"Project College Bound" Lands at Fisher
On Monday, October 28, 35 students from the Rochester Early College and International High School came to campus to participate in "Project College Bound," a program led by Dr. Jeff Liles, Associate Professor in the Ralph C. Wilson, Jr. School of Education.
This was the group's second visit to campus, with two more visits planned. The 9th and 10th graders spent the morning learning about the financial aid process, HEOP opportunities, multicultural and diversity events at Fisher, and college readiness.
As part of the project, students divided into groups and came up with a research question related to college readiness. They were specifically interested in questions about time management, the transition from high school to college, extracurricular activities, and academic skills. For one hour, faculty and staff volunteers rotated from group to group, answering the students' questions. Volunteers included: Fr. Bill Graff, Dr. Barb Lowe, Dr. Jim Wood, Dr. Ryan Thibodeau, Dr. Todd Sodano, Dr. Christine Boev, Jennifer Pluretti, Eileen Atwell, Carol Ziegler, and Dr. Pam Mapstone. Several Fisher students, including Kyle Barry, Danielle Juliano, Lyndsey White, Jennifer Keeler, and Jose Ramos, also participated in the exercise.
According to Liles, fewer than 50 percent of the students in the Rochester City School District graduate from high school in four years. And, of that number, the state reports that only five percent are "college ready." Liles said that the high school affords its students the opportunity to take college courses at Monroe Community College for high school and college credit.
"'Project College Bound' is designed to support the high school's mission and the students there who are interested in going to college. Research shows that programs like this help students academically while they are in high school and increases the odds that they will go to college and be successful. I am really hopeful that our program will have this impact," Liles said.
The project was supported by the Bank of America.

I thought that I was going to be able to see it at night, unfortunately, I was wrong. I would not recommend it to people who think this watch will illuminate at night.
Although my husband says the dial looks busy and the hour and minute hands obscure the second hand dial at times, he says the watch is just handsome. The color is a beautiful shade of bright green, the strap is nice silicone rubber and it keeps perfect time. The Hands and face markings have beautiful lume, contrary to other reviewers remarks that there is no lume on this or the orange version of this watch. My husband also owns the orange version of this watch and is just as happy with it as the green one. If you dont like the cluttered look of this style, Wenger makes one without the chronograph hands/dials.
for the money it cant be beat.It glows in the dark and the rubber dtrap is incredible
Great watch at a great price. My only complaint is that with the vibrant green color and all of the subdials, the actual hands blend in too easily. To tell the time, you need to look at the watch face closely. Other than the watch hands blending in, the watch is exactly as described and is a great deal on a Swiss Made watch, with outstanding quality.
So far I'm satisfied with the product. Too early to tell about the quality.
2 stars for a beautiful looking watch and weight. However, my biggest gripe is that it does not glow in the dark :( Also, the logo on the underside fell off after 3 days.

NATO Approves Deal for Afghan Transition
NATO leaders have approved a deal for a military transition in Afghanistan that would hand control to Afghan forces next year. Under the agreement, NATO would withdraw its combat troops by 2014 but leave thousands behind in a training and advisory role. President Obama hailed the deal as a way to bring the Afghan war to an end.
President Obama: "At the ISAF (International Security Assistance Force) meeting this morning, we agreed that Afghan forces will take the lead for combat operations next year in mid-2013. At that time, ISAF forces will have shifted from combat to a support role in all parts of the country. And this will mark a major step toward the goal we agreed to in Lisbon, completing the transition to Afghan lead for security by the end of 2014 so that Afghans can take responsibility for their own country and so our troops can come home."
NATO Fails to End Dispute on Pakistani Supply Line
Despite the agreement for Afghanistan, NATO leaders were unable to resolve the ongoing dispute on reopening Pakistani supply routes to NATO — a step seen as essential to an orderly withdrawal. Pakistan has shut down NATO supply lines over the U.S. refusal to apologize for a raid last year that mistakenly killed 24 Pakistani soldiers.
Anti-NATO Protesters Target Boeing, Obama Campaign HQ
Protesters wrapped up days of action around the NATO summit in Chicago on Monday with a march to the headquarters of the military contractor Boeing. Later in the day, demonstrators protested outside the headquarters of President Obama's re-election campaign.
