Linux Product Insider: Online Dictionary of Engineering Science & Tech
The July 11th "Linux Product Insider" features the Online Dictionary of Engineering Science & Tech, Curl Data Kit, High Performance MySQL, Teach Yourself C++ in One Hour a Day and Sans Digital AccuNAS AN2L.
Here is this week's Linux product news:
ASTM International's Online Dictionary of Engineering Science and Technology
The new ASTM International's Online Dictionary of Engineering Science and Technology is no doorstop. It is an online, susbscription-based dictionary with 76,000 terms contained in more than 12,000 ASTM standards. ASTM is is one of the largest international standards development and delivery systems in the world. The definition of each term was written by technical experts in their field and reflects the sense in which that field uses the term. The dictionary also contains hot links from each standard designation to the full scope of the standard, as well as from from the ASTM committees to specific information on that committee. The search tools allow for search by main committee, phrase, keyword, designation number or alphabetically.
Curl Data Kit
The team over at Curl Inc. recently released its new Curl Data Kit (CDK), the second product to be delivered from the company's Open Source initiative. The CDK library complements Version 6.0 of the Curl Rich Internet Application (RIA) Platform and facilitates the building data-centric applications in Curl and provides support for local SQL databases. By allowing the storage and retrieval of data using the popular SQLite engine, the CDK library is an important foundation for occasionally connected computing (OCC) applications developed with Curl. Curl Inc.'s chief strategy officer Jnan Dash commented: "By adding the CDK library, we are allowing the Curl developer community to take advantage of the full power of SQLite, the most widely deployed SQL database engine in the world."
High Performance MySQL, Second Edition (O'Reilly)
A six-author team (Baron Schwartz et al.) is the brains behind the 2nd edition of High Performance MySQL: Optimization, Backups, Replication, and More, which the authors call "the mythical perfect MySQL book none of them had read but kept looking for." A complete re-write from the first edition, the book is focused not just on the needs of the MySQL application developer but also on the rigorous demands of the MySQL administrator, who needs to keep the system up and running no matter what the programmers or users may throw at the server. It also helps readers improve their skills and build fast reliable systems with MySQL, answering questions like "How can I set up a cluster of MySQL servers capable of handling millions upon millions of queries and ensure that things keep running even if a couple of the servers die?" Finally, the book helps dispel the mindset that it's OK to just throw hardware, power and cooling at computing problems, and get back to more of the punch-card mindset where everyone was concerned about doing things efficiently.
Teach Yourself C++ in One Hour a Day, 6th Edition(Sams)
The team of Jesse Liberty, Siddhartha Rao and Bradley L. Jones teamed up to pen the new 6th Edition of Teach Yourself C++ in One Hour a Day by Sams. If you still haven't fulfilled that New Year's resolution to finally learn C++, then pick up this book. Sams states that with this complete tutorial, give it one hour per day of your time and you'll have all the skills you need to begin programming in C++ and learn many advanced features and concepts. No previous programming experience is necessary. Other areas of focus include the Standard Template Library, containers, algorithms, object-oriented design, programming and analysis, inheritance and polymorphism and much more.

The Secret Life of Drugs in Parks
I was inspired recently to write an article about the problems drugs bring to the parks when I visited Olympic National Park earlier this summer. As recreational visitors to the national parks, we may not be aware of the battle behind the scenes to keep drugs out of the parks. I was told a story by a long-time law enforcement ranger that surprised me, and made me realize the burden to the resource they represent.
Pot Farmers Tilling Ground in Yosemite
Though much of the news involving national parks and marijuana plantations has been focused on Sequoia National Park, a bust the other day in Yosemite shows that that park has some pretty fertile ground for pot as well.

