How to Be Good on Cart Surfer on Club Penguin
Cart Surfer is fun and is a great way to make money on Club Penguin, but you need to know how to play properly to get lots of coins. So follow the steps and you will soon be a rich penguin!
1Enter Cart Surfer. Bring your black puffle, if you have one.Ad
2Compete all the stamps. This will give you twice as many coins when you play.
3Press the down arrow and let go.
4Press the space bar before you stop tilting and you will do a flip and get 100 points.
5Press the space bar and then press the left or right arrow keys. You will spin-jump and get 80 points.
6Repeat this in this order with rapid succession.
7To grind on turns push down arrow then the respective left/right arrow.
- If you press down 2 times you will get 80 points.
8If you are playing for coins, Crash 2 times so you have extra time. You can get up to 360 points after 2 crashes!Ad
We could really use your help!
raising children?
cleaning clothes?
small business?
- You can get 80 points when turning by using the down arrow, then the right or left arrow key.
- You need to know where the arrow keys and space bar are without looking.
- It is good to crash in a way, because you repeat that section of the track. This lets you rack up more points, causing up to 150-200 more coins and 100-360 more points. The best sections on which to crash are the shortest ones, as then you can repeat two sections of track.
- The reason you should alternate tricks is because if you do one trick twice in a row you will only get half the points.

I just spent about $120 on a car DVD player and am trying to figure out if it's worth returning it and getting this. It obviously has the extra features a tablet provides over a standard dvd player and it may be worth the extra $.
kingofdetroit ( ) Feb. 8, 2013 at 10:38am
In my opinion the Nexus 7 is a far better choice. Sure its not expandable memory but come on. Who is loading big movie files still anymore. When I'm in the house I stream everything from my media server to my tablets with ES File Explorer using MX Player to watch. It's great. Also even if I did want to copy movies I crunch them to 700 megs for a 2hr movie. That's a fair amount of hours of movies to keep on standby IMHO. The build/weight/grip of the Nexus 7 is way better than any other 7 inch tablet IMHO. Also it's a Nexus device so easy to root and load custom ROMS. Awesome stuff.
I'm actually waiting for the Polaroid M7 to come out. It's got a dual core A9(good enough for me) and a 7inch 1280x800 IPS display, Jelly Bean and EXPANDABLE MEMORY for $129. Looks promising.

The red color is what I don't like, it's so girly. Why r-e-e-d-d?
The amazon link OP provides has jelly bean, can one upgrade it to jelly bean? yes?
Can someone comment on the screen if you have 1? The resolution1024x600 seems low and it's not IPS.
Does the screen look worse than ipad 2? The network thingies are nice to have though.

According to Engadget, the red ones are a special Valentine's Day short trrm release, and have Jellybean.
The Samsung site says Jellybean also.
But this ad clearly says ICS, so I'm wondering what's up.

Today I attended the fabulous Blogger's Boutique event! I was invited aaaaages ago, and only just realised on Thursday that it was today! It was such a rush going shopping for an outfit, and the Zara dress I had my heart set on was sold out :( but I made it in the end and made do with this neon number! I met up with the lovely Drea beforehand, and after tripping over in our heels about 10 times, facing the disastrous wind which definitely wanted me to flash everyone, chasing my hat down the road and walking the complete wrong way, we finally found our way to the incredible Drift Bar in London. It was tough but we made it!

10 Foods Youd Never Expect to Be Protein-Rich
See the shockingly impressive stats these eats pack
By Brianna Steinhilber
3. Green Peas
4 grams per ½ cup
You may have pushed peas around your plate as a kid, but what you (and even your mom) may not have known is that the tiny veggies are practically pure protein. Peas are a member of the legume family (a subgroup of vegetables that are the seeds of a plant) related to two of the most well-known plant-based proteins: beans and lentils. While they may often be overlooked, peas live up to the family legacy, with more protein per serving than an egg white (which has 3.5 grams).

Linux Pandora Box Goes into Mass Production
Around $330 gets you a Linux-based Pandora handheld by shopping online, although the first buyers had to hurry.
The Pandora looks like a Nintendo DS with a built-in keypad. It is the successor to the GP2X released around three years ago. The manufacturer, OpenPandora, hopes to produce 3,000 devices during this year -- assuming enough paid orders come in. Mass production should start 2009.
Visitors started besieging the OpenPandora website soon after the announcement and within six hours 2,000 orders had come in, bringing down the site for a short while. The forum was so overloaded that a temporary one had to be put in its place. The first batch of devices was orderable until Sunday, October 5 (even if they have to raise the batch to 4,000 units), and the first Pandoras should be entering the mail by end of November if all goes according to plan. The website will be updated on Tuesday with the final sales figures and the week after the very first of the mass production PCBs should be seen. The second batch orderable after October 5 should be available next year.
The diminutive Pandora handheld comes with an ARM Cortex-A8 CPU, 128MB active and 156 flash storage, and an OpenGL 2.0 ES-compliant PowerVR SGX 3D graphics processor. The 4.3" touchscreen LCD displays 800x480 pixels in 16 million colors. Input devices include the tiny gaming controls reminiscent of Gamepads and a 43-button QWERTY keyboard. Little treats include Wifi 802.11b/g, Bluetooth, a USB 2.0 port and an S-Video connection for TV output. The batteries should provide at least 10 hours of gaming pleasure. To see the Pandora in action, see the video on OpenPandora's Developer Blog page.
While all the possible tools for gamemakers are available for free on the developer wiki, older console emulators will probably keep the game supply coming, much as they did for the GP2X predecessor.

