Research interests
- My research interests include international mechanisms for responding to global climate change, the possibilities for order in the international political system, the nature of sovereignty and the scope of international law in constructing governmental capacities
- I am also engaged in research concerning learning related topics, including off-campus and online learning, and have a long-standing interest in the role of pedagogy and student-centred curriculum
- In recent years I have become interested in cross-disciplinary research activities, engaging in work that overlaps with Public Relations, Communications and Cultural Studies. This work focuses on diverse topics including interpersonal relations and professional relationship dynamics, and theatre as a source of social and political reform.
Current research projects
- Working with Dr. Stuart Levy towards the completion of The End of Democracy and Progress: water, order and climate change

Windows 7
New to this place, but need help with computer...
Long story short, Advantech ARK-3390-1S6A1E computer used for a KIOSK had a boot issue, missing or corrupt NTFS.SYS file.
Fixed that by booting to command prompt copying file from Windows XP Disk. After restart, computer froze at Windows XP splash screen.
Booted to Windows XP disc, effected repair. Same results. Ran CHKDSK from Windows XP Disc and now the computer boots to "Windows Product Activation" dialog box. "This copy of windows must be activated with Microsoft before you can log on. Please ask a computer administrator to activate Windows on this computer" I click OK, "Windows XP Logging off..." screen and then back to same activation dialog. Click OK, same results over and over again.
I tried booting to "Safe Mode" and get the same results. No matter what I try, I cannot get past the dialog box regardless of safe mode options or regular boot.
I can use a Bart's PE boot disc if necessary to get in an edit any files I need to.
Any suggestions for help would be greatly appreciated.

Windows XP, Sorry, I thought I mentioned that.
- - - Updated - - -
Also, I am using SLACKO or Puppy to boot if necessary.
Don't use xp instead use windows 7.
gwendes (28th April 2014)
reinstall xp.
gwendes (28th April 2014), mac_shinobi (26th April 2014)
eRD commander boot disk and system restore ? To an earlier time (if it's enabled)
Windows XP is Dead
Long live Windows 7!
gwendes (28th April 2014), speckytecky (25th April 2014)
I'll third that. Interesting to see the general sentiment of the replies is Windows 7 no mention of the horrid Windows 8!
I'm a one mandate band in my school with some 200 client devices - no budget for replacement kit so recently I've spent a heap of time upgrading memory and OS from XP to Windows 7. Delighted to say XP is now history in our school.
8.11 isn't too bad, but windows 8.12/windows 8.2/windows 9 should be better with the new start menu coming!
Come on guys, that isn't very helpful of you all, is it - not in the spirit of edugeek, is it? @klthmpsn Why are you using XP?
This computer was setup to work with a KIOSK a few years back. The manufacturer of the KIOSK as well as the manufacturer of software solution (customized database) have since gone out of business. Since both are gone, if I cannot get this computer recovered, the owner will have to buy new KIOSK (outdoor kiosk, minimum $12,000) and new software solution (minimum $10,000). Why XP, trying to save some coin for my customer.
Thank you for your time.
What does the kisok machine do - does it just present a set of information menus or something? How big is the screen?
Depending on how the kiosk software works, you could try and copy the software off on to a working Windows XP (or Windows 7 / 8 might be a better option) machine - copy the actual executable from the harddrive of the current kiosk machine.

So, um…I'm running a marathon tomorrow. Did I forget to mention that?
The reason why, is that I missed my long run last weekend and I have since fallen out of confidence and fear failure tomorrow.
The two weeks since my last long run (I did 25 between two days that weekend) I've only run a total of 17 miles, which is about half of what I should have run during that time frame.
Now…part of me thinks this is soooo not a big deal. When I look at the big runs of 2012, I see a lot of that. I only ran 4 miles the week before my 25K in March. I only ran 5.5 the week before my 13.1 in April and I only ran 29 in the full two weeks before my marathon in May. I tend to cut it very low during my taper weeks.
But I've NEVER missed a weekend long run before. Not in this entire year aside from the 4 weekends I was on bedrest before my miscarriage. Over the ENTIRE YEAR this past weekend is the ONLY non-medical induced long-run free weekend! As a matter of fact, I've done back-to-back long runs most weekends starting in June. So going one whole weekend without a long run before my marathon?
I do have a time goal tomorrow, and that's rare. I usually just want to "Finish Happy" as I've been preaching for a year now. But tomorrow I'm going in wanting to come in around 5 hours. And I'm even running with a friend who is pacing a few of us at that speed. But my confidence? GONE.
It's tough because this is not an exact science. You do your best, but some people train perfectly and fail come race day. Some train imperfectly and succeed. And none of those people will have the same race day experience even after the same training.
Logically? I know I'll finish and I'm pretty sure I'll meet my goal as long as I don't stop (that always screws me over) and I accept I might not finish "happy". But emotionally? I'm wondering if I should even start.
And this is hard because – with me – 80% of distance running is mental. I have to be on and confident because I tend to hit at least one MAJOR dark spot during any big race. And if I'm able to overcome that, it's because I had confidence.
So…I'm psyching myself up now. I CAN DO THIS. Even if I crapped out the last two weeks, I ran over 300 miles the 8 weeks before that. I ran a 50K 3 weeks ago. I CAN DO THIS. And I can do it in under 5 hours. TOTALLY. And I'm going to look cute while I'm doing it! Which is really the source of half of my confidence. It's dumb, but if I don't like my running outfit? I don't run as well.
So I have the outfit! The training (mostly)! The strength! The stamina! The confidence! I'm ready to knock this out of the park!

