Release update of OpenSwing: a free Swing based framework
OpenSwing is an open-source suite of advanced graphics components based on Swing toolkit: these components are more sophisticated of those provided with Swing and can be manipolated directly inside the UI designer of the IDE.
It is also a framework that provides data binding mechanism between components and data model, based on the MVC paradigm. Data model is based on Java Beans (POJOs) and it is supported in all OpenSwing components, such as Grid control or components container.
OpenSwing provides a complete solution (a framework and advanced swing components with data binding capabilities) to quickly and easily develop rich-client applications.
It is possibile to apply this framework to develop java stand-alone applications, without an underlying database, or to develop more classic two layered client-server applications (front-end + database) or to develop three tiered applications (i.e. Swing front-end + HTTP + java servlet + database), or to develop distributed rich-client applications (Swing front-end + server side applications remotely accessed via RMI or another protocol + database).
Openswing includes a collection of classes that can be used:
- to create the application front-end, through a collection of advanced graphics controls, comparable to those provided by traditional RAD development environments like Visual Basic or Delphi.
Graphics controls include label control, text field, text formatted field, multi-line text field, numeric field, currency field, calendar, grid, properties grid, tree, tree combined with a grid, lookup, gantt diagram, buttons with image, combo-box, combo-box multi-column, radio button, check-box, list, list multi-column, wizard panel, image panel, splash screen, dialog windows, tip of the day frame, progress bar/panel/dialog, licence agreement panel.
Grid usage is especially sophisticated: it allows columns or rows locking, data pagination, columns filtering and sorting, persistent storage of grid "state" (sorting/filtering conditions, columns position/width/visibility), data exporting and the grid model is based on a list of POJOs as for a tree component and as for a panel of graphics controls whose data model is based on a POJO. POJO support is extended to the entire set of graphical components that compose the GUI.
Graphics controls are compliance with Java Beans specifications, so they can be used in the UI designer of an IDE, like JBuilder, JDeveloper, NetBeans, Eclipse to the purpose of creating graphical windows by drawing them in the UI designer, likewise with other non java RAD environment.
Building grids is expecially easy: a grid can be graphically composed by using the UI designer of the adopted IDE and by dropping on it the grid's columns and setting their properties by using the property manager of the IDE.
- The framework allows to create applications based on SDI (Single Document Interface) paradigm or based on MDI frame (Multiple Document Interface) and internal frames, including pull-down menu, tree menu and many front-end customization levels.
- to create business logic tier + data-access tier, through a set of utility classes that simplify development process; this utility layer may be omitted and replaced by other popular server-side frameworks/ORM tools, like Spring, Hibernate or any other proprietary framework.
OpenSwing provides some utility classes that simplify Hibernate integration with OpenSwing, iBatis integration with OpenSwing and comunication between OpenSwing and Spring Framework, so that you can develop UI layer using OpenSwing and develop server-side layer using Spring and/or Hibernate or iBatis.
- to create a comunication tier placed between presentation-tier (application front-end) and business-logic tier. This tier may be easly extended, by developing an own comunication layer above the standard layer offered by OpenSwing, to meet specific needs (such as RMI comunication with EJB, SOAP or other comunication mechanisms with server-side applications).
Moreover, this framework provides some basic features that cover many issues that usually arise in enterprise application development, such as data extraction from grids, document viewing on the most popular desktop applications (like reports on Excel, CSV, XML, HTML, PDF, RTF), activities logging, internationalization support (label translation, date format, decimal symbols, grouping, currency support, etc.), authorization management according to grants owned by connected user.
All these framework components are strongly decoupled each other, by means of an accurate objects design, based on interface adoption that facilitate the implementation of new behaviours for base framework components.
It can be used with java 1.4, 1.5 or 1.6.