Being a guitar professional for over 45 years, Paul knows all styles of music, and has a passion for teaching guitar. His adult students rave about how they've learned more with Paul in a few months than they have in years on their own.
The parents of his younger students are so happy to have someone their children can relate to and have fun learning. Paul's real-world experience helps his students progress faster and understand the guitar better.
Because of some long-term construction, I currently teach at the student's home (Sudbury only).

|FHWA > Engineering > Construction > Contract Admin > SEP-14 > Indiana Department of Transportation SEP 14 Report Alternate Pavement Type
Indiana Department of Transportation SEP 14 Report Alternate Pavement Type
Appendix D US 31 (IR-30889)
Eight (8) Contractors participated in the bidding (7 PCCP options and 2 HMA options were bid) and all bids were below the engineer's estimate. One (1) Contractor participated in both pavement types pay options. In this contract, there were four pay item options as follows:
The Contractor could bid on the following combinations:
All bids were either a and/or d.
INDOT provided the following pavement design thickness for this project:
Bid Analysis Summary
The low bid amount for this contract was decided after adding respective combinations of US 31 and US 35/SR 22 pay items options. The low bid amount, out of all 8 bids, was for PCCP pay items option (Bidder B) and after adding PW cost of PCCP and HMA of US 31 and US 35/SR 22 to the respective combinations of pavement type options, PCCP option was also the low bid (Bidder B). PCCP pay items option was awarded for this contract.
INDOT compared the estimated cost with actual low bid costs of both pavement types. The following table shows the cost comparison with low bid of those pavement items that were relative to the mainline pavements and relative to this alternate bid for pavement type. All other items in the bids were common to both types of pavement. Shoulders and other "S" Lines are to be HMA.
* Bidder E was significantly and consistently higher on almost all HMA items.
The above table shows that pavement item bids are lower than the estimates used in the evaluation. This indicates that a true cost saving was realized by INDOT in this process.
The table below compares some common HMA items found in both PCCP and HMA options to check for unbalanced bids. These bids appear to be consistent and no anomalies were found.
INDOT saved the tax payers approximately $1,951,912.18 immediately, at the bid opening, (HMA Low Bid - PCCP Low Bid). Using the Bid Analysis amounts (after PW costs applied); INDOT saved the tax payers approximately $3,022,798.18 over the 50 year service life of the pavement. These savings include the reduction of INDOT's consultant cost of $69,000.00 for producing two sets of typical plan sheets and quantities. The inhouse costs for INDOT were determined negligible.
The PW cost for future maintenance did not impact the bid and which contractor received the contract. INDOT believes using this process of alternate bids for pavement type selection on this project was very successful.
PW of Future Maintenance of the Pavement IR-30889 (US 31)
PW of PCCP Option (US 31 & Ramps, Section 1) = $1,271,495.00
PW of HMA Option (US 31 & Ramps, Section 2) = $2,060,540.00
PW of PCCP Option (US 35, Section 3) = $515,677.00
PW of HMA Option (US 35, Section 4) = $797,518.00
PW = F [1/(1+i)n]
Where: F = Future Construction Cost
PW = F [1/(1+i)n]
Where: F = Future Construction Cost

Tax payable on an advantage
The 100% tax on advantages generally applies to transactions occurring, income earned and capital gains accruing after March 22, 2011.
If the annuitant or a person not dealing at arm's length with the annuitant (including the annuitant's RRSP or RRIF) was provided with an advantage in relation to their RRSP or RRIF during the year, a tax is payable which is:
- in the case of a benefit, the fair market value (FMV) of the benefit;
- in the case of a loan or a debt, the amount of the loan or debt; and
- in the case of an RRSP strip, the amount of the RRSP strip.
The tax is payable by the RRSP or RRIF annuitant, unless the advantage is extended by the financial institution, in which case it is payable by the financial institution.
Transitional relief is available in respect of the advantage tax on prohibited investments held on March 23, 2011. For more information, see Transitional relief.
An annuitant subject to this tax is required to file Form RC339, Individual Return for Certain Taxes for RRSPs or RRIFs for Tax Year 20__. The return must be filed no later than June 30 of the following year. Any tax owing must also be paid by that date. For payment remittance options, see Make a payment.
Important notice
The Department of Finance extended the deadline for filing Form RC341, Election on Transitional Prohibited Investment Benefit for RRSPs or RRIFs, from June 30, 2012 to March 1, 2013. However, there is no indication at this time that this election will be extended beyond the 2012 tax year. For updates on the extension of the transitional relief election, go to What's new for RRSPs and related plans.
Swap Transactions
A swap transaction is expressly included in the list of transactions that are treated as an advantage, with effect from July 1, 2011. Swap transactions that are undertaken to remove an investment from an RRSP or RRIF that would otherwise result in tax under Part XI.01 if left in the plan are permitted to continue to occur until the end of 2021.
The Department of Finance has proposed that the transitional period "until the end of 2021" be extended indefinitely.
An exception to the swap rules is provided to allow individuals to "swap-out" a non-qualified or prohibited investment that was subject to the new 50% tax. To qualify under this exception, the individual must be entitled to a refund of the tax on disposition of the investment (generally inadvertent cases that are promptly resolved). In addition, we will extend this exception, on an administrative basis, to cover swaps of non-qualified investments that were subject to the pre-March 23, 2011 rules, provided that the conditions applicable to a refund are met.

