Home we are
It was time to start the journey home so we headed across to the airport and checked in before heading to the virgin lounge. We grabbed some dinner and drinks, wrote up the blog and soon enough it was time to board. With the mixture of eating, film watching and sleeping, the 13 hours passed quick enough and we were soon landing in LHR.
After arrival we made our way ...
Early start, 6am flight!
... was quite turbulent but I managed to get a fair amount of z's,. Ryan, not so much! Paying for a slight upgrade of our seats meant it was only ryan and I in the row of seats so no one bothering us, it was worth it! 1 movie, 6 chapters of my book, 50 games of solitaire and 3 meals later, we landed in Johannesburg. 0105 local ...

Its a long 13 hour flight and the last thing you need after that is Terminal 5. Ponce again we get lost and end up out in the domestic terminal.
When we get back to Aberdeen it is cold and there is a light dusting of snow which makes having been away for three weeks feel all the better.

On non-academic note, I am loving Scotland more and more. I am networking and making new and interesting people. I am recognizing the various accents and learning to speak in the native tongue. At this rate my friends I may never come back. Let's just say its a good thing that i have few good reasons to go back to the states.

West Nile Cases Pass 4,700 Mark Nationwide: CDC
THURSDAY, Oct. 25 (HealthDay News) -- The number of West Nile virus cases this year has surpassed 4,700, U.S. health officials reported Thursday, and the number of deaths has reached 219, up from 183 last week.
As of Tuesday, 48 states had reported West Nile infections in people, birds or mosquitoes. A total of 4,725 cases involved people. Of these cases, 51 percent were classified as neuroinvasive disease (such as meningitis or encephalitis) and 49 percent were classified as non-neuroinvasive disease.
The 4,725 cases mark the highest number reported through the fourth week of October since 2003. The bulk of reported cases (3,215) were from eight states -- Texas, California, Louisiana, Mississippi, Illinois, South Dakota, Michigan and Oklahoma -- and the highest number of reported cases (1,628) in any one state were in Texas, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The best way to avoid the virus is to wear insect repellent and support local programs to eradicate mosquitoes. There is no treatment for West Nile virus and no vaccine to prevent it, according to the CDC.
Typically, 80 percent of people infected with the virus develop no or few symptoms, while 20 percent develop mild symptoms such as headache, joint pain, fever, skin rash and swollen lymph glands, according to the CDC.
Although most people with mild cases of West Nile virus will recover on their own, the CDC recommends that anyone who develops symptoms see their doctor right away.
People older than 50 and those with certain medical conditions, such as cancer, diabetes, hypertension, kidney disease and organ transplants, are at greater risk for serious illness.
The best way to protect yourself from West Nile virus is to avoid getting bitten by mosquitoes, which can pick up the disease from infected birds.
The CDC recommends the following steps to protect yourself:
- Use insect repellents when outside.
- Wear long sleeves and pants from dawn to dusk.
- Don't leave standing water outside in open containers, such as flowerpots, buckets and kiddie pools.
- Install or repair windows and door screens.
- Use air conditioning when possible.

Electric Airplane Ready For Production 239
from the nuclear-powered-planes-out-next-month dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
I'd think that depends on the weight of the solar panels... they'd have to be more efficient then the cost to carry them. And I'm sure light panels would not make this $500,000 plane any cheaper.
How do they handle annual inspections? Replace the battery pack every year?
On a 200-mile trip in a comparable four-passenger gas-engine private plane, you'd burn $80 worth of avgas
Who cares, annual inspections for a small plane, assuming no real problems are found, are like $1500
The standard
It probably would be more beneficial overall if some company would get a piston engine NOT based on the VW bug or a 1970's snowmobile certified for aviation use. A reduction drive is not THAT hard to engineer reliably, especially if it's required to be overhauled every 10000 hours of use.
Consider the Yamaha Genesis series snowmobile engines.... 130HP from 1L, decent fuel consumption, takes unleaded, Dry-sump design, light weight, won't require careful monitoring of temperature/cowl flaps or mixture, just does it's job.

Catholic Chicago Blog http://www.archchicago.org/blog/ This Blog from the Archdiocese of Chicago presents topics for meaningful discussion through interactive feedback from readers. weekly 2009-06-08T09:00-05:00 Casa Jesus to Celebrate their Annual Banquet http://www.archchicago.org/blog/comments.aspx?postID=514
Blessings to you and your loved ones during these Holy Days!

Casa Jesús, a part of the seminary system in the Archdiocese of Chicago, focuses on Hispanic men who want to discern their calling to the diocesan priesthood in Chicago. We have been around since 1987, when Fr. Arturo Perez and Fr. Silvano Filipetto began this fascinating adventure of forming and educating young men to the priesthood. Since then, 51 (fifty-one!) men who came through Casa Jesús have been ordained to the priesthood in Chicago; many of them serve now as pastors and associate pastors around the archdiocese, as well as in archdiocesan offices; some are pursuing advanced degrees in Theology and other disciplines. In addition, eighteen Casa Jesús alumni are enrolled in St. Joseph College Seminary and Mundelein Seminary; three of them will be ordained to the priesthood this coming May.

Furthermore, one of our Casa Jesus alumni has been ordained as an auxiliary bishop here in Chicago; Bishop Alberto Rojas (Casa Jesus class of 1994) serves as Episcopal Vicar in Vicariate III.

Casa Jesús continues its mission of fostering priestly discernment in the multicultural Archdiocese of Chicago by being a home to Spanish-speaking Latinos interested in the priesthood; providing them with the opportunity for English studies, spiritual growth and acculturation; and by serving as a resource to Latino priests. Five young men are currently completing their second quarter at UIC, and they are preparing themselves to continue on in their priestly formation at Mundelein this fall. Please keep these men, and those considering the call to priesthood, in your prayers.

On Saturday, April 11, Casa Jesus will celebrate its Annual Banquet, with the theme "Acting on the Word of God to reach His people." It will take place at The Drake Hotel, located at 140 East Walton Place, Chicago, IL.

We will award the "La Llave de San Pedro" Award to the ministries of Holy Name Cathedral, represented by Msgr. Dan Mayall; and the "Corazon de Jesus" Award to Miss Carole O'Neill. You are invited to join us and to celebrate 28 years of service to this archdiocese. For tickets and more information, please call Ms. Yesenia Ortiz at 312-640-1065 ext. 10, or visit www.casajesus.org.

Thank you for your prayers and support. Muchas gracias!
 Fr. Octavio Munoz 2015-03-30T16:50:00-05:00 Celebrating the Kick-off to World Youth Day 2016 on Palm Sunday http://www.archchicago.org/blog/comments.aspx?postID=513
We, at the Young Adult Ministry Office, are very excited to celebrate Palm Sunday and the international World Youth Day this year at Holy Name Cathedral on March 29th. World Youth Day is an international celebration by the Church to recognize the importance of young people in the life of the Catholic community of faith. Started by St. John Paul II in 1985, the World Youth Day experiences continue to be the largest gathering of young Catholics throughout the world.

The next World Youth Day pilgrimage, which takes place every two or three years, will be in July of 2016 in Kraków, Poland. We are so blessed to have a large Polish community here in the Archdiocese of Chicago that is very excited to have this event hosted in their home country. Though July 2016 may seem far away, we are starting our preparation for this amazing pilgrimage experience by gathering together at this year's Palm Sunday and World Youth Day celebration with a Prayer Gathering at 3:00 PM in the Courtyard of Holy Name Cathedral. Last year, we started this annual tradition of "Blessed," by gathering young adults throughout the Archdiocese, praying and reflecting on the theme that Pope Francis has given us for World Youth Day this year ("Blessed are the pure of heart for they shall see God" – Matthew 5:8), and celebrating the young Church of Chicago.

Though the word "youth" is in the title, it is very much a young adult event! Most pilgrims who go to World Youth Day are between the ages of 18 and 30. Our hope is that young adults will feel welcome to participate in all of the activities leading up to World Youth Day 2016, especially our Palm Sunday Kick-Off event with Archbishop Blase Cupich! We hope to bring some of the World Youth Day experience here to Chicago by praying the Divine Mercy prayer in four languages (English, Spanish, Polish and Tagalog) to highlight the diversity of communities we have in this Archdiocese. We will also have live music and invite everyone to join us for the 5:15 PM mass at Holy Name Cathedral.

If you want to learn more about World Youth Day 2016 and our plans in preparing for this wonderful pilgrimage experience, check out our website at www.yamchicago.org/wyd2016. There you will find information about the pilgrimage from Chicago, information about upcoming events and how to get involved with one of our planning committees.

We invite you to join us at Holy Name Cathedral on Palm Sunday for this prayer gathering with our Archbishop. Bring your friends and help us kick-off the road to WYD 2016!

 Darius Villalobos 2015-03-23T15:30:00-05:00 What Is National Catholic Sisters Week? http://www.archchicago.org/blog/comments.aspx?postID=509
NATIONAL CATHOLIC SISTERS WEEK (NCSW) is an annual celebration that takes place from March 8–14. It began in 2014 as part of National Women's History Month. Created to honor women religious, it is a series of events that instruct, enlighten, and help people understand and be inspired by their witness. It is an opportunity to recognize their presence and ministry in the Church. It is also a way to reach more young women so they can learn about women religious, thus more will choose to follow their example.

In the United States, women religious come in diverse forms: contemplatives who live cloistered lives, monastic, active or missionaries. Some wear traditional habits while others were founded to wear the garments of the poor or working class. They also serve God through various ministries – prayer, labor, education, health care, pastoral care, or justice, peace and care of the earth.

In 2014, the inaugural National Catholic Sisters Week was held March 8–14, with the highlight being the NCSW Sister/Student conference drawing more than 50 pairs of Catholic sisters and college students across the country to St. Catherine University and engaging hundreds more online, shining a national spotlight on Catholic sisters and raising awareness of their profound influence on young women.

A highlight of the weekend was SisterStories, a storytelling event hosted by acclaimed broadcast journalist Soledad O'Brien and produced by The Moth Radio Hour, the national public radio show that won a Peabody Award in 2010.

NCSW is supported by a $3.3 million grant from the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation, is headquartered at St. Catherine University in St. Paul, Minn., and is held in conjunction with National Women's History Month.

  Sr. Lovina Pammit, OSF 2015-03-09T15:50:00-05:00 Life Advocacy Day with the Respect Life Office http://www.archchicago.org/blog/comments.aspx?postID=504
On Wednesday, March 4, the Archdiocese of Chicago will send a delegation of folks to Springfield to meet with Congressional Representatives for what we call a "Life Advocacy Day." We will focus on two bills that are on their way to committee in the near future. The issues are this: (1) A bill will be presented that will require an abortion provider to offer to show the image of a child in the womb during an ultrasound to the mother who is considering abortion. We are, of course are in support of this bill, and (2) A bill will be presented that will effectively prevent a health care provider to ever invoke their right of conscience when treating patients (e.g., abortion, prescribing contraceptives, etc). We, of course, are against this bill.

Please join us on this day! We need to be heard in Springfield! We will meet at 6 AM on Wednesday, March 4th. Transportation and lunch will be provided for a $20 donation. See the attached flyer for more details. Call the Respect Life Office at 312-534-5355 to sign-up to go with us!

God Bless!
 Dawn Fitzpatrick 2015-03-02T10:30:00-05:00 Do we find forgiveness or does forgiveness find us? http://www.archchicago.org/blog/comments.aspx?postID=503
When Jesus taught us to pray, "forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us," he implied a reality that none of us would deny. He didn't say "if others offend us or hurt us, enable us to forgive them." Rather, he tells us when they offend us—as they inevitably will—let our hearts be big enough to extend forgiveness to them, that same forgiveness that we want for ourselves.

And there is even more to this simple petition. This prayer that Jesus himself taught us begins with God forgiving us: "You, Lord, forgive us our trespasses." It belongs uniquely to God and no one else to forgive sin. Ultimately, forgiveness can only belong to God, because to forgive is to breathe new life in another person. Only the creator can bring new life out of the nothingness of our sins and offenses. Mercy and forgiveness finds us. Forgiveness begins with God who finds us broken and wounded. And God binds the wounds and breathes new life into us.

We would, however, be sadly mistaken if we were to think that this is simply a quick and simple matter of forgive-and-forget, a cheap pass to get out of trouble. When we want the forgiveness and mercy of God to find us and transform us, we must both ask for it ("forgive us our trespasses") and be willing ourselves to live in that mercy by forgiving others ("as we forgive those who trespass against us").

It all comes together in the sacrament of penance, when we go to confession. The mercy of God is waiting to find us. We take a step. In faith, we ask for forgiveness. The dead weight of sin is lifted. We are infused with new life. God is true to his merciful word. But is it real? Are we truly forgiven? Do we have new life within us? The proof is not only the forgiveness received but in the forgiveness we give to others—"forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us." When we walk in mercy, we know that mercy has found us.

Experience the power of the merciful forgiveness of God that we both receive and share in the Sacrament of Penance and in our celebration of the Festival of Forgiveness on February 27-28.
 Fr. Louis Cameli 2015-02-18T07:30:00-05:00 Year of Consecrated Life http://www.archchicago.org/blog/comments.aspx?postID=502
This past Saturday, February 7, the Archdiocesan Celebration of Consecrated Life with Archbishop Blase J. Cupich was held at St. John Brebeuf Parish in Niles. Over 500 participants representing various forms of consecration were joined by 30 young adult leaders. Special guests gave brief testimonials on how consecrated men and women have positively influenced their lives. In between the witness talks, celebratory and reflective hymns were sung. Archbishop Cupich shared his own reflections and allowed for a Q & A session. Finally, each table group discussed ways to have regional celebrations throughout the year. We ended the day with the vigil Mass in which the Archbishop invited the Religious to renew their vows. It was a truly joyful experience for everyone!

 The Year of Consecrated Life (YCL), declared by Pope Francis, began on the first Sunday of Advent, November 29, 2014, and ends on February 2, 2016. It offers us an opportunity to pray, give thanks, raise awareness and educate about consecrated life in the church.

 During this time, all of us can remember the recent past of consecrated men and women with gratitude, embrace this present moment, and aspire for a future of hope that, with God's help, we can create. Religious and other consecrated persons cannot do this alone. The entire Church must engage in this endeavor and we, the people of God in Chicago, will celebrate this year with thanksgiving and hope. I invite you to visit our website: www.officeforreligious.org, to learn more about the various forms of consecrated life or if you would like to be involved in helping us celebrate YCL.

 Here are some simple activities individual persons, families and parishes can engage in during this year:

Remember and pray for a special religious man or woman that has touched your life. Pray that other men and women will listen to the call to consecrated life.

Talk to a religious sister, brother or priest and invite him or her to speak to your parish group or to your family. If you do not know anyone to ask please contact the Office for Religious and we will provide you a speaker.

Volunteer at a ministry sponsored by a Religious community

May the Love of Christ and His peace permeate our Lives during this very special Year of Consecrated Life and empower us to continue His mission in the world!

 "I want to say one word to you and this word is joy. Wherever consecrated people are, there is always joy!" ~Pope Francis
 Sr. Joan McGlinchey, MSC 2015-02-09T11:10:00-05:00 Parish Leadership Day 2015 http://www.archchicago.org/blog/comments.aspx?postID=501
I've been walking the halls of an empty high school building the last few weekends and imagining how different it will look on February 21st. The high school is Marist, a Catholic, college-prep school, home of the mighty Redhawks and a student body of almost 1,800! On my early morning rounds, the halls are long, wide and ready for the crowds of people who will pack the place at Parish Leadership Day.

I'm part of a team of people who are preparing for over 100 workshops, 50 vendors and 1,000 participants to use every inch of space at Marist on Saturday, February 21st. The school is training student ambassadors to help us all find our way to the classrooms and gyms that will hold workshops, registration, Opening Prayer and the Closing Mass. We're planning to use the extra-large gym for some of these events and the Q and A session with Archbishop Cupich because everyone wants to welcome him!

We have heard that some parishes are filling a bus with people who want to attend Parish Leadership Day. People are coming to learn, celebrate and have fun! There will definitely be a party-atmosphere, complete with live music from choirs (like Harmony, Hope and Healing) providing music around the school throughout the day. The singing will be in different languages and so will the workshops. This year several of the workshops will even have sign-language interpreters.

Parish Leadership has a long history of offering great opportunities to meet with and talk to leaders in the Catholic Church as well as people in the pews. I love this event because it is planned and organized by parishioners from all over the Archdiocese. We have a saying, "Parish Leadership Day is BY the people, FOR the people."

Even though the halls are empty as I walk through with the Planning Committee, we can almost feel the excitement that will fill the space on February 21st.

Here's my personal invitation to you. Register online today. Once you experience Parish Leadership Day, join me on the Planning Committee and together we'll imagine and create another great Parish Leadership Day in 2016!
 Nancy Polacek 2015-02-03T14:30:00-05:00 2014 Annual Catholic Appeal – Results! 2015 Annual Catholic Appeal – Kick Off! http://www.archchicago.org/blog/comments.aspx?postID=491
It is tremendously encouraging to know that the faithful of the Archdiocese of Chicago prioritize their support for the Church and her ministries. I am pleased to report that 65,000 households have contributed $14,500,000 to the 2014 Annual Catholic Appeal. This inspiring generosity brings all of us such a profound sense of hope to know that the people continue to share what God has given them to support the critical work of the schools, parishes, agencies and ministries of the Archdiocese of Chicago.

As we conclude the 2014 Annual Catholic Appeal, we look forward to the 2015 Appeal. Its theme is drawn from Saint Paul's first letter to the Corinthians – Entrusted with Responsibility.  As those entrusted with responsibility, we respond to the good news of Jesus Christ when we serve others and stand for justice, reconciliation, truth and respect for all life. Our support can take many forms—prayers, financial contributions, personal witness and giving our time to share our talents.

Since 1991, the Annual Catholic Appeal has made an extraordinary impact on the work of this local Church and the future generations of Jesus' disciples. Through their loyalty and consistent generosity, the people of the Archdiocese have provided over $240,000,000 to help sustain Catholic schools, parishes, religious education programs and ministerial formation, initiatives to foster respect for life, as well as those that make the world more just, peaceful and loving. Through its support of Catholic Relief Services, the Annual Appeal serves people worldwide, without regard for religious affiliation, whose lives are devastated by natural disasters, illnesses, wars and famines.

All funds raised are carefully spent; it is money for God's work, and we use it accordingly. 90 cents of every dollar raised goes directly to the schools, parishes, agencies and ministries of the Archdiocese of Chicago.

Please consider joining me in making a generous gift to the 2015 Annual Catholic Appeal. Your contributions make a real difference in the lives of many. Thank you.

 Barbara Shea Collins 2015-01-19T09:00:00-05:00 Encountering Christ in Dialogue http://www.archchicago.org/blog/comments.aspx?postID=489
 Every year since 1908, the week between the feasts of the Chair of St. Peter (Jan 18) and the Conversion of St. Paul (Jan 25) has been dedicated to prayer for Christian Unity. To aid in this week of prayer for unity, a unique theme is chosen annually, centered on a Scriptural passage. This year's theme was chosen by organizers from Brazil and centers on Jesus' request for a drink from the Samaritan woman at the well in John's Gospel (John 4:7). Water plays a prominent role in this scene, but at its core, this story is about an encounter which leads to conversion. Jesus is a foreigner, an outsider, asking a local for a drink. However, it is soon apparent that he is asking for much more than water. He is asking to enter into a relationship with her. Through dialogue, Jesus invites her to accept the living water of faith that only he can provide. Through this encounter, the Samaritan woman comes to know herself in a new, deeper way. She is converted.

In a similar way, through prayer and dialogue among Christians, we can come to know better the gift of water that is welling up within ourselves that only Christ can provide. We can also begin to see this same life-giving water in our sisters and brothers in Christ. We can recognize unity in our diversity. As Pope Francis recently wrote, "How many important things unite us! If we really believe in the abundantly free working of the Holy Spirit, we can learn so much from one another!" (Evangelii Gaudium, 246)

 Water surrounds us here in Chicago, to the point where we can take it for granted at times. The same can be true of the presence of other Christians. They are all around us. They are praying next door to us. They reside in our neighborhoods and work and recreate with us. If possible, find some time to pray for them and Christian unity in a special way this week. And, if you are so moved, enter into a dialogue with a member from another Christian community in your neighborhood. You might just come to recognize the living waters of Christ in him or her, while renewing an awareness of those sustaining waters within yourself.

The Office for Ecumenical and Interreligious Affairs has many resources available to assist you and your parish in participating with the worldwide Christian community in praying for unity. Please visit our website (www.archchicago.org/departments/ecumenical/) to learn more.
 Daniel Olsen 2015-01-12T12:00:00-05:00 What will you do for Poverty Awareness Month? http://www.archchicago.org/blog/comments.aspx?postID=488
January is poverty awareness month. As followers of Christ, we are called to be deeply engaged with our world. In the gospels, Jesus finds a time to pull away from the world for prayer and reflection, but he remains deeply engaged with the realities and injustices of the world he entered.

It does not take a degree in economics or research to know poverty is a reality in our society. Poverty Awareness Month is not a call to simply know that poverty is real. It is a call to engage with the overwhelming reach of poverty in this country and to allow ourselves to be disturbed and agitated by its reality so that we take action to end it.

We may be aware that people are indeed poor, but are we aware of the crushing experience God's children live through in poverty? Are we aware that income inequality is on the rise in our country? Are we aware that over the past ten years, well before 2008, even the coveted college degree has not had a significant impact on keeping families from falling deeper into poverty? Are we aware of the way racism in the United States has played into poverty - that one of every three African American children and one of every four Latino children live in poverty—two times higher than the rate for white children? Are we aware that adult women overwhelmingly represent adults in poverty? Are we aware that poverty in the United States has shown a consistent negative effect on mental health and self-esteem?

Are we aware that we cannot simply have a sense that there are poor people, but as followers of Christ we must take responsibility for understanding its deep connection to other injustices, and its lasting effects on our sisters and brothers? Do we listen to our sisters and brothers? Do we move into relationship with our sisters and brothers whose lives are often defined by poverty? Do we ground our prayer lives in relation to our sisters and brothers? Do we who suffer from injustice, we who are poor, call upon Christ's vision for the world, and not blame ourselves and pull away from this relationship? Being aware of poverty means being aware of how poverty erodes the dignity of the human person for those who are experiencing the injustice of poverty and those who ignore it, and it means being so alive with the love of Christ we must act to end this injustice.

On the Feast of Christ the King in 2014, the weekend when the church in America celebrates the work of the Catholic Campaign for Human Development and invests in its future, we read the parable of the sheep and the goats and it has weighed heavily on my heart. In it, the goats who have ignored their sisters and brothers who have struggled in an unjust society say to Christ, "'Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?'"

Christ replies, "Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me." The goats are then sent to eternal punishment. What I learned from the reading this year is that in the end, ignorance will not be a sufficient excuse. When Christ asks us to account for our lives, if we did not take responsibility for understanding our role in society and acting on it, we will be held accountable. This parable is a prophetic call to deeper engagement in society and stronger relationship with our sisters and brothers.

This Poverty Awareness Month, we must push ourselves to ensure we are not the goats. Like the sheep, we must push ourselves to deeper awareness and relationship with our sisters and brothers who are struggling in this unjust society, and we must act on that awareness. Let us open our eyes and hearts to the reality of poverty in the world. Then, let us ground our prayer and action in deep relationship, so we will know the right path, grounded in love.

This Poverty Awareness Month, here is what you can do:

Donate to the Catholic Campaign for Human Development, the Bishops' fund for anti-poverty and systemic change work.

 Sign up for the Office for Peace and Justice e-mail list.

 Attend a faith and organizing training with Organizing Catholics for Justice.

 Sign up for the Economic Justice Campaign with OCJ.

11 Amazing Things NASA's Huge Mars Rover Can Do 147
from the rover-4.0 dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
Sure it can... it will just take a few billion years.
One misplaced micro-organism and it could set off evolution on mars that will slowly terraform the planet over the next few billion years.
It should have a cargo-hold full of Wall-E type devices that can scatter during the day and return home to charge at night.
Give more than one scientist at a time a chance to drive.
(And reduce the risk of total mission failure in case of a Walowitz incident.)
Bacteria have been found alive on the outside of satellites that have not had contact with earth for months.
If they can survive on the exterior of man made objects in space- it is potentially possible they could survive on Mars.
One of the theories of origin, pan-spermia, is that simplistic organisms (or their precursors) spread to earth via space debris.
If I had say in the matter, I would include more redundance.
Instead of one of each type of camera on the mast, I would include redundant cameras on each mast.
Instead of one mast, I would require two masts, with separate motors, computers, etc.
I would include both mechanical (or pneumatic if compressors that work in that environment can be made compactly enough) and electrostatic lens cleaning mechanisms.
I would include redundant "legs" and wheels, with the primary set being ejectable in the event of failure.
The cost would go up, but given that when you come down to it this amounts to a $2.5bil RC car, spending a few million more on extreme redundance to guarantee reliability (after it hopefully lands safely) is very cheap insurance - it's not like you can just send out a minimum-wage Geek Squad "technician" to (hopefully) repair it and upsell it on gold-plated HDMI cables and Norton AntiVirus.

critical thinking
Using Fundamental Concepts and Essential Questions to Promote Critical Thinking
Could your students identify the most important concepts in your discipline? Do they leave your class understanding these most fundamental concepts, including the ability to reason using these concepts to answer essential questions? Do your students become critical thinkers who connect concepts and practices in your course with other courses? With their future professional lives?
Unlocking the Mystery of Critical Thinking
Critical thinking. We all endorse it. We all want our students to do it. And we claim to teach it. But do we? Do we even understand and agree what it means to think critically?
According to Paul and Elder's (2013a) survey findings, most faculty don't know what critical thinking is or how to teach it. Unless faculty explicitly and intentionally design their courses to build their students' critical thinking skills and receive training in how to teach them, their students do not improve their skills (Abrami et al., 2008).
Guiding Students to Think Critically Using Case Studies
One of the best practices in teaching and learning is the use of a three-part case study, or a scenario-based story, to help students deepen their understanding of a concept. The three parts of a case study are a scenario-based story that focuses on a specific, hypothetical problem, supporting literature that aligns with the main themes of the story, and guiding questions that help the learner gain the most from understanding the concepts and objectives of the case study by applying critical and higher order thinking skills.
Our Top 13 Teaching and Learning Articles of 2013
As 2013 draws to a close, the editorial team at Faculty Focus looks back on some of the most popular articles of the past year. During the course of the year, we published more than 250 articles on a full range of topics of interest to today's college educators.
Prompts That Get Students to Analyze, Reflect, Relate, and Question
A simple teaching technique that helps students learn; now there's something few teachers would pass up! This particular technique involves a four-question set that gets students actively responding to the material they are studying. They analyze, reflect, relate, and question via these four prompts:
The Instructor's Challenge: Moving Students beyond Opinions to Critical Thinking
Critical thinking is defined as a reflective and reasonable thought process embodying depth, accuracy, and astute judgment to determine the merit of a decision, an object, or a theory (Alwehaibi, 2012). Creative thinking involves analysis, evaluation, and a synthesizing of facts, ideas, opinions, and theories. Possessing the capacity to logically and creatively exercise in-depth judgment and reflection to work effectively in the realm of complex ideas exemplifies a critical thinker (Carmichael & Farrell, 2012).
The Little Assignment with the Big Impact: Reading, Writing, Critical Reflection, and Meaningful Discussion
Several years ago, I came across the Purposeful Reading Assignment that was reported to encourage students to read, reflect, and write about readings assigned for class. Research (Roberts and Roberts, 2008) and experience tell us that supporting students' reading, writing, and reflective practices is one of the most challenging aspects of learning and teaching. Although this assignment appeared to be simple, it has proven to be an influential tool for learning and has increased engagement and participation among my students.
Assessing Critical Thinking Skills
The guidelines suggested below propose how critical thinking skills can be assessed "scientifically" in psychology courses and programs. The authors begin by noting something about psychology faculty that is true of faculty in many other disciplines, which makes this article relevant to a much larger audience. "The reluctance of psychologists to assess the critical thinking (CT) of their students seems particularly ironic given that so many endorse CT as an outcome…" (p. 5) Their goal then is to offer "practical guidelines for collecting high-quality LOA (learning outcome assessment) data that can provide a scientific basis for improving CT instruction." (p. 5) The guidelines are relevant to individual courses as well as collections of courses that comprise degree programs. Most are relevant to courses or programs in many disciplines; others are easily made so.
A Three-Pronged Approach to Improving Online Student Engagement, Critical Thinking
Monica Rothschild-Boros, an art appreciation and cultural anthropology instructor at Orange Coast College, uses a combination of embedded lecture questions, threaded discussion, and innovative assignments to engage students and get them to think critically in her online courses.
Critical Thinking: Definitions and Assessments
Despite almost universal agreement that critical thinking needs to be taught in college, now perhaps more than ever before, there is much less agreement on definitions and dimensions. "Critical thinking can include the thinker's dispositions and orientations; a range of specific analytical, evaluative, and problem-solving skills; contextual influences; use of multiple perspectives; awareness of one's own assumptions; capacities for metacognition; or a specific set of thinking processes or tasks." (p. 127)

Today man's mind is under attack by all the leading schools of philosophy. We are told that we cannot trust our senses, that logic is arbitrary, that concepts have no basis in reality.

45" square oak table: style/age/origin input
I recently purchased this table but the owners weren't able to tell me much about it other than it was owned by their late aunt. It is 45" square with two leaves (expands to 69") the legs spread out when you add the leaves. It has egg and dart motifu just under the lip of the table and the top is solid wood (matching grain on underside) and not veneer. No marks that I can see to tell me who manufactured it or where it came from. Any insight would be very much appreciated.
The construction of the casters on the legs will help with putting a date on this table. Those look to be originals. Casters are replaceable therefore can not always be relied upon for dating.
The casters should be lubricated occasionally. Some folks wait until they squeek before lubing. In my opinion, one should wait that long.
I like the table top.
1900-1930 Nice looking table. It was probably veneered on top over the planks when it was originally sold. What you see now is the wood plank base they put the veneer onto.
Salvaging a peeling veneer by stripping it off and hoping there's good wood underneath happens a lot.
Lazy , you're suggesting those planks are the base to what once had veneer on them ?
I'm sorry , but I disagree with your statement 1000%.
NOT A CHANCE , there was never veneer on top of those boards , the table was built as it is seen now .
Nobody tries to peel veneer off in hopes of finding good wood underneath . Furniture wasn't built with "good" wood under the veneer . That's redundant .Why would you put good wood under even nicer veneer ?
Furniture that is fabricated with veneer as the top surface is done with that purpose . Typically in this order
1. A white wood ,most often Poplar as the "base" wood .
2. A thin ,but thicker wood then the veneer which is referred to as the underlayment .
3. The top wood is the veneer .
"Nobody tries to peel veneer off in hopes of finding good wood underneath"
Lots of people, including me, were trying to salvage old furniture like this in the 1970s ... during the first round of the "Golden Oak" fad.
I found a few that had damaged veneer over wood of the same species, usually oak. The butt-jointed boards give it strength, and are less liable to warp than broader boards, then a veneer over it spreads the fancy stuff thinly.
http://www.harpgallery.com/library/veneer.htm says, "Around 1900, highly prized quarter-sawn or tiger oak was often veneered over regular cut solid oak."
The wheels are metal and rounded.
The overall quality of the piece causes me to really doubt this was ever veneered. The wood is just *TOO* beautiful and original and whoever made the table took great efforts to match the grain from one plank to the next.
I found it here in Salt Lake where it is the norm for a single piece of furniture to stay in a family for its entire life (I have a piano from 1906 that was in the same family until 2004 when my husband bought it for me along with a few stamped Stickley rockers..thanks to living in Utah we've found many beautiful things when families just are tired of looking at them and happy to part with them.)
Additionally, after looking through all of my mother's antique books (she has been a dealer her whole adult life but couldn't tell me what style it was specifically, only able to tell me that it is American and from the early 1900's)...but I am still completely uncertain as to what specific "style" this would be called.
Its as thought Arts & Crafts and Art Nouveau had a child. The lines are strong but there is a delicateness to the details which is what is completely baffling me and all of my resources.
If anyone has any input, I'm still listening.
Thank you!
"its as though Arts & Crafts and Art Nouveau had a child."
It is very common to see blended styles. For every manufacturer out there on the bleeding edge of any style, creating pure Art Deco or whatever, there were dozens of them who would refresh an existing design with a few doodads from the latest style.
Y'know? There was a time a century or so back that oak was NOT considered a finish wood. Don't judge yesterday's ethic with today's. The veneer supposition has merit.
That said, if you have an oak skirt and oak legs and a crude clumsy awkward top, pretty much everything will be a guess, including the possibility of a rebuilt table. Nobody will be able to tell without getting up close in person.


text: VOYA - Jennifer M. Miskec In Tony Hawk's 900 Revolution series, Omar is a beach boy skateboarder from sunny California; Dylan prefers the challenges of city skating in NYC. Amy shreds the mountains of Colorado on her snowboard; Joey rides BMX in the Utah desert. Though these four teenagers are from different locations and walks of life, all four have something in common: They conduct the energy of a magical skateboard. The legend goes that when skateboarder Tony Hawk landed the first ever 900, his dedication and skill imbued his skateboard with a magical energy that caused it to explode into energized bits. When in possession of a fragment, a chosen few can actually channel the energy to take their talents to extreme new levels. Together, the chosen make up a covert group called The Revolution that work to protect the power and keep it away from those who might use the magic to destroy the world. n each of the first volumes of the series, we meet one of the chosen—first Omar in Volume 1, then Dylan in Volume 2, and Amy and Joey in Volumes 3 and 4—along with those who identify and organize the chosen. Each young teen's story is a bit different, with different but equally rich sport and location imagery. The series is clearly directed at an audience who loves fast-paced action stories and extreme sports, but the descriptions are such that non-enthusiasts will not be confused or bored. A quick and action-packed read, this prose and graphic novel hybrid series is a sure thing for reluctant readers. (Tony Hawk's 900 Revolution) Reviewer: Jennifer M. Miskec

Need help identifying plants
I received several mixed baskets of sympathy plants from my moms memorial. I need help identifying please. One does not look well, crispy... Can it be saved?
Thank you!
Hi & welcome to GardenWeb! So sorry about your loss.
It's a fern of some type. Do you know why it got crispy? Too dry or too wet? Did it get put suddenly in direct sun outside? Knowing why it looks like that would help predict it's potential for recovery.
We received the plant Thursday 5/23 at the church in SC, my husband I drove back to northern VA the following Friday. It was in the back seat of the car (along with the other plants). Honestly, I have not watered since... It's a little over a week later... And today I'm enjoying a relaxing gardening day:)
Maybe too much sun on the drive back? Maybe dried out?
Ahhh, relaxing sounds great! Hopefully it's overwhelmed from dryness, not from a combo of high heat/too much moisture. Impossible to say from the pic.
If it feels very lightweight and the soil feels dry, I would drench (with gentle water, not a vigorous blast or dump of it,) so water comes out of the holes in the bottom (out of the bowl, in sink or shower.) Check a few minutes later to see if it really did get wet throughout, visually and feeling if it's a lot heavier. If not, water it gently but well again.
When it's finished dripping, then you can put it back in the bowl. Then don't water again until it seems mostly dried out, but not parched like the desert. Put it in a window that gets a little sun in the morning if you can (east) and see which parts stay green, which turn brown. Then you can trim the brown parts off so it doesn't look bad anymore. Hopefully you'll soon see new little fuzzy fronds start forming at the soil level.

Thanks Rachel ! This ones going allright, We can stay on this one...
Anymore to say other than beautiful on the above chart?
I may need to look at the astro.com version but I am in schock that the houses are perfectly placed in their signs. It seems divine. MC in Cap with the sun..IC in Cancer with the moon..this seems to me less of an opposition than a tension that helps the individual make the necessary generational leap to coming forth into the world and speaking, learning..reminds me of idyllic stories of the philosopher-king..
The only imperfection I sense is Uranus in 12th, haven't seen that before, feels a bit unstable, but there could be more for me to learn..and with this opposing Saturn in the 6th, which although blessed in Virgo is in a Leo-ruled 6th house and seems as if there is some growing up to be done at some stage, growing from Leo into Saturn, this Saturn cannot afford to be distracted by Uranus and whimsical natures, it is needed to hold up the cross and the growth process for this individual to bridge heaven and earth, moon and sun.. the real "play" and childlike nature for this person will come from the mystery.
Who is it?
Hi Rachel ! I am stunned to hear all this, It confirms everything I was taught. A Knights Templar Bishop taught me that the Philosopher King was indeed born on this day.. But Im not privy to where he is now.
I only know that when I was in a group praying for him under a gateway, glass had shattered in my hand and behind me..So powerful was the energies to bless this incoming souls journey into incarnation.
Its the famous alignment of December 23, 2007. Not very long ago.
If this birthday was drawn into its true symbology, here is what it looks like...
I see challenges as well. Considering the Uranus placement and the Saturn placement, what is the growth transit that will truly be needed ?
Ive been wanting to upload the Sun Card of the tarot with the toddler riding the white horse. =)
That's helpful as a confirmation and lots of good info. The snake on the cross is quite intriguing. Changes things around a bit and it seems as if there must be a progression from Cancer/Mars earthly realm, to Saturn, matrurity, work & practice, and then Uranus in 12th plays a different role as a rung on the ladder of Kundalini. Uranus being seeking freedom from 12th house prison, which resonates with the story about the broken glass. It strikes me that the chart seemed rather non-human until this bit. Now we have an adventure like the Iliad in which this individual now must go through a Uranian breakthrough from confined spaces mentally and/or physically, only after which they can grow into the heavenly Scorpio Neptunian and Capricornian Sun/Son, only after the human experience, the fall (the teshuva shall we say) there becomes something mythic and riveting about this character, something of a divine nature in the sense of encompassing more than only the orderly.
What is the toddler on the white horse? :)
Nice ! I am humbled, youre at the level of a Master teacher.. Uranus is the prison house. Adolf had that as his chart. Matter of fact, much of his chart did realign not that long ago... We are entering into a parallel with WW2
Back to the chart...If it is in Pisces does that entail the waters of mem, the hanged man? Path 23? Interesting that it is December 23 of that chart.
Where is he trapped at ? I heard one of my peers call him Hermes. But where did he go to? . Is he in a genie bottle? lol... A womb? A jail? I sense he is trapped, so I study thesalonians to see if this is the restraint...
Teshuva, the fall, the essence behind Yom Kippur. I see that Mars is in its fall position in Cancer.. the chart is sad to me in that aspect. Is he Ares wounded by Diomedes?
Sun Card, That is the Lord of the Fire of the World. And Hod to Yesod...
I see the manchild of Revelation..

Plan readied for Barrow benefits shake-up
Last updated at 15:49, Monday, 11 June 2012
AN action plan has been devised to ensure tenants know how benefit reforms will affect them.
From April 2013, a host of changes are set to be made to the welfare benefits system by the government.
As part of the plans, housing benefits will be scrapped and will be included in a new universal credit scheme.
Barrow Borough Council has prepared a welfare reform action plan to ensure social housing tenants and the council is ready for the changes.
The plan is set to be presented to the council's housing management forum on Thursday and Jane Coles, business support manager, said in a report for the forum that the overhaul presents a challenge to the council.
She said: "In considering the council's approach it is important to balance the responsibilities of the council as a landlord and the wellbeing of our tenants.
"While we do not have access to comprehensive income records of all our tenants we do know that by far the largest percentage of tenants receive housing benefit.
"Any changes to the benefit system of the magnitude being progresses poses a risk to the housing service's income and the ability to provide service levels agreed with tenants."
The council will no longer be paid housing benefits directly and instead will have to liaise with tenants to ensure that payment plans for the new amounts are set up.
The plan aims to raise awareness of the changes and will offer financial guidance to help people pay.
Tenants whose house is under-occupied, for example a three-person family living in a four-bedroom house, will see their benefits reduced and the council has adapted a 'best use of stock' policy which will aim to limit the amount of people who are transferred to properties which are too big for them. This could also see some families being asked if they would like to move through a mutual exchange programme.
Ms Coles said more communication was needed to ensure that people are aware of the changes.
She said: "From informal discussion with tenants and their representatives at various meetings over the past few months, it would appear that while there is some knowledge of the changes it would be appropriate for the housing service to ensure it complements any information produced by the Department for Work and Pensions to ensure tenants are aware of the implications from a tenants' perspective."
The meeting takes place at Barrow Town Hall on Thursday at 2pm.

Have your say
While i understand it is not the best idea in the world to have a single person living in a 4 bedroom house, how inhumane it is to shove a person out of a house they may have lived in for many years to save a couple of quid in housing benefit. To give an example my sons 1 bed flat (council) as it is part furnished is £88 per week and a 3 bed unfurnished house (council) is about £80! I predict it will result in a lot of people getting evicted as they will not be able to meet the shortfall in rent. If they have children the council are obliged to house them...what a mess. David Cameron hang your rich well housed head in shame.

To Move Wright House to Italy, All It Takes Is a Buyertags: NYT, Italy, Frank Lloyd Wright
Paolo Bulletti has a dream. The Italian architect wants to transport a house built by the distinguished U.S. architect Frank Lloyd Wright from its current site in New Jersey to the hills of Fiesole, near Florence....
Everyone acknowledges that the timing is poor. The economic situation in Italy means public and private funds are in short supply and, with the general election campaign under way, no mayor would lend his name to such an extravagant project.
Nonetheless, Fulvio Irace, a professor of history at Milan Polytechnic, thinks that public institutions in Florence or Fiesole or even Venice should consider buying the house....

Human Astrocytes Developed From Stem Cells 92
from the engineer-a-better-you dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
Astrocytes are linked with the repair of spinal cord injuries. And as of 2008 stem cells can be made from pretty much any normal adult cell http://www.nature.com/stemcells/2008/0810/081030/full/stemcells.2008.142.html [nature.com] .
The possibilities for the rehab of spinal cord injury patients is enough to make this an easy application of stem cell research, which might just earn the stem cell researchers some much needed good publicity from Washington.
If you didn't have to work so hard, you'd have more time to be depressed.

The latest hilarious music video launched by Jedward not only brings smile to our face but also features our favorite star from Celebrity Big Brother, Perez Hilton, in it. The latest video titled "Make Your Own Luck" includes a cameo appearance by the celebrity blogger. The new single scheduled to launch on January 30, exactly two months after the release of Ferocious. The duo of John and Edward also intend to launch their 4th studio album this year.
This would be an amazing achievement since it is more than Ed Sheeran, Ellie Goulding, or Adele have racked up. Nobody knew that the pair had such extensive back catalogue. As for the latest video, it is not the only time the eccentric pair has collaborated with Perez. The blogger also made an appearance in one of their previous video, titled "Bad Behavior". Nobody knew they were friends for a long time. Read more »

Lionel Richie's name has been confirmed for the Glastonbury Festival 2015. It would be the very first UK festival gig of the singer's career. Glastonbury Festival's official Twitter page said: "We're pleased to announce that @LionelRichie will make his first ever UK festival appearance at Glastonbury 2015!"
According to reports, Richie told that he is really very excited to play at the Glastonbury music festival next year as it is one of the most iconic fests in the world. The event has a magnificent history and the alumni of artists who have earlier played is really incredible. Therefore, he is honored to be a part of that.
He added that it would be a very special moment for him and he could not wait to share this with everyone. He could now say that he is playing at Glastonbury. Reports suggest that Richie would play the Sunday afternoon space that was earlier taken by artists such as Paul Simon and Kenny Rogers.
In the 2014 fest, Dolly Parton took the spot attracting a huge crowd to her space. Earlier Lionel Richie stated that he finds fest crowds just fascinating, because it is wild, loose and loud. The 'Dancing on the Ceiling' star also declared that he is bringing the All The Hits All Night Long tour to United Kingdom and Ireland for eleven dates.

There's One Every Single Minute
I'm going to heartily encourage everyone to head over to EndPoverty2015.org on Wednesday, March 25th for what's sure to be an extremely fascinating, important and productive discussion on the number one killer of young women in developing countries: pregnancy and childbirth. Every minute a young woman dies trying to give life in developing nations. The UN Millennium Campaign, in partnership with Women's eNews, will host a livechat with experts from Africa and Asia about this devastating maternal and newborn health reality. I'd be there but I'll be discussing my own version of maternal health in North Carolina at the Breastfeeding & Feminism Symposium at UNC-Greensboro.
Archbishop Challenges 9 year-old Rape Victim's Excommunication?
On Religion Dispatches, Frances Kissling has a fascinating dissection about the Archbishop ("the Vatican's top bioethics official") who spoke out against the Vatican's harsh actions last week when the Brazilian Cardinal publicly stated that the doctor who performed an abortion on the 9 year old rape victim, along with her parents, were excommunicated - while remaining silent about the perpetrator of the rape. Kissling notes that the Brazilian Cardinal, Cardoso Sobrinho, used the occasion to "warn others" of the punishment that awaits them should they decide in favor of abortion.
But Archbishop Fisischella may have opened the door for the Vatican to take a more compassionate view. Kissling writes:
Fisichella thought the action instead harmed "the credibility of our teaching which appears in the eyes of so many as insensitive, incomprehensible and lacking in mercy." He suggested that Sobrinho's first task in this situation should have been pastoral – to care for the young girl.

Standards? Licensing? That's Not What We Had In Mind
According to the Waco Tribune, a Waco, TX crisis pregnancy center says that if the state requires them to hire actual licensed health care professionals and abide by other state sanctioned health care standards in order to receive state government funds, they won't be able to remain in business. How's that for the "walk a mile in my shoes" proverb? Care Net Pregnancy Center in Waco will fight HB 2592 filed by Rep. Senfronia Thompson, D-Houston. The executive director of Care Net doesn't think they need these kinds of imposed "standards" of care for women in Texas:
McGregor also dismissed the idea that abortion alternative groups need licensed counselors on staff. The counselors at her agency aren't licensed but provide a valuable service to women, she said. If they think a woman needs more help than they can provide, they make referrals, she said.
The opposing view from Planned Parenthood:
Pam Smallwood, executive director of Planned Parenthood of Central Texas, said she supports the idea of abortion alternative groups being licensed. For one thing, a number of the organizations, including Care Net, advertise medical services. Yet, they only provide a small range of services that don't include key offerings that could reduce the number of abortions, such as contraceptives, she said.
"Not Emily's List" Pro-Choice Political Women's Group Hires New President
The Women's Campaign Forum, a "non-partisan organization dedicated to advancing the political participation and leadership of pro-choice women by providing the necessary encouragement, education and resources...", has hired Sam Bennett to head the organization.
If National Health Insurance Is the Answer, What's the Question?
How about: How can the United States lower our higher-than-any-other-industrialized-nation rates of teen pregnancy and birth?Buzzflash.com notes that while conservatives and progressives can argue about the causes, we know one thing for sure: access to health care is critical now more than ever:
Just having a job that provides benefits doesn't necessarily mean reproductive needs are covered, however. While American women have made great strides in the past decade in getting access to contraception and the whole contraception vs. Viagra debate was clearly blown out of proportion, the fact remains that 14 percent of private health insurance plans do not cover the basic need of contraception.

Does Rubbermaid fast track go on sale?
Each year Elfa discounts its shelving in January. Does anyone know if Rubbermaid does something similar?
Oh, Graywings, I never thought I'd be jealous of someone getting the fast track system but I am.
DH set up the garage perfectly 5 years ago when we moved in. He used the rubber-coated hangers you screw through the drywall into the studs. He was so proud of it I didn't have the heart to point out that he didn't allow for growth.
Now that we've purchased a few more shovels, irrigation hoses, ect...its becoming a mess. He keeps trying to hang multiple items on 1 hanger. I've mentioned the fast track system to him several times but he's determined to make his original idea work.
That fast track system really looks great. I hope it works for you. Good luck with your sale hunt and your project.