In 1980, eight attorneys established the business law firm of Dean, Mead, Egerton, Bloodworth, Capouano & Bozarth, P.A. The founders were Stephen T. Dean, Robert W. Mead, Jr., Charles H. Egerton, Darryl M. Bloodworth, Albert D. Capouano, Stephen J. Bozarth, Lauren Y. Detzel and Lynn J. Hinson. With the exception of Mr. Dean, who passed away in August 2000, the founding partners remain active leaders in the firm today.
In 1987, Dean Mead attorney Michael D. Minton returned to his hometown of Fort Pierce to open an office in what is known as Florida's Treasure Coast region. The office has expanded to represent a diverse client base from Palm Beach County to Indian River County and conducts business under the name Dean, Mead, Minton & Zwemer.
In 1989, Dean Mead opened its initial office in Brevard County, as R. Mason Blake and other firm attorneys began intensive work on the new town of Viera. This was followed by the establishment of Dean Mead's Merritt Island office in 1992. In 2003, those offices were combined into one location in Viera, where the firm conducts business under the name Dean Mead.
Dean Mead opened an office in Gainesville on January 1, 2011 by joining forces with Mr. Jack Bovay, a tax, corporate and estate planning attorney. Operating under the name Dean, Mead & Bovay, Mr. Bovay formally joined our firm to serve as the Managing Shareholder of the Gainesville office. Mr. Bovay is joined by Mr. Robert Griscti who has practiced for more than 30 years in corporate regulatory compliance, government investigations, white collar law, professional licensing and discipline, and related civil and criminal litigation and appeals. In addition, Jennifer Lester joined the Gainesville office last year. She is Board Certified in Civil Trial Law by The Florida Bar Board of Legal Specialization. Her practice involves commercial litigation, personal injury, wrongful death and fiduciary proceedings.
Dean Mead's Tallahassee office opened on December 1, 2013 marking the firm's fifth office in Florida. The Tallahassee office is home to four attorneys including Peter Dunbar, Martha Edenfield, John Wharton, and Ashley Gault. The new Tallahassee-based Government Relations, Lobbying and & Administrative Law team advises businesses and public sector clients on a wide range of services including: Administrative Law, Agri-business Regulation and Permitting, Commercial Litigation, Government Regulations and Legislative Advocacy, Land Use and Environmental Law, Professional Licensure Defense, Real Property and Condominium Law, Utility Law and Regulation, and Water Resources, Permitting and Regulation. Expanding our statewide footprint to Tallahassee was the key to Dean Mead's 2014 strategic growth plan. The benefit to our clients is a dedicated team of attorneys who offer a unique understanding of government policy and access to the key decision-makers.
Dean Mead has provided legal representation to clients throughout Florida for 34 years. Since its inception, the firm has over 50 lawyers and is now well known under our abbreviated name, Dean Mead.

Brixton Brood Hat - Love this hat!
Brian Limoges
Member since
I have this hat in the Gray Herringbone. I literally get compliments on it every single time I wear it. It is an updated fit of the traditional "newsie" style hat in that it fits a little bigger and baggier (and more comfortable in my opinion)and has a little more coverage. The inside of this hat is silk lined and it is extremely comfortable. I will definitely be picking up this hat in different colorways!

Lore in the Law: A Short Case for the Colorful Brief
By Adam Johnson
The written word is not a peculiarity of the law, but it is an obsession. Being foremost in the habit of multiplying synonyms and compounding problems by the generation of their words, lawyers unsurprisingly have amassed vast bodies of literature on the topic of legal writing. Perhaps both by nature and necessity, the profession and the Academy are continually in pursuit of perfecting the craft. After all, it is by operation of the pen that justice is nurtured. If the sword were mightier, we might have whole libraries on steel. So it is not, for the pen's the thing. Read more...
Proper Preparation Prevents Poor Performance…At Trial.
By Brandon Schwartz
Contrary to popular belief, trials are not dead. While motion practice, summary adjudication, and alternative dispute resolution helped resolve countless cases settle short of trial, having the confidence and ability to try a case is an invaluable tool for litigators. Moreover, preparing your client's case from commencement as if it were going to trial will most likely put your case in a posture to obtain the best possible settlement for your client if the matter (likely) happens to be resolved short of trial. Read more...
By Christine M. Callahan
Before you can prepare for your first mediation, you have to understand what mediation is and how it works. Petitioners in all civil cases in Minnesota are required to initiate a settlement conference. General Rule of Practice 114 requires all civil cases to submit to some form of Alternative Dispute Resolution process (ADR) before they appear in court.i There are many different types of ADR available to help parties settle their disputes before having the court resolve them. Mediation is likely the most popular of the ADR choices because it allows parties to maintain some control over the outcome of their dispute resolution. Read more...
On January 1, 2014, The Affordable Care Act Goes Live. Are Your Clients Ready?
By Michael Joliat
The Patient Protection And Affordable Care Act is one of the most complex pieces of legislation ever devised. In 2014 – when the bulk of its provisions become effective – the Affordable Care Act will establish a massive wealth shifting apparatus that will affect every individual and employer in America. Though it will affect all employers to some extent, about one million businesses nationwide will face the brunt of the Affordable Care Act. Thousands of these businesses call the Twin Cities home.