Generation Freedom The Middle East Uprisings and the Remaking of the Modern World (Paperback)
Author: Bruce Feiler |
Learn more about Generation Freedom:
On January 25, 2011, the world watched as Egyptian protestors stormed Cairo''s Tahrir Square, demanding the resignation of President Hosni Mubarak. After a partial resolution, another uprising took place in Tripoli against Libya''s dictator, Muammar Gaddafi. Now, a large portion of the Middle East and North Africa is aflame with protests and a spirit of reform. reform. Who are the people leading this revolt, and what does it say about the relationship between Islam and democracy? What is the future of Islam in an increasingly secular society? How do these young revolutionaries? cries forfair elections and freedom of speech compare to our own nation?s call for liberty in the past? |
From the Publisher:
Timely and provocative, Generation Freedom looks at the historic youth uprisings sweeping the Middle East and what they mean for the future of peace, coexistence, and relations with the West. At a time when the world is asking how the Arab Spring and the death of Osama bin Laden will reshape our times, Bruce Feiler, bestselling author of Walking the Bible and Abraham, offers a vivid behind-the-scenes portrait of history in the making. He marches with the daring young organizers in Liberation Square, confronts the head of the Muslim Brotherhood, and witnesses the dramatic rebuilding of a church at exactly the moment sectarian violence threatens the peaceful movement. Drawing on fifteen years of travels across the region, from Egypt to Israel, Iraq to Iran, Feiler brings his unprecedented experience to the most pressing questions: how the rise of freedom will affect terrorism; Middle East peace; and relations among Jews, Christians, and Muslims worldwide. Eloquent and thoughtful, Generation Freedom offers a hopeful vision of how this unrivaled upheaval will transform the world. |

Attack of the clonesDeadly Kaposi's sarcoma virus meets its match at UTHSC
San Antonio (Sept. 22, 2003) — Scientists at The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UTHSC) are believed to be the first in the world to have successfully cloned the virus that causes Kaposi's sarcoma, a deadly cancer most commonly seen in patients with AIDS. In addition, they have developed what is called a "shuttle system" for studying the cancer-causing traits of the Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), thus providing the first successful method for studying why and how KSHV causes cancer. Their research is in the September 2003 issue of the Journal of Virology.
The National Cancer Institute of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) awarded Shou-Jiang Gao, Ph.D., an associate professor in the departments of pediatrics, medicine, and microbiology and immunology at UTHSC, a $1.6 million grant over five years for his research. Scientists from England, Germany, Italy and more than 20 U.S. research institutions are lining up to collaborate with Dr. Gao and his team on this breakthrough.
KSHV, as with all herpesviruses, is a shrewd virus. It can lie dormant in its host for several years, waiting for the right moment when the host's immune system becomes weak. Then it attacks, transforming normal cells into cancer cells that wreak havoc on body tissues. The result is Kaposi's sarcoma — a disfiguring rash of purplish, often painful lesions that grow in the mouth and on the skin. In more aggressive cases, Kaposi's sarcoma damages internal organs such as the lungs, lymph nodes and digestive tract, often proving fatal. In the last 20 years, the vast majority of Kaposi's sarcoma cases have developed in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).
Dr. Gao and his colleagues are working with blood and tissue centers to study the KSHV infection rate in Texas. They found that 15 percent of blood donor samples studied in Texas were infected, as compared to 5 percent to 12 percent in other parts of the country. Studies also revealed a higher rate of specific strains of KSHV in Hispanic Kaposi's sarcoma patients in South Texas. Health experts are concerned that these figures raise the possibility that KSHV could be transmitted through blood transfusions during routine operations. Dr. Gao and his team received a grant of nearly $1 million from the NIH for this aspect of their research.
Dr. Gao also is on a mission to find the cancer-causing genes of the virus. That's where his "shuttle system" comes in. His shuttle consists of the cloned KSHV in a Bacterial Artificial Chromosome (BAC), which is like an incubator that allows the virus to grow in bacteria. The BAC serves as a mini-transporter that shuttles the virus from the bacteria into human cells and vice versa. When the virus is in the bacteria, Dr. Gao can manipulate it. In a much quicker fashion than it took him to assemble it, he begins to disassemble the cloned KSHV, pulling its proteins, or genes, apart. Then he shuttles the mutated virus back into the human cells. Using the latest molecular biology technology, he watches closely to see how each gene reacts among the human cells, waiting for signs of infection and emergence of cancer cells.
With more than 90 genes in the KSHV to study, Dr. Gao has his work cut out for him. But he is persistent and won't quit until he discovers the combination of KSHV genes that causes cancer in human cells. Once he does, researchers across the country will be able to work on developing vaccines and drugs that target KSHV.
In essence, Dr. Gao is using a virus clone to attack and defeat itself — the recipe for an exciting science fiction novel — except that this scenario is real, with the potential to save thousands of lives.