Aaron Weiner: "I think, like a lot of people here, I feel a little betrayed. The whole 'hope and change' dialogue was so prominent in his campaign, and yet there's really been so little, and we're still seeing all of this money being spent on security, being spent on various wars, and it's just — there hasn't been that change that we were promised."
Attorneys for protesters in the week's largest march on Sunday say more than 60 people were arrested and more than two dozen were treated for wounds at the hands of police. Four police officers were also treated for injuries.
Official: Drone Standards Show "How Easy It Has Become to Kill Someone"
The Obama administration has confirmed new details of its process for authorizing drone strikes on suspected militants overseas. The Associated Press reports counterterrorism adviser John Brennan will have a greater role than previously disclosed, consulting with other agencies before ultimately making final recommendations to President Obama. One official said there remains concern over "how easy it has become to kill someone" under the administration's drone strike policy. The official says the United States has targeted alleged al-Qaeda operatives in lethal attacks for reasons including being heard in a conversation plotting an attack on a U.S. ambassador overseas. Had that conversation occurred in the United States, the suspect would normally be investigated instead of assassinated.
NATO Reaches $1.7 Billion Deal for New Drones
In other drone news, NATO has reached a deal with the military contractor Northrop Grumman for a $1.7 billion fleet of new drones. NATO's "Allied Ground Surveillance" system will use the drones and their accompanying command stations at sites around the world. NATO says it will spend additional billions on the system's operation.
Iraq Buys U.S. Drones to Monitor Oil Reserves
The United States has begun selling pilotless drones to Iraq to help monitor the country's oil reserves. Iraq says the drones will be used to protect its southern oil platforms from saboteurs.
Catholic Groups File Suit over Contraception Rule
Dozens of Catholic institutions have filed suit against the Obama administration over federal healthcare rules requiring employers to provide contraception coverage to employees. The University of Notre Dame, Catholic University of America and the Archdiocese of New York were among more than 40 groups to file lawsuits on Monday, saying the mandate violates their religious beliefs. The White House relaxed the contraception mandate following a backlash earlier this year, but the lawsuit says the changes do not go far enough. Twenty-eight states already have laws requiring insurers to cover birth control at the same levels of other medications.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission Chair Resigns After Clash with Industry
The chair of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Gregory Jaczko, has announced his resignation after a lengthy clash with the nuclear industry and his four industry-backed fellow panelists. Jaczko has consistently been in the minority on the five-person NRC board, opposing the Yucca Mountain nuclear waste dump in Nevada and calling for tougher regulation in the aftermath of Japan's Fukushima disaster. Earlier this year, Jaczko was the sole NRC member to vote against two new nuclear power reactors at Southern Nuclear's Vogtle site in Georgia, the first new reactors in the United States since 1978. In a statement on Monday, Jaczko said: "My responsibility and commitment to safety will continue to be my paramount priority after I leave the Commission and until my successor is confirmed."
Video Shows Israeli Soldiers Allowing Settlers to Shoot Palestinians
In Israel and the Occupied Territories, video has emerged of Israeli settlers shooting at Palestinians in the West Bank under the watch of Israeli soldiers. The video shows the armed settlers entering a Palestinian town from their nearby settlement. Palestinian youths are seen throwing rocks as the settlers approach from the hills. Shortly after an Israeli soldier enters the frame, the settlers shoot a Palestinian youth. At least two other soldiers were present on the scene, and none intervened to stop the settler shootings. The video was released by the Israeli human rights group B'Tselem. The Israeli military says it is investigating the incident.
Student Protests Continue in Quebec After Hundreds Arrested
Protests are continuing in the Canadian province of Quebec as students resist the government's effort to end a three-month student strike. On Monday, thousands of people marched in Montreal in the latest protest against an emergency law requiring demonstrators to inform police of any protest route involving 50 or more people and barring the wearing of masks at protests. The rally came one day after more than 300 people were arrested in a similar protest on Sunday.
Study: Half of People Falsely Convicted Are Black
New research shows half of people falsely convicted of serious crimes in the United States in recent decades are African American. An archive assembled by law school researchers at the University of Michigan and Northwestern University reveals more than 2,000 people who were falsely convicted of serious crimes have been exonerated in the past 23 years. Of the nearly 900 for whom detailed information is available, half are African American and more than 100 were facing death sentences. Excluded from the registry are more than 1,100 additional defendants whose convictions were discarded after it was revealed police officers fabricated crimes.