The Best Benching Tutorial on the Web
Diesel Crew's Smitty Breaks Down the Basics of a Bigger Bench.
Benching is a religion among lifters. Every Monday, the pec-worshipping throngs with protracted shoulders make a pilgrimage to the Church of Upper Body Day to train what they know looks best in their bathroom-mirror cameraphone pics.
And while many experts would like benching to be a little less fashionable, I'm not here to knock the bench. The fact is, benching is awesome. And regardless of what any functionality guru tells you, it's still a stellar developer of upper-body power.
But a surplus of benching can be dangerous, so if you're going to do it, do it right. That's where Smitty from Diesel Crew comes in. In this video, he absolutely nails everything you need to know about pressing serious weight.
So check it out, leave your thoughts in the comments, and remember Smitty's words: "The bench is a full-body lift. If your whole body's not sore coming off the bench, you're not doing it right."

September 9, 2014
Dear District 15 Community,
Are you concerned about your property taxes? You should be.
District 15 is heading down the slippery slope of deficit spending, which ultimately leads to higher taxes.
The budget for this year authorizes a $4.0 million deficit and is on the agenda for approval by the Board this Wednesday, September 10th, at 7pm.
Putting this in perspective… to balance the budget would require only a 1.5% reduction in the District's $151 million expenditures budget. A reduction of this size would continue to fund the $1.8 million for additional capital improvement projects approved by the Board in March from our relatively small fund balance surplus.
A balanced budget can easily be accomplished through some combination of finding real savings, deferring discretionary spending, and/or adjusting the forecast if estimates are overly conservative.
- In Person. A public comment period is on the agenda at each Board Meeting before the Board takes action. Board meetings are normally held at Walter R. Sundling Junior High School (Google Map).
- Email. Board Member email addresses are listed at District 15 School Board. And/or you can provide feedback to Superintendent Scott Thompson at firstname.lastname@example.com or to me by visiting my contact page.
As you may recall, the severe structural deficit we were facing in District 15 was corrected over two years ago through a collaborative effort between the board, administration, employee groups and the community.
Unfortunately that success appears to be slipping away. Continue reading District 15 Deficit Spending

Elena A. Hartgering
Elena A. Hartgering, Vermont College Class of 1992, died September 12, 2006. Elena A. Hartgering, 66, of Clermont, Fla., died September 12, 2006. The daughter of John and Vincenza [Polo] Albani she was born in Hartford on June 2, 1940 and lived in Manchester most of her adult life. Elena received her BA from Vermont College of Norwich University, and an MA and Sixth Year Certificate summa cum laude from St. Joseph College. Before her retirement she was a licensed professional counselor and a nationally-certified counselor with a private practice. She was on the chaplaincy staff at Hartford Hospital and an ordained minister.
She is survived by her husband, John J. Hartgering; three children and their spouses: Dianne and Autry Chapman, John and Lisa Shackett, and Andrew and Cheryl Shackett; her niece Mary Ganci; a sister and her husband, Connie and Henry Breault; and five beloved grandchildren, Reina, Holly, Lindsay, Annabel and Garrett.
Susan Martel
Susan Martel, 46, passed away at her home Aug. 28, 2004, after a brief but courageous battle with cancer, with her loving husband and son at her side. She had a zest for life and a very compassionate heart.
She chose to be a nurse at the urging of her father. She earned her LPN at New Hampshire Vocational Technical College, her BSN at Norwich, and her MSN at UVM in 1996. She was very proud of all of her accomplishments.
In the 25 years of her dedicated career, she found nursing to be her true calling. Susan worked her way from a floor nurse at the Coos County Nursing Home in Berlin, N.H., to be the Administrative Director of Nursing Operations at Fletcher Allen Health Care. Along the way she touched the lives of countless people, including patients, nurses, doctors, administrators, and support staff. Susan was recently described by a colleague as a "closer", as in a baseball game, the hitter who can be counted on to bring home that winning run.
Anyone who knew her, be it for 20 minutes or for 20 years, loved her forever. Her professional career was her passion for so long, but the happiest moment for her was becoming a mother. Bradley is a precious gift that was sent to us from God. She loved him so much and she will be in his heart forever. Susan enjoyed traveling with her husband. He would say "we're going on vacation", and her answer would be "what do I pack?" She traveled extensively to the Caribbean, the Grand Canyon, Las Vegas, Florida, Scandinavia, Russia, Estonia, Germany and her favorite place, Alaska. She marveled at the beauty and the openness. She especially enjoyed the helicopter ride which landed on a glacier and she was the first one to taste the glacier water. She loved seeing and learning about people.
She was born in Berlin, June 7, 1958, the daughter of Rene and Jacqueline (Coulombe) Ramsey. Susan is survived by Linwood (Woody), her husband of 15 years; and their son Bradley; her mother Jacqueline Ramsey of Berlin; her brothers Robert, Francis, and Russell and their wives Sylvia, Roseann, and Diane of Berlin, her brother Charles and his wife Lilly of Essex Junction, her brother Michael and his fiance Bobbi of Huntington; nieces Sara, Lori, Coleen, Katherine and Sarah; nephews Kevin and Allan, who are both currently serving their country in the military efforts in Iraq, and nephews Todd, Eric, Scott, and Daniel. Susan is also survived by her great-niece, Alison. She was predeceased by her father Rene Ramsey in November 1997.
Strong of heart and soft of hand, Susan Martel was a shining example in so many ways, as a wife, mother, daughter, nurse, and friend.