There was something about the old Fiat Panda that stopped you taking the piss out of it (well, too much, anyway). Its disarming simplicity and all-round cheapness persuaded you to forgive its boxy looks and resonant tinny ringing noise with every slammed door - despite the fact it was probably rusting around you.
When Fiat resurrected its still-charming and considerably less boxy hatch three years ago, all the charm of its predecessor remained - and this time it was properly screwed together. For a Fiat, at least. And now, with the launch of this hottish 100HP version, it should thaw even the coldest Fiatophobe heart.
It's the sporty derivative the cheery Panda range has been crying out for. Using, funnily enough, a 100bhp version of the 1.4-litre Starjet engine found in the Punto and a selection of useful chassis mods, the 100HP is an addictive go-faster shopping hatch that you'll park at Tesco with a smile on your face.
Suspension has been dropped by 20mm and stiffened by 25 percent at both ends. Larger brakes have been fitted front and rear and there's an amusing little Sport button on the dash that sharpens throttle response and reduces the steering assistance for a bit more feel. That, coupled with an infectious (but not too invasive) induction roar, gives the 100HP some of the character of Abarth-tuned Fiats of old.
I'll be the first to admit that 100bhp doesn't sound like much these days, but the Panda only weighs 1015kg. On paper, that means it'll crack 62mph in 9.5 seconds and nudge 115mph flat out in sixth. On the road, you have just enough power to entertain and a chuckable chassis that won't let you get into any real trouble - or make you bite off your own tongue over potholes.
And it looks good too. It's quite easy for sportier variants of cars to end up being beaten a bit with the chav stick, but Fiat has subtly enlarged the wheelarches, added an in-keeping bodykit and a tasteful set of 15-inch alloys. Can't really defend the chrome tailpipe, though.
Still, at less than ten grand, it's hard to knock Fiat's new flagship Panda for anything. It's cheap, it has five doors, genuine driving appeal and a certain indefinable cool. And this time even the doors shut with a clunk.

"IBM is poised to gain a 'stranglehold' over the Linux community, Gartner warned today. Speaking exclusively to vnunet.com, George Weiss, research director for server and operating systems at Gartner, said: "The biggest problem IBM has is it that appears to the Linux community that it is trying to take over the Linux momentum and grab what this OS has to offer."
"Weiss said he could see a day when "80 per cent of the revenues, indirect or direct, attributed to Linux will go into IBM coffers unless companies like HP, Red Hat and VA Linux smarten up their act. IBM will have a stranglehold on the community."
"IBM told Weiss about its plans for the open source operating system in a meeting this week. "They are aware of the problem. They said they were trying to contribute back to the community and mentioned making the source code for Sash [development software for desktops] for Linux available. IBM people are gracious but they have a business to run. It's a delicate balance."

US 20040049547 A1 Abstract Methods for facilitating answering requests for help or information between requesters of that help or information using digital devices and remote helpers selected to answer those requests. In one method, a computer user clicks on a help display object, resulting in a help response message being sent from a remote helper, including a network or Internet address for the helper. Accepting the help response can result in a human helper appearing in a video screen object and providing information or help through video, audio, screen sharing, and remote computer control methodologies. In some methods, a help facilitator organization uses data communication links into educational institutions, classroom located servers and digital devices coupled to those data communication links. The facilitator organization may receive help requests over the Internet from retail end user requesters or from groupings of corporate employee requesters. The help requests may be routed through the facilitator organization, with students selected to answer the help requests based at least in part on the availability of the students, and on the subject matter mastery of the students. Once selected, a more direct communication link between the requester and the student can be established.
Claims(40) 1. A method for providing information over a communications network, the method comprising the steps of:
(a) receiving a help request in a subject area from a networked digital device user over the network, wherein the digital device is selected from the group consisting of personal computers, hand held computers, personal digital assistants, hard wired computer terminals, wireless computer terminals, cellular telephones, hard wired telephones, wireless telephones, embedded devices, interactive TV and combinations thereof, (b) selecting a student to provide help to the user, wherein the student has knowledge in the subject area, the student is available to provide the help in the subject area, and the student is in a supervised class setting in an educational institution at the time of the help request; and (c) establishing a communication link between the user and the student over the network to allow the selected student to provide help to the user over the network while in the supervised class setting. 2.