I am interested in getting some new certifications in my field (IT) but I need financial help doing it. FAFSA doesn't cover them even though they cost almost as much as a quarter in school (including training and testing). Do you know any services which help cover the cost of certifications?

What Does "The Scarecrow" Tell Us About Chipotle?
By Elizabeth Weiss
Earlier this month, the Mexican-food chain Chipotle released an animated short called "The Scarecrow." The film opens on an overall-clad scarecrow with a burlap face and shiny black eyes who approaches a smoke-spewing building: Crow Foods Incorporated. Fiona Apple's mournful, menacing cover of "Pure Imagination" plays in the background while the Scarecrow goes about his workday. He watches as a tube extrudes a substance that's later labeled "100% Beef-ish"; a robotic crow injects a chicken with a green fluid that makes it expand like a balloon; and a cow with haunted eyes trembles inside a tight metal box.
At the end of the day, the Scarecrow returns home to his little farm, with its white fence and red barn. He seems beaten down by what he's seen, but when he picks a familiar red pepper, the lighting brightens and the music becomes happier: the Scarecrow has an idea. He harvests vegetables and travels to the city, where he opens a burrito stand. "Cultivate a Better World," instructs the banner that unfurls above his little operation. The message is something like this: Chipotle is not only tasty, it's virtuous.

ok exam but the question needed a lot of application!!!!!!!!!
June 15, 2012 at 2:06 pm
The exam was really testing knowledge and application as well. Long questions were really confusing. What was the manager supposed to do about this team leader who was performing exceptionally well but juss had some unpleasing manners which made other members request to leave.?????
June 15, 2012 at 4:45 pm
l think the manager is supposed to take the team leader and talk to him in private and start monitoring the changes.
June 15, 2012 at 5:27 pm
Was it still 50 Multiple Choice Questions?
June 15, 2012 at 6:06 pm
@chicazeez…. Yes, its still 50 multiple choice q's… You could be asked on anything..
June 15, 2012 at 6:15 pm
@mamo, i also thought like that but on the other side i had this that it might be a personality which is difficult to change…..Thank God I have passed
@chicazeez, Yes you are right..Multiple choice qns!June 15, 2012 at 7:06 pm
@tauraversatile… I pray this comin F3 shouldn't be a disaster like last dec
June 15, 2012 at 7:40 pm
@tauraversatile l cnt tell which which am praying that have passed to thats one disadva of paper based, lets hope f2 wont screw me up.
June 15, 2012 at 8:08 pm
@ chicazeez ..honestly speaking, Dec exams were a disaster and a bunch of pple have bn repeating as a result of dec disaster! It seems to be approachable this time< Lets wait and
@mamo, you are right!June 16, 2012 at 4:55 pm
may i know about what the question come out? ^^
June 16, 2012 at 6:57 pm
hey i think the exam was ok but some of the question was confusing i also think the manager should have talked to his employee in private. anyone no the answer to the group question storming etc. i really hope i passed
June 17, 2012 at 9:56 am
The questions required too much thought (in my opinion), and some were kinda too long and somewhat confusing for multiple choice. Remember we only get 2.5 minutes max on a question. Question 5 (not sure if its 5) was excessively long just for you to figure out who was talking about a competency framework.
The question about the team member who was doing well but had a bad attitude towards his colleagues; I think the answer is for the supervisor to speak to him in private. This is because the question did not say that he was spoken to b4 in regards to his attitude and something like this usually require a verbal warning first.
The other question about the group; I had initially chosen performing but then I changed my answer to norming after I re-read the question.
overall I didn't like this paper.
June 17, 2012 at 2:20 pm
for the group question i have performing and can someone tell me the answer for the competency question still don't know what it is.
June 17, 2012 at 2:23 pm
i had the guy who had to have his supervisor sign off on his work. what he described fit more with competency, i think.
June 17, 2012 at 5:06 pm
well! generally, everything was ok but the long questions didn't allow to revise all my answers. but insha'Allah e go bee!!
June 18, 2012 at 3:34 am
can any1 tell me the answer regarding "unemployment"?da question wz smthn like "wrong timing,wrong place" is it structural/seasonal?
June 18, 2012 at 7:40 am
based on the book, its frictional lol but that's not the answer i chose.