Strange lengthy bootup (startup) time for system that I have
Hello everyone! Hope you Guys and Gals can help me out here.
See my specs below under computer specs.
It's not like my start up takes 10 minutes or anything drastic, (More like 3.5 minutes) but I have a work computer with a Core 2 duo and 4GB Ram that launches 15 programs at startup (not joking, literally) and it boots way quicker then mine. (1 minute) -No SSD-
Looking at event viewer, I get the following errors under startup:
"Service 'WMPNetworkSvc' did not start correctly because CoCreateInstance(CLSID_UPnPDeviceFinder) encountered error '0x80004005'. Verify that the UPnPHost service is running and that the UPnPHost component of Windows is installed properly."
"The Client Virtualization Handler service depends on the Application Virtualization Client service which failed to start because of the following error:
The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion."
"The Application Virtualization Client service failed to start due to the following error:
The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion."
"A timeout was reached (30000 milliseconds) while waiting for the Application Virtualization Client service to connect."
I Checked the services it mentions, they are started correctly.
I have attached a screenshot of my msconfig start up tab proving there is not a whole lot there.
Too many start up services maybe? (See Screenshots)
I have looked at the following to troubleshoot:
1.) Ran sfc /scannow -No integrity violations. Ran it twice.
2.) Defragged the hard drive -No effect
3.) Checked for Malware with Avast and Malwarebytes, as well as Windows defender.
4.) Logged into safemode and did not experience the issue. So I am thinking It is something software related, I just do not know what....Hoping someone can suggest something to narrow it down.
5.) In my antivirus software, I tried using the option for start services only after system services has been started. -No change-
6.) Checked hard drive for errors with Check disk. Nothing.
7.) Checked Western Digital Hard Drive with their tool and it says the drive is good on both a short and long test.
8.) Made sure Drivers were up to date from Asus and AMD-I have the latest chipset driver.
9.) I set some services to Automatic delayed start to see if that would help, it did mildly.
I just am confused why this is happening. With the specs I have, this system should def. start faster then it is. I had a customer built PC before this and it loaded quicker then this one with way less hardware.
I do want to state that once my computer is up and done loading performance is kinda fine. Games and such run great. Like Tomb Raider works great at max settings. Sometimes loading windows explorer or firefox takes what feels like a second longer. But it might just be my impatience. I just have to wait till it thinks before I start doing stuff.
Bios is up to date. No other users just me on the system.
|My System Specs

Establish a Clean boot as shown in Troubleshooting Steps for Windows 7.
Post back a screenshot of Disk Management - Post a Screen Capture Image so we can look over your disk config.
Run all rounds of Important and Optional Windows Updates with reboots, after enabling Automatically deliver drivers via Windows Update (Step 3)/
Run CCleaner and then Puran Defrag boot time defrag with full Disk Check (after enabling Intelligent Optimizer on Additional Operations tab) to clean and then organize the HD best.
If all of these fail including the other troubleshooting steps to go over your install thoroughly, then I'd try Gathering a Startup, Shutdown, Sleep, Hibernate, or Reboot Trace - Windows 7 Forums which always finds the definitive reason for these delays.
|My System Specs
|03 Aug 2013
Thanks a lot for your help gregrocker!
Turns out The reason for slow startup was due to the following:
-vmware player services
-windows media player sharing service
-AMD fuel service
-AMD external events utility
-mbamscheduler <-------------*Set to automatic delayed start*
*Note* Amd services are not required for me as I only use the driver and not there software.
Setting these services to manual solved my issue.
*I set mbamscheduler to automatic delayed start, as it updates malwarebytes and is not needed right away. But I left the shield service mbam service automatic so that it will protect me still on bootup.*
Vmware player has a whopping 4 services. I created a batch file to start these services and stop them after I am done with Vmware player.
Also see here for timeout issues:
I also attached the 2 batch files (Need to right click run as admin)
The batch files start the required services for vmware player and the other batch stops the services.
It also enables and disables their network adapters that it creates as well.
This way, you can run vmplayer when you want and only when you want so its not taking resources in the background.
*You will need to set all vmware services to manual.*
|My System Specs
|03 Aug 2013
I would imagine most of those could be turned off in msconfig>Startup or >Services after Hiding all MS Services as suggested.
I don't allow any AMD chipset or Display bloatware on my installs, as this isn't needed unless you overclock graphics. So you can uninstall those.
I don't know why mbam scheduler is running as it only appears in >Services when you need a reboot to delete malware. Do you have the Real-Time protection? Then I'd allow it to start as with your AV.
There is a batch file to turn off WMP Sharing Service when it plays up but I haven't seen it needed since beta so lost track of the link several years back.

Movement Lab - Manoj Srinivasan
We are interested in understanding the movement of things: humans, other animals, and machines.
Some central scientific questions are: Why do animals move the way they do? And how do they do it so well? We are interested in obtaining a simple and tractable, yet complete, theory of legged locomotion and sensorimotor control in humans and other animals -- a theory that will reliably predict how an animal will act in a novel situation (say, humans on the moon) and how the animal will respond to perturbations (say, stepping on a banana peel). We use a mixture of mathematics, modeling, computation, and experiments.
The Movement Lab is located within the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Ohio State University and is led by Manoj Srinivasan.
Please click on the links above or below to learn more about what we do.

| Time for the annual kick-off to holiday donation jars being stolen
|Showing 1-10 of 10 comments
| abhorrent1
What kind of dumb-ass leaves a jar with $1000 cash in it sitting around out in the open? Put it in the farking safe when you close for the night.
| ChipNASA
I'm going to go to the local shopping center and set up a table for a donation jar for the holidays for a local "poor" family with our photo on the front and see if anyone notices.
/$5 a months is a LOT!!!

| Fark_Guy_Rob
The thief stealing the money probably needs it more and will spend it more effectively than the rich board members running the charity drive....
| Optimus Primate
In Florida, one does not simply leave a jar of unattended monies visible behind glass after business hours. That is what the pillheads call "a freebie".
| Phins
I volunteer for an animal rescue group and we have had our donation jars stolen twice. Both times it was in the middle of the day, at adoption sites, with people around. It made the news both times and brought in a flood of donations, much much more than was in the jars.
Yes, it did occur to me that we should have the jars "stolen" more often and no we're not going to do that.