Rutgers Student Gets 30-Day Sentence in Gay Bullying Case
A former Rutgers University student has been sentenced to 30 days in prison for spying on a gay classmate who later took his own life. Tyler Clementi jumped to his death from a bridge in September 2010 after two classmates shared a videotape of him having sex with another man in his dorm room. The students had recorded Clementi's sexual encounter without his knowledge. He had just started his freshman year at Rutgers University. On Monday, Judge Glenn Berman sentenced one of the students, Dharun Ravi.
Glenn Berman: "There will be 300 hours of community service. This defendant will attend a counseling program relative to cyber-bullying and alternate lifestyles. There will be a $10,000 (U.S.) recessment paid over to the probation department. This, I hope, is the constructive part, though I doubt the defendant will see it that way. That sum will be allotted to a state-licensed or state-chartered community-based organization dedicated to providing assistance to victims of bias crimes."
Supreme Court to Hear Electronic Surveillance Case
The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to consider whether a group of human rights activists, journalists and lawyers have the legal right to challenge the U.S. government's sweeping use of electronic surveillance. The plaintiffs, represented by the American Civil Liberties Union, say they have reason to fear their phone calls with clients and sources overseas will be monitored. Among the plaintiffs are lawyers representing prisoners held at Guantánamo Bay. The case relates to the broadening of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act by Congress in 2008, which allowed U.S. officials to monitor communications in the United States if one person involved is abroad and the targets are foreigners believed to be outside the country.
States Support Montana Campaign Finance Law
Attorneys general from nearly half of U.S. states have come out in support of a Montana law limiting corporate spending on elections. The century-old state law was struck down following the Supreme Court's decision in Citizens United, which opened the floodgates for more corporate money for political campaigns. But the Montana Supreme Court later upheld the law. If the U.S. Supreme Court considers the case, it could change the way states are allowed to regulate corporate money in elections.

Facing the same problem! Anyone care to help?
Answer from: Ulfi
Hi! I did it today!
My Englsh is very bad and I dont know the names of the bricks, but I try to explain...
Get the teleport on the right. After falling in the black round hole, you will get to your start position.
Jump left in the left-shooter, pass the blue line and fall into the 4-way-shooter. Shoot south to deactivate the flash and get into the 4-way shooter again. Shoot north and fall on the up-shooter to get on the white/pink brick for 1 jump (the white brick on the right will be destroyed and the red/black brick fall down. Then destroy the white brick an do a double-touch to get to the old teleport position. You have to do this to the right side, so you get on the brick with the blue and red arrows (don't fall in the black round hole!) and move the black round hole to the right. Jump left to the other brick with the blue and red arrows to move the the brick, where you cant jump on it to the right. If you are fast enough, the red/black brick can fall on the brick on the bottom in the middle of the screen. Now jump through the black round hole to get on the start position again and jump in the 8-way-shooter. Shoot south-east and hold the rightjump. Then you can get all stars. But the last jump didn't work every time. Most times you get only three or four stars. I don't know why...
Good luck!

pumpsie I to do not desire permanent bans on anyone. With 2004Idiots if the BDC simply implemented Thread Creation to a max of 2-3 a day it would have served its purpose, along with suspending him every single time he re-loaded the same cut/past over and over again.
I would consider it a priveledge and a sort of sport to terminate any moniker that was pike's. I would do this for free if the BDC asked.
Over the years there have been very few "weirdos" if any at all on this forum... meaning no perverts, no profanity laden posters, and whatever. Those are the types you would want to do away with forever. It has been quite clean here from my point of view.
Honestly for someone who seemingly despises the forum as much as pike he sure spends a lot of time here... there must be some troll term out there for that.

of evidence—appear to provide a reasonably accurate description of the overall picture.
Fishing is an important source of food, recreation, community development, wealth, and cultural values in many countries. Although thousands of freshwater and marine fish and shellfish species are used globally, a relatively small number of these species provide the major fraction of the global marine catch. The 10 marine species that provided the greatest catch in 1993 accounted for 35 percent of the commercial marine catch (Figure 2-1, FAO 1996b) and the top 20 species accounted for 46 percent of the global marine catch. Marine fish production is shown in Figure 2-2 and total fish production in Figure 2-3. In addition to the animals mentioned, marine algae (seaweeds) are extensively harvested in many parts of the globe (Abbott and Norris 1985, Akatsuka 1990, Akatsuka 1994, Santelices 1989, Tseng 1984).