Dev : Haath nahi kamar
NT : mera haath chodo
Dev : bro is not holding you idiot. He is holding Dr.
NT : But you are holding me you Moron.
Dev : Ohh (he left his hold on her hand)
Maan was still holding Geet and was looking into her
Hazel eyes which held him capitive.Geet was struggling to stand on her
feet but because of Maan's grip on her waist, she was having a tuff time
to stand on her feet.
Geet : Err.. Mr. Khuruna i'm fine.
Maan : Hmm
Geet : Mr. Khuruna, i'm fine. (she indicated him with her eyes showing his hold on her feet.
Maan made her stand on her feet but was embarrased a little due to his behaviour. He said a sorry to her and she just smiled at him and discussed about Dadi's health and after discussion she left giving another sweet smile.
Dadi saw Maan-holding-Geet wala scene and was happy
and she went to dreamland where Maan and Geet were running towards each
other smiling but was disturbed by Dev's and NT's fight. She gave them
dagger looks but no use because they were busy fighting with each other.
Maan then shouted at them and made them quiete. Maan sat beside Daadi
and enquired how she was feeling.
Geet's Apartment
Geet came late after duty at night. She after quick
shower and dinner went to her Husband's photo and started telling about
her day. She was smiling while telling about the fighting couples (Nt
& Dev). she suddenly missed him and thought about their moments together.
Geet came dressed in her school uniform and had school bag on. She looked really cute in that navy blue skirt and white shirt with her pony hair. She was really excited. She came running towards the dinning hall and she sat there with a big smile on her face. Anurag, Sneha, Pari, Prem and Raunak was also sitting but they ignored her. Raunak really liked Geet as she was also a child like his children , but hated the fact that this Geet child is his brother's wife. She saw Prena was serving food and waited for her to serve food for her too, but was dissapointed to see that Prena too ignored her. They were busy eating food and totally ignored her. When she was about to take toast from the plate, Prem took the whole plate and kept it aside. her eyes were filled and she was really hurt. Rahul who was coming to dinning table to have breakfast saw this and was hurt to see a tear faced Geet. He came and sat beside her. He took jug of Orange juice and poured into into her glass and also cut fruits was served to her. He made sure that she ate it. He saw her dull face and decided to distract her thoughts.
Rahul : Geet
Geet : Jii
Rahul : So are you ready to go to school naa?
Geet : Haan (excited)
Rahul : Good. You can go with Pari, Sneha, Anurag and Prem. They are also studying in same school.
Geet : Jii (smiling)
Pari :Nahi, Car is full with we four+ driver.
Rahul : i'm sure she can adjust.
Prem : But we can't adjust. (Angry)
Rahul : Prem (Shouted)
Prem was really angry and left the dinning hall with Pari, Anurag and Sneha. Rahul saw Geet's hurt face.
Rahul :Geet, Don't worry. They will accept you and will become your friend.
Geet nodded her head. Rahul dropped Geet to her new school. She was really nervous seeing a huge building with large gate and 3 watchman. Rahul saw her face and hold her hand, squeezing it gently.
Rahul : Geet don't worry. If you need something call me.
(he handed her a mobile)
Geet : I don't know how to use it. (scared)
Rahul : OK, I will teach you how to make a call and also how to receive call. ( He taught her)
Geet : Jii, ye tho bohut aasan hai ( Smiling)
Rahul : I know. Take this money Geet, you will need it.
Geet : Par kyun?
Rahul : Just keep it. (smiling)
Geet : Thank you
Rahul: Kyun?
Geet : I love to study.
Rahul : I know. Now go fast or else you will be late. (he kissed her forehead and smiled at her.)
She got off the car and waved at him and went inside.
Pre-cap : Maan amused
Geet crying

Definitions for sacred lotus
This page provides all possible meanings and translations of the word sacred lotus
Princeton's WordNet
lotus, Indian lotus, sacred lotus, Nelumbo nucifera(noun)
native to eastern Asia; widely cultivated for its large pink or white flowers
Sacred Lotus
Nelumbo nucifera, known by a number of names including Indian lotus, sacred lotus, bean of India, or simply lotus, is one of two species of aquatic plant in the family Nelumbonaceae. The Linnaean binomial Nelumbo nucifera is the currently recognized name for this species, which has been classified under the former names, Nelumbium speciosum and Nymphaea nelumbo, among others. Names other than Nelumbo nucifera are obsolete synonyms and should not be used in current works. This plant is an aquatic perennial. Under favorable circumstances its seeds may remain viable for many years, with the oldest recorded lotus germination being from that of seeds 1,300 years old recovered from a dry lakebed in northeastern China. A common misconception is referring to the lotus as a water lily, an entirely different plant, as can be seen in the center of the flowers, which lack the structure that goes on to form the distinctive circular seed pod in the Nelumbo nucifera. Native to Tropical Asian nations and Queensland, Australia, it is commonly cultivated in water gardens. It is also the national flower of India and Vietnam.