Many Kindergarteners Already on Road to Obesity, Study Finds
|Mon, 11-28-2011 - 8:47am
According to Health Day News:
Today's kindergarteners are heavier than kids brought up in the 1970s and 1980s and appear to be on the road to becoming overweight and obese in the years to come, a new study finds.
"It's not just kids who are already overweight getting more and more so, there is an entire shift. Even those who are normal weight are gaining weight," said lead study author Ashlesha Datar, senior economist at RAND Corp. in Santa Monica, Calif. READ MORE

6 high-tech ways to upgrade your barbecue from start to finish
If you're like us, you long to be a master grill chef. This summer, elevate the art of grillery from start to finish by taking advantage of the highest technology. No more rough estimates of when the meat is done, no more haphazard tossing of raw meats onto the flames, throwing caution to the wind and wondering when everything is done.
Grilling in the 21st century has evolved way beyond just holding meat over a fire with a forked stick. Once you have your high-tech grill in place, you'll want only the best gadgetry to precisely turn that raw animal flesh into grilled nirvana. We've found the right tools for the job, certain to turn even the most ham-handed backyard cook into a master outdoor grill chef extraordinaire.
Stage 1: Food Prep
The Problem: You want to use that family-fave marinade recipe, but don't feel like standing next to that London Broil all day, brushing on the sauce.
The Upgrade: Reveo MariVac Food Tumbler Marinade. This gives you maximum flavor penetration. In fact, 10 minutes in, this $200 thingamajig gives you more goodie inside the meat than 24 hours' worth of soaking in a bag. It does it by magically sealing up, removing all the air and letting that meat soak up mucho marinade. Your guests will wonder: How on earth did this master outdoor chef get that meat tasting like the pros do? That'll be our little secret.
Stage 2: Cooking Times
The Problem: You have various meats to cook, and doneness preferences of your guests vary wildly, and you want it all to be ready at the same time.
The Upgrade: Charcoal Bob Cookout Calculator. Don't just go out there and start cooking without a plan. Now you can execute your barbecue down to the second with Charcoal Bob, a website that calculates exactly how long to cook your beef, pork, or chicken. Enter the outside temperature on this cookout calculator; designate what type of grill you're using, whether it's covered or uncovered, and amount of heat you'll be applying; tell it what meats you're cooking and exactly when you'd like to eat, and this brilliant calculator gives you a timeline to follow. Print out the timeline, take your stopwatch to your grillside, and you can cook even the most complicated combinations of meats perfectly every time. The only downside we can see is reality: With a lot of grills, you're usually not able to choose exactly how much heat it's producing when you put on the meat.
Stage 3. Suiting Up
The Problem: You have to protect your clothes and self from nasty spills and splashes as you gleefully practice the art of barbecuing.
The Upgrade: Le Creuset Apron. You're going to need a chef's apron, but not just any will do. This is not your father's barbecue apron, no sir. Le Creuset figured out a clever way to keep grease, steam, and water away from those favorite $300 Armani khaki shorts — using that substance with which amateur cooks have been familiar for a few decades now: Teflon. You don't care about messing up your grilling outfit? Rest assured and be smug, secure in the fact that you're wearing a $40 Teflon chef's apron.
Stage 4. Perfecting the Sizzle
The Problem: When can you be sure it's time to stop grilling and start serving?
The Upgrade: CDN Thermometer. Now you're in gear. Flames are lapping all over the meat, the food is searing flawlessly, and the aroma is mouth-watering. You even have everything planned down to the second. But if you're like us, you can't quite tell exactly when meat is done just by feel. With a little sleight of hand, you can hold this BBQ Fork Thermometer in such a way that nobody sees its LED screen indicating the precise temperature of that meat you just pierced. This useful fork handles up to 8 pounds — you could use a fork anyway, so the thing might as well make itself useful. Its price is right, too, setting you back a mere $12.95.
Stage 5. Flipping Your Meat
The Problem: It's almost time for dinner, but you can't see what you're doing.
The Upgrade: Steven Raichlen Ultimate Luma Tongs. You've been at your grill for a while now, and what's that? It's starting to get dark? How are you going to tell how golden brown your chops have gotten? It's gadget-to-the-rescue with these Ultimate Luma Tongs, complete with a detachable halogen flashlight that will shed light on the subject, revealing to all your barbecued mastery as those delectable smoke-enveloped morsels become ready for removal from their fiery hell. Take the flashlight off, and these $20 tongs are dishwasher safe.
Stage 6. The Cleanup
The Problem: Hey, that grill got pretty messy.
The Upgrade: Motorized Grill Cleaning Brush. Success! All your minions are lying back, sated, bellies full of your braised masterpieces. After they've staggered home, wallowing in their gluttonous euphoria, it's left to you to clean up that blackened mess that's your grill. There's got to be an easier way than scrubbing, sacrificing valuable elbow grease on stubborn remnants of your charcoal broiling. Sure enough, there's a gadget for that: the Motorized Grill Cleaning Brush. Working like an electric toothbrush for your grill, its brass brushes spin at considerable RPM, taking care of the mess along with its built-in stainless steel scraper. It's like a steely street sweeper, turning that messy grill-cleaning task into a welcome gadgety encounter, well worth the $25 price of admission.