Recent estimates indicate that the global first-sale revenues from fishery products are approximately $U.S. 95 billion annually and that fishery products account for about 20 percent of the animal protein consumed by humans (FAO 1995b). Fisheries provide direct and indirect employment to about 200 million people worldwide (Garcia and Newton 1997). Fisheries are especially important in developing countries, which increased their proportion of global catch from about 40 to 65 percent from 1973 to 1993. The net value of fishery products exported from developing countries totaled $16 billion in 1994 (FAO 1997a), greater than the exports of coffee, bananas, rubber, tea, rice, and many other commodities that developing countries have traditionally relied on for foreign exchange (FAO 1997b).
Global marine fish production increased at an average rate of about 3.6 percent per year from 1950 to 1995, from about 18 million to about 91 million metric tons,2 including mariculture production (Figure 2-2, FAO 1997a). In the same period, the world's population increased from 2.5 billion to 5.7 billion people (U.S. Census Bureau 1998), an average annual increase of 1.8 percent. In 1995 total fish production (both freshwater and marine, both through culture and through fishing) was approximately 112 million t (Figure 2-3), of which marine landings accounted for approximately 84 million t. In 1996 the total production reached approximately 116 million t; the increase was due mainly to an increase in freshwater aquaculture production, mainly in China (FAO 1997c). The supply of fish and fish products for human consumption (including freshwater fish and aquaculture products) reached roughly 14 kg per person annually in 1995 (FAO 1997a). By 1995, mariculture accounted for 6.7 million t, 7.4 percent of the total global marine fish yield; freshwater aquaculture provided 14.6 million t (FAO

Once upon a time there was a little boy called Media, and he was given the job of telling all the people in his village what was happening each day.
One day he was bored, and no one was giving him shiny sixpences for telling them what was happening, so he ran into the village yelling "A beast is coming, a beast is coming!"
Well the villagers went around panicking and getting their weapons out and barring their doors, but the beast never turned up. Still, they were all grateful to the little boy for telling them and so they gave him lots of shiny sixpences and he went out and bought sweets, and ate them.
A few days later the boy was bored again, and his sixpences were all gone, so he say down and thought and then ran into the village again yelling "Earthquake! Earthquake!"
So the villagers did the same as before, making sure everything was safe and secure and waiting outside, and many of them nodded wisely at one another and said that they'd felt a little tremor. And they gave the boy some shiny sixpences for telling them, and he went out and bought sweets, and ate them.
This happened many more times, and the villagers eventually got fed up of the panic the boy kept on causing, and started to ignore him. Then one day the boy came running into the village, this time with a plan to make all the people listen to him and give him sixpences to buy sweets again. He yelled at the top of his voice "Fire! Fire!"
And the villagers ignore him.
And they all burned to a crisp.

Your search "saturated" resulted in 6 Articles
The Water WhispererThese photos, like the paintings by trees, involved having specific forces of nature act upon them and not just the natural gases and elements found in photo development liquids. Artist Matthew Brandt photographs lakes and reservoirs across the Sates and does something special to the developed serene scenes, tantamount to "giving back to nature".
Fuji Sensia 400 35mmIf you're someone who likes slightly stronger colors without unnatural color shifts, prefers some saturation in your photos and wants higher speed slide films...The Fuji Sensia 400 is your answer!
Fuji Provia 100F: My Favorite E6 Slide Film!Like many Lomographers, I started my Lomographic journey because I was amazed by the strong saturated colors of cross-processed slide films. When I felt ready to venture into slide films, I tried one of the most commonly found iso100 slide film, Fuji Provia100F. My verdict? Read on to find out more!

If I have a class inside a JAR (compiled with
mvn assembly:assembly) which I'm trying to profile, what's the command to get a valid core dump which I can use with jhat or the Eclipse Memory Analyzer?
I tried running this:
java -agentlib:hprof=heap=sites,cpu=samples,file=profile.hprof,format=b -jar the-jar.jar
and the core dump is created when I stop the process.
But neither jhat or the Eclipse Memory Analyzer recognize this as a valid dump.
jhat gives me this warning:
Resolving 0 objects...
WARNING: hprof file does not include java.lang.Class!
WARNING: hprof file does not include java.lang.String!
WARNING: hprof file does not include java.lang.ClassLoader!
Also reading through the hprof documentation, I see that I must pass the class name. How do I do that when it's inside the JAR?

You will find that people that suffer from Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes have to bank on insulin injections for the management and the treatment of their conditions. They also have to be concerned and aware on something that is known as syringe safety. This means when you are taking an insulin syringe, you must be aware of the syringe safety techniques to avoid mishaps and accidents.
When it comes to the re-use of insulin syringes, you will find that there are many diabetics that tend to re-use their syringes for the sake of saving money. This is a practice that is commonly accepted. However, it does come with some concerns that you should be aware about. It is true that the re-use of the syringe may help to keep your costs down but it is important for you to discuss the above with your doctor. He or she will help you decide if this is the best decision for you when it comes to safety and caution. On the other hand, if you are susceptible to infection or have a weak immune system, you may be advised not to re-use the insulin syringes.
The following are some of the things that you have to consider when you have decided to re-use the insulin syringe.
- When you are re-using the syringes for an extended period of time, you will find that the tip of the syringe needle tends to become blunt and this rather makes the injection very painful.
- If you have open sores, it is recommended that you do not reuse syringes. This is detrimental as if you do not pay heed, this can lead to infections as the needle ceases to be sterile.
- When you are using a syringe and a needle, it is very important for you to be aware and alert as to where the tip of the needle is all the time. You will find that it is simple to mishandle the syringe and permit it to penetrate into your skin over actually injecting the insulin. You should always keep the cap intact and in place till you are sure that you can inject the insulin.
- In an attempt to save money, you should never share your insulin syringe with another person. Here, you will face the risks of infection and contamination of bacteria and other adverse germs.
- There is also another issue when it comes to insulin syringes. Here people tend to clean the tip of the syringe with alcohol. This may look like a wise and reasonable practice but in reality you are actually removing the manufacturer coating from the needle. This coating is placed on the needle to permit it to pierce through the skin with ease.
- Last but not the least, when you are traveling with syringes, you should ensure that they are packed separately from clothing. You should also tend to keep them away from personal hygiene things you use so that they are not contaminated.

After my dad died, some 10 years ago now, I experienced a particular prolonged grief that dove into my physicality. The effects were challenging and compounded, and I learned in a definitive and profound way that my body could not be disconnected from my mind and my spirit. The grief was only indirectly connected to my father's passing; his passing was, however, catalytic to everything that followed. The wounding and the healing.
About three years into the quest for wholeness, I made a phone call to a health and wellness clinic. I had consulted with the physician a couple of times, but for the most part, it was the office staff that gave direction for on-going support. On my cordless telephone, sorting through some papers in my file cabinet, I shared my questions with the woman I usually spoke to. She listened patiently. Then she said not unkindly but firmly, "You know, Shannon, you're not the only one to have ever experienced this." It hurt me terribly. She was right. She was probably wise and discerning. I felt blood rush to my face, like the sting of a swift slap. I said a few more things, I said thank you. I hung up. That phone call changed the direction and the momentum of the healing process. With a new determination, I turned to face my crap and kick it into order, pile by pile. I didn't dial the clinic again.
That conversation comes back to me from time to time. It doesn't sting anymore. She said what needed to be said, what I needed to hear just then whether I wanted to hear it or not. It might not be what I would have said in the same situation, and it might not even have been completely necessary. She may have been speaking out of a place of her own pain and a struggle she was facing that day or in that season of her life. But she said something true, and that truth tells me things about walking through healing.
You can not know my pain and my struggles exactly. I can not know yours exactly. They are our own. The manner in which an arrow comes into your heart, mind, body is not the manner it enters mine, not exactly. In that way, I can not understand completely.
On the other hand, you have arrows that have struck you, and they pierced your skin, sometimes the very deepest places internally. Me, too. You are on a road to wellness and soundness. Me, too. You are a human who cries and laughs and longs for shalom. Me, too.
Our troubles and pains and heartaches are unique. Our stories belong to us. Jesus tends to each of us intimately and personally.
Those same bleeding places are not unique. Our stories are woven together by some strands; we are connected. At the very least, we share our humanity. We need each other to cry with and laugh with and pray with while we walk the road.