Re: What is the formula for laminar mixing?4 March 2009 at 1:29pm
I stand by my initial advice. The "Handbook of Industrial Mixing" has about as much information as you are going to find in any literature reference, without a more complete background in mixing. A short course on mixing might fill some of those gaps. In the laminar range, Reynolds number less than 10, the power number for a pitched-blade turbine is 52.6 divided by the Reynolds number. The other answers to torque and bending requirements for shaft design and gearbox design can be found in Chapter 21, Mechanical Design of Mixing Equipment, in the "Handbook of Industrial Mixing".
Beyond that information, the mixer you describe will not effectively mix the "tomato suspension in boiling water" you describe. The table Mixer Design Total - small shows that one 15-inch diameter pitched-blade turbine running at 15 rpm puts only 0.0025 hp into the process, for a mixing intensity of 0.15. A mixing intensity of 1.0 is required to effectively move all of the contents in the tank.
The table Mixer Design Total - small 2 shows using three pitched-blade turbines operating at 125 rpm will possibly mix the contents. Actually, pitched-blade turbines are probably not the best impeller choice for low Reynolds number (36) applications. At least more larger impellers are required to handle viscous fluids.

Selling your stuff online used to be so damned complicated that many small businesses wouldn't even contemplate it in the past. They would prefer to go through a distributor and take a smaller cut rather than attempt to get their own credit card payment system online. But, in this ever changing e-commerce friendly world, it just got a little easier - as easy as pressing a button, in fact.

Have a look at your fridge door. Is it covered with post-it notes detailing money owed or split bills that you share with flat mates? Or a list of books, cd's or DVD's that you have lent to friends? That's how mine looks, anyway. I've thought of using one of the many apps available but, to be quite honest, they've left a little to be desired. Some only link up to your social media friends, some require yet another log in with a password (just what i need) and some only deal in money whereas most of the things I ... Read more

Datamoto is a cloud-based enterprise resource planning (ERP) application for businesses of all sizes.

I wonder how much each of us pays out in late payment fees every year.

Rahmani, Mawardi (1982) The Nitration of Monoalkyl Benzene and the Separation of its Isomers by Gas Chromatography. Pertanika, 5 (1). pp. 7-11.
The nitronium ion, N02 +, is believed to be the attacking electrophile in the nitration reaction. When this reaction is carried out on monoalkyl substituted benzene, the substituents playa major role in determining the products obtained. The reaction also depends on the different methods of nitration employed. This report describes the method of determining the percentage of each isomer produced by gas chromatography.

Things may be looking up for poor Li Hongfang who suffers from a rare condition which has severely disfigured her face.
Li's tragic story begins around ten years ago when the mother-of-two first noticed an insect-bite-sized lump growing on her forehead.
"I didn't think anything of it when I got a small swelling on my forehead, I thought it was probably just an insect bite." Li explains.
"It didn't even itch or ache in any way, but it also didn't go away and in fact just got bigger and bigger."
Li's condition wasn't diagnosed until four years later, by which time a total of seven tumours were beginning to distort her pretty face. The doctors told Li that she was suffering from a rare form of cancer called chordoma. The disease causes tumours to grow on the skull. When doctors diagnosed Li with the rare cancer they told her she would need to pay £60,000 for treatment, which was well beyond her means.
Shortly after being diagnosed Li's husband then died, and her two sons left home to find work leaving her all alone in a community where many considered her an ugly monster.
"I thought things were pretty bad then and they couldn't get worse, but a short while later my husband died and I was alone."
"I guess that was probably the lowest point in the whole experience because I just felt like killing myself but then I thought of my boys and somewhere I found the strength to go on."
And now things are at last beginning to change for Li, since going public about her condition there has been a huge campaign internet website Sina Weibo, which is the Chinese equivalent of Twitter. The overwhelming support put pressure on local council officials to pay for Li's treatment and hopefully restore her looks.

Win 8 Release candidate 8400
These were related to memory corruption.
Typically caused by a bad block in the paging file or disk controller error. Please run a chkdsk first and then the two below.
Disk Check
These crashes were caused by memory corruption probably a driver.
Please run these two tests to verify your memory and find which driver is causing the problem.
* If you are overclocking anything reset to default before running these tests.
In other words STOP!!!
* If you have raid update its Driver.
*Download a copy of Memtest86 and burn the ISO to a CD using Iso Recorder or another ISO burning program. Memtest86+ - Advanced Memory Diagnostic Tool
*Boot from the CD, and leave it running for at least 5-7 passes.
Just remember, any time Memtest reports errors, it can be either bad RAM or a bad motherboard slot.
Test the sticks individually, and if you find a good one, test it in all slots.
Any errors are indicative of a memory problem.
If a known good stick fails in a motherboard slot it is probably the slot.
Driver verifier
Using Driver Verifier is an iffy proposition. Most times it'll crash and it'll tell you what the driver is. But sometimes it'll crash and won't tell you the driver. Other times it'll crash before you can log in to Windows. If you can't get to Safe Mode, then you'll have to resort to offline editing of the registry to disable Driver Verifier.
So, I'd suggest that you first backup your stuff and then make sure you've got access to another computer so you can contact us if problems arise. Then make a System Restore point (so you can restore the system using the Vista/Win7 Startup Repair feature).
Then, here's the procedure:
- Go to Start and type in "verifier" (without the quotes) and press Enter
- Select "Create custom settings (for code developers)" and click "Next"
- Select "Select individual settings from a full list" and click "Next"
- Select everything EXCEPT FOR "Special Pool", "Force Pending I/O Requests" and "Low Resource Simulation" and click "Next"
- Select "Select driver names from a list" and click "Next"
Then select all drivers NOT provided by Microsoft and click "Next"
- Select "Finish" on the next page.
If you are using win 8 add these
- Concurrency Stress Test
- DDI compliance checking
Reboot the system and wait for it to crash to the Blue Screen.
Continue to use your system normally, and if you know what causes the crash, do that repeatedly.
The objective here is to get the system to crash because Driver Verifier is stressing the drivers out.
If it doesn't crash for you, then let it run for at least 36 hours of continuous operation.
Reboot into Windows (after the crash) and turn off Driver Verifier by going back in and selecting "Delete existing settings" on the first page, then locate and zip up the memory dump file and upload it with your next post.
If you can't get into Windows because it crashes too soon, try it in Safe Mode.
If you can't get into Safe Mode, try using System Restore from your installation DVD to set the system back to the previous restore point that you created. You did create a restore point didnt you?

No changelog yet.
Note: This is not 10.0.01 that was released a few weeks ago
AngryTechnician (15th June 2011), Arthur (14th June 2011), flyinghaggis (15th June 2011)
Serious Bugs.
We rolled back to 9.4 because of issues printing multiple copies with X.
Dam i am never going to get my image perfect
FoxIT is far better
There is no such thing as the perfect image.
It's starts with a great image.. then becomes an image with something a teacher hasn't informed you that they needed.. then theres software updates.. then it's out of date.
We had an issue with FoxIT Reader with fonts. Some fonts wouldn't render correctly.
Did you also get the "It doesn't look that way on the screen" with FoxIT ?
Suprised you put things like adobe on the image, usually ends up out of date fairly quickly and needs updating via GPO anyway :P
Yeah. The quality of the font rendering in FoxIt wasn't very good (my PDFs looked almost exactly like the ones shown here).Originally Posted by TheMinister[/URL
Release notes... that need a PDF reader installed first to read
I've actually been looking at deploying PDF-X-Change. It seems to be a nice PDF reader and had a mottle of other features, namely PDF to TIF,JPG.
For those of you that still use Adobe Reader X, deploying the MSP update file will be quicker as it's half the size of the Adobe Reader X 10.1 MSI.
Edit: On seconds thoughts it doesn't work, but deploying the MSI does, oh well...

10.1 versions and it's still slow, buggy and vulnerable. If I didn't have to update adobe products every few days I might be able to get some more work done.
Tell me about it, I'm forever updating Flash player. I wouldn't bother but it's always major security fixes so I have no choice. I wish Adobe would get together with Microsoft and allow it to be added properly to WSUS, then I could just ignore it.If I didn't have to update adobe products every few days I might be able to get some more work done.