By John P. Desmond
While no central clearinghouse of robotics workforce development information exists, discussions with academics and economic development organizations present a picture that reflects the current trends in the generalized engineering workforce.
That picture shows that 15% of the current science and engineering workforce is eligible to retire now, and an additional 25% will be eligible within five years. Between 1998 and 2008, 1.9 million new jobs in science and engineering will have been created. But in that 10 years, only 198,000 engineering and science college graduates per year will have entered the workforce.
A Major Shortfall
"That is a two million person shortfall," notes George Blanks, director of K-12 engineering outreach for the Samuel Ginn College of Engineering at Auburn University in Alabama. (Data is also from the American Electronics Association report, "Losing the Competitive Advantage: The Challenge for Science and Technology in the United States.")
The number of undergraduate degrees in engineering in the U.S. has fallen in the last 20 years from 71,000 in 1981 to less than 56,000 in 2002. Current trends indicate serious workforce shortages in science and engineering lie ahead, a threat to U.S. prosperity and national security, according to a National Science Board report of August 2003. Other indicators of the problem include reduced student interest in science and engineering (S&E) studies and a projected growth in S&E occupations that is three times that of other occupations.
Unlike the U.S., emerging countries are producing more than their share of engineers. For example, China is graduating four times as many engineers as in the U.S. and the European Union graduates three times as many. In 2004, only 7% of the 868,000 undergraduate engineering degrees granted worldwide were earned in the U.S., putting the U.S. in 17th place.
Robotics and Computer Science
Steps are being taken at the college level to attract more students into engineering fields. Similar efforts are being made to reach the K-12 population, often in collaboration with private industry. For both groups, an emphasis on robotics is as a way to interest more students in engineering. Robotics requires the study of math and physics, and often exposures students to the engineering design process itself.
Villanova University has worked to include robotics into the computer science curriculum in an effort to attract more students. "Of all the engineering disciplines, it is computer science majors that get the most education in software engineering", says Frank Klassner, associated professor and executive director of the Center of Excellent in Enterprise Technology at Villanova. "The robotics industry is looking to the day when sets of robots will be required to work together. We will need a workforce with the necessary software engineering skills to pull that off."
Klassner continues, "But when it comes to robotics, sensors and actuators, it is a messy world from a computer science perspective. Students need some experience with robot platforms before they can apply their engineering skills. So the real challenge is getting some exposure for computer science students to robots," he says.
Villanova began adding robotics into the curriculum in 1999. Their approach was to revamp several courses to include robotics. In the operating system and computer optimization courses, students were given access to embedded programming problems, important in setting up and debugging robots, using the Lego Mindstorm platform. In the artificial intelligence area, students worked on building robots that interacted with their environment through sensors. "They have a background in probability and statistics courses, working with noisy data and detecting signals in such data," Klassner says.
Out of 20 students in a typical Villanova computer science graduating class, one or two may pursue graduate work in robotics. "The robotics industry is going to have to fight for the computer science majors," says Klassner.
Klassner gives the industry a mixed report card when it comes to helping students gain the necessary background to enter robotics. The outreach has been concentrated more on the Ph.D.-granting institutions, which graduate about half the computer science graduates each year. "The robotics industry needs to provide resources in the form of test beds and hardware at a discount for research and education purposes. And they need to be aware that although the faculty might be interested, they need workshops and educational material," he says.
Programs that try to engage high school students in robotics, such as FIRST, help to create a pool of more qualified students for engineering schools to target. Still, "It is a little uneven as to what their actual skill set or background is," Klassner says. If the student actually worked on the design of the robot system, the college has something to build on. If the student participated more on a support basis, such as by updating a website, that student might not be as ready for computer science or engineering.
The industry could help the academics by providing compelling robot demos to attract students. "The dog and pony show works. Which one you use is a question. Faculty members really need to have something to run right out of the box to show students," Klassner notes.
At Harvey Mudd College in Claremont, CA, the approach is to use robots and robotics applications in the introductory computer science course as a final project, with students often using iRobot Create from iRobot. "We always have a full complement of students working on robot projects each summer," says Zachary Dodds of Harvey Mudd. Some of those students have presented their robotics at the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence's annual meeting, and sometimes they compete in external contests. "There are always more students that would like to get involved than there are supervisors and advisors to coordinate them," he says.
Dodds has a contrarian view of whether the robotics industry is facing a workforce shortage. "If robotics explodes, for example through a 'killer app' in elder care or interpersonal communications, perhaps there will be concern about supplying enough roboticists. At the moment, I do not see the robotics industry suffering from a lack of talented engineers or computational scientists," he says.
Dodds continues, "I would be surprised if the robotics industry is interested in robotics-specific graduates over talented, broadly-trained and broad-thinking engineers. Robotics is fundamentally integrative," he says.
Self-Learning Some Help
Some of the skepticism about a looming robotics and engineering workforce shortage is the result of advances in self-learning technology. For example, when shipbuilder Northrop Grumman asked Native American Technologies Co. (NA Tech) to build an advanced robot for straightening metal, the company asked NA Tech where the robot operator workforce would come from. "We have been amazingly successful in rapidly bringing new operators up a learning curve using self-learning technology," says Jerry Jones, CTO of NA Tech. In one example, a new operator worked with a new robot for 10 hours, and did work that would take 20 hours using the manual process the robot was automating.
"We took the most advanced self-learning technology out there and put it right into the robot," says Jones. "By using advanced learning technology, we can train the workforce to use the equipment quickly reducing much of the problem. We will just train the people doing the manual labor today in the same industry. Hopefully, they will find it very natural to use these robots in this human-robot partnership approach."
Increasing Technical LILeracy
Meanwhile in the southern states of Texas, Alabama and Georgia, the BEST program is dedicated to getting more K-12 students interested in a science education, through the study of robotics. BEST is the second largest competition of its kind behind FIRST, and is free unlike the $6,000 entrance fee charge by FIRST. Both FIRST and BEST rely heavily on engineers from industry to work side by side with student teams, to "demystify" engineering.
This approach is concentrated on helping students to achieve "technological literacy," a term gaining traction as the way to describe what 21st century workers need to fully participate. The International Technology Education Association (ITEA) proposes this definition:
Technological literacy is far more than the ability to use technological tools. Technologically literate citizens employ systems-oriented thinking as they interact with the technological world, cognizant of how such interaction affects individuals, our society, and the environment. Technological literacy is the ability to use, manage, assess, and understand technology. It involves knowledge, abilities, and the application of both knowledge and abilities to real-world situations. Citizens of all ages benefit from technological literacy, whether it is obtained through formal or informal educational environments." (Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technological_literacy)
According to George Blanks of Auburn University, while attending a Governor's Conference on Math and Science Education a few years ago, Bill Gates of Microsoft was a keynote speaker. Gates told the audience that the American high school is broken and should be thrown out. He said the U.S. education system does not work, and China, European Union and India have surpassed the U.S. in preparing students for future industry jobs.
"The reason we started doing robotics competitions was to get kids interested and excited about engineering, science and applied math. Industry is interested in preparedness, in a future work source. Our education system has failed in many respects. In Alabama, we're doing something about it now," Blanks says.
The Best program (http://www.bestinc.org), which started in 1993, had two schools involved the first year and fourteen in the second. This past Fall, some 600 schools and 11,000 students participated. "It started to give kids something to do in engineering that was fun, and turned into schools and companies interested in the program because it was getting kids interested in engineering and science as it applied to work. And it is a perfect marriage of K-12 students to engineering schools and industry."
Engineering colleges are seeing 50% or higher attrition rates among first-year students. Students are often not prepared for the math and science requirements, and have little understanding of what engineers do. "Robotics is a practical application of physics and math. There is calculus and some algebra involved. It's a hand-on engineering experience and they learn engineering design process, which every college student learns," Dr. Blanks says. "Our philosophy is, if you can teach kids in middle school and high school, and combine that with a good foundation in algebra one and two, calculus and physics, they are more likely to be prepared to go to an engineering school."
"The only critical issue is the degree by which the US trails the rest of the world. I do not know if it is possible to catch up," says Dr. Blanks.
The optimistic view is the public-private partnership represented by efforts such as BEST and FIRST, will help produce more students interested in studying engineering, which in turn will help produce a workforce for the growing robotics industry.