While I didn't need the counsel of the lady at the clinic any longer, I did need people to keep calling to the true things within me, things buried and forgotten, shattering things and glorious things. I surrounded myself with others who gave me words of life and pointed me to the Healer. They let me walk alongside them in the same fashion, and I was able to give back words of life and point them to Jesus. The wounds manifested in unexpected ways. So did the healing of my body, my mind, and my soul.

In 1997, Directorate-General Environment of the European Commission financed a study on the analysis of the existing situation regarding the decommissioning principles and policies in the Member States. The results of this study were officially published by the Commission services and were used as a basis for developing future thoughts and opinions on the subject. At the end of 1997, following contacts with officials of the Candidate Countries, we were able to extend the Commissions knowledge of the situation in those States. In early 1998, Terms of Reference were prepared in collaboration with the members of the Commissions Advisory Committee on Programme Management (ACPM) with the aim of preparing a Commission Communication on the subject.
A first step was to prepare a situation report and define best practice guidelines in the field. This report was prepared under the auspices of DG-Environment services with the active participation of eight guest experts coming from seven European Union "nuclear countries". The working group was composed of nuclear experts from regulatory bodies, radioactive waste management agencies and industrialists. We published the final report of this working group in the EUR series and it is also available on request by e-mail.
General background and existing EC Directives
Decommissioning is the final phase in the lifecycle of a nuclear installation and is to be considered part of a general strategy of environmental restoration after the final suspension of the industrial activities. At present, over 110 nuclear facilities within the Union are at various stages in the decommissioning process and it is forecast that at least a further 160 facilities will need to be decommissioned over the next 20 years (with the present 15 Member States). Enlargement of the Union would contribute to a rapid increase in the number of nuclear facilities to be decommissioned (at least 50 facilities). Since 1979, the European Commissions DG Research has conducted four successive five-year research and development programmes on the decommissioning of nuclear installations performed under cost-sharing contracts with organisations from the European Union. The main objective of these programmes was, and is, to establish a scientific and technological basis for the safe, socially acceptable and economically affordable decommissioning of obsolete nuclear installations. After almost 20 years of EU research and development activities on decommissioning, with the technology having reached industrial maturity, the time is ripe to review the related environmental and regulatory issues.
At the level of the European Union, four Council Directives have clear direct links with decommissioning activities.
The general guiding principles for "the protection of the health of workers and the general public against the dangers arising from ionising radiation" are established in Article 2b of the Euratom Treaty of 1957, leading to Chapter 3, and in particular Articles 30, 31, 32 and 37 thereof, and call for the establishment of Basic Safety Standards. These general guiding principles were originally formulated by the European Commission in 1959 and are regularly updated. The last version was published in Council Directive 96/29/EURATOM of 13 May 1996.
Another important document from the European Commission on radiation protection for the nuclear industry workers, applicable during decommissioning activities is "Council Directive 90/641 on the operational protection of outside workers". This Directive is of primary importance for the radiological protection of thousands of outside workers who will be involved in decommissioning activities at the European level.
Directive 85/337/EEC, amended by Directive 97/11/EC of 3 March 1997, on the assessment of the effect of certain public and private projects on the environment, in annex 1, describes the projects subject to the Directive. It includes the dismantling and decommissioning operations of nuclear power reactors.
Directive 96/92/EC of 19 December 1996, concerning common rules for the internal market in electricity, opens up, the European electricity market, for the first time, to competition, not only at the production level, but also at the supply level. The directive requires vertically integrated electricity companies to separate their accounts for production, transmission and distribution. The obligation for transparency in the accounts means that a clear overview has to be given regarding the decommissioning financial provisions and the estimated final costs as well as their influence on the final selling price of electricity.
The Terms of Reference for the expert working group
There are a large number of criteria to be considered in establishing a Community opinion on the decommissioning of nuclear facilities. Various regulatory, technical, financial and organisational aspects are closely intertwined in preparing a guiding framework. An analysis of the regulatory and organisational items relevant to decommissioning should be made in the form of an inventory of potential future EC and Member States actions. The guidelines will recommend some policies for the decommissioning of nuclear facilities, and will identify the relevant common base for the legislative aspects and will help Member States to gain experience from others.