Introducing Axway B2Bi Express — Simplified, Pre-packaged B2B
As the demands of business-to-business (B2B) communication and information processing grow increasingly complex, businesses of all sizes need the ability to expertly manage information flow with trading partners in real time. This is especially true as customer mandates — and burgeoning regulatory compliance — require that companies connect applications and enterprise resource planning (ERP) to every point in their business ecosystem.
Yet the fact is that many organizations deploy disparate and/or stop-gap solutions that vary widely in their messaging and management capabilities, making reliable communications, seamless order processing, and robust trading partner management next to impossible.
Axway B2Bi Express provides mid-sized enterprises and mid-sized projects with these business benefits:
Better visibility and control over B2B transactions
Easy installation, maintenance and mapping to applications
Decreased need for management and support of data exchanges
Scalability and security to grow with the business
Upgradeability into full enterprise-class B2Bi, including business activity monitoring (BAM) and enterprise-wide visibility, managed file transfer (MFT), end point management, etc.
"What sets Axway B2Bi Express apart from other solutions is the functionality," said Ulf Persson, director of solutions marketing, Axway. "It is built like an enterprise solution, yet is affordable and easy to use. Companies can manage secure communications with any partner, track the flow of information, and integrate their own front- and back-end systems. Best of all, the solution grows with their business."
Axway B2Bi Express offers:
Secure B2B communications with support for standard messaging and business protocols
Robust trading partner management
Internal and back-end integration, leveraging existing investments in IT
EDI support and document handling
Powerful mapping capabilities
Message tracking and reporting to streamline data exchanges end-to-end
Agile and scalable B2B architecture
Migration tools
The solution is based on Synchrony™, Axway's "start anywhere, use anything" service-oriented framework. Companies can use Axway B2Bi Express and extend their services to their trading partners, with little or no addition to their existing infrastructures, to complete the "last mile" of customer or supplier integration.
The solution is offered through Axway, and will also be sold by Lawson Software, a global provider of enterprise software systems, to its clients. Axway B2Bi Express will serve as an extension to Lawson's offering of ERP software.

Never been kissed? Now you can pucker up in glorious 3D
Still have those 3D glasses handy from yesterday's super-lame 3D Super Bowl ads? Now you can put them on again, get right up next to the 3D hype and kiss it with your own mouth. Well, almost. It's cute, but they're trying to sell you some teeth whitening strips, we're warning you.
While this babe Olivia is definitely kissable, the 3D effect makes us want to go for a handshake instead — it's not even worth a Hollywood-style air kiss. Pucker up? Nah, but this might be fine for someone who's never been kissed, especially the "steamy" one.

I am a proud graduate of Hinsdale South High School. But my biggest fear for District 86 is that the School Board majority will make changes so devastating that future students won't be proud to say the same.
Award-winning school districts like ours aren't the result of luck or happenstance. We thrive because of the partnership of our teachers, administration, students and families.
When excellence is threatened, as it has been by this School Board, those who care take a stand. I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt that the teachers of District 86 care deeply for its students. They have shown they care when they stayed late into the night for extracurricular activities, spent their nights and weekends grading papers and tests, and kept in touch years after graduation.
All the majority of the School Board has shown they care about is saving a quick buck.
After talking to fellow classmates, I can state that we do not want a School Board that is so opaque after guaranteeing transparency. We do not want a School Board that chases out highly-regarded administrators, only to replace them with those who have a 100 percent disapproval rating. We do not want a School Board that makes irresponsible decisions such as a flat tax levy and eliminating experienced school nurses.
Please don't let this board majority ruin the excellence of District 86. We deserve more than the poor-decision-making of this board. It is time we demand it.

So when did submarine patents first begin to emerge? According to Herb Wamsley, executive director of the Intellectual Property Owners Association, the phenomenon probably started when the PTO began offering inventors the option to refile their patent applications. Back in the 1940s, the PTO would only review a patent application twice. If the application failed after two reviews, it was rejected and no patent was issued. This practice meant that applicants would lose their valuable early filing date. If applicants wanted a third review, a new application had to be completed, and it was assigned a new, later filing date.
Because so many patents were being rejected, the PTO eventually decided to allow patent applications to be refiled for an additional fee without losing their valuable early filing dates. Because they could now be refiled, patents sometimes remained in the PTO system for years before they were finally issued.
As the previous examples show, once a submarine patent surfaces, it can be very costly to companies unaware of its existence. This situation has led both the Senate and House to write reform bills that are still pending in Congress. One recommendation is that patent applications should be published for public review 18 months after being filed with the PTO. However, most individual inventors fear the secrecy enjoyed during the patent-pending stage could potentially be destroyed.
But many legal experts support the concept of early publication. Bob Chiaviello, a patent attorney with Baker & Botts in Dallas, believes it's a good idea for two reasons: First, publication of pending patents would make the United States' patent laws consistent with those of other countries; and second, it would offer a level of comfort to businesses that fear surprise patents might surface for technologies they're developing.
Today, some patent-filing reforms have been achieved. Currently, patents filed after 1995 have a 20-year term, but the term begins on the patent filing date. If a patent takes 10 years to issue, for example, the patent will only have a remaining term of 10 years (unless the patent qualifies for the five-year Patent Term Extension). This modification provides some insurance against submarine patents. But because technology is changing so rapidly, a patent popping up 10 years after a product hits the market could still have a devastating impact on an industry.
Although some inventors will tell you that owning a submarine patent is like winning the lottery, others would disagree. Like many windfall profits, it's the consumer who ultimately pays--in higher prices. And as an inventor, I have a problem with people who profit from ideas they didn't actually develop. It doesn't seem fair that the person who takes the time, energy and risk to pursue an idea, and then markets that idea, should have to share his or her profits with someone who invested little but filed first. The fact that submarine patents may be lurking is something to remember the next time you approach the PTO with an invention.

China landed a remotely piloted spacecraft on the moon on Saturday, state media reported, in the first such "soft-landing" since 1976, joining the United States and the former Soviet Union in managing to accomplish such a feat.
Scientists burst into applause as a computer generated image representing the spacecraft was shown landing on screens at a Beijing control centre, state broadcaster China Central Television (CCTV) showed on Saturday, 12 days after Chang'e-3 blasted off on a Long March-3B carrier rocket.
Landing was the "most difficult" part of the mission, the Chinese Academy of Sciences had said in an online post written on the official Chang'e-3 Weibo page.
The probe, which was fitted with shock absorbers in the legs to cushion the impact of the landing, performed a "free-fall" for the crucial final few metres of descent.
"Chang'e-3 is completely relying on auto-control for descent, range and velocity measurements, finding the proper landing point, and free-falling," Chang'e-3's microblog said before the landing. "At this stage, the Earth base is effectively powerless, and there is only about 10 minutes to finish the process."
Ambitious programme
After reaching the lunar surface, the module will release its rover, which can climb slopes of up to 30 degrees and travel at 200 metres per hour, according to the Shanghai Aerospace Systems Engineering Research Institute.
It has moved in lock step with its emergence as a major global economic and political power.
"The dream for lunar exploration once again lights up the China Dream," Xinhua news agency said in a commentary.
In its most recent manned space mission in June, three astronauts spent 15 days in orbit and docked with an experimental space laboratory, part of Beijing's quest to build a working space station by 2020.
The official Xinhua news service reported that the spacecraft had touched down in the Sinus Iridum, or the Bay of Rainbows, after hovering over the surface for several minutes seeking an appropriate place to land.
A soft landing does not damage the craft and the equipment it carries. In 2007, China put another lunar probe in orbit around the moon, which then executed a controlled crash on to its surface.
China plans to establish a permanent space station by 2020 and eventually send a human to the moon.

Human Impact on Biodiversity: Consequences for Ecosystems and Humans in Latin America and Africa
Bechtel International Center, Assembly Room
Rodolfo Dirzo, CLAS Director and Bing Professor in Environmental Sciences, Stanford University
Two common features of Africa and Latin America are their exuberant biodiversity and the dramatic negative impact of human activities on the two regions' ecosystems. With the exception of the arid lands of the two continents, their more equatorial (tropical) and temperate ecosystems hold a significant proportion of the world's biological diversity. At the same time, habitat destruction, as revealed by satellite imagery and calculation of the corresponding deforestation rates, is in some regions of the two regions among the highest worldwide. Beyond deforestation, recent research has uncovered the fact that human impact on wildlife, a phenomenon that, by analogy, I call "defaunation," although not readily visible, is also of dramatic magnitude, in some cases leading to a syndrome of "empty forests" or "empty savannahs" in many parts of both continents. In this talk I will try to i) illustrate the nature and magnitude of defaunation, and ii) ask the question: what are the possible consequences of such defaunation? I explore this question from an ecological perspective –disruption of some ecosystem processes– and then consider the possible ramifications of these ecological disruptions in terms of risks to human health. While I have researched the former – ecological consequences– largely in Latin America, our recent work, exploring risks to human health, is being conducted largely in East Africa. I will share pictures and some data that, albeit preliminary, strongly suggest that animals are much more than a splendid decoration of Neotropical forests and African savannahs.

In "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" visual effects house WETA Digital (of "Avatar") will render, for the first time ever in the film series, photo-realistic apes rather than costumed actors. The Rupert Wyatt directed flick hits theaters August 5th, 2011. …And for those who don't know, the original "Planet of the Apes" film was a huge inspiration for a couple of Ape-oriented brands we cover quite often.