This problem is intermittent and goes away with each key cycle but usually comes on right away after start up and usually as soon as I hit a bump or the rear end flexes the springs.
The ABS and brake light will come on but the ABS still works fine and I have not had any unwarranted ABS events while driving,only the malfunction indicator lights.
This has been going on for a couple years now but I have always been curious as to wether it was a rear wheel speed sensor or some sort of inclination sensor since it seems to happen when I hit a bump in the rear.
I have had one issue once with the power steering pump that went bad and my Wife lost her brakes....thank God she was in a parking lot and not in traffic.
I think the hydro boost brake system should never have been installed on passenger vehicles since a malfunction in your power steering or a lost belt can cost you your life.
BTW, that power steering pump replacement sure sucked, and the first one I installed was faulty,and had to come right off then the replacement one was not machined well and the tolerance was a bit too tight and was a nightmare trying to press the pulley onto the impeller shaft.

Stage 2
The Mindfulness of Breathing, Stage Two
The second stage of the mindfulness of breathing practice is similar to the first, but instead of counting the out-breaths, as we do in stage one, we count the in-breaths. This subtly changes our experience, as you'll see.
Set up your posture, as described in the posture guidelines, allowing the body to relax as much as possible while maintaining a sense of dignity in the way you sit.
Stage One
Then, spend a few minutes doing the first stage of the practice, counting after each out-breath in cycles of one to ten. (If you haven't done the first stage of the practice, then we strongly recommend that you go back and review that section before trying it). When you feel you've begun to calm your mind down a little, move on to the second stage of the practice.
Stage Two
In the second stage of the practice we continue to count in cycles of ten breaths, the difference being that this time we count just before each inhalation.
So this time, the pattern is like this:
Then begin counting (internally) after every out-breath:
1 – Breathe in – breathe out
2 – Breathe in – breathe out
3 – Breathe in – breathe out
4 – Breathe in – breathe out
5 – Breathe in – breathe out
… and so on until you reach ten.
Once you get to ten, start over again at one before the next in-breath.
Whenever you regain your awareness after being distracted, bring your attention gently back to the breath.
Really notice the sensations of the in-breath, in particular. Notice the upward movement, the sense of expansion, the sense of energy that accompanies the inhalation, and perhaps even a sense of alertness and mental brightness.
You can listen to an MP3 guided meditation that will lead you through the Second Stage of the practice by clicking on the player below:

isn't "after each out-breath" and "before each inhalation" the same moment?
Comment from Bodhipaksa
Time: December 19, 2010, 6:14 pm
Of course it is. But what you're doing is either counting outbreaths that have just happened, or inbreaths just before they take place. Experientially, the two actions are quite different.

