"The academic quality of Trine is astounding, you have teachers who work with you side by side to ensure you get more of a hands–on experience with your learning. It really is reassuring when they are there to help and watch you succeed through all of your experiences here at Trine."
Megan Brazier, Civil Engineering major
Design. Invent. Build.
Change the way society operates. That's how engineers approach the world.At Allen School of Engineering and Technology, we teach you the engineering skills you need to explore and discover innovative solutions for today's complex problems. As a leader in the rapidly changing field of science and technology, you'll need practical expertise focusing on technical, intellectual, and interpersonal skills. That's what we do. It's a Trine Thing. And that's why 92 percent of our engineering graduates find jobs in their fields within six months of graduation.
You will work one-on-one with top-notch professors who've earned advanced degrees from MIT, Yale, Princeton, Notre Dame, Virginia Tech and Georgia Tech. Eighty-five percent of Trine's engineering faculty have doctorates and one-third are registered professional engineers. There are no teaching assistants, and our average class size is 16 students, ensuring you'll interact with faculty and peers in a stimulating learning environment.
The following engineering programs are available:

- Electrical
- Mechanical
- Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology offered through the School of Professional Studies (adult students)
- Master of Engineering with a major in Civil Engineering
Engineering at Trine means performing actual engineering work. Students develop and apply new technologies such as micro-scale cooling of computer chips; semi-conducting materials for thin film transistors; metallic recovery from scrap; hydrogen production from industrial waste; and instruments for use in orthopedic surgery. Student groups participate in regional and national competitions, building anything from fire-fighting robots to off-road racing and utility vehicles.
Trine engineering graduates enter the workforce better prepared than their colleagues from other engineering schools. Why? The practical skills and experiences they've gained through their senior design projects, the hands-on nature of our laboratories, and internships and co-ops have earned Trine graduates the reputation of being work-ready. Trine engineering graduates are highly sought by industry and earn starting salaries above the national average.
Our five-year engineering program requires five academic years of study and one additional summer. Upon completion, you'll earn a bachelor of science degree in either civil or mechanical engineering and a master of engineering degree. Our one-year master's of engineering degree is for students who've already completed their undergraduate degree in engineering.
College of Engineering and Business
In 2015, Trine University announced the creation of the College of Engineering and Business in a nod toward today's collaboration between professional engineers and business leaders. The Allen School of Engineering and Technology and the Ketner School of Business were moved under the College of Engineering and Business. Students were not effected by this change and will benefit from the enhanced collaboration between the programs.
Trine's programs in chemical, civil, electrical, computer and mechanical engineering are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET,111 Market Place, Suite 1050, Baltimore, MD 21202-4012, telephone (410) 347-7700.

Queen Anne's County Police in Schools
By Don Rush
CENTREVILLE, Md. (AP) - Police are doing extra patrols around schools in Queen Anne's County.
The Capital of Annapolis reports that officers with the Queen Anne's County Office of the Sheriff and the Centreville Police Department will continue the increased patrols this week. The patrols started after last month's shooting at a school in Newtown, Conn.
A Sheriff's Office spokesman says police presence isn't a response to any specific rumors or threats.

The Roskilde's Beautiful Geodesic Dome Looks Like a Tortoise in a Field
Posted By Helen Morgan On January 30, 2012 @ 5:02 pm In Architecture,gallery | No Comments
Within the wooden dome the space seems cavernous and airy, and we don't doubt that is was a great place to take a time out from the throngs of crowds.
Photos of the dome being built give a good idea of how the intersecting shapes were connected, and the team also have a pretty cool video of the whole construction process here [8]. Hopefully this fantastic project arises again at a future festival and we can follow its path of reuse!

6 Filmmaking Tips from Kimberly Peirce
Features By Scott Beggs on October 18, 2013 | Be the First To CommentIt's a shame that Kimberly Peirce has only made three feature films in 14 years. Boys Don't Cry was a stunner of a debut, announcing a bold new talent to keep tabs on. Stop-Loss wasn't quite as strong but it was still absolutely powerful enough to make her a sophomore with a bright future. For whatever reason, that future dimmed, but with Carrie coming out this weekend, it hopefully puts Peirce back on track to be artistically in our lives far more often. After all, it was her name that provided a much-needed legitimacy to a remake no one was asking for (of a De Palma film no less) and the optimism that the story could tackle difficult interpersonal drama underneath all the blood-drenched screaming. It's fantastic to have her back, so here's a bit of free film school (for fans and filmmakers alike) from a director who has been away too long.
Good Remake News: Kimberly Peirce May Be the One to Remake 'Carrie'
In Development By Jack Giroux on January 4, 2012 | Comments (3)We've all heard the grumblings and complaints over the prospect of a new remake of Brian De Palma's adaptation of Carrie. What's to care about with this remake? We've already got a pretty perfect adaptation. But now some of us can care, with the news that Kimberly Peirce could possibly be at the helm. Peirce is both an odd and kind of perfect choice for this project. Her acclaimed Boys Don't Cry and lesser acclaimed but still pretty good Stop-Loss are both what one could call psychological horror movies, and Carrie very much is that. Peirce seems adept crafting films that chronicle young people going through a tough time, so she makes for an oddly suitable fit, really. MGM and Screen Gems are supposedly interested in a "gritty" take, despite the story involving a girl using psychic powers. Peirce, clearly being a lover of making all things gritty and realistic, could probably give them the realism they (oddly) want. Deadline Hermon is currently reporting she's "in talks" to direct, and I certainly hope that deal goes through.

Manatee County Commissioners have their hands full again creating a balanced budget in the fifth year of declining revenues from falling property values and a struggling economy.
Some of this is their own doing by allowing county government to bloat trying to meet everyone's needs and wants while providing such generous employee benefits packages not seen in the private sector. Part, of course, is because of their control as the county operates in a national and global economy and there was little any single county could do to stem the housing collapse.
But the commissioners' job has been made much harder by Sheriff Brad Steube's request for a 4.4% bump in spending to give a 3% raise to all of his employees and to hire another 10 deputies and 10 corrections officers.
Here is the background. The Manatee County Property Appraiser just released estimates that the county taxable property value fell another $1.2 billion this past year, meaning a revenue gap from the current budget of about $16 million. Tax increases are not an option, so Manatee County Administrator Ed Hunzeker is looking at a combination of spending cuts and drawing down reserves.
This comes after the county has cut about $130 million since 2007, and new county projections show that continuing property valuation declines will mean the county will be cutting more again in 2013.
Some of Hunzeker's proposed cuts include:
• Reducing the central library weekly hours from 56 to 48 to cut three staff positions.
• Eliminating 54 county positions largely due to decreased demand for services.
• Privatizing the operations at the two county-run golf courses.
• Funding the Longboat Key trolley service at $200,000 because of an agreement with the town of Longboat Key and Sarasota County. (This is a luxury none of the three municipalities can afford.)
Into this context comes Steube's request for a sizable increase in spending. Now, we are not at all opposed to law enforcement getting better pay while perhaps bureaucrats whose primary function is to bury progress under an avalanche of paperwork get less. The thin blue and green lines that maintain civilization at the edges are treasured.
But we question whether this is the time for such a spending move. None of the other county employees will be getting a 3% raise and all have been on the same salary for the past four years. Hunzeker is proposing a one-time $1,000 bonus for all employees. It is designed to show appreciation, help with the state-required payments into the retirement system and does so without increasing the base salary.
County employees overall are budgeted at the same pay for the fifth straight year. Further, the Sheriff's Office got 16 new positions in 2011 and an additional $1.6 million while the rest of county government shrank.
Steube is planning to cut five school resource officers, which we said previously seems like a wise restructuring of priorities. Surely he can find more such opportunities.
When Hunzeker proposed his budget last week, it included a $500,000 cut to the sheriff's budget. We are aware that there is some positioning that goes on between county staff and constitutional officers such as the Sheriff, Clerk of Court, Property Appraiser, Supervisor of Elections and Tax Collector. And this could be that.
But Steube is willing to play hardball to get his employees more money this year.
When Hunzeker gave his budget proposal to the County Commission, the only comment that Steube had was to ask that the June 16 budget workshop that includes his department be televised and be held in the commission chambers to accommodate the large number of people that would be attending.
Obviously, Steube intends to pack the room with supporters, the most of whom are likely to be sheriff employees who stand to financially benefit from the sheriff's proposal. Apparently, he has learned from watching the tactics teacher unions employ using their large number of employees to apply pressure to elected officials and playing on the public's emotions.
The county commission has the annual balancing act here. They may decide that tipping the financial scale toward law enforcement is the right choice. But we hope they decide it from a rational, good policy perspective and not based on how many people show up at a meeting with their arms folded angrily.

- It's a shame when some of our county employees feel that their need is greater than others. Do they have any empathy for their county employers who have lost their homes and jobs? Do they empathize that the rest of the county employees have less than they? I don't think so, this is another example of I'll get mine no matter what.
- 2.
- I am the Vice President of Tea Party Manatee, and we are very upset that Sheriff Steube hasn't gotten the message: "STOP SPENDING and START CUTTING". As every Dept. of County Government cuts back due to the hard economic times, Steube demands a $4 Million increase!!!
Our County Commissioners understand that hard choices in spending need to be made yet Steube wants to build his Empire on the backs of every other Govt. Dept. and the Taxpayers He did the same thing last year.
Taxpayers need to call the County Commissioners to tell them that the Sheriff needs to get the message loud and clear this time: "STOP SPENDING and START CUTTING".

10 Best Cars For Spring Sightseeing
2012 Mini Cooper Convertible
Starting price: $25,650
Top: Automatic soft-top convertible
MPG: 27 city, 35 highway, 30 combined
The sweet drop-top is a nice touch, but this 1.6-liter, 121-horsepower little dynamo didn't get its fun reputation just by sitting there and looking pretty.
The Mini convertible comes loaded with its Mini Connected entertainment center featuring a 6.5-inch high-definition display, Apple (AAPL)-designed Bluetooth interface and app for smartphone and iTunes connectivity and optional GPS. While's it's also hooked up with Sirius satellite radio, Pandora (P) and HD radio, the most indulgent item built into the dash is an Openometer whose sole purpose is to count the number of minutes or hours your convertible top is down during your trip.
The Mini's wide stance, stability control and surprising speediness for a car its size make it an "absolute joy" for Kelley Blue Book's team, but distractions such as the open top, broad color palette, surrounding airbags and cockpit-style dashboard are what make up for the paltry six cubic feet of cargo space in the trunk.
"This is a Mini, so don't expect loads of cargo room," Edmunds.com's Clarke says. "If you're fine with that, what you get is a quick little drop-top that offers razor-sharp handling and excellent fuel economy."Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Size? x Reebok Ventilator "Re-Upholstered" by Patrick Johnson 0 Comments
April 11, 2012 BY Aaron Hope / 3
Of the six leather vintage Blazers Nike Sportswear has released over the past three-plus years, British sneaker suppliers Size? are responsible for two-thirds. Their slice of the pie grows a bit larger today with word of another exclusive colorway, this time on the Nike Blazer Low VNTG silhouette. These are basically a chopped-down version of the HO09 drop that also paired Sail and black. And just as their height is shorter, so is the supply, but as of right now this old school take on early 2012's signature colorway is available at Size?

Philips Arena, Atlanta, GA
ATLANTA -- Dwyane Wade didn't call "bank."
No need. This was the playoffs, not H-O-R-S-E.
Fast Facts
• The Heat improved to 18-1 when Wade scores 30-plus points in a playoff game and his six 3-pointers doubled his previous playoff high and matched his regular-season career high.
• Overall, the Heat hit a team playoff record 15 3-pointers after shooting just 4-for-23 from deep in their Game 1 loss.
• It was the Heat's first playoff victory since winning Game 6 of the 2006 NBA Finals over the Mavericks.
• The loss snapped the Hawks' four-game home win streak in playoff games and ended the Heat's five-game playoff losing streak.
-- ESPN Stats & Information
With 13 straight points to close the first half and an unlikely 3-pointer off the backboard in the waning minutes, Wade showed it's hard to keep him down two games in a row. He scored 33 points in all, leading the Miami Heat to a 108-93 victory over the Atlanta Hawks that evened their playoff series at one game apiece Wednesday night.
"This is where amazing happens," Wade said.
Amazing, indeed. Remember how bad Wade and his Miami teammates looked in a 90-64 loss to open the playoffs? They were that good in Game 2.
Wade already had more points by halftime than he had in Game 1, when he was held to 19 points and turned it over eight times. Only once during the regular season was he held to less that 20 points in consecutive games, and he wasn't about to do it again in the playoffs.
This was vintage D-Wade -- 6-of-10 from 3-point range, 11-of-20 overall, five rebounds, seven assists, two blocked shots and a steal.
2009 NBA Playoffs
Want an in-depth look at the playoffs? Check out all the matchups, analysis and opinion here:
• Playoff pagesWade was locked in for this one, and the Hawks didn't stand a chance.
"He set the tone," Miami coach Erik Spoelstra said. "Before I came out to talk to the team, right before the game, there was some joking and laughing in the locker room and I heard him tell everybody to shut up and get their minds on the game."
After trailing by as many as 18, the Hawks twice closed within five points in the fourth quarter -- but never got over the hump. Wade delivered the decisive blow when, with the shot clock running down, he threw up a long 3. The shot was errant, but it banked in off the backboard and was just as good as a swish.
"I didn't call 'bank,'" Wade quipped. "Just like everybody in the building, I'm not going to tell a story, I was shocked, too."
The improbable shot pushed the Heat to a 101-91 lead, and the Hawks were done.
The crowd started heading for the exits, except for a handful of Miami fans who hung around to serenade Wade with chants of "M-V-3!" When the horn sounded, Wade went over and shook hands with Atlanta rap star T.I., sitting at courtside as he waits to begin his yearlong sentence for weapons charges.
"I've been feeling it coming, feeling it coming," Wade said. "I didn't see nothing but the basket, and it was getting bigger and bigger."
The Hawks should have known this wouldn't be their night when "Spirit," an actual hawk that flies down from the rafters during the pre-game introductions, decided to hang around for the start of the game. The game had to be halted for a couple of minutes when the fierce-looking bird landed on the top of the backboard; he finally flew to his handler and was led out of the building.
The players weren't to eager to play the game with a bird of prey staring down at them. Atlanta's Josh Smith and Al Horford looked more shaken than anyone.
"You see Al Horford duck and run, I was like, 'Let me run for cover as well,'" Wade said. "It was kind of weird having the hawk fly around. It's hard to play with your back to that hawk on the backboard."
Turns out, the real hawk showed more aggressiveness than any of the players wearing Hawks across the front of their jerseys until the fourth quarter, when Atlanta finally came to life.
"We didn't start the game with a sense of urgency, like the start of the first game," Smith said. "We didn't play together. Put those two negatives together, and that's what caused us to lose. We were playing selfish on offense."
Unlike the loss in Game 1, when only one other Miami player scored in double figures, Wade had plenty of help this time. Daequan Cook scored 20 points, going 6-of-9 from 3-point range to make up for an 0-for-5 showing beyond the arc on Sunday night. Jermaine O'Neal scored 19 points, giving the Heat a presence on the inside. Michael Beasley added 12 and Udonis Haslem 10.
Miami's reserves outscored the Hawks' bench 37-20. Atlanta coach Mike Woodson pointed to that more than Wade, who, after all, led the NBA in scoring at 30.2 points a game.
"He made some shots tonight, but I don't think that was the killer factor," Woodson said. "We let their bench play a major role."
Mike Bibby led the Hawks with 18 points, but the home team shot only 44 percent from the field and struggled at the foul line, making 19-of-30.
The Hawks, who made home-court advantage their No. 1 goal coming into the season, will now have to do something they couldn't do a year ago: win a playoff game on the road. Atlanta surprised eventual champion Boston by extending the Celtics to seven games but lost four blowouts in Beantown.
If that trends continues, the Heat will be moving on to the second round. Game 3 is Saturday in Miami.
Led by Wade, Miami began to pull away in the second quarter. He capped his 13-point spurt with three straight 3-pointers, giving him 21 points -- more than he had in all of Game 1 -- heading to the locker room.
The Hawks tried to guard the Miami star with several players. None had much success.
Joe Johnson picked up his fourth foul early in the third quarter and had to sit the rest of the period. Flip Murray might as well have thrown up a white towel. Maurice Evans wasn't much better, shaking his head in disbelief at one point when Wade swished another jumper.
Led by the high-flying Smith, Atlanta ran the Heat out of the building in Game 1. The Heat was held to a season low for points as the Hawks equaled a franchise record for fewest points allowed in a playoff game.
But, after two exhaustive days of practices, meetings and film sessions, Miami looked like a much different team. The Heat played with much more effort, started hitting some shots and established a half-court game that worked much better than trying to run with the Hawks. Miami also crashed the boards, outrebounding the Hawks 40-33 after getting hammered in the opener, 50-35.
The visitors frustrated Smith, who had a couple of dunks but was held to 17 points. They held Johnson, Atlanta's leading scorer, to 16 points on 5-of-13 shooting.
Miami was on the verge of a blowout, but the Hawks closed the third quarter on a 7-0 run. Murray had a steal and layup, then hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer after a nifty bit of passing left him open outside the arc.
The arena was in a frenzy when Hawks closed to 94-89 on Murray's three-point play, and Smith scored on a drive to make it 96-91. After Haslem hit a jumper to push the lead back to seven, the Hawks came up empty on three straight possessions.
Finally, Wade had seen enough. His ricochet 3 ended any thoughts of a comeback.
Game notes
Both teams stuck with the same lineups and 12-man rosters they used in Game 1. Randolph Morris, Thomas Gardner and the injured Acie Law sat out for the Hawks, while Miami deactivated Mark Blount, Luther Head and Dorell Wright. ... The crowd of 19,146 was Atlanta's fifth straight playoff sellout at Philips Arena and 14th full house of the season. ... Wade's career playoff high is 43 points.

Reviewed Brick Chicken with Apricot Couscous
Dec 23, 2012 in Food Network Community Toolbox on FoodNetwork.com
"Terrific marinade. Didn't make the couscous or dip nor did I use the brick. I made the marinade and added some OJ. Just grilled the chicken on an outdoor gas grill skin down and finished in the oven. Juicy, flavorful, and succulent. I did marinate for over a day which was probably key. Serve with thin sliced lemons and some fresh parsley on""

text: The Night Shift wiki last edited by wildvine on 01/26/14 02:29PM View full history Straight from the Dark Reign comes…The Hood! What the cloaked criminal wants, he gets—and he's after the zombie virus to wipe out the heroes once and for all! But standing in his way are the Midnight Sons—and they're not heroes…they're monsters! For the first time in many years, The Hood and his super-villain syndicate know fear...but where Parker Robinson goes, can the dread Dormammu be far behind? The awful answers are supplied by Fred Van Lente and Kev Walker, the team that CBR.com praised for, "taking the MARVEL ZOMBIES franchise in a brand new, invigorating direction!"Story Opens with Jennifer Kale doing a video testament for her friend and fellow witch, Topaz. She tells her she wants to prove her self as a trusted member of the Midnight Sons. She tells her how after the attack by the zombie Siege, she went into a catatonic shock. She was later found by Morbius and she instead that she wanted to help the Midnight Sons fight the new zombie threat. She then tells her is she doesnt make it out alive then she is giving Topaz the Tome of Zhered-Na. And to be strong unlike she was.Back in Taino in the West Indies the ship of zombified men-fish almost make it to shore but right before it can reach land, the ship blows up in a massive ball of fire. Jennifer Kale teleports Morbius and Werewolf of the ship before the explosion, while Hellstorm who caused the explosion survives the flames. Morbius yells at Hellstorm claiming that there might have been survivors on the ship while Hellstorm doesn't seem think of it. Jennifer stps the fight and her powers find where Deadpool and Simon Garth have gone.Meanwhile in New York City, in Hells Kitchen, the Hood makes his plans to get the zombie virus from Black Talon, however, three of his gang members Crossfire, Centurious, an Mandrill are trying to convince him not to take the virus due to the fact that it destroyed the alternate universe. It soon turns out that Dormammu is telling the Hood on the other side that he wants the virus. Hood tells the gang that they will rise the price of the virus before Dr. Doom or Maggia cant take the virus. The Hood's gang tries to reason with him but Hood ends up winning, he and the Night Shift then take off to Taino to counter Black Talon.Back on Taino in Black Talon's Plantation, Deadpool is locked in a bird cage and Simon Garth is chained in Black Talon's Dungeon. On the plantation, Black Talon meets The Hood who has the Night Shift accompanying him. They are about to make the deal until Dormammu warns Hood that the Midnight Sons are in the area. Hood and the Night Shift leave the meeting.Moments later the Midnight Sons show up in a cemetery with many open graves. All of a sudden Morbius gets crushed in the face by Digger's shovel. Tatterdemalion then jumps Werewolf from behind and scorches his skin.Needle then stabs Hellstorm in the chest with his electric needle with the Hood behind him. Jennifer tries to fight Dansen Macabre but her spells don't work on her. Digger then tries to bury Morbius alive but he springs back up do to blood touching his lips making him strong with his bloodlust. He springs from the grave and stabs Diger in the head with his own shovel followed by Werewolf slashing his chest. Hellstorm burns the needle out of his heart and the torches Tatterdemalion while Jennifer blasts a spell at Needle knocking him down while Morbius then attacks Dansen and bits her in the neck taking her blood.Back in the dungeon, Deadpool manages to bit one of the guards hand while still in the cage turning the guard into a zombie and bitting the other guard. At that moment Deadpool and Simon Girth manage to escape.Back outside, a group of zombie o out to attack both teams. Morbius then manages to use his vaccine gun on them. The zombies blow up but a green mist comes out of there bodies and kills the Night Shift. It turns out the vaccine makes the zombie virus air born. As Jennifer freaks out she is all of a sudden in the presence of Dormammu who offers her power if he comes with her.

This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, dose-escalating, placebo-controlled study is evaluating the safety, tolerability, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of a single dose of Adlea administered via injection following surgical closure of the wound. The trial is designed to enroll 74 patients.
Anesiva announced approval of its investigational new drug application for Adlea in South Korea in June 2008.
How Adlea May Address the Need for Long-Duration, Well-Tolerated Pain Relief
Adlea is a long-acting, non-opioid drug with the potential to provide pain relief for weeks to months after a single localized treatment. Its novel mechanism of action results in site-specific analgesia, which has the potential to reduce the use of and minimize the side effects associated with systemically administered analgesic drugs, such as opioids and NSAIDs.
Adlea is a highly purified form of capsaicin (derived from chili peppers) that acts primarily on C-fiber neurons, which transmit long-term pain, by binding to and desensitizing the TRPV1 pain receptors. This leads to a prolonged, reversible and localized desensitization of the pain fibers. The drug generally has a short half-life of 1 to 2 hours, and is undetectable in the blood after 24 hours.
Adlea's short duration of systemic exposure relative to the longer duration of analgesia may offer a safe, additive treatment option in the management of post-surgical orthopedic pain, as well as pain due to moderate to severe osteoarthritis. In clinical trials to date, adverse events have been similar in patients receiving Adlea or placebo.

other question, since I live with my parents still (Im only 15) and since my mother works second shift and dad is getting lazier as he gets older, we do simple things like tacos or spaghetti or fast food or other easy things that are mostly not the healthiest, wat do (I am also a type 1 diabetic)

same as the above. just count your calories, and exercise frequently. make sure you drink a **** ton of water to aid in digestion, and take a multivitamin that makes sure you get enough minerals and **** . eventually it will become a habit.
also spaghetti is a good source of carbs for energy
good luck

In the latest edition of its popular TECHtalks series, Qatar Science & Technology Park (QSTP), part of Qatar Foundation Research and Development (QF R&D), recently hosted Mr Abdulsattar M. Al Rasheed, Chief Executive Officer for RAF, Qatar Electricity and Water Company, to discuss water management and Water security challenges currently facing Qatar and the Arabian Peninsula. He was joined at the two hour talk by a panel of distinguished research experts; Dr Adel Sharif, Research Director of Qatar Energy and Environment Research Institute (QEERI) and Dr Mohamed Shamrukh Mahmoud, Expert in Water Resources at Qatar's Ministry of Environment.
With a Bachelor Degree in Mechanical Engineering from California State University Sacramento, Abdulsattar Al Rasheed is also an active member of the American Society of Engineers. He has worked on several key issues like defining water quality and outlining the technical complexities of desalination, he has delivered an in-depth history of the worsening water challenges Qatar and the region face and proposed several clear steps to combat these challenges and reverse unsustainable trends.
Focusing in several instances on the value of innovative technologies in fixing the problem at hand, the steps listed include: building a secure regional network of desalination plants and fresh water reservoirs; Optimizing the amount of water spent on local agriculture; collaborative investment in water production; promoting initiatives like Kahramaa's Tarsheed program to encourage sustainable consumption behaviour and raise awareness about conservation of water; and exploring renewable water production options to ensure sustainable and reliable sources.
Having served in the water and power industries for 32 years, Al Rasheed is widely published on the topics of power and desalination plant management. He is currently a member of the Bahrain-based Water Science & Technology Association and GCC CIGRI – a group of GCC Engineers based in Saudi Arabia. He pointed out that Qatar faces a unique set of challenges with respect to water scarcity, due to a shortage of reliable surface and fresh water sources.
According to Qatar's inter-ministerial Permanent Population Committee (PPC), Qatari residents currently consume 675 litres of water per capita per day – approximately twice the average consumption in the European Union (EU). Given that Qatar's population is expected to increase nearly eightfold by 2050, the demand for water is likely to increase significantly.
"The quality of life of future generations rests on how we manage these key resources and what habits or mechanisms we implement today. Quality water is quickly becoming a scarce resource and unless we realize the perils of inaction today, it may be too late to recover. Already the impact of water shortages has been felt in many parts of the world and technology development has a key role to play in reversing unsustainable trends," Al Rasheed said.
An audience of industry specialists, researchers and students engaged the panel experts in an active question and answer session, focusing on what the future holds for Qatar's water shortage and the role technology plays in addressing challenges. Panellists agreed on a core set of recommendations to improve current conditions, stressing that the region as a pioneer in water security and innovation, while the solutions themselves pave the way for further economic diversification and opportunity. The first member of the panel; Dr Adel Sharif is currently leading the Water Security Grand Challenge program at the Qatar Energy and Environment Research Institute. Prior to his current post, he was a Professor of Water Engineering and Process Innovation, and Founder Director of the Centre for Osmosis Research and Applications, (CORA) at the University of Surrey.
"Qatar's growing economy and population make water scarcity an issue of increasing importance, but we are confident that the goals we set are achievable given the manpower and technology we put in place. We are eager to provide a solution, and this calls for substantial investment in improved desalination technologies, which could involve solar energy or new ways of filtering our salt. We are looking for an effective solution by 2020, and a commercial partner that can help us make a big change in Qatar and in the region itself," he commented.
Joining Dr Adel Sharif and Mr Al Rasheed in the discussion was Dr Mohamed Shamroukh Mahmoud. Dr Mahmoud currently works as an Expert in Water Resources at the Water Department in Qatar's Ministry of Environment. He is also a Professor of Environmental and Water Resources Engineering and has published more than 33 papers in peer-reviewed international journals and recently co-edited a NATO publication.
"There are 6 projects related to water in Qatar Development Strategies 2011-2016 including National Water Act. This will enhance the water management in Qatar applying the three pillars of integrated water resources management (IWRM).Plans in Qatar are underway to secure the supply of potable water for 90 days in emergency situations via constructing mega reservoirs and ASR projects," he added
Having brought top industry figures from Qatar's health care, telecommunications, energy and transportation sectors to QSTP, TECHtalks continue to be a sought-after forum for knowledge-transfer to technology focused entrepreneurs, SMEs and professionals in Qatar. It is one of several on-going QSTP programs supporting technology development, innovation and commercialization in Qatar.

Hello Everyone,
About a year ago I bought a camellia sinensis to help spice up my patio. Since I got it, it's basically tripled in size. However, I fear now my lack of knowledge is killing it. In the last month it's gone from green to this. I'm not sure what i'm doing wrong. I'm a complete newb to all of this. I've searched the internet and can't find a single picture that exactly matches this and I fear doing anything else may make the condition worse. |
Follow-Up Postings:
How long has the plant had this problem? Did this happen just recently or a while back ago & the problem has since stabilized? Have you looked underneath the leaves for pests? Some aphids attack leaves by sucking up the leaf juices and causing some distortion, curling or crinkling of leaves. They prefer tender new young leaves. You can wash them with a strong water spray or a soapy-water mix. |
- Posted by camelliagirl 8 (My Page) on Mon, Feb 8, 10 at 11:57
It looks like what we get on our tea plants when we get a freeze, but your being in 9b, I doubt this is the case. I looks like it's on the older leaves, so I wouldn't worry too much about it, they may drop when the new growth starts coming on. Could it be sunburn? Perhaps you moved it, or it's light conditions changed? Just a thought, this may not be the case. |
Gardenrookie, would you please take another picture in two weeks from the same general perspective plus a close-up picture of the one left hand, sort of upright leaf with some brown discoloration showing on it. In California one must be alert to Sudden Oak Wilt (Phytophthora ramorum) which affects Camellias. It may or may not be your problem but stay alert to the possibility. |
Sorry, no way is that any where close to sudden oak death. More likely exposure to very bright light, even though that may have been for only a few hours. |
- Posted by camelliagirl (My Page) on Wed, Feb 17, 10 at 10:05
There are many many many causes of leaf problems on Camellias. Some of them are caused by the pathogen Phytophthora. But there are lots of Phytophthora and not all of them are SOD, which is Phytophthora ramorum. One should not jump to conclusions that all leaf problems are SOD. If you do, then you are ignoring all the many other possibilities that you can probably fix. |
my camellia is also losing its leaves but seems to have lots of new ones coming. So I will worry when its totally bare. The lost leaves are very healthy and green!! |

Over the course of the week, our route will take us from Okapuka west to the ocean, then north and inland in a broad loop that will eventually return us to our starting point. My right-hand-drive X5 has 14,000 kilometers on the odometer, and I ask Frank Isenberg, head of the BMW Driver Training programs, how long it's been in Africa. "Three years," he replies. All of these SUVs have been on this tour of duty since the revised X5 rolled out. Parking sensors dangle uselessly from bumpers. Rocker panels have been rocked. A crack meanders across my BMW's windshield. Inside, the iDrive screen flashes a succession of alarming messages - "4x4 system and DSC failed!" "No warnings from Park Distance Control." "Active steering inactive." Does that make it just "steering"?
"We've programmed the screen to show you every possible error message," says Isenberg. He's joking, possibly. Isenberg is in charge of the BMW crew, but the guide/Sherpa/fixer for the group at large is a fellow named Tim, a.k.a. Crazy Timmy. His family owns the Okapuka Ranch, and his dad looks like Ernest Hemingway. Tim never wears shoes and casually tells stories about riding sharks. Don't let your girlfriend meet Crazy Timmy if you ever again want her to think that you're cool.
We exit the ranch and head for the east/west thoroughfare that will take us to the Atlantic. Today is a distance drive, a couple hundred miles. The road is empty of traffic, so our string of X5s has no problem maintaining an easy 80 to 90 mph. Which would be boring except for the fact that there's no pavement. Yet doing 90 mph on dirt almost seems reasonable until we drop into a dry riverbed and launch out of it like a Baja trophy truck dropped into a Bouncy Castle. Even when we're not testing the limits of its bump stops, the X5 squirms and floats on the loose gravel, dancing between the ditch and the oncoming lane. It takes constant corrections to drive this fast, but it's also fantastically entertaining. At one point I hit 105 mph, and I reflect that maybe it's a good thing that I didn't get my hands on one of the V-8 vehicles.
As we drive, the landscape changes from desert to a serrated ridge of low mountains, and then suddenly to lush grassy plains. Ostriches mingle near the road. The sky is so crazily pure blue that I stop to take a photo, fully cognizant of the ridiculousness of what I'm doing - we have a sky, after all, at home. Yes, but somehow, it never looks like this.

The government's Technology Strategy Board has launched a competition to find the 10 most promising technology companies based at the 'Silicon Roundabout' in East London.
Each company will be given £100,000 from the total pot of £1m.
The competition, called 'Tech City Launchpad', was launched by David Bott, the Technology Strategy Board's director of Innovation Programmes, at the inaugural Digital Shoreditch Festival.
According to a report in the Telegraph, Bott said: "This unique competition is designed to promote the community dynamic within the Tech City area, encourage co-operation and grow business in the area. We want to support this hotspot of digital and creative industries by enabling companies to go further and faster towards commercial success. We are looking for projects that may be too risky for companies to go it alone, or that may take them into new areas."
The competition is designed to partly fund technology companies, and the Technology Strategy Board will help them find any additional funding they need.
"Projects will be up to 50 per cent funded by this competition. We will then help approved projects gain the remaining 50 per cent in funding through a funding workshop involving key investors such as business angels, venture capitalists and other larger companies in these industries, who will then invest in the [smaller] companies.
"By showing our financial support, we hope to make it easier for businesses to secure co-funding," said Bott.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

The following is a selection of quotes from articles published in the 23
July editions of Russian newspapers, as available to the BBC at 2300 gmt
on 22 July.
UN Kosovo ruling
Vremya Novostey (liberal daily) www.vremya.ru - "The UN's International
Court of Justice has recognized the independence of Kosovo... A
dangerous international legal precedent has been created in the issue of
settling numerous ethnic conflicts around the world. The ICJ ruling on
the status of Kosovo that was made public yesterday in The Hague will
influence the situation in various parts of the planet, including in the
republics of the former USSR. For the first time in the history of the
International Court of Justice, which was established in 1945, this
highest court of international law has agreed with the unilateral
secession of a territory from a UN member state without the latter's
approval. Although formally the ruling is non-binding, the arguments
used to justify the verdict may well be applied to other hot spots...
Europeans will have to draw their own conclusions, as the current
independent Kosovo cannot be regarded as a factor of stability in the
re! gion."
[from an article by Petr Iskenderov headlined "Separate ruling"]
Kommersant (heavyweight liberal daily) www.kommersant.ru - "This is a
blow to Belgrade, which has warned about the dangers of creating a
precedent more than once. Nonetheless, sources in the Serbian leadership
told Kommersant that Belgrade will continue fighting for Kosovo. This
may mean that Serbia is prepared to soften its position on Kosovo in
return for its accelerated integration into the EU...
"From a political point of view, the court was choosing between law and
stability. [For the ICJ] to recognize the legality of Kosovo's
independence would mean to indirectly give its blessing to violations of
international law. If, however, Kosovo's decision had been declared
illegal, this could have provoked Albanians to start their armed fight
again... ICJ president Hisashi Owada announced the court's ruling
yesterday. The main point that he made in his speech was that Kosovo's
declaration of independence did not violate international law. Thus, the
court unambiguously supported Kosovo's independence...
"Moscow may be able to benefit from the ICJ ruling... When the West
starts reproaching Moscow for 'recognizing the separatists in Sukhumi
and Tskhinvali' again, it will now be able to point to yesterday's
decision by the ICJ."
[from an article by Gennadiy Sysoyev titled "Separatism has been
Vedomosti (business daily published jointly with WSJ & FT)
www.vedomosti.ru - "The court's ruling is non-binding, but it will have
political consequences: the countries that haven't' yet recognized
Kosovo will now find it easier to do so from a moral point of view...
The ruling is also beneficial for Serbia, which will now be able to go
ahead with its integration into the EU, as the burden of the Kosovo
factor has now been lifted, says political analyst Fedor Lukyanov... The
court's ruling is another step towards eroding the principle of the
inviolability of state borders in post-war Europe, Lukyanov added."
[from an article by Polina Khimshiashvili headlined "Now we can break
Izvestiya (pro-Kremlin daily) www.izvestia.ru - "Joining the EU is one
of Belgrade's priorities. This is why Serbs will have to untie the
Kosovo knot; otherwise the door of the European Union will be closed for
them. Experts believe that sooner or later Belgrade will agree to a
compromise and try to get back the northern part of Kosovo, where ethnic
Serbs live in a compact area. However, the government is unlikely to
announce these plans in the near future, as ordinary citizens won't
support them."
[from an article by Yekaterina Zabrodina headlined "The Hague leaves
Serbs without Kosovo"]
Nezavisimaya Gazeta (heavyweight daily) www.ng.ru - "The court's ruling,
although advisory and non-binding, may have serious political
consequences... The ruling is a historical precedent which could
influence processes in other countries that are facing the issue of
separatism, such as Russia or Spain."
[from an article by Darya Tsilyurik titled "International Court of
Justice regards Kosovo as a special case"]
Rossiyskaya Gazeta (state-owned daily) www.rg.ru - "There are no reasons
to doubt that the visit of a delegation from Pristina to [Kosovo's] main
ally, the USA, has been timed to coincide with the announcement of UN
judges' verdict. Washington's support played a decisive role in what was
essentially the dismemberment of Serbia. As an expression of
'gratitude', the streets of Pristina are named after the former US
presidents, Clinton and Bush... During talks with US Vice-President Joe
Biden, the prime minister of Kosovo was told about America's total
support for the self-proclaimed territory's integration into
Euro-Atlantic institutions, which was music to his ears."
[from an article by Aleksandr Gasyuk titled "Thaci is turning a deaf
Russia-Belarus media war
Moskovskiy Komsomolets (popular Moscow daily) www.mk.ru - "The open
confrontation between Moscow and Minsk is continuing... The most rabid
opponents of the Kremlin are waiting in line to appear on Belarusian
television. On Thursday night Latvian President Valdis Zatlers was
expected to give an interview in prime time.
"Members of the Belarusian opposition have decided to take the
opportunity and put pressure on Batka [Alyaksandr Lukashenka's nickname,
meaning 'father']. The most promising of them have had meetings with the
Russian political elite... The Kremlin has started looking at candidates
for the highest post in the neighbouring country. The chairman of the
[Belarusian] opposition United Civic Party, Anatol Lyabedzka... and a
presidential candidate, Yaraslaw Ramanchuk, whose image is that of an
ultra-liberal politician, arrived in Moscow from Minsk a couple of days
[from an article by Igor Karmazin titled "Batka neglected"]
Russia suspends aid to Dniester region
Kommersant (heavyweight liberal daily) www.kommersant.ru - "Kommersant
has learnt that the unrecognized Dniester Moldovan republic has stopped
receiving financial aid from Russia which has been provided regularly
since 2008... There have also been reports in the Dniester region media
that Russian banks are going to close the correspondent accounts
belonging to the Dniester region's Gazprombank, which is controlled by
Oleg Smirnov, the son of Igor Smirnov, the president of the Dniester
Moldovan republic. The bank is suspected of carrying out illegal banking
operations with the money that has been coming from Russia as part of
the financial aid package... Igor Smirnov has been asked to ensure that
the money is spent in a more transparent way, so that the issue does not
generate any undesirable and negative political publicity."

=== Eskimos part ways with GM Tillman === Edmonton, AB (Sports Network) - The Edmonton Eskimos have relieved Eric Tillman of his duties as general manager. Tillman led Edmonton to back-to-back playoff appearances since taking over in 2010. The timing is surprising considering the Eskimos (7-11) have qualified for the playoffs this year. Edmonton finished its regular season Friday with a third straight loss, and will face the Toronto Argonauts in the East Division semifinal on Nov. 11. "I have spent considerable time looking at the future direction of this club and did not see Eric as a part of this team moving forward," Eskimos president and CEO Len Rhodes said. "We will begin our search for a new general manager immediately and hope to have a successor in place by the end of the calendar year." Tillman has four Grey Cup appearances with three wins in his 12 years as general manager with Edmonton, Saskatchewan, British Columbia, Toronto and Ottawa. 11/03 23:45:52 ET Powered by The Sports Network. |