The following list summarises some of the major elements which could potentially form the framework of the communication.
Based on existing national experience in the field of decommissioning, the preparation of a Commission communication for decommissioning will have to integrate numerous economic, health-related and legislative parameters. This integration will be possible in the perspective of sustainable industrial development also incorporating a respect for the environment. To this end, consultation of the various European socio-economic actors involved will be necessary in order to define more efficiently the terms governing a Commission recommendation.
Summaries of the expert working group
The items listed in this chapter are taken from the complete report3 published by the EC during spring 1999. This report reflects the opinion of the team of guest experts and does not necessarily reflect the views of the European Commission services.
European Commission conclusions
This expert report is considered as a valuable input to the Commissions work in the area. The Commission will carefully examine the experts recommendations and will, in particular, assess to what extent they can be included in its future communication on the subject.
"The main costs of nuclear power generation include capital investment, fuel, ongoing generation and maintenance costs, plus, and this is the main difference to other types of generation, the costs for nuclear waste storage and future dismantling costs. It is evident that the evaluation of these latter costs is rather complex. Depending on the valuation of these cost factors and the legal obligation to calculate provisions into the electricity prices, the resulting prices of nuclear sources have considerable bandwidth. Regarding liquidity, thus looking at generators from a cash flow perspective, the timing of the payments related to the costs is significantly different for nuclear electricity generation compared with other types of generation. A nuclear power generator has to make provisions for substantial future payments, namely the costs of nuclear waste storage and dismantling. With regard to its future financial obligations, the generator itself or a separate entity will seek to invest the cash surplus which is collected through provisions or other levies. Thus, nuclear generators can be seen as trustees for funds to cover future decommissioning costs. Since electricity generators have to compete with each other as of 19 February 1999, diverging regulatory approaches to the management of decommissioning funds may cause substantial market distortions."
"The electricity directive 96/92/EC opens for the first time competition in the European electricity market, not only at the production level, but also at the supply level. The need for transparency in the electricity-producing companies accounts foresees a clear need for a full integration of the end of life decommissioning costs."
"Different situations exist among the Member States for the financing of decommissioning, e.g. simple provision in the accounts of the electricity companies allowing reinvestment of the collected funds for other than decommissioning purposes, segregation of collected funds outside the sphere of the company, or a complete State organisation and management of decommissioning by separate specialised, mostly publicly owned companies. Moreover, the amount of yearly funding required, the requirements as to when and how decommissioning has to be accomplished and the applied calculation methods and discount rates differ substantially between Member States. This situation questions the principles quoted above and could lead to distortion and discrimination between the new competing nuclear electricity producers from different Member States. Decommissioning costs are clearly seen as part of the electricity production costs. They may not be cross-subsidised from the transmission activity nor be directly subsidised via state aid to the extent that they are incompatible with the EU Treaty."
"Provided that financial provisions have been built up throughout the operating life of a nuclear facility, the costs per kWh should be relatively low and should not significantly influence electricity charges or lead to unfair competition between producers."
"The steps to be taken in determining financing requirements include identifying the decommissioning strategy to be applied and preparing detailed costs estimates that include appropriate risk margins. Sound decommissioning financing will also increase the public acceptance of the potential legacy to the future generations. The benefit of this approach is to ensure that money is available when immediate decommissioning occurs, and that financial burdens and risks are not imposed on future generations should any decommissioning activities be deferred to a later date."
"If appropriate financial provisions have not been built up over time, there is a potential risk that producers could choose to elect the cheapest decommissioning strategy rather than make a balanced judgement on all the relevant factors, e.g. safety and environmental issues."
EC suggested approach
"It has to be emphasised that most of these principles can be derived either from the unbundling requirements of the electricity directive or from the competition rules of the EC Treaty. Nevertheless, due to the specific aspects of decommissioning and the importance for the level playing field in the European electricity market, a harmonised approach could be beneficial."
3. The European Commission opinion on the Environmental Impact Assessment
Council Directive 97/11/EC7 of 3 March 1997 on the Environmental Impact Assessment, annex 1, describes the projects subject to the Directive. It includes dismantling and decommissioning operations for nuclear power reactors. However, while the general requirements are set out in the Directive, the detailed requirements could vary from state to state. Formally, the Directives set out the broad principles of the environmental assessment system to be put in place by the Member States. At first sight, the existing decommissioning plans, in most of the countries inside and outside the EU, focus only on radiological impact assessments rather than the wider Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) covered by the Directives.