Description This application is related to previous application Ser. No. 09/249,293, filed on Feb. 12, 1999, and issued as U.S. Pat. No. 6,079,157, on Jun. 27, 2000. 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates primarily to portable, removable security gates and barriers (hereinafter, �gates�) of the type temporarily installed in hallways and doorways of buildings for the purpose of preventing children and pets from passing into areas from which they are to be excluded. More particularly, the invention improves upon prior art gates by adding both an illuminated warning beacon and an optional audible alarm, enabling persons to see and/or hear the gate in the dark. This invention finds utility in any building or controlled exterior area wherein a gate is placed, and where a person may possibly stumble over or walk into the gate if the latter is not visible due to darkness. 2. Description of the Prior Art Security gates are employed from time to time to prevent children and pets from gaining access to certain areas within a building, such as a home. A gate normally has apparatus for temporary and removable engagement of wall and door jamb surfaces for mounting, although they may be permanently installed, as well. The gate may remain in place for days, weeks, or months during a period when it is desired to control access of children and pets to specific portions of a building. If a gate remains in place overnight, or during other conditions when it is obscured by darkness, then it is possible for people to walk into or stumble over the gate. This may arise due to forgetfulness or because a visitor to the house is unfamiliar with the gate. In many cases, little serious injury or damage ensues. However, in some situations such as a gate placed at the top of a flight of stairs, injury can potentially be severe. Should a person fall over or past the gate, he or she could possibly fall down the flight of stairs. Potential consequences of such an occurrence are extreme. Apart from hazard of injury and the nuisance of being obliged to reinstall the gate, a person walking into the gate may cause damage to the building. It is an easy matter for the apparatus engaging a building wall or door jamb to chip paint or to gouge a hole or scratch into an architectural finish such as paint. The prior art has provided security gates with various amenities. U.S. Pat. No. 5,437,115, issued to T. Brent Freese et al. on Aug. 1, 1995, U.S. Pat. No. 5,457,914, issued to Marvin B. Johnson on Oct. 17, 1995, U.S. Pat. No. 5,535,552, issued to Carl M. Stern on Jul. 16, 1996, and U.S. Pat. No. 5,809,694, issued to Mark Anthony Postans on Sep. 22, 1998, all illustrate security gates which are used to control access within buildings. In each case, the subject gate lacks both the illuminated beacon and audible alarm as seen in the present invention, and controls and power supply associated with the novel gate. None of the above inventions and patents, taken either singly or in combination, is seen to describe the instant invention as claimed. The present invention improves upon security gates by providing an illuminated beacon and optional audible alarm so that a security gate may be seen and/or heard at night and during other conditions of darkness. The improved gate has both manual and automatic control features activating and inhibiting operation of the illuminated beacon and audible alarm. Illumination emanates from one or more fixtures mounted on the gate. In various embodiments, the fixture illuminates the gate itself or transmits a visible signal away from the gate, or several fixtures both illuminate the gate and also transmit a visible signal. The illumination beacon warns passers by of the presence of the gate regardless of the nature of the beacon. Either type of beacon may constantly be on or may flash intermittently. The beacon is controlled by manual control, automatic control, or both. Operation of the beacon is inhibited in two embodiments by a photoelectric cell, which enables operation only in dark conditions, or by a programmable timer. In alternate embodiments, the beacon may normally remain off, illuminating responsive to detection of motion by an integral motion detector, in which case an audible alarm may also be incorporated into the design. Intensity of light may be controlled manually in discrete steps or progressively by a dimmer switch. The gate itself may be of any known type. Illustratively, it may comprise a fixed barrier that permanently obstructs a walkway, doorway, corridor, or the like as long as it is in place. As an alternative to a fixed barrier, the gate may be the pass-through type comprising a gate, either temporary or permanently installed. The gate may comprise a single panel which engages two opposed vertical surfaces by pressure. This type of gate will be called a pressure mounted gate. Alternatively, it may be of a type having parallel sliding panels which open to allow passage. In a further alternative, the gate may have a telescoping or scissors action, expansible barrier. In still another alternative, the gate may have a panel which rotates about a generally vertical axis. The gate may have diverse apparatus for holding itself in place other than being horizontally expansible. For example, it may have eyes which receive fasteners which are driven into a wall or other vertical environmental surface. This type will be called a wall mounted gate. The gate is modified from conventional construction to contain one or more