Good morning again Bodhipaksa. I have a question. I have been using your mp3 recordings at the bottom of these pages to guide me through my meditations. I am finding that sitting in front of my computer to listen is a bit distracting and not ideal. Is the MP3 recording entitled Mindfulness Meditation the same as what's here? Thank you.
Comment from Meghan
Time: June 27, 2012, 8:19 am
Oops, I'm sorry, it's called the Mindfulness of Breathing…
Comment from Bodhipaksa
Time: June 27, 2012, 8:22 am
It's the same practice. Every time I lead a meditation it's different, so they're not identical. Much better audio, though!
Comment from Meghan
Time: June 27, 2012, 8:37 am
I am not finding it on iTunes. Is the "Wisdom of the Breath: Three Guided Meditations for…" also the same practice? Sorry to bother you with this!

can you please make it so the guided meditations recordings on the site are working id like to try them but none work
Comment from Bodhipaksa
Time: December 22, 2013, 8:34 pm
Presumably you're finding that the MP3 on this page isn't working? I'm not sure why that would be. It's working when I try it on my computer or iPad. Perhaps you could try another browser?

TNT opens Queensland freight depot
A surge in mining activity and online retail sales promps TNT Express to open a new freight facility at Eagle Farm in Brisbane
December 12, 2012
A surge in mining activity and online retail sales has prompted TNT Express to open a new freight facility at Eagle Farm in Brisbane.
The 5000 square metre depot has a fully automated parcel sortation system with the capacity to scan and sort 3500 parcels an hour.
The state-of-the-art system sorts domestic and international freight, and is the second Trisort SDX Shoe Sorter to be installed in Australia.
TNT Express Australia Managing Director Bob Black says new Brisbane depot was constructed to support the growing demand for
freight movement in Queensland.
"Prior to opening TNT Express Brisbane North, the smaller depots' capacities were often exceeded," Black says.
"We attribute the significant increase in freight passing through our depot to Australia's current economic drivers, which we view as the mining and online retail industries."
Black says TNT has also noticed a particular surge in international and priority freight heading to Papua New Guinea.
He says as the trend for purchasing online continues to grow exponentially, the new Brisbane North depot demonstrates TNT Express' long-term commitment to Brisbane and Queensland as a whole.
"TNT Express is the preferred delivery service for a number of high profile retailers, including multinational electrical goods companies," Black says.
The new Brisbane depot has a fleet of over 50 vehicles and 185 operations and customer service staff, the latter working from the facility's two-storey, 730 square metre
office block.
Specifically designed to reduce power use, water consumption and waste disposal requirements, the facility has sub-metered air conditioning and translucent roof sheeting for each bay in the warehouse to reduce the need for electric lighting.
The advanced air-conditioning system monitors CO2 levels, providing additional fresh air to heavily occupied rooms.
The system also gauges whether outside air temperature and humidity is within the right range to allow the building to be cooled using natural air only.
In addition the depot uses green certified products, recycled materials for fill, native plants for landscaping, and was built from 80 percent recycled construction materials.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. - If you want a local wine for your Thanksgiving meal, St. Kathryn Cellars' "Cranberry Kiss" is a winner.
Talon Wine Brands, which includes St. Kathryn Cellars, Talon Winery and Meadery of the Rockies, recently won 21 medals - 10 gold, five silver and six bronze - at the 2012 Denver International Wine Competition held at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in downtown Denver.
Cranberry Kiss won silver.
"People love to buy it for Thanksgiving," owner and head winemaker Glenn Foster said. "It's a beautiful cranberry color. It's really flavorable - it tastes like cranberry, with a touch of sweetness. It has just the right amount of pucker power."
Eight-hundred wines from 13 countries entered the competition with Talon Wine Brands, the second highest medal winner overall.
"We're tickled to get some international attention," Foster said, who entered the annual competition for the first time this year. "It's really wonderful. We're proud."
One of the gold medal winners was Talon Winery's Viognier. Priced at $13.95, Foster said it's a bargain.
"Viognier is one of the best grapes in the Grand Valley," Foster said. "It's luscious, a decadent wine, with a great tropical fruit character."
The white wine pairs wonderfully with seafood, he added.
Another gold went to an un-oaked Talon Chardonnay.
"It's also white, a little dryer, crisper than the Viognier," Foster said.
Sweet Scarlet - a dark, sweet red wine from St. Kathryn Cellars - also won gold. It's a rich blend of half-Merlot and half-blackberry, Foster said.
Wines are tasted by a panel of judges, in "a rigorous, double-blind" competition where judges "have no idea what they're tasting," Foster said.
Foster founded Talon Winery in Fruita in April 2005. He expanded his wine making in 2008, by purchasing Meadery of the Rockies and St. Kathryn Cellars in Palisade. Under the three brands, Foster and his executive winemaker Brian Stevens make 40 different wines and they plan to add two additional wines in the spring.