The final destination of a nuclear installation being part of a global environmental restoration strategy it is an important matter for the public. The general public is concerned over what will happen to the waste and over potentially extended time-scales for decommissioning. In addition, there is concern about leaving our wastes to future generations. Even if the existing regulations and practices used during decommissioning protect workers and the general public, the public still needs to be informed on the measures taken. Decommissioning operations and the related strategy decisions should be done with transparency, involve the public and be open to their concerns.

Building Relationships and Empowering our Community
Over the past 40 years, access to the legal profession has broadened significantly resulting in an exponential increase in the number of African-American women attorneys in the greater New York area. At the same time, the variety of areas in which we practice law has also expanded greatly. Accordingly, we face the challenge of continuing to give a sense of community and common purpose to our members. We need to reaffirm our commitment to supporting and promoting the talents and skills of African-American women attorneys. As captured by the leadership principle, "Vision Leaks!", if we do not work to recommit ourselves to our goals, the mission will be forgotten. We need to rediscover where we can, with limited resources, really make a difference.
ABWA is up to this challenge. Our members present a professionally diverse body that has a unique unifying combination of characteristics: our gender, our ethnicity and our professional training and experience.

The Stellar Guild
|It has been suggested that this article be merged into Phoenix Pick. (Discuss) Proposed since August 2013.
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (September 2014)
The Stellar Guild series is a series published by Phoenix Pick, the science fiction and fantasy imprint of Arc Manor Publishers. Mike Resnick is the series editor.
Each book in the series pairs an established (normally best-selling) author with a newer or less well known author of the veteran author's choice.
The series was announced in July 2011 with the first book expected to be published by the fall of that year. The first pairing features Kevin J. Anderson with Steven Savile. Each is contributing a new story specifically written for the series.
Kevin J. Anderson has over 23 million copies of his books in print with over 45 bestsellers.
Additional authors to sign on to the project are bestselling fantasy author Mercedes Lackey and Eric Flint. Eric Flint is the original author of 1632 (see 1632 novel) which spawned a whole series and community based on the alternate history created in the original book.
The series aims to help introduce lesser known authors to a wider audience by pairing them up with bestsellers who have an established fan base. It also provides newer writers another much needed venue to sell their short fiction (novelette length) at SFWA approved rates.
The first book in the series (Tau Ceti) was released on November 22, 2011. It is a 'team-up' between Kevin J. Anderson and Steven Savile, each writing a complementary story set in the same universe.
Tau Ceti tells the story of The Beacon, a generation ship launched from an Earth tearing itself apart from its exhaustive demand for resources and aimed at Sarbras, a habitable planet circling Tau Ceti.
Tau Ceti was followed by the second book in the series, Reboots, a 'team-up' between New York Times Bestselling author Mercedes Lackey and Cody Martin, released on December 10, 2011. Reboots is a very different book from the first book of the series which is a hard science fiction book. Reboots deals with a mixed crew consisting of zombies, werewolves and vampires in the closed confines of a spacecraft.[1]
Phoenix Pick announced in January 2012 that Harry Turtledove and Robert Silverberg had been signed on to the project. Both are bestselling authors and Robert Silverberg has been designated as a Grand Master of Science Fiction by SFWA.
Books in the Series[edit]
- Tau Ceti by Kevin J. Anderson & Steven Savile[2]
- Reboots by Mercedes Lackey & Cody Martin[2]
- On the Train by Harry Turtledove & Rachel Turtledove[2]

I have been working at WilsonHCG full-time (more than an year)Pros
One of the biggest pros to working at WilsonHCG is the ability to work-from-home and to have an incredibly flexible work schedule. As a virtual employee, I have never felt like an "outsider"-employee engagement is very high and is constantly being improved. Everyone is part of a team at WilsonHCG and we are all truly in it together. The internal growth opportunities are tremendous and if anyone ever has an idea for an improvement or change in process, their ideas are always heard. It is definitely a great organization for recent grads to also get involved with.Cons
Maybe organize a few more initiatives for employees to connect with other employees across the globe!Advice to ManagementAdvice
Keep up the great work. I am confident WilsonHCG is headed in a very positive direction.RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEO
