and there are no easy games in this competition – we all know that. So we have to prepare as well as we can."

Turkish FM calls for Ukraine's territorial integrity
Wednesday, March 12, 2014
NEW YORK - Ukraine's current government and the next government to come to power should represent all sides in the country, says Turkish foreign minister Tuesday.
Ahmet Davutoglu met U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and President of the U.N. General Assembly in New York after attending the Caribbean CARICOM summit held in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Tuesday.
Davutoglu said Turkey displays the same attitude as its allies regarding Ukraine's territorial integrity.
The Parliament of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the Sevastopol City Council voted to adopt a declaration of independence from Ukraine during an extraordinary session on Tuesday.
"Every political formula should be taken into consideration to secure Ukraine's territorial integrity and this principle should not be violated," he said.
Davutoglu also expressed support for Crimean Tatars. "Turkey always stands by Crimean Tatars and will continue to support them," he added.
Talks also touched on the 40-year-old Cyprus dispute between the Turkish and Greek Cypriots and Syria crisis.
Turkish Cypriot and Greek Cypriot negotiators made simultaneous visits to the Turkish capital Ankara and Greek capital of Athens to end the dispute in February.
Davutoglu said "this new process" has been supported both by Turkey, Greece and the international community.
"We hope we will reach a solution this time," he said.
The island has been divided into Greek and Turkish sides since a Greek Cypriot coup was followed by a Turkish peace mission to aid Turkish Cypriots in the north in 1974.
The Greek Cypriot administration is a member of the European Union and recognized by all internationally, except Turkey.
The minister also expressed hope that the humanitarian crisis in Syria would not be overshadowed by the crisis in Ukraine.

Hip Hop World Responds To DJ Rashad's Passing
Chance The Rapper, 2 Chainz, Jay Electronica, Danny Brown and others in Hip Hop react to DJ Rashad's Death.
Chicago footwork dance music scene pioneer DJ Rashad reportedly passed away yesterday of a feared drug overdose and since his death, the urban music community has reacted to his passing.
"Music lost a legend today," Chicago native Chance The Rapper said. "And he was my friend. Love you DJ Rashad. RIP."
2 Chainz, Danny Brown, Jay Electronica, A-Trak, Lee Bannon, Jeremiah Jae and Chicago's Sasha Go Hard, among others have offered their condolences via social media. The 35-year-old DJ was found dead in his apartment with narcotics and other drug paraphernalia found approximate to his body. An autopsy was scheduled for Sunday, however the Cook County Medical Examiner's Office declined to comment further about it Sunday morning.
"It's just a tragic loss of a great musical genius," said longtime friend, DJ Spinn, who was scheduled to appear Saturday night with Rashad in Detroit (via a report from the Associated Press).
Considered a pioneer of house music and footwork (also known as "Juke"), DJ Rashad was heavily inspirational to a genre that Rolling Stone described as a "frenzied and hypnotic style of dance music that features heart-racing BPMs and, often, chopped-up loops of popular rap, R&B and pop vocals." He released his fifth album, Double Cup, last year.