The calculation of health benefits from vaccine use for each condition under study is a multistep process. The steps are listed in Box 5–1 and are described in the sections that follow.
For each condition studied, the committee, with the advice of outside experts, developed morbidity scenarios to describe the characteristic sequences of acute or chronic health states, the duration of each health state, and the proportion of persons with the condition who experience each scenario. The scenarios also capture the premature mortality associated with a condition but which is delayed 1 or more years beyond the onset of the condition. For most of the conditions included in the committee's analysis, several scenarios were required to depict the associated morbidity.
Some pathogens or conditions affect specific subpopulations in distinctive ways. For example, the consequences of infection with chlamydia, a sexually transmitted disease, are very different in men and women. For those conditions, separate morbidity scenarios were defined for each appropriate subpopulation. The subpopulation analyses were combined in the final stages of the calculation of the cost-effectiveness ratio.
Once the morbidity scenarios were developed, the committee reviewed each health state and assigned a level in each of the seven attributes of HUI Mark II. To better reflect the range of morbidity represented by some health states, the committee estimated the proportion of cases of illness that should be assigned to each level of a specific health utility attribute. The preference score for the attri bute was calculated as a weighted average of the scores for each level. The quality-adjustment weight for the health state was obtained by combining the scores for each attribute according to Equation 4. The calculations were performed using an Excel spreadsheet template.
The quality-adjustment weights for each condition's morbidity scenarios (described above) were used to measure QALYs without the vaccine intervention. Quality-adjustment weights reflecting the average health status of the