Absolutely incompetent...not so sure "it gets better".
- 1Jul 1, '11 by opossumJust finished my last 12 hr shift this week...I'm sleep deprived and I've been bouncing around between Med Surg and ICU. A brief background: I graduated in 2010 and it took me 9 months to land this job, which I've been working for about 3 months, only a couple of weeks on my own between 2 depts. I did my immersion in a trauma stepdown unit and the ICU where I work also includes stepdown - mostly medical.
Today, I simply wasn't on my game. I had two pts, including a transfer up to MS, as well as a fresh GI post-op in addition to my stable lady w/a GI bleed. Not a problem, I thought...nothing too complicated and I've encountered these kinds of pts before. The day was kind of busy, I felt a little out of sorts because I hadn't worked ICU in a couple of weeks. Everything went alright I guess, although I did make a med error that I told my supervisor about. I also needed help hanging blood, but it all got done. Except some of my charting
When night shift comes on, a seasoned nurse took over my stable lady and asked me a couple of simple questions about her labs. Turns out I didn't really look at her Kardex all day because I was so busy getting my post-op set up and hanging blood, or helping the stable lady with toileting, that I didn't look at the big picture going on: why was stable lady here? Did her troponin peak? What about her H&H?...this is all stuff that I...spaced. I just didn't think of it. I didn't think about what the "plan" for her was...and I feel like a total failure. The seasoned nurse was understandably annoyed at me and I felt like a piece of garbage. Another older nurse had asked me at shift change why stable lady was here in ICU. I just blinked and said, "I don't know. I should know this." Her reply was "Hmph."
I'm starting to wonder if nursing was the right career choice...this is a second (or is it third?) career for me and I suck at it. I truly do, I'm not just saying that. I need to have a heart-to-heart with my manager, who has been extremely helpful and supportive. Most of my coworkers are supportive, for which I am truly grateful. But I'm just afraid this isn't going to "get better" with time...I don't know if I'll EVER get this.
You know how Dan Savage started that whole "It Gets Better Project" for LGBT youth? Do we need to start one for new nurses?
Does it get better if you start out the way I'm starting out??
Thanks for listening...:redpinkhe
- 2Jul 2, '11 by vegasmommaPoor honey! I can't give you advice (I'm still a student) but I'm feeling your discouragement and frustration through your words. I do hope this will get better. Thinking back to first months and first year of my previous jobs I was always unsure, insecure, ****** at myself for mistakes...this is normal when you care! Its clear you have the desire and concern. Decide to learn from these events and stick with it.
- 11Jul 2, '11 by suannaSounds like a NASTY assignment for an ICU anyway. It gets better. I would bet the nurse wasn't asking you for the medical reason the patient hadn't been transfered to a floor, rather, it was a "what the heck is she still doing here" second guessing the doctors kind of question. My standard reply is " because her physician ordered her here and hasn't changed his mind" . As to lab quizzing, it's an old game to make the new nurse feel like a failure. "I haven't a clue, and didn't have time to look them up since they didn't have an impact on my immediate care." is always a fair answer. I could see if you were doing STEMI care on a reperfusion and didn't know your last enzymes, but as much as I'd like to know every lab value on every patient I have, I sometimes just settle for keeping them out of the body bag for my shift. I am not seeing the whole picture, so the nurse following you may not have been nit-picking, but more often as not, questions during report are more an attempt to make you doubt yourself than they are a real need for information. My advice, keep a card on each patient. As things come up that are something you want to pass on in report, make a note of it at that time. Make blank spaces for any labs you expect and want to follow-up on. Ask yourself before you start : what is this patients biggest problem at this time, and what problems am I solving, or watching for over my shift? If you can get that far you are well on your way to managing your patients.
- 1Jul 2, '11 by opossumThanks for the words of encouragement; I'm pretty good at shaking off a bad day but this one just really got to me.
suanna, you're right about the nurse asking about why the patient was still there; we often wonder aloud why certain pts are still in ICU! It just hit me at that moment: I never even asked myself that question the whole shift. I missed "the big picture" - most of the time I just figure it's because the MD didn't feel like rushing to transfer them up or whatever. I wouldn't make a big deal of it anyway unless we needed the bed...but yeah, I just didn't even think of it. I'm still so focused on the little things, like getting all my meds done on time, etc.
vegasmomma, thanks again for the kind words...I've also felt like this in other jobs, feeling like I don't quite fit yet and that it's just a matter of time before I feel comfortable. But this...this is unlike anything I've ever done in my life. It's just so...difficult and draining! I sure hope it gets better.
- 3Jul 7, '11 by NewRN2810Smh I was thinking the same! seems like nothing is going right for me,my manager is also very supportive but I'm wondering how long that will continue? I have not one friend at work and the one person I did call for advice,ignores me now,I guess I complain too much lol But this site has really helped me and if you know any support groups for scared new RNs anonymous then let me know! lol We need our own special support group.
- 2Jul 7, '11 by hikernurseOh, that first year is TOUGH!! Just ride it out one day at a time. I'm sorry this shift was so bad, but you have to do what you can to get through and know that will be enough. Hugs.
- 0Jul 7, '11 by Karl FarmerIt will not get better, only worse as the economy gets worse, more paatients per nurse, sicker because already people can't afford their copays an deductibles so are prolonging medical care, meaning sicker patients, with more pressure to get them out, and so on.
- 1Jul 7, '11 by MelisRNI myself am a brand new nurse. In fact I haven't even started my new job yet. However, I can tell you what I have been told. I was told the first year is awful. You constantly feel like an idiot that should have never been granted a license. It also doesn't help when the experienced nurses hound on you, however it seems to be a type of initiation for some nurses. Just stick in there, you know more than you think you do. And as you practice more you will develop your own routine and plan to find how you work most efficiently. When you're a brand new you are just trying to remember to give your meds at the right time. It will get better!!!!
- 1Jul 7, '11 by Karl FarmerNurses eat their young, always have, and always will. It's party due to envy (you may be prettier than they are, or rebuke their advances), partly job security fear (they can fire tham and hire new grads cheaper), and other reasons, and I'm sure we all could name a few?
- 6Jul 7, '11 by ~Mi Vida Loca~RNQuote from Karl FarmerIt doesn't have to be this way. Not all places are like this and if being a new nurse is so bad I highly doubt the experienced nurses are "envious" that they can't be a new nurse again.Nurses eat their young, always have, and always will. It's party due to envy (you may be prettier than they are, or rebuke their advances), partly job security fear (they can fire tham and hire new grads cheaper), and other reasons, and I'm sure we all could name a few?
OP I am sorry you are having such a bad experience. Hopefully the time flies and once you are no longer considered a new grad you can try and find a better position or a better hospital. Don't give up and believe in yourself. You will gain more confidence and your skills will get better and your time management and so on. Everything you are feeling are echoed all over these boards by other new grad nurses that are working. :heartbeatLast edit by ~Mi Vida Loca~RN on Jul 8, '11

Acer uses lousy keyboards. I have had a 13.3 inch Travelmate, an Aspire One netbook (which I still use), and now I just bought the V5-131 with Celeron 1007U. They all develop problems with the keyboard within one year of purchase - the worse one is the newest V5-131: two keys are faulty (not registering) brand-new. I was so mad that I bought an OEM replacement keyboard (quite a chore to replace the KB!!!), just to discover that the [down arrow] key of the new KB is faulty. Just showing Acer uses lousy keyboards to cut cost!!

Supporting a Strong Clean Air Act
Things to Know About Mercury
As the energy demands of our growing society increase, so do the impacts on our environment. Mercury is a naturally occurring element that is found in a variety of forms in our air, water and soil. Rocks, such as coal, contain mercury that is released into the environment when burned for energy generation. According to the National Emissions Inventory, coal-burning power plants are one of the largest sources of mercury emissions in the United States. When people of all ages and health conditions inhale or ingest mercury, the heart, brain, kidneys, lungs and immune system are at risk. Unborn babies and young children are even more susceptible to the negative health affects from mercury exposure that damage their developing nervous systems and consequently hinder their ability to learn and think.
When mercury is released into the air it enters many different ecosystems and levels of the food web. Aside from the immediate human health effects from mercury inhalation, mercury eventually settles, entering the soil and water resources. Once in the environment, mercury contamination compounds as it moves up the food chain, referred to as bioaccumulation, and negatively impacts many species of fish, birds, mammals and their habitats.
What's being done?
A huge step towards public health was taken in 1970 when the Clean Air Act was passed. The Clean Air Act regulates 188 hazardous air pollutants, including mercury, by ensuring that these pollutants stay within safe levels in the environment. The Clean Air Act has preserved the high quality of life that we all enjoy and prevented a countless number of premature deaths. Through continued adaptation and successful execution, the Clean Air Act has been able to lower emissions of toxic pollutants in our air even while industry production and human population has drastically increased. In an attempt to better protect public health and better regulate our increasing coal-based energy production, the EPA is proposing new Clean Air Act regulations on mercury and boiler rules. These new regulations would reduce the emissions of mercury, soot, sulfur, nitrogen oxides and smog into the environment as well as require proper treatment and disposal of mercury wastes. Unfortunately, the coal industry is working hard to try and prevent the EPA from passing stricter air quality standards that will benefit public health and the environment. Big coal falsely claims that stricter regulations will cost jobs and further cripple our economy. In fact, in 2010 alone, air pollution reduction as a result from the 1990 Clean Air Act amendments, has prevented 160,000 cases of premature mortality, 130,000 heart attacks, 13 million lost work days and 1.7 million asthma attacks. The new proposed clean air standards will limit mercury and other harmful pollutants from being released into the air and keep 91% of the mercury in coal from entering the environment resulting in added health and economic benefits. The EPA estimates that for every one dollar spent on pollution clean up, the country will reap forty dollars in economic benefits and five to thirteen dollars in health benefits.
The National Audubon Society supports EPA's efforts to protect public health while continuing to bolster the economy and preserving our environment and quality of life. The proposed Mercury and Air Toxics Rule is a critically important update to Clean Air Act standards and is an important public health safeguard that could prevent as many as 17,000 premature deaths and 11,000 heart attacks a year. It could also prevent 120,000 asthma attacks and about 11,000 cases of acute bronchitis among children annually.

Thanks for the report. I have not yet used hemp protein (I've tried
hemp milk). My understanding is it is complete protein, as is
whey protein. It is also probably no more expensive, if you're
limiting yourself to north-American produced products.