batteries, lighting fixtures, audible alarm and controls. The controls optionally include a remote controller to enable the beacon to be controlled remotely. Accordingly, it is one object of the invention to render a security gate visible in dark conditions. It is another object of the invention to provide a security gate with an illuminated beacon. It is a further object of the invention to control when the illuminated beacon operates. Still another object of the invention is to operate the beacon automatically under dark conditions. A further object of the invention is to operate the beacon when a person or animal is moving in the vicinity of the novel gate. Another object of the invention is to provide an optional audible alarm activated by motion sensor when a person or animal is in the vicinity of the gate. An additional object of the invention is that the gate have its own power supply and controls carried thereon. Still a further object of the invention is selectively to illuminate the gate and to project a visible signal warning of the presence of the gate. Yet another object of the invention is to control intensity of the beacon. It is an object of the invention to provide improved elements and arrangements thereof in an apparatus for the purposes described which is inexpensive, dependable and fully effective in accomplishing its intended purposes. These and other objects of the present invention will become readily apparent upon further review of the following specification and drawings. Various other objects, features, and attendant advantages of the present invention will become more fully appreciated as the same becomes better understood when considered in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which like reference characters designate the same or similar parts throughout the several views, and wherein: FIG. 1 is a perspective view of one embodiment of the invention. FIG. 2 is a diagrammatic, front elevational view of the embodiment of FIG. 1. FIG. 3 shows an end elevational view of a second embodiment of the illumination system of the invention and FIG. 4 shows an end elevational view of a third embodiment of the illumination system of the invention. FIG. 5 is an electrical schematic illustrating a power and control scheme. FIG. 6 is an electrical schematic illustrating remote control. FIG. 7 is a diagrammatic, front view of still another embodiment of the invention. FIG. 1 of the drawings shows an illuminated, portable, removable safety gate 10 of the type employed for obstructing a passageway (not shown). Passageways that are controlled by gate 10 are typically corridors, doorways, fence opening and other points along areas intended for human occupancy and use. Such passageways may be bounded by walls, partitions, and other structural or architectural features which constrain people to travel along the passageway but not to depart laterally therefrom. For purposes of discussion of the present invention, the interior or tailgate of a motor vehicle will also be considered a passageway as the gate 10 could be used to constrain pets or cargo in the rear of a vehicle. For the purposes of this invention, gate 10 may be either of the type permanently obstructing a passageway as long as the gate is installed along the passageway, or alternatively a device intended to facilitate authorized passage. In most cases, passage requires merely the ability to open the gate 10, as gates are typically intended to deny passage to children and pets. Gates facilitating passage include those having a panel which pivots about a vertical axis, those which expand to obstruct a passageway but can be compressed to create an opening or gap, and those having parallel upright panels which telescope to create an opening or gap. The novel improvements are equally applicable to all varieties of gates, including permanent gates, such as in an outdoor fence. For purposes of disclosure, however, a temporary, swinging gate will be used, depicting a typical mounting method for such a gate. Since the novel improvements are applicable to all gate types, the method of mounting is, likewise, immaterial to the invention and may be either temporary or permanent. All gates 10 encompassed by the present invention share similar structures. These structures typically include a frame, such as that indicated at 12. Frame 12 supports a gate panel 14 which may be solid or partially open to pass air and light. Gate panel 14 may be rigid and capable of self-support so that a separate frame is not required. Alternatively, panel 14 may be flexible or resilient. Regardless of the precise nature of frame 12 and gate panel 14, gate panel 14 is supported in vertical orientation by frame 12. Frame 12 further comprises vertical channels 16, 18 and horizontal upper channel 20 and horizontal lower channel 22. Gate 10 of the type encompassed by the invention is intended to be easily installed and removed, although it may be permanently installed. Gate 10 has mounting apparatus 24 adapted to mount frame 12 in an erect position to at least one environmental surface (not shown). The mounting device forms no part of the invention and could be any of a variety which are known to the art. Gate panel 14 is, typically, pivotally supported on one post 24 and latches to the other post 24 by a tongue 32 which is received in a suitable receptacle 34. Receptacle 34 will be understood to include apparatus for releasably retaining tongue 32 when tongue 32 enters receptacle 34. Pivotal support of gate panel 14 is accomplished by a suitable hinge or journaling arrangement indicated at 36. In the embodiment of FIG. 1, posts 24 are joined by a strut 38 which is firmly fixed to both, thereby preventing posts 24 from deflecting unduly as gate 10 is wedged between two opposing walls. Typically, gate 10 has expansible members such as screws 28 which can be adjusted to contact or operably engage the walls or other fixed, permanent, generally vertical environmental surfaces, thereby supporting gate by wedging. However, other mounting elements may be substituted for screws 28. Illustratively, gate 10 may have elements (not shown) which project laterally from gate 10 by cam action or other actuation schemes to contact the supporting walls. In a further alternative, projecting eyes (not shown) for receiving fasteners (not shown) which may be driven into the supporting walls. Thus far, features of gate 10 are generally conventional. Gate 10 departs from prior art gates in that it has integral illumination source for safety purposes. The electrically operated illumination source such as lamps 40 is supported on frame 12. Lamps 40 have reflective covers 42 adapted to reflect light downwardly onto the front side of gate panel 12. As employed herein, �front� is for semantic designation of one of the broad or large ends or faces of gate panel 12. The rear or opposed large end or face of gate panel 12 could also be illuminated by additional lamps (not shown) or by a different arrangement which will be described hereinafter. FIG. 2 shows the electrical system which operates lamps 40. The electrical system includes a source of electrical power such as battery 44, a control switch 46, and electrical conductors 48, 50, 52 connecting lamps 40 to battery 44. Conductors 48, 50, 52 will be understood to include the number of separate conductors required to accomplish the recited functions, even though they are depicted as a single element. It should also be understood that a power source other than a battery could be used. A control knob 54 accessible from the exterior of gate 10 operates switch 46. Switch 46 may turn lamps 40 on and off if desired. Alternatively, switch 46 may merely control intensity of light generated by lamps 40, leaving on-off control to other components. In the latter case, switch 46 may be a dimmer switch arranged to vary illumination of said illumination source in a continuous, progressive manner. Alternatively, switch 46 could be a three position switch arranged to limit illumination to three different levels. Both dimmer switches and three position switches and their circuitry are known, and will not be further described herein. FIG. 3 illustrates how a single lamp 60 may be employed to project light to both front and rear sides 62, 64 of gate panel 12. Lamp 60 has a reflective cover 65 which overlaps both front and rear sides 62, 64, and is dimensioned and configured to reflect light as indicated by arrows A. In FIG. 4, an additional lamp 66 is configured to project light away from gate panel 12. This arrangement provides a visual signal which signals presence of gate 10, but does not directly illuminate gate 10. In preferred embodiments of the invention, the illumination source is operated by an automatic on-off controller. This automatic controller may take several forms, which may be employed singly or in any preferred combination. Referring now to FIG. 5, a programmable timer 68 operates the illumination source at predetermined times and extinguishes the illumination source at other times. In addition, a light-sensitive (photo-electric) switch 70 is included in the electrical system, and connects the illumination source to electrical power responsive to sensing a predetermined threshold of diminished ambient light levels. A motion sensor 72 is mounted on gate 10 in a suitable location for sensing motion within a predetermined distance of itself, and makes electrical connection responsive to sensing motion within its range. Motion sensor 72 may optionally control audible alarm 56 in addition to or in place of lamp(s) 40, 60 or 66. Audible alarm 56 could be a bell, horn, buzzer, speaker or any other audible alarm as is known in the art. It would be evident to one skilled in the art that the duration of illumination of lamps 40, 60 or 66 and the sounding of audible alarm 56 would be determined by the setting of motion sensor 72. FIG. 6 illustrates an embodiment of the invention wherein a remote controller 74 generates command signals. A signal receiver 76, 78, or 80 is located on or proximate gate 10. Each signal receiver is adapted to receive the command signals and to control the illumination source by its respective controller 68, 70, or 72 responsive to command signals generated by remote controller 74. Remote controller 74 may operate on radio frequency signals, may generate infrared signals, or may utilize any suitable radiant energy signals. Receivers 76, 78, 80 will be understood to be connected to power of battery 44, or other external power source, although this feature is omitted for brevity in the drawings. As shown in FIG. 7, power may be derived from a plug and cord assembly 82. Plug and cord assembly 82 may be connected directly to lamp 40 and the electrical controls, or may be connected to a battery recharger 84, which is in turn connected to battery 44. It is to be understood that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, but encompasses any and all embodiments within the scope of the following claims. Patent Citations

Australian universities' strategic goals of student exchange and participation rates in outbound exchange programmes

Title | Australian universities' strategic goals of student exchange and participation rates in outbound exchange programmes |
Author | Daly, Amanda; Barker, Michelle Carmel |
Journal Name | Journal of Higher Education Policy and Management |
Year Published | 2010 |
Place of publication | Australia |
Publisher | Routledge |
Abstract | International student exchange programmes are acknowledged as one aspect of a broader suite of internationalisation strategies aimed at enhancing students' intercultural understanding and competence. The decision to participate in an exchange programme is dependent on both individual and contextual factors such as student exchange policies and programmes of the home university. The aim of the current study was to demonstrate the relationship between participation rates in Australian university exchange programmes and the presence of a clear strategic goal specific to student exchange. While there was a significant relationship between the specific strategic goal of student exchange and programme participation rates, the implementation process appears to play a greater role in influencing student participation. It is suggested that the success of an exchange programme is moderated by organisational factors such as leadership and organisational culture, national government international education policies, and the level of resourcing and accountability. |

Home / Clinical Trials / Eligibility
Every clinical trial has a protocol, or action plan, that describes what will be done in the trial, how the trial will be conducted, and why each part of the trial is necessary. The protocol also includes guidelines for who can and cannot participate in the trial. These guidelines, called eligibility criteria, describe the characteristics that all interested people must have before they can take part in the trial. Eligibility criteria can include age, sex, medical history, and current health status. Eligibility criteria for cancer treatment trials often include the type and stage of cancer, as well as the type(s) of cancer treatment already received.
Enrolling people who have similar characteristics helps ensure that the outcome of a trial is due to the intervention being tested and not to other factors. In this way, eligibility criteria help researchers obtain the most accurate and meaningful results possible.

A bit murky here and just starting to rain but managed to get a run done before the downpour. Quiet out apart from 2 dog walkers and a distant other runner.
Had a good swim at Heron Lake last night and was lucky that the rain arrived just as I finished because I'd left my towel and dry clothes outside on the grass. Kate, I didn't know you were there or I'd have looked out for you. Maybe next week coordinate arrival times and swim round together?
Datchet Lake tonight and waterskiing at Thorpe tomorrow!
Morning Kate and Chris.
Got a Puma Long Sleeved Technical Top last week for just £2.50 (down from £20) in our local Co-op.
Weird as our Co-op never usually stocks any sports wear
Kate :Have read 'Cavs' book too. Decent read, recorded 'Boy Racer' an ITV4 documentary about him and yet to watch it
Morning all beautiful day here. We were supposed to be going for a long mountain walk so I didn't run but OH hurt his toe at the beach yesterday so that has been postponed. Short local walk instead so may run this evening and try a bit harder on those steep bits
Be careful swimming in water contaminated with blue green algae I think it produces a toxin

Poll: Majorities ready for black or female president
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- In what may be good news for two potential Democratic presidential contenders -- Sens. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, and Hillary Clinton, D-New York -- a new CNN poll indicates that Americans may be ready for a black or a female president. However a large section of Americans, according to the poll, are skeptical that the nation is ready to break its string of 43 white, male heads of state.
Obama -- the Senate's only African-American -- has said he believes America is ready for a black president, and most of Americans who responded to the poll -- 62 percent-- agree with him. Of those who responded to the poll, conducted by Opinion Research Corporation for CNN, 32 percent believe America is not ready for a black president. A similar number of Americans -- 60 percent -- believe that the nation is ready for a female president, according to the poll. The margin of errors on both questions were plus-or-minus 3 percent. Whites were more likely than blacks, according to the poll, to believe that the U.S. is ready for a black president. Nearly two thirds, 65 percent, of whites believe that the nation was ready for a black president. However, a large portion of each race -- 42 percent of African-Americans and 31 percent of whites -- believe the country is not ready for an African-American president. The margin of error on racial breakdowns was plus-or-minus 5 percent. The poll involved 1,207 Americans. For full poll results and analysis of the findings watch a special edition of 'Paula Zahn Now,' tonight at 8 p.m., E.T. Poll results |

2006 Nissan Xterra Off-Road 4dr SUV (4.0L 6cyl 6M)
This is a great vehicle that I have put a lot of miles on in a short time (125k in 4 yr) great acceleration and 4 wheel drive will take you about anywhere. The clutch went after about 50k miles, this must be a systemic problem cause I have had 4 other nissans with manual transmissions too and have never replaced a clutch! The driver's seat could be more comfortable on long drives. After owning a maxima, I know what Nissan can do when they put their mind to the task! I would like better gas mileage, but who wouldn't? This vehicle, like all nissans, is perhaps the best value for the money. I will own this truck for years to come. Keep up the good work. Nissan Nation rocks on!

2006 Nissan Xterra Off-Road 4dr SUV (4.0L 6cyl 6M)
I went from owning an IS300 to something more reliable in the winter. The Xterra was my favorite compared to the 4runner. Right after the 60,000 mile warranty expired, problems, serious problems that should not occur on a relatively new vehicle. between 60k and 7ok miles shaking in the seat, took it to the mechanic and he said U joints, front and rear. After the initial replacement, more issues with rear wheel bearing, more random vibrating. 77k the heater/ac resistor went. $140 for that plus install, Livid at this point. Went to Nissan, no dice, telling me to go and pay for Nissan tech to diagnose. Terrible customer service from Nissan N. America. 3 weeks gone by, Mike has not called.

2006 Nissan Xterra Off-Road 4dr SUV (4.0L 6cyl 6M)
I've been getting 18 mpg for the first 1200+ miles overall. Seats are very comfortable, control layout is excellent. Transmission shifts perfectly, and the ratios are spot on. The traction control while off road really works great, you just keep going forward with very little wheel slip. I'd buy this vehicle again!

2006 Nissan Xterra Off-Road 4dr SUV (4.0L 6cyl 6M)
Excellent ride. Handles like a dream and rides like a car, not a truck. I do believe they could have put more thought into comfortability, but you give up comfort for more extreme usage. It handles the mountain roads I live on with pristine grace and I feel confident it will handle the roads when snow becomes a factor.

This is the estimated average annual insurance premium being charged in your state. The premium has been determined based on annual premium data for defined coverages (liability, comprehensive and collision) from a major insurer.
While this information is specific to vehicle make, model, model year and body type, your personal information is not taken into consideration and could greatly alter the actual premium quoted by an insurer. Factors that will affect your rate include your age, marital status, credit history, driving record, and the garaging address of your vehicle.

The Davis-Bacon Act requires all contractors and subcontractors performing work on federal or District of Columbia construction contracts or federally assisted contracts in excess of $2,000 to pay their laborers and mechanics not less than the prevailing wage rates and fringe benefits for corresponding classes of laborers and mechanics employed on similar projects in the area. In addition to the Davis-Bacon Act itself, Congress has added prevailing wage provisions to approximately 60 statutes which assist construction projects through grants, loans, loan guarantees, and insurance. These are referred to as �Related Acts.�

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data Well, I did an experiment to find a quantitative relationship between an objects acceleration and the slope of the surface it is on. This involves no other propulsion other than gravity itself. It is a very simple setup: A track with one end lifted to various heights, a motion detector hooked up to a computer to log speed, acceleration and position, and a little cart to go down the track. 2. Relevant equations 3. The attempt at a solution I used linear regression and the data collected, and got a=.14h-0.9 BUT I was expecting a square root somewhere in there and an asymptote of about 9.8 because it obviously wont accelerate faster than gravity. I already recieved credit for the work, but I want to know the actual formula (if any)
I'm sorry, but I just dont know. Remember, I'm only at a high school level. I've only gotten as far as kinematics, and through my electrical work, I know a bit about electrical theory. But i will look into this subject further. I want to impress the teacher