Tips on packing for a baby
Jump to story list
First published 5th July, 2009
Travelling with a baby or toddler in Southeast Asia can be very different to what you might be used to. That said, with a bit of thought and some sensible packing, the hassles can be reduced and both you and the bub will get more out of the trip. This is part one of a ten-part series on travelling with children in Southeast Asia. A new story will appear on Travelfish every Monday with a new installment.
Travelling with children brings a new set of challenges -- and benefits -- to your travels. Over the last two and a half years we've experienced this firsthand as we started travelling with one, then two toddlers. It is different to travelling solo, that is for sure. We find a lot more thought goes into issues like transportation and accommodation and even things like packing take on new meaning. Keeping that in mind, here are ten packing tips if you're travelling with a baby or toddler. Got your own tips? Please chime in with them at the end of the story, or on the Travelfish forum.
Nappies are no biggie
Landfill space is rapidly dwindling in many parts of Southeast Asia and laundry is cheap -- so it is certainly possible to travel with reusable nappies. Do keep using them if they're your thing, so long as you have plenty to last between loads and your itinerary includes making stops long enough in plenty of places to do laundry (or rather, get it done by someone else). We used the Mothercare smart nappy system and were happy with it. If you prefer disposables, the advantage of taking as many of your own as possible from home is you'll have plenty of space for your shopping on your return. It's easy to buy locally produced disposable nappies in major Southeast Asian cities and often cheaper than in the West. Opinion differs as to which kind are better. We have found that local nappies are just as good, but they take up a little more room in your bag. Mamy Poko is a good brand.
Take your own formula
Formula is widely available (pushed, even, in Southeast Asian hospitals), but you are unlikely to find precisely the same brand you are used to. Bring at least some of your own if you want to try transitioning from one brand to another during a long trip, or enough for all of your trip if you don't want to risk it.
Take your own cereal
If your bub is weaning, you may want to take your own cereal, particularly if you or your bub are fussy. You can get various kinds of cereal at supermarkets in most cities, but it can be difficult to work out precisely what you're getting so to play it safe, do take your own. Fancy organic brands are a lot harder if not impossible to find outside of major centres like Bangkok and Singapore.
Take a soap/shampoo combo
Use a two-in-one so you can scrub bub and hair all in one. You can get a Johnson's version across Asia. Indeed, you may as well use it as your soap as well and just jump in the shower with bub.
Milton is marvellous
Take Milton tablets for sterilising dummies, bottles, spoons and whatever else gets grubby. Pack an adjustable plug and make sure you have one item whose volume you know to measure out water into bathroom sinks, if you think they are clean enough to use. Use something like a plate to ensure items are totally covered by the liquid – chances are you could borrow one from your hotel's restaurant. Take a plastic container big enough to douse the stuff you're travelling with if you have the space, else a sturdy plastic (non-leaking) bag will suffice.
Take a stick food processor
If your bub is only just onto solids, this may seem extravagant but can come in really handy when you just can't face explaining what you need done to a dumbfounded waitress one more time. We use the Kenwood Wizzard HB665 and have been very happy with it. Make sure you pick up a power plug adaptor once you're in Asia.
Extra T-shirts for yourself
You'll no doubt pack extra outfits for bub in case they have any accidents... but don't forget about yourself. You may run through your shirts more quickly if you have a spate of accidents, so first thing once you're off the plane, pick up a few extra ones and always have at least one within easy reach. Don't forget T-shirts will be far cheaper in Asia than your home country.
Car seats are up to you, but slings are great
If you plan to travel by car, remember that most cars do not have seatbelts in the back seat in Southeast Asia -- without a seatbelt a bulky car seat is useless. Often you can arrange for one, but this may take time that you don't have (or weren't expecting to need). So either plan to travel mostly in other ways or be prepared to wear your child in a sling in the back seat behind the driver. Hey, at least you're not on a motorbike with them. We've used a Baby Bjorn for all of our travels with a baby and have found it fabulous -- it's really not as uncomfortable as it looks.
Leave the stroller at home
Spending on footpaths has not been a high priority for most governments in Southeast Asia. In fact, it's possible they don't even know what footpaths are. Outside of Singapore (which is a pramster's delight), you would mainly only use a pram in malls in Bangkok; forget Hanoi, Phnom Penh and Vientiane. For getting tiny bubs to sleep, a sling may be easier if you don't mind carrying the weight. There's also a range of child carries designed with travellers in mind -- the Kelty child carrier is a good example.
Don't hesitate to ask for help
It sounds like a cliche, but we've found locals across Southeast Asia to be especially helpful and understanding when it comes to travelling with babies. Be it getting the waiter to go the extra mile mushing up some mushables or people just stepping forward to help out -- we've always found Asia to be a far more welcoming environment to kids than our home country. If you're starting to fray, take refuge in a shady cafe and relax -- after all it is your holiday too! Just don't be surprised when the staff lend a helping hand -- often even taking the little terror off your hands for a while.

Take your time to be honest is a little more work that what I expect at first. I have to take my time getting all the fruit and veggies cut in small / medium pieces, no space for big pieces of carrots but not a deal breaker // the other thing is the cleaning ... Isn't a fast drink to go, you have to take your time to put the pieces of the juicer apart and wash everything ( with a brush include in the box ) Is kinda the same time I spend in a store getting a green juice / made to order / the big difference is in the money $$$$$ at the store my large juice is $*.** - at home with $** dlls I made almost 4 large drinks and still have some veggies for dinner / so far really good

Great, Easy to Use Juicer This was my first 'real' juicer when I decided to try juicing for health. I've used it several times and it works flawlessly. Grinds anything I throw in it with ease, including greens and soft fruits like kiwi. It is also incredibly easy to take apart and clean. I can disassemble, clean, and reassemble in less than 10 minutes! It takes up on a small footprint. and as an added bonus, the bright polished chrome looks really nice on my counter top. I look forward to many years of use with this machine. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-quality juicer, this one is well worth every penny.

Well Worth It!!! This juicer is awesome! Received about a week after purchase, and was instantly amazed. The product looks great is definitely a heavy, good quality juicer, and comes with all the attachments, and instructions you will ever need! I have already juiced a number of times, made hummus, pasta, and nut butter with this juicer and all came out perfectly! My only complaint is that the catch containers should have been made with a pour spout. But the pulp comes out really dry! Not to mention, this juicer grinds the smallest and finest of fruits and veggies, almost no heat transfer. It definitely produces a high quality, nutritious juice. I have lost 8 lbs now that I am juicing, I cant believe it! Love this juicer, and am assured it was worth the money with the 15 year warranty. You cant beat that!

Great Juicer I recently bought this juicer after extensive research on masticating juicers-- and I love it. The juicer squeezes every last drop of moisture from the vegetables I use, and it is spectacularly easy to clean. The only reason that I give it 4 stars, rather than 5, is that you have to cut the veggie and fruit into small pieces in order to run through the masticator. However, the ease of cleaning more than makes up for the lengthy preparation time.

Works Great! Love this juicer, very fast and easy to clean. I was concerned because of some of the reviews on other websites about the plastic on the auger shaving off but I have not had any problems like that at all. I have used other juicers and I get much more juice out of my vegetables using this juicer especially when juicing greens.

I've bought two of them! I was so happy with this juicer that I bought one for my daughter and she loves hers too! I would recommend anyone considering this juicer to look up youtube videos that show you how easy it is to use and clean. It really does squeeze all the juice out of whatever fruit or vegetable that you put into it and the outcome is superbly delicious. I'm very happy with my purchase(s).

This juicer comes with everything you see in the picture, plus attachments so you can make different pasta shapes. It can also grind coffee and nuts, but I have no experience with those yet.

Is this product dual voltage?
This appliance is not a dual voltage machine but only runs on 110. If you need it to run on a different voltage say in a different country then we do carry voltage and watt converters to accommodate the difference overseas. Thank you for shopping Overstock.com.
No it's not dual voltage, it runs on 110 volt not 220. If you are in a different country you can buy a transformer to transfer the 220 volts to 110. Taiwan has 110 and 220 volts so we can use any machine without any problem.

Hello, what exactly is the difference between the "Omega J8006 Grey Dual-stage Juicer" and the "Omega J8006 Nutrition Center Commercial Masticating Juicer"?
Hello goteamventure, From what I can see they are the same item. Sometimes we get the same item from different venders so the price is slightly different same with the name. Thank you for shopping with us!
You are offering two versions of the Omega J8006 juicer one in grey and one in stainless steel. My understanding is that Omega warrantees it's juicers for 15 years - why do you list the stainless steel version as having only a 10 year warranty ?
Hello jewishsky, You are correct this should say 15 year warranty. I will have that corrected. Thank you for shopping with us!
Do all of the attachments (pasta, food processing, baby food, blank, etc.) come with this or does it need to be purchased separately?

Shopping Guides
How to Buy a Juicer
A juicer is a convenient appliance for a healthy lifestyle. A home juicer makes it fast and easy to get all your recommended servings of fruits and vegetables each day in one delicious beverage. Purchasing a juicer that fits your lifestyle is the most important factor when choosing a juicer. If you're not sure which type of juicer will fit your lifestyle the best, check out the following information to help narrow down your search.
How to Choose the Right Daily Vitamins
If you're eating right but still feeling unhealthy, you may want to add vitamins to your diet. Daily vitamins can help you make up for minor deficiencies in your diet that could be detrimental to your health. When you want to make sure your body is healthy, take daily vitamins based on your personal needs. Here's what to look for in a multivitamin and how to choose the right ones.
How to Build Your Emergency Food and Water Storage
Assembling your own emergency food and water storage is a simple precaution to take when preparing for unexpected events. FEMA suggests that you consider trying to store 14 days' worth of supplies, but most professionals think a three-day supply can suffice for an immediate response kit. With a little bit of foresight and periodic maintenance, you can easily build and maintain a basic disaster supplies kit. Here is some information about which foods to choose and how best to store them.
Unique Faucet Designs
Sometimes it seems like faucets don't vary much. Ninety-five percent of the kitchen and bath faucets you see are basic sink-mounted, single-spout designs with one lever or two knobs. These vary in terms of finish and embellishment, but, essentially, these designs are all variations on a single theme. These kinds of faucets make great complements to a wide range of kitchen and bath decor. However, sometimes, you may want a faucet that's unique, that departs from the norm and becomes a centerpiece for or makes a specific statement about your kitchen or bath. Maybe you want a faucet that performs a specific function that the usual faucets do not. If you're looking for that kind of faucet, keep reading. We've compiled a list of four unique faucet designs, one of which may be just what you're looking for.
How to Clean Bed Comforters
Bed comforters are notoriously difficult to clean at home because of their bulk and weight. Most bed comforters are quilted and drop at least 15 inches over the sides and foot of the bed. These should be cleaned thoroughly once every three months, and large comforters may need to be dry-cleaned. However, many comforter sets can be cleaned at home if you have the right equipment. Take a look below to learn how to clean bed comforters.

The 29-year-old forward is set to fill the vacancy at Vicarage Road created by England World Cup winner Richard Hill's retirement.
The highly-rated Van Heerden has won 14 caps for South Africa, including six appearances during their World Cup-winning campaign last autumn, two of those against England at Stade de France.
The Pretoria-based Bulls say Van Heerden will link up with Saracens in November after completing an existing two-year contract.
Bulls' business and communication manager Ian Schwartz paid a glowing tribute to the Johannesburg-born flanker.
"When he signed with us at the end of 2006, he indicated that he wanted to play for the Bulls for two years, after which he would like to further his career in Europe," Schwartz told the Bulls' official website. "We did, however, try to keep Wikus at Loftus Versfeld.
"He has awe-inspiring in 2007, and is one of a handful of players who has a Super 14 as well as a World Cup (winners') medal.
"He continued his good form in the 2008 Super 14, and it will be very difficult for the national selectors to ignore him.
"Wikus is an unbelievable team player, leader, thinker and the perfect example for younger players as to what it means to be professional.
"We wish him all the best for the future, and we know that success with be inevitable at Saracens. Our loss is their gain."
European Cup semi-finalists Saracens have already recruited current England captain Steve Borthwick from Bath for next season, in addition to Wales international forward Michael Owen.

Rockets Look Impressive in First Game, Win 105-96
The Beardsanity era started off with a bang. After only one game, it looks like James Harden of the Rockets could be worth every penny of the 5 year/ $80 million contract he signed just hours before he put up 37 points on 14/25 shooting, as well as 12 assists and 6 rebounds. Jeremy Lin also played well with 12 points, 8 assists, and 4 steals, but his time on the bench spoke volumes about his importance to the Rockets. The Rockets were on a 10-0 run in the 2nd half to take the lead at 65-58. The Pistons responded with a 13-0 run of their own to take the lead back to 71-65. Jeremy Lin was in foul trouble during this 13-0 run and the offense couldn't get going without him. Trailing 81-72 to start the 4th quarter, the Rockets went on a tear during Lin's return with clutch 3-pointers from Carlos Delfino and James Harden, as well as a couple of crucial dunks from Greg Smith. Carlos Delfino finished with 4 3-pointers and 15 points.